    Bella Question

    Has anyone tried just sending her money with a note saying what you want and shipping address, and waited? Someone suggested I do that since she doesn't answer my emails nor do I have a valid password anymore, but I'm worried it will get buried among the orders she receives through email..

    A friend of mine does that.

    She just sends an email saying which color and style skirt she wants and she gets what she gets! I'm not sure how she handles deposit/payment, but the system works for her.

    I assume she accounts for the shipping charges when she sends it, right? Because that's near $100 sometimes..

    When I emailed through my first (and only!) custom order I gave Bella my absolute budget i.e. how much I wanted to pay including postage, and asked her to create something within that particular price range... it worked out better than I could have imagined!

    Once you're in London, you can take the Eurostar to Belgium and go straight to her shop in Gent! Much easier and more fun than trying to order by email.

    You can also custom order from the shop in Gent, IIRC. Just in case you don't see something you want to take home.

    Yep!
    Belgian personal shopper here! LOL

    We sometimes go to the shop in Ghent, once my friend liked something and bought the costume in the shop itself, other times (usually) dancers just custom order.
    Bella is not in the shop herself, its her husband (I think) and when you discuss your costume, he sometimes just calls her to ask if its possible

    Just let us know when you would like to go :p
