I attended a black tie wedding in LA and needed a gown. I am pretty tiny and didnt want to go all the way to LA to look like I was swimming in a gown. So, I went to the showroom to try on a few gowns. They did not have a lot to offer in my size at the time of try on. Browsing online this would not have been my first choice, but it ended up being the only one to fit ...and it fit extremely well. The dress and earrings I rented were delivered to the hotel I was staying the night before the wedding which they held for me until I checked in the day of. I knew it fit PERFECTLY so I didn't try it on or order any extra sizes. When I put the dress on minutes before leaving to go to the ceremony I realized the strap that goes across the top of the back was ripped needed to be sewn back together. I had to literally call the front desk for a sewing kit, sew the dress back together, and run out the door. As a result of not being a prossional seamstress. the dress was a little looser on the right side and looked jenky if you were to look close to the strap. I am extremely disapppointed in the condition the dress arrived in. At the end of the day I pulled it off and needed to make the most of it, since I had no other options.
