Proselegant, classic, high quality
ConsRegular
I ordered this gown after trying on a few strapless, sweetheart, trumpet gowns that I liked. I am 5'5 and 112lbs, I ordered a size 2, and this dress would be perfect if I were 2 inches taller and 10 pounds heavier. I have an average sized bust, but the bustier in this was nearly the same bulk as my breasts. The trumpet at the bottom definitely accentuates curves, but it's simply overwhelming on a small framed person. In other words, it wasn't worth altering.
It's not my dress, but, the fabric was gorgeous, and the quality was great. It just may be *your* dress, but you might need to be slightly more Amazonian than me to pull it off.

Structure of Dress Shows

Dress is gorgeous. Sweetheart neck and a great small train that is very elegant. The fit is perfect for me as well as I am 5'10", 130 lbs. I was; however, disappointed in the fabric. It is a matte fabric that almost looks like a cotton fabric when you put it on. And, all the structural components around the bodice and hips show through the fabric which is not flattering.
Great in theory - the execution of it in the fabric put it on my "no" list.

Gorgeous, but order SMALLER!

Prosclassic, elegant, curvaceous
ConsRegular
My bust size is a 34D (mainstream sizes) and 30DDD (proper sizes), so I ordered the 10, because they said to order UP if you're in between sizes. Well, I took it back because it was a tent and got the 8, still too big. Now I have the 6 and I'm still afraid it might be too big and I might need the 4! Seriously, order 2-3 inches down from your bust or hip measurements (whatever is the biggest measurement), this thing runs HUGE and is made to be taken in. It is, however, an absolutely gorgeous gown and I cannot wait to see what it looks like when I get it taken in!

Beautiful dress

I bought this dress online. While the cut/shape are flattering, the dress seems to have some structural issues. The fabric around the bust doesn't quite lay flat and produces a cottage-cheese effect. I'm going to take it to my nordstrom's alterations dept to see if it can be saved, because it is a great dress otherwise.
Also, the dress runs a tad big. I ordered a size a couple inches too small and it fits fine.
