"I had bridesmaids ranging from a size 2 to a size 10 (so tall she had to order up!) and they all looked fabulous in this dress. It wasn't completely form fitting so they could eat, drink, and be merry without worrying about bloating! In black, it doesn't look like a bridesmaids dress and could certainly be worn again. In fact, I plan on borrowing my sister's to wear to a cocktail party. :)"

"I would definitely recommend this dress! Came in about 3 bus. days on regular shipping on the day they said. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 hearts was because size chart of chest area was not too accurate, it runs pretty big. I had to get dress altered in the chest area and I'm pretty busty (36D)! Alteration only cost me $10 bucks so I thought it was worth it. Other than that, color is pretty accurate (I had the canary yellow). Dress is comfortable, would not slip down like some other strapless dresses. Length was good too. Is of good quality and can be dressed up or down. I'm big in chest and tummy area(I'm about a size 8/10 in regular clothing 5'1) and I felt very comfortable in dress. Style is very cute and classy..loved it!"

Happy girls

Date:March 30, 2012
"Love this dress. My girls love it too. They are a 2 and a 10 and they both love how it fits them. I wanted a dress that my girls would love and that they could possibly wear again. It's a beautiful dress that doesn't scream "bridesmaid"! We got it in sangria and love the color! I wanted the color to pop and it really does. The price is also WONDERFUL! Overall a great dress and I am very happy and have happy bridesmaids :)"

Too big up top

Date:March 21, 2012
"Cute dress, but too big up top. I ordered a size 4 and it is quite snug around the waist, but too big in the chest (surprising, since I am a D cup), so I will have to have it altered if I decide to keep it. Disappointed it didn't fit better."

Pleats on dress make you look pregnant/bloated

Date:February 6, 2012
"I would not recommend this dress for any bridesmaids. My best friend picked this dress for her maids to wear, so we all ordered it. Once we got it in, there was an uproar because it fits so poorly. When you move, the pleats on the front of this dress pillow out. The pleats do not lie flat. My husband told me that it make me look pregnant when I was walking around. This is not shown on the picture at all. This dress is lined underneath which is fitted but the pleats flow outward so it would not work for anyone who is pregnant either. All of us bridesmaids, returned this dress to order another one."

Beautiful

Date:October 3, 2011
"I wore this dress to my friends August 2011 wedding on the East coast. I loved this dress. So flattering and I felt comfortable in it all night. True to actual size and I didn't need it altered. It is a tab bit on the short side so be careful."

Great Dress!!!

Date:September 1, 2011
"This dress is extremely soft and I can see it being very comfortable to celebrate in. I ordered a size 4 and I think the top part may run a tiny tiny bit big. The fabric overall feels kind of thick as well so I probably wouldn't suggest choosing this dress for a hot, summer wedding. The horizon is a very bright and beautiful blue and I cannot wait to wear it (for the wedding and other events)!"

"My daughter chose this dress in the Clover for her outdoor wedding, July 16, 2011. They were well made, true to fit, and did not wrinkle--held up well in the North Carolina heat! This dress can be worn again without it screaming "bridesmaid!""

Beautiful dress

Date:June 29, 2011
"I think this dress looks great. I am a size 4 in all DB dresses, my only issue with the dress is that it was a little big in the chest and I had to have it taken in. All other DB dresses that are size 4 I've been able to just put it on and wear it. But other than that, I'm very happy with the dress and look forward to wearing it to my rehearsal dinner in a few weeks!"

"My bridesmaids wore this dress and to give you a little background they ranged from sizes 2-12 and one was pregnant . They all looked so beautiful but the only thing they didn't really like was hot tight it was around the hips and thighs. I loved the pool blue color and overall was very happy."

pros and cons

Date:May 28, 2011
"I loved the way the dresses looked online, they photograph really well and the colors look beautiful. I got the pink and the green and the pink was dead on but the green was A LOT darker than it looks online. Thankfully I loved the green anyways. They all fit fairly well, but with the pleating, can tend to look a little paunchy. The girls were in love with the pockets though! My wedding is in July and I will post pictures after the date!"

"The dress is very comfortable. If you have hips I would not recommend this dress, because make you look larger. This is beautiful dress regardless."

Adorable

Date:January 18, 2011
"My brides maids love their dresses! Although we bought the dress in the 'fern' color in store, I can't find that color online. It's an adorable dress. They all said that they can easily wear them again and that was very important to me in choosing their dresses. It fits all of their body sizes, from 125 lbs to 170 lbs. They all look great, and the style is perfect for my May 2011 wedding."

A worthwhile Purchase.

Date:January 11, 2011
"I am a very Busty person and my Bust did not fit into the size that fit the rest of my body. So if you are busty I would go by your bust size. Because I might be falling out of my dress at the wedding that I am attending. So lets hope that that is not the case :) Just a small word of advise. Again let me restate; Measure by your bust size and then take that size. If the waist is to big then you can go to a seamstress and have them take the waist in for you. There is nothing worse then having to worry about falling out of the dress."

"I had a 7 bridesmaids ranging from a size 2-16 and they were having a tough time reaching an agreement on a dress style. We finally settled on style 83312, but when we got to the store to try it on, it was really tight around the bust, especially on the bigger chested girls. So I let them loose in the store to try to reach a new compromise. Someone found this dress, then they all tried it on and loved it! It was cute and absolutely wearable again. The Marine color was so beautiful!"

"My bridesmaids wore this for my wedding. It was cute and comfortable and they all said that they liked it. I think they all had to have some alterations, but that is to be expected."

Sizing!!

Date:May 17, 2010
"This dress is extremely cute and well made, HOWEVER the sizing is very strange. I ordered three of these for my bridesmaids (Sz 10, 12, and 16). The one that the 16 was for had tried on a 16 in the similar style Style: 83707 which is a-line rather than a tulip type skirt. The 16 in this did not fit. It was only slightly too big for the bridesmaid I ordered the size 12 for. The 12 did not even close to fit. We are just taking the 16 in a little. Again, the dress looks beautiful, but be careful with the sizing. The skirt is where the trouble lies and because this is an online exclusive, exchanging can be a hassle. David's Bridal Returns were really great though."
