"This was a phenomenal dress for me! Not a stitch was required to fit it to me...it was perfect! I bought it off the rack and wore it two weeks later! It even traveled well, as my husband and I got married on the beach in Key West. The collar and halter made this dress especially unique in this current world of sweetheart cut dresses. It also made me look skinny and busty at the same time! This dress was utterly unbelievable!"

"I had an emergency and had to purchase a new dress 2 months before my wedding! I looked and looked online and wrote down all the ones I wanted to see and had over looked this one many times but came across it and LOVED the back. I knew I wanted to try it on. I got to the store and it was the first dress I tried on, the only size they had and come to find out this style has been discontinued. The dress fit great and I knew it was meant to be. I tried on 8 more dresses but ended up coming back to this dress, the first one I tried on. I love it and I cant wait for my wedding!!"

Absolutely Stunning!

Date:February 23, 2012
"I absolutely loved this dress! I received so many compliments on it. It has a bit of everything, beading on the front, gathered slightly at the waist, a row of buttons over the top of the zipper in back, and a beautiful halter neckline with a collar. So many of my guests thought the collar was so unique! Very flattering and you can create a beautiful bustle with just one loop which makes it easy on your maid of honor or personal attendant."

"I fell in love with this dress for the moment I laid eyes on it. I was a bit nervous because I had to leave the dress for alterations. The alterations were completed days before my wedding day; thankfully everything went fine and the dress fit perfectly.
I want to say a special thank you to the staff of David’s Bridal Sawgrass location especially the alterations crew; thanks to you my day was perfect"

sassy yet classy

Date:November 14, 2011
"I went into the store looking for a totally different style, but the staff talked me into trying on this dress and i'm glad that I did. I am 5'1 and curvy with a lot of bum in the back and in this dress I look taller and smaller. I am in my mid 30's and on my wedding day I want to feel like the woman that I have become. When I put this dress on I felt grown and sexy. I had finally found a dress that was not wearing me, I WAS WEARING THE DRESS! I am excited about my purchase and I know that my hubby-to-be is going to love this dress on me."

"This dress really helped elongate my 5'1" frame! It comes in petites as well, so I barely needed any alterations. It was love at first sight - totally matched my personality and looked gorgeous in photos and in person! People will be looking at your back throughout the whole ceremony, and the dramatic back of this dress makes a big statement!"

"When I got done with all the alterations I loved this dress- I spent almost $300 on alterations. The back gapped alot and the zipper needed to be taken out and put back in twice. I actually wore this dress twice! Once for my wedding day and once for a party we had back home (we got married in mexico). I had it altered to be a short cocktail dress after the wedding- it was great!!!! I got so many compliments on the dress- no one expects the collar! It really looks high fashion and yet is elegant."

"I have no regrets! I didn't know about this dress at first, but my mom really liked it so I took it home. I kept looking at a lot of dresses even after my purchase, but there were none that even compared. This dress is so elegant! It is a dress that you don't see everyone else wearing. It is unique. I am so happy! I got SO many compliments all night and day. People love my pictures and all I hear is how much they love my dress. I am so happy I listened to my mom! What a wise woman!"

"When I went to DB to try on dresses this was the last dress I wanted to try on , but my mother said maybe I should just try it on . So I did and it was THE DRESS . This dress was an absolute head turner and I was in love with it on my wedding day also the comfort of the dress was so great ! Hope you enjoy this dress as much as I did !"

"The dress was perfect. It wasn't my first choice, but when I put it on, every girl in the DB salon cheered and said it has to be the one. It flattered my silhouette and gave me the regal look. My friends said that I looked like a queen :) I love the collar and the racerback style. The buttons were also perfect addition.
It survived over 12 hours in the plane and 12 hours of the wedding event. Only thing - I encourage to put more bustle points, as in my case 3 was definitely not enough to hold my dancing and partying.
The dress is simple, so you can accesorize it and make it unique. It fitted perfectly for my mantilla veil, although I was worried, that their styles will crash. Versatile dress and most of all, it looked like an expensive couture dress. Far from ordinary.

Gorgeous, classy dress

Date:August 9, 2011
"I received numerous compliments about my dress. When I went to look at wedding dresses, this dress was not even close to what I was looking for, but the sales consultant and my mother both recommended that I try it on. It looked amazing in the store, and even more amazing on my wedding day. My husband loved it. It is a very comfortable dress to wear, and is also very church appropriate (I was married in a full Catholic Mass in a cathedral). The neckline is very flattering, and the back is much more interesting than the typical strapless dresses that many brides wear. I loved the uniqueness of this dress. I chose the ivory version, which looked much better on me than the white one, because I have very light skin."

"I didn't like the way it looked in the bridal catalog. The girl in the picture has the collar pressed down like a man's shirt and I was really skeptical when my Mom asked me to give it a try. Well, once I had it on my body and saw what it looked like with the collar standing up--I WAS SOLD. The dress is absolutely beautiful and the picture in that catalog and online do NOT do it ANY justice. I included a picture of myself in the dress so you can see the difference. Hope you are at least brave enough to try it on, once you do--you'll never look back :)"

"This dress is EXTREMELY flattering.. I'm a plus size bride and I feel SO beautiful in this dress! As plus size bride, I know the struggles of trying to find a dress that I love and was FASHIONABLE (cuz we all know there are a lot of dresses out there that are made for plus size brides, but are just hideous!).....I felt SO amazing when I tried it on..I bawled and bawled...I would recommend this dress to anyone..petite or plus size!!
--I loved it so much i bought it a year and 9 months before my wedding! Getting married Oct. 20, 2012!"

"I wore this dress to my cruise ship wedding in April and I loved it! My favorite part of the dress is the back buttons, and I loved the collar too! I had airbrush makeup so the collar didn't pick up any stains.
I received many compliments on the style. It is so unique!
I added the French bustle, which worked wonderfully. I did not wear any supportive undergarments because everything I tried on showed in the underarm area of the dress. So keep that in mind.
All in all- great dress! Wish I could wear it again!

"This dress was the first I tried on. I knew it was "the" dress when they put the veils on me, and my mom and sister started crying. I tried on more, but nothing else even came close. we will be getting married in a very formal wedding chapel and I know this dress will be perfect. And it is a great price too - the 2 petite was only $299! What a blessing! I can't wait to wear it for our October wedding!"

Love it!

"I had actually passed this dress many times in the store when shopping as a bridesmaid and joked about how funny it would be because of the "popped collar" (that's how my fiance wears one of his favorite polos). So when it came to be my turn, it found it's way into my pile. As soon as I came out in it, my mother and MOH said, "That's you!" It fits so well, flatters all over, and is easy to get around in. And believe it or not, it's pretty easy to get into! Just be careful of trying it on too small or the neck can get a little snug. I would recommend this dress for slim ladies with a long neck that can wear the high collar with no problem."

"This was a beautiful dress in every way.It was not one that I had initially chosen to try on but I'm so glad I did.After a few alterations in the bodice area,it was perfect.The description of this dress doesn't do it justice."
