Absolutely gorgeous ?I am 5’2” tall I have to have a foot and a half taken off the length of this dress the bust portion is a bit small the mid waist is perfect not bad for the price point I am 228 pounds But I put in for 230-235 poundsI ordered this dress in a size 20 and in color ivory. I was having a private island wedding and planned to order something simple and beachy. As I was searching on Amazon and came across more traditional wedding dresses I decided why not order one just so I can say I tried one on. Lol. Aside from this dress, I ordered about 6 other casual dresses that I had really anticipated liking. This dress was the first to arrive and I tried it on with ZERO expectations of loving or choosing it, however, I completely fell in love with it. The dress came with a veil and also gloves, which I didn't use. I felt like the dress was very elegant and adding anything else would have been over the top for me.. The dress has a built in bra, so you aren't supposed to wear one, however I chose to wear a strapless. I wear a D cup, yet it was a little big in the chest. You could see my bra a bit from the back because obviously parts of the lace is sheer, but I didn't care because it was my day, plus I'd rather have the girls where they belong. The waist was like a bodice and really helped shape and support me. The buttoned back has a hidden zipper, so no worries about actually having to button or unbutton. The dress is very long and train-like. It has numerous layers and the material is great quality. I had to tramp through the woods to get to the cliff-like rocks we were married on and the dress held up perfectly. I also wore tennis shoes because I it had rained the day before and I didn't want to risk slipping on wet rocks or mud.. the dress totally hid my shoe's. I got so many compliments on this dress and ya best believe I bragged about only having spent $150. I would definitely choose this dress again and recommend it to others as well.The dress was beautiful! Everything little detail was perfect! Too bad I had to return it because the groom wasn’t !Size up. The shoulders fit very awkwardly, I'm a 22 and got a 24 and it was still to small in the waist, pretty dress but you could tell up close it was kinda cheaply madeI absolutely adore this dress and was ecstatic about the price! I ordered a size 26 previously and found it to be a little snug and I was unable to zip it completely. I became worried and wanted to order the next size up just in case I couldn’t fit into it by my wedding date. I reordered this same dress except in a 28 the second time around. I received a message from the seller asking me to take measurements to ensure the dress would fit. I measured per their directions and sent the measurements to them. I received a reply stating that my measurements were wrong because “normally waist is not bigger than the bust, please retake measurements” I replied stating I took the measurements as directed (sorry I have a belly and not enough boobs). I then wrote and explained that I just needed the next size up, as ordered, as I had previously ordered the next size down and it fit perfectly except for being unable to zip it comfortably. I paid for expedited shipping to ensure it would arrive in time. When it arrived I was excited to try it on as I was sure this one would fit. I was disappointed when I tried it on and realized it fit the exact same as the 26 I had previously ordered. Now left with 3 weeks before my wedding I had to struggle to find a seamstress who could fix it for me in time for my wedding. It is a beautiful dress but I will definitely be returning the second one.This dress is absolutely gorgeous!! I am a heavier gal and struggled to find something nice and this was better than I expected!! The arms ended up being a little too small so I had them removed. It does say you may need further alterations but I didn't have time. I almost didn't receive it on time but that was NOT the seller's fault!! I'm very pleased with the purchase and will recommend to others!!I received this dress today. It's for my daughter. It fits perfect. We did send in measurents. The customer service is excellent. We had a death in the family while trying to make sure we did the measurements right, the company was very understanding and waited a week for us to send the measurements again. I highly recommend this company. The dress looks first rate and is beautiful. The pictures are straight out of the package.
