I plan to wear this dress as my informal wedding gown. It's flattering and very comfortable although it is very long and will need to be altered. I knew this, however, when I bought it based on the comments. Even with the highest heels it would be too long for even a tall girl.

I loved the dress but it was heavier than I expected. I planned to wear it to get married in Puerto Rico but it was too heavy. I am 5'8" and it was very long on me. It is a beautiful dress and I would love to have worn it but I need to send it back.

This is a lovely design that reminds me of something I'd see in a classic old movie. I plan to use it as my wedding dress. However, as other reviews stated, it is very long. I am 5'10" and will need to have it altered, even though I'll be wearing 2" heels. Otherwise, I love it

I really liked the overall look of this dress and planned on wearing it for a summer wedding, but it's way too long. I could have it altered, but I don't want to see someone take scissors to it. I'm average, 5'5". I saw the comments that others found it too long, but I thought I'd try it anyway. They were right. It is of incredible quality though.

The dress was absolutely gorgeous. Just didn't fit me right in the waist area and I wear the same size in all other dresses. Loved the fabric and it was very elegant looking just like in the catalog. It was also almost a foot too long and I am 5'5" and weigh 140 wear a size 12. I love your catalog and clothes and will order again!!

I was so thrilled when I found this dress for my daughter to get married in. However it didn't fit- if only there had been one size bigger.
So, we very gently packed it to return and hope someone else can buy it and like it as much as we did.

My teenage daughter needed a long white gown for graduation. This is a beautiful, stylish gown. The fabric is heavy and elegant. The design of the gown though was overly complicated for a teenager, but would be a spectaular wedding dress.

I bought this dress to wear at my wedding because I wanted something that I couldn't find at wedding boutiques and I saw this and it was the style I was looking for. When I got it, I noticed that this dress is made way too long. I am 5'5, which is pretty average height and even with 3 inch heels this dress still drags the ground by about 4-5 inches. I'd say that if you are under 5'10, this dress is going to be way too long and you will have to get it altered before wearing, so make sure you've got the time before your event.
