Find Look-A-Likes
 
So, a friend of mine saw this dress she really liked. [ http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/6194/dressje0.jpg if you want to know]. Now, her budget is under $100, and there is very little chance that she'll be able to find it around where she lives (Canada doesn't even have Hot Topics. At least, none that I've ever seen).

Do you guys know of anywhere to find look-a-like dresses like these, or something similar, for under a $100, that delivers to Canada? More so, I've got a few general things in mind that I've seen from movies and I'd like to mess around with, and was wondering if there were any "Look-a-like finder" sites that you knew?

Since I'm fashionly retarded, I'm really new as to where to look. Any ideas as to where I could look for this would be great. Google doesn't seem to be helping me here.

Any help is appreciated, Splintered.

Amy Lee designs her own clothes and pays someone to make them for her. (heard this in an interview when she was asked about all of her dresses).

I think you'll be hard pressed to find that exact one, but anyone with a creative spark and a sewing machine could make it. Or, your friend could buy something that looks similar and just do some modifications.

I used the old pictures when my grandmother and I made a replica of Audrey Hepburn's ball gown from "Sabrina". It's tough to use just pictures, but sometimes you can find patterns online. You can modify similar designs if they don't have the exact dress pattern.

This is easy...

What you'll need is a fishnet shirt -10 bucks

Sheer black skirt -could vary
Black skirt - could vary
Cheap lace up corset online such as *gag* hot topic.

Take the sheet skirt and the black skirt and shred em up.
