The Federal Trade Commission makes sure that brides know what is legally required to be identified on a wedding gown. Some stores rip off manufacturer’s tags so that you can’t try on a dress and then order it elsewhere, such as the popular online discounters. Tag ripping is not entirely illegal, since the store can replace the label with one of their own as long as they supply four pieces of information: one business in the distribution channel (e.g. the store name, so they don’t have to tell you who made it), fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions.
