I had a few questions about the measurements before I placed my order and the customer service team was quite helpful in guiding me. The dress itself is lovely and the mermaid shape gives a cracking silhouette. I do wish the lace was just a fraction softer, but honestly, for the price I paid, it is a very minor niggle. It still looks absolutely stunning on and I am very happy I took the plunge and bought it.

I ended up dancing for hours, but I gotta admit the seams under the armpits scratched my skin a bit by the end of the night. The lace is super pretty and looks amazing in pictures. For the price, I'd definitely buy it again.

I loved that the sleeves were removable! I took them off for the first dance and was super comfortable all night long without feeling restricted.

I literally teared up as soon as I tried it on at home in front of the mirror. It's practically perfect—the bodice gives great support without being too tight, and the lace appliques are absolutely gorgeous.

Being a petite bride, I fully expected to drown in the court train. I did have to get the hem shortened, but the bateau neckline sat beautifully on my shoulders. Wore it for an outdoor August wedding and the elastic satin was surprisingly breathable. Danced my first dance without tripping!
