Wanted to wear this to my step-daughter's beach wedding. It just didn't have the pizazz I'm looking for... it was ok, but not really right for the occasion. I'm a size 10-12 and it looked better in the catalog/on the web.

My bridesmaid gave me the wrong size and it had to be taken in ALOT, but it appeared to fit bigger than the size I ordered too. The colour and style were great. My bridemaid is tall fit a fairly straight shaped body. I suited her body type quite well. She likes it and plans to wear it again.

Loved it and wore it to a wedding, lots of compliments and no ironing needed after coming out of a suitcase!!!! It was a hit!!!!

simple non fussy design that i could wear to a special occasion. but i have wide hips and narrow shoulders and small bust so the dress is too big up top and barely hugs too much on the bottom. dress may work for someone who is more proportionate or curvy. definitely a dress to try on in the dressing room

I actually purchased the full length version of this in brown in a petite and love it. The fit was much better for me primarily because I am only 5'1". This truly is meant for a taller woman. But even if I had been taller, I believe it would have been too big in the bust and it shouldn't have been according to the sizing. The color was more of a pale peach than the pinkish shade it looks to be(to me anyway)but it's still pretty a pretty color. Also..very sheer. A slip is necessary.

Bargain Shopper
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I bought this dress in ivory for my sisters who are bridesmaids in my wedding as a last resort, and I was running out of time to find dresses. I wish I would have saved the headache of finding dresses by just ordering these dresses to begin with! They are absolutely gorgeous, and they fit well for two very different body types. I am so pleased with these dresses.

I ordered the short version of this dress in pink in size 14 because I have the long version in black in that size. Love it! However, the short version in 14 was too large and needed to be exchanged. I am awaiting the arrival of the size 12 dress.
