I don't know for certain, but I think Jane BonBon has stopped making dresses.

Yeah I assumed it must be something like that, but I didn't know if she had stopped for good or was just taking a break. I had a look at her livejournal but it's not been updates for about a year. I felt a bit like a stalker though!

It's a bit out of my price range so I've never bought anything, but I've been drooling for a while: http://www.etsy.com/shop/jibrionline

can't say enough good things about Liron --
http://www.etsy.com/shop/Lirola

i had a dress made by these guys too -- the dress didn't work out for me, but they were super great communicators and the product they sent was stellar (they were also very accomodating about the particular issue and resolved very fairly)

The problem with Liron is that the biggest bust she'll work with, according to her listings, is 50", which isn't all that big. Many of her designs she will only make available as big as 43", which is not very big at all.

convo her -- she'll work with you to get the right fit. she has lots of plus size customers (she was actually surprised when the readings for my relatively-smaller armholes seemed off-balance with her experience of sewing larger sizes).

My favorite etsy seller of the moment is hissyfitoly. She's a pleasure to work with for custom stuff. She makes vintage inspired clothes in vintage fabric. And she has stuff in her shop ready to ship in sizes up to sz. 26/28. I'm sure she'd be up for making larger sizes too, because as I said, she's great with the custom stuff.

And I really wish I was bold enough to buy and wear one of her custom uterus skirts.

I just bought one and can't wait to get it! I will be stomping around New York City in it. :)
