"I went to David's Bridal with my mom, future mother in law, my sister, and my 4 future sisters in law. I had 5 dresses picked out and my consultant had me try on a few more. There are so many beautiful dresses at DB, so thankfully I had so many people to help me decide on one! I love this one because it is modest and I love lace! It is vintage-ish, yet modern. The details on the back are gorgeous!!! I can't wait to wear this the day I get to marry my Marine, who is wearing his dress blues! :)"

Best Vintage Dress

Date:April 7, 2012
"It took me two times to go to David's Bridal to decide on this dress. It is a beautiful dress and the picture in the catalog does not do it justice. It is so much better in person and on. It fit just fine and is super gorgeous. I recommend this dress to anyone who is looking for that vintage look."

"I tried on many dresses and found this one just a few weeks before my wedding and the staff at David's was so accommodating in making sure it got in on time. The dress was just so perfect and everyone loved the dress, including my husband:)"

Elegant Vintange

Date:February 29, 2012
"I saw this dress online and couldn't wait to try it on, I am getting married in St. Augustine Florida, the oldest city in America and wanted something that would fit the historic architecture and this looked the part!They had one on a manaquin in the store and it did the dress no justice, I am a 2 petite and had to try the 4 regular on but Kerry our consultant took the time all four times I tried the dress on to button all the button on the back so I could appreciate the lace work, it was stunning! I tried on 8 gowns and kept coming back to this one. Everyone is wearing strapless and this was so different, elegant and classy there is no part of the dress that is not stunning! It would look perfect for the venue! If you are looking for a vintage dress definitely try this one on!"

simply stunning!

Date:February 25, 2012
"This was among 8 other dresses that I tried on and wasn't really what I was looking for, however when I tried it on, it was gorgeous. I didn't want to take it off and it brought tears to my eyes. I had wanted something simpler for my renewal, but after seeing this on, there was no way any other dress came close. It is very flattering and not too heavy considering the amount of beadwork. The buttons on the back take a while to fasten and unfasten, but that is a small price to pay for the absolute elegance of the dress. I can't wait to wear this!"

"I went dress shopping with my nana. I went in with a specific type in mind. I had wanted a fitted dropped waist dress. I tried on few dresses in that style and they were pretty but didn't feel like the one. My nana was flipping through the catalog and came across this dress. She said I should try it. It wasn't really anything I was looking for but I said I would try it. I tried it on and I felt wonderful. The way it looked made me feel beautiful. It was light and comfortable and I loved the lace detailing. It really fit in all the right places. Im so happy nana suggested it. Plus it has a vintage but modern feel to it which I love."

"This dress is gorgeous! The lace on the back is beautiful and there is so much amazing beadwork that the camera doesn't capture how pretty the dress really is! (I had to try on a size too small for me so the back didn't button all the way, but I am putting a picture up to show how pretty it is anyway.)
I knew that I didn't want strapless, and I thought that I wanted a dress with a keyhole back, but they looked heinous on me when I tried them on. Once I tried this dress on, I knew that it was the one. I didn't want to take it off and I can't wait to wear it at my wedding!!"

"After searching the interwebs forever and a day we settled on David's Bridal as the place to finally put a few dresses on. This decision was swayed by the amazing selection of dresses at very reasonable prices (made even better by the HUGE sale that was going on!# I brought my Mom and Fiance with me to try dresses on and the dress that we all thought was going to be the dress from looking online was Style T9612. I tried this dress on and loved it, as did everyone else but it just didnt feel like the dress. My consultant pulled this dress for me and my first reaction was that it was not the dress for me based on the full lace back and shoulders. As soon as this dress was on I just KNEW it was the right one! Everyone #other shoppers included) raved about this dress!! I didnt want to take it off!! The pictures dont do it justice, it is BEAUTIFUL!! I am not a skinny girl and this dress hugged every curve and made me look and feel incredibly beautiful and sexy and elegant. I will be pairing this with a birdcage headpiece to complete the Vintage Vegas Wedding we are having on October 2, 2012. I cant wait to put this dress back on and marry the love of my life!!!"

Picture does no justice

Date:January 11, 2012
"I bought this dress last May when it was first introduced as a preview dress. I'll be honest, I was secretly hoping it would not be added to the David's Bridal collection because it is so beautiful and I didn't want a lot of brides to have my same dress. The photo does this dress no justice. It's very flattering, on any body type I'm sure. If you prefer a dress more elegant and classy, this is the one."

THE dress

Date:January 10, 2012
"When I saw it online, I just knew. I went to try it on with my mother and mother-in-law and they didn't have it in my size. I tried on like 5 dresses but wasn't really into them. The girl brought out this dress in a size two smaller than me just to try. Even with it being so small and not closing up, my moms were speechless. It really is stunning and great for a vintage wedding!"

So much better in person

Date:January 3, 2012
"I agree that the internet pic does not do this dress justice...I didn't pay much attention to it online...I saw this on display when I went to DB to make an appointment and was totally drawn to it. I tried on about 5 or 6 dresses (this was the 1st one) and this was the one I bought...I normally don't like the empire waist but this dress made me feel so elegant! It has a classic Victorian look and is covered in lace and beadings...It is one u must really see in person appreciate!"

Gorgeous Dress!

Date:December 29, 2011
"This dress is exactly what I was looking for! I really wanted something different from the strapless, lace-up gowns I was finding. The button down back is the most elegant thing I've ever seen, it'll just take a little patience to get the dress on and off. The appliques with pearls and sparkle on top of the tulle are the alternative to solid lace I was searching for. It's a great silhouette for my pear shape and really minimizes my behind. Everything about this dress is perfect and I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day!"

PERFECT DRESS

Date:December 27, 2011
"I purchased this gown about a week ago and can honestly say that I never would have tried it on based on the picture online. The picture just does not do the dress justice. It is BEAUTIFUL! I didn't choose this dress for myself, but my DB consultant pulled it for me anyway. I fell in love with it! This dress is by far the most comfortable dress I tried on all day. It is extremely easy to wear. I LOVE the lace. This dress is a perfect combination of elegant, vintage, and classy. It fits perfectly in all the right places and is very flattering for a girl with curves. I cannot wait to wear this dress in my November wedding!"

Classic, Classy, Great Fit

Date:December 22, 2011
"I just bought this dress last week. Let me just say that I had a fabulous consultant at DB! We tried on four dresses before this one, including a dress I had fallen in love with when I saw it online. I was so sure it was going to be the one, and I was heartbroken when I didn't actually like it on me. I started to think I was never going to have that special feeling. But the consultant listened to what I liked about each dress I had tried on, and she went and pulled this dress for me.
The minute I put it on, it felt right. It wasn't too heavy or itchy or bulky. It fit so perfectly. I'm 5'8" and 170 lbs with D cups, so I definitely have a womanly figure. This dress is made to compliment curves! Even though I hope to lose 10 more pounds before my wedding, it fit so well, I would be happy getting married in it today. It felt secure, it looked stunning, and it really made the most of my figure. I cried. All of my bridesmaids started to cry. It is such a romantic and elegant dress! I am having a garden wedding at a historic home in downtown Savannah, GA. I wanted something different than the typical strapless, satin, princess dresses. I wanted something that felt a little vintage and would fit in the garden setting. This dress totally does. The lace details are beautiful. The cap sleeves and illusion back with buttons are SO classy. It really is a dream dress! I can't wait to walk down the aisle in this dress!"
