Of all the gowns I considered to wear at my son's wedding, this one is my favorite. The delicate lace sleeves, shirring, and graceful empire design is reminiscent of my own 1978 wedding dress, as well as my grandmother's 1914 wedding dress! In champagne, this dress has an authentic "retro" feel that is classically appealing.

I bought this dress for my stepson's wedding. Show up, shut up and wear beige. I looked everywhere for a dress with sleeves that did not look like the typical mother of the bride jacket with long dress or a prom dress for a 16 year old. I am thrilled to have found this! I know I will be comfortable and stylish in this dress. My husband already loves it.

I will wear this dress to my son's wedding. I'm glad I ordered it 2 sizes too big. If I hadn't, the sleeves would be too tight. I am a size 6P-8P, and I ordered a size 12P. I may have to have it taken in around the waist. Otherwise the dress is very flattering and lovely. I don't like the seam in the front of the bodice.

I ws dissapointed with the overall quality of the garment. I afraid the zipper is going to break off before I even have a chance to wear it for the special occasion.

Too small in bust area, those with larger busts will not fit. Has a frayed-looking scalloped edge around neckline - not attractive. Color was not as pictured. It was a very FLAT beige color.

I ordered this dress for my daughter's wedding. I ordered a 10P using the sizing chart and it was a perfect fit. The only thing I may change is the length from floor length to tea length as I am only 5'2" and I think that would be a more flattering length for a shorter person. I love the 3/4 sleeves and the lace bodice with scalloped sweetheart neckline. Very comfortable fit.

I purchased this dress for my upcoming wedding in Las Vegas - I wanted something dressy but simple. The color is what I was looking for and the dress seems very comfortable- the lace is soft and not scratchy which was a concern when I ordered. I chose to go with a petite size since I am 5'4", the length seems just about perfect- I won't need to have any alterations done.
Pretty, but of inferior quality

This is my second wedding and I wanted something "not white" and still fancy. The color is perfect and this was a gorgeous dress at our small ceremony. I could also see this dress being worn to a special occasion.

The quality is not as nice as I thought. The material is very thin. I would prefer a heavier lining underneath so I don't have to wear a slip.
Other than that, the dress is beautiful. It looks better than I expected. I would sacrifice the quality for the style and look of the dress since it is a special occasion and I won't wear it often.

I will wear this dress to my daughter's wedding. So many mother of the bride dresses look frumpy. This dress is anything but fumpy. Thank you for carrying petite sizes, which are so hard to find.
