"This dress was pretty on all my bridesmaids, though they all required some alterations as they're all petite ladies. One girl chose not to make alterations and the dress looked big on her and she was pulling it up all night, could've been a major wardrobe malfunction.
Pros: Pretty in pictures, looked good on all body types, could potentially wear again
Cons: The price was a bit much for the design and quality of the dress, 2 of my girls' zippers BROKE the day of the wedding, all required alterations
I don't have the pictures yet from the photographer, but these are some a friend sent me."

"I chose this dress because it was light weight for an outdoor, beach wedding in Mexico. It is beautiful. My girls love it and want to wear it again at some sort of formal dinner or something. They were very happy and thanked me over and over again for picking a dress they liked, and a dress they looked REALLY GOOD in. It's very flattering on curvy women. Great dress!"

Sexiest Bridesmaid Dresses

Date:April 11, 2012
"My bridesmaids loved these dresses and got tons of compliments on them. They ranged in sizes from short to tall, from super skinny to curvy and it made each one of them look like a model. After having been a bridesmaid 6 times myself, I was so happy to find a dress that actually made the girls look sexy/cute instead of the taffeta nightmares I was forced to wear. I'm kind of wishing I'd bought one for myself!"

Great Dress

Date:February 17, 2012
"My daughter is getting married and her bridesmaids are all over the states. She and I went and tried dresses on - she found the girls dresses and I found mine in this one. I am short and chubby. It made me look thin and is the perfect dress for someone who had a pudgy belly like me. Just beautiful."

it's a magic dress!

Date:February 7, 2012
"i went in with 5 of my bridesmaids with the gameplan of everyone finding a different dress in the same color. they're all shapes, sizes, and ages, so the thought of trying to find a dress that was flattering and age appropriate for everyone seemed impossible. Well, half an hour into trying on dresses, they all decided that this was the one they liked best! ALL OF THEM! The style looked amazing on everyone-- i dont understand how, and if that had been the goal, we never would have found it. Thank you, Magic Dress!"

Great Dress!

Date:December 30, 2011
"I looked online for my wedding dress and bridemaids dresses and this was not one that I had added to my favorites list. While we were trying on dresses, we couldn't find one of the dresses I wanted my bridemaids to try on and they found this one that was similar. After all 3 of my bridemaids tried on this dress there was no doubt that this would be their dress. It looked great on each of them and they all said it was the most comfortable out of the other ones they tried on."

Loved the dress but....

Date:December 2, 2011
"I wore this dress at my cousins wedding in the Jade. I absolutely loved this dress, it fit awesome but the wired boning of the dress infront shifted upwards and was digging into my skin. It hurt quite a bit, by the end of the night I couldn't wait to get the dress off."

MOH loved it!

Date:October 19, 2011
"After shopping for many, many dresses, my MOH tried it on and I immediately knew from the look on her face when she looked at herself in the mirror that this was the "one". We ordered it in Plum and it look incrediable on her, hidin her tummy that she hates, while being fitted and flattering thru the torso. I have no doubt that this would look perfect as a cocktail dress for a holiday party or other function."

I felt naked!

Date:October 14, 2011
"The bride said we could pick any dress in the color she wanted in satin fabric but when the other to bridesmaids chose this dress I felt compelled to choose the same one. I'm 5'10 and I have a medium to large bust and ordered a size 12. It was much to short and I couldn't sit or get out of the limo without exposing myself. I also felt like I showed way too much skin for a church wedding. The maid of honor had difficultly bending over to adjust the bride's dress and veil and she is 5'4."

"I love this dress. I am busty and kind of wide. It showed just enough so I don't show off too much. I am 5'2 and it is not that short on me. I have heard not too great for tall people. It is snug where it needs to be and loose in the areas I want. My sister let me pick whatever dress and I probably tried on ten before this one. We are both picky and we both liked this dress. She is getting married in April which is a good color. It is so beautiful."

Not pleased with purchase

Date:September 13, 2011
"This dress is very pretty, but after we wore it, the bridesmaids had issues with the zipper and not to mention the underwire it stab/poking our chest and still have bruises from where it was poking out. We had to bend the wire and some even take the wire out. Very dissapointed."

Loved it!!

Date:September 12, 2011
"I was all over the place about what my 7 bridesmaids were gonna wear and i had a lot of options and very picky bridesmaids but when i had the girls try this dress on i knew it was it. My girls are from a size 3 to like a 16 and they all looked great in it. I'm super excited about this purchase and i know that its something the girls will wear at a later time."

Very short dress

Date:September 3, 2011
"I ordered this dress for my bridesmaids without having them try it on because they are located all over the US. The dress is pretty, but it is very short. If you have any girls over 5'5" I would not recommend it because they might be giving people a view if they bend down at all. Also, the dress does not have much wiggle room in it, it will not be very easy for anyone to sit or bend down in this dress. I am going to have to go back in the store and pick a different dress, which is frustrating because I'm running out of time to get the dresses here (we're having a short engagement)."

Great Dress

Date:August 21, 2011
"My sister is getting married next month and I wasn't sure exactly what dress I wanted. When I put this one on, I knew it was the one. It looked great on me as well as the other 2 bridesmaids, (I'm a size 8 and they are both size 0's) I also plan on wearing it at other events."
