I ordered my true size and although I am "super blessed" along my chest-this dress fell exactly where it needed to. It's not too low, nor is it too high in the bust area. My seamstress even noticed it fell exactly right for me because we usually have to tack v-necks dresses. I'm short, so I decided to just hem the lining and not touch the silk chiffon (my seamstress was impressed and happy she didn't have to do that)! I'm adding my signature to this fabulous dress. There were so many colors and sizes to choose from. I think this is a great dress for the price. I can't wait to pick it up from my seamstress...
I bought this dress for my brother's wedding. It packed nicely for the trip, very few wrinkles. It is true to size and the Amethyst color is gorgeous. I received many compliments. The dress shows your figure in the best way and it's comfortable to dance in for hours!
As others have posted, the gray ridge color is much more of a lilac than a gray. The dress is very pretty - I was between sizes and found that the smaller size fit better. It also has a fairly large bust.
This dress is very persnickety on top and all pregnanty looking below the ribs, many more measurements need to be provided in this listing to obtain an appropriate fit.
Rib cage. Rib cage. Rib cage. That is where this dress is tightest and has ZERO give so you must buy this dress based on your ribs first. Of course, no measurement for the ribs is provided, and the guidance to buy on bust size is worthless.
I bought the size that fit my bust, but had a monstrous struggle zipping the darn thing up over my ribs and couldn't breathe or bend over comfortably with it on. If I jumped, the ladies could pop out of the overly loose drape - yuck. And the straps dropped off my shoulders pretty easily when I reached down to put a shoe on.
The tight center twist is also positioned perfectly over the top of where a little baby bulge would be... so with a few extra pounds on at the moment this made me look about 4-5 months along. Not good.
After a brief glimpse into my second trimester self the poor quality of this dress became a rather moot point: the tight and straight liner was unexpected under a flowly skirt and it's sheer enough to require a slip.
If you're a slim or pear shape this may be a better dress for you, as an hourglass this freakshow-baby-bump-giver cannot go back fast enough.
