Question 9

How can I ensure my Maggie Sottero gown is authentic?

Accepted Answer

We can only guarantee the authenticity of a Maggie Sottero Designs gown if it has been purchased from one of our Authorized Retailers (Check the Store Locator on our website to find an Authorized Retailer near you). Purchasing a gown from unauthorized sources, online or otherwise, may involve certain risks including copies, counterfeits, or knock-off gowns. Here are a few things to consider:

Check the Advertised Price – If the price of a gown that is labeled as Maggie Sottero Designs is significantly below the prices prevailing in the market, it’s likely the dress is not authentic.

Look at Pictures – Many manufacturers forbid the use of their photos on unauthorized sites. If a site you’re looking at has strange imagery, blurry resolution, or models with cropped heads, you may be on a counterfeit site.

Contact Information – Check the “About Us” or “FAQ” section of the website you’re on. Look to see where the company is based. If they’re an Authorized Retailer, the store information on their website will match the store information on our Store Locator.

Be Careful Purchasing Second-Hand - If you find a Maggie Sottero wedding dress on a second-hand gown website, be aware that the gowns you're looking at have likely been altered and may not meet our standards for fit and quality! It may be authentic Maggie Sottero, but you likely aren't getting what you tried on at the boutique!"

Question 11

Can I purchase extra fabric, beading, or other materials for my alterations process?

Accepted Answer

Great question! To explore your options for additional material, please work closely with your boutique. As we design and manufacture wedding gowns sold through independently owned shops, all requests must be made through an Authorized Retailer. If you contact the boutique you purchased your dress from, they may be able to place an order for matching or similar details or assist you in sourcing external options. With their help, you can navigate this process with the most up-to-date information available to add the finishing details to your wedding dress.

How does Maggie Sottero protect my privacy?

Accepted Answer

We got your back! We ONLY use your personal data when the law allows us to and we follow all GDPR and CCPA regulations. You can read our full Privacy Policy here for more information.

Question 16

Will my wedding dress order have a tariff charge?

Accepted Answer

At Maggie Sottero, we have a talented team of designers based in the U.S. who bring each gown to life through thoughtful, original design. While our gowns are designed stateside, they are manufactured in China through trusted partners we’ve worked with for over 25 years.

Due to recent changes in international trade policies, some wedding gown shipments are subject to tariff charges. These are determined by government regulations. At this time, these tariffs only affect orders being shipped to the United States.

That being said, our gowns are exclusively sold through independently owned bridal boutiques, who set their own pricing based on local market conditions including how tariffs may impact costs.

We encourage our partners to price gowns fairly and competitively, and they’re eager to help you find your dream dress at the right price!

For any questions about pricing, payment options, or your specific order, we recommend reaching out directly to your boutique. You can find your nearest Authorized Boutique here: https://www.maggiesottero.com/find-a-store

While the future of these tariffs is uncertain and not something we can easily predict or plan for, please know that we are monitoring the situation closely every day. Rest assured, the process of getting your gown will be as smooth as possible so you can breathe easy and focus on your beautiful wedding day.
