Hi! Congrats on your upcoming wedding! I purchased this dress a couple of months ago for my upcoming beach wedding in July, then found another that I like instead, that more fits my style. I was not able to return this dress since it is past the return period, so I am trying my luck here. I discounted the dress only slightly since it is not used. I just can't return it.
...:: SIZING NOTES ::...
*********************** Bust is 36.5" --------- Waist is 29.5" --------- Hip is 39.5" ***********************
Refer to the sizing measurements of the dress provided above instead of the "Dress Size / Street Size" options - too many brands have led us women astray. If you are buying a wedding dress, please take a moment to be measured at a seamstress and keep those numbers with you - then you never have to wonder if it will fit.
The "length to floor measurement" for this dress is actually 60"+ (there is plenty of fabric/train here). Please use this information as a guideline instead of the "height with heels" option above.
...:: DRESS NOTES ::...
This dress really is fantastic. The slit up the leg is SO HOT, but not inappropriate at all. The cross-back straps (which are ADJUSTABLE, by the way!!!!) are actually COMFORTABLE and the whole dress itself is as well - you can move - you can dance. Short zipper back; easy to close by myself. There is no boning in this dress - it is a breathable dress that hugs the upper body well. I found it was nice since I don't have hips or a butt - it gave me a nice shape while still having an element of sexy to it that was breathable for my outdoor wedding.
My intention was for this dress to be worn on the beach, but it would work well in a garden, backyard, under tall oak trees, at a ranch, on estate grounds, or any other casual natural setting. The train and effect for "the wedding walk" is stunning! (I later decided I didn't want a train at all, so I bought a completely different style dress).
...:: NOTE ABOUT "CUP SIZE / CHEST AREA" ::...
I am a C/Small D cup and this dress fit perfectly. Because the straps are adjustable, there is room to accommodate a larger size if needed. Or, the straps can be moved the other way for those brides who more resemble the models in the stock photos in chest size, and it would very much resemble the top photos from this listing. There is no underwire here, so the dress will form to YOUR chest features.
...:: 24 HOUR SHIPMENT ::...
I will ship within 24 hours of payment received via USPS Priority Mail in a Medium Box with tracking.
...:: OVERNIGHT SHIPPING::...
If needed, inquire about expedited shipping costs by zip code to ensure I can meet that need. All extra shipping costs above standard will be at the expense of the buyer and need to be paid for separately.
