RA535810550CN Waiting since it shipped on the 12th of August.. has it shipped?

I ordered a dress from China. I was told it was shipped on August 12, 2012. I called the post office here in the US, and they said it was in China still. Or that it might be in the US. EMS doesn't have any information on it, and USPS says that Origin Post is preparing to dispatch... so.. wondering where it's going..
