This dress was perfect for my bridal shower. Here I am with my brother.

I would say if you're a 14, just go ahead and order a size 16 - it fit me perfectly. And don't forget a little body tape at the shoulder so you don't have to worry about your sleeves falling down all the time! Otherwise, perfection

Elegant for Easter High Tea in Beverly Hills CA

I wore this to tea at The Peninsula in BH. I got endless compliments and questions about the dress. The embroidery is exquisite quality and the fit of the dress was appropriately sexy but extremely classy. The colors are perfect for spring. One of my favorites I've ever worn!

Beautiful Dress

I loved the fit of this dress - it really hugged my body. The zipper was REALLY hard to zip even though the dress fit perfectly. I would recommend to others with pear-shaped bodies & need something formal but not a gown.

Perfect dress for my garden party bridal shower.

Absolutely beautiful. It fit me perfectly but I am very glad I ordered an extra, smaller size. I ended up wearing the size 2, even though I usually wear a size 4.

Unforgettable

Seriously gorgeous dress I didn't want to take off. I loved it and felt like a true duchess. It fit like a glove and was incredibly flattering. I went braless with the dress and still had great cleavage because of the material and cut of the dress. I still think about this dress regularly and would love to rent it again.

Perfect princess bridal shower dress!

Wore to my woodland creature/ fairytale themed bridal shower and felt like a could sing to the birds! I wore a 0. I'm 113 pounds, 32DD or 30DDD, waist 27", hips 35" and no butt (hah!) It fit my waist perfectly! I tried to wear without a bra and it was almost supportive enough but you could tell one boob is way bigger lol so I decided to wear one and I actually think it made my lopsided-ness worse but oh well. If you are smaller chested you might want to size down/ need pads- roomy in the chest!

Southern Belle

Absolutely gorgeous dress, but runs small. I'm a 16W/18 in other brands. The 18 was too small, so I sized up to 20 which was a bit too big (especially in the chest, I'm a 40D). This dress doesn't have any stretch, so size up if in between sizes.

Winner for Bridarl Shower

I loved this dress and ended up picking it for my bridal shower. The only issue was the sleeves were a bit too big and I ended up pinning it to fit. It accentuated my curves nicely in my humble opinion. I got lots of compliments on it.

GORGEOUS! Snug in all the right ways.

Wore this for my bridal shower and it was perfect. I could not really bend over in it, but could sit ok. It's very form fitting but it really hugs in all the right ways and I didn't even have to wear spanx.

Sweet, feminine, form-fitting

Loved this dress. I am 5'4", very petite with a big bust-32DDD. At first I thought the 4 was better but went with the 2. It does hug your belly. I wore a white lace bandeau underneath to hide cleavage, but otherwise bust fit very well. Loved this dress!

Whimsical and flattering!

This dress served its purpose! It was fitted (in a good way) and so pretty! It rode up at times and the sleeves could be itchy depending on how it laid on you but those were minor. Overall I loved it!

Can’t really wear a bra

This fit exactly like a 6, true to size. My only issue with this dress is that the sleeves slide down. This isn’t a problem if you can clip the sleeves to your bra, but that isn’t an option. Perhaps a 4 would have kept the sleeves up, but would be too tight. I wore it to my kid’s performance and got many compliments. A traditional bra won’t work because the collar is very wide, and sits at the very edge of your shoulder (hence shoulders sliding off. Also, the back is very low, making a common strapless bra impossible. So if you rent this, you will look like you stepped out of teatime in a Beatrix Potter book. But also, you will need tape to keep the sleeves from sliding down & potentially flashing people.

stunning dress

everything about this was stunning, the embroidery, the fit, the length, where the waistline ribbon hit, the low back... just gorgeous. my only caveat-- I had to get fabric tape because otherwise the sleeves would fall down constantly. it was definitely snug around the torso without much give, but that allows it to look so flattering when you're standing up.

the most perfect bridal shower dress

I absolutely loved this dress! It was perfect for my bridal shower. I read the reviews and ordered a size up, and I'm super glad I did. The dress does not stretch, so I wouldn't have been able to squeeze into a smaller size. The sleeves were a little itchy, but after I had the dress on for a bit I didn't even notice it. I was able to wear a nude bra and the straps didn't show!
