look very closely at the model
I didn't like the fit of this dress-definitely one of my least faves. If you look closely at the itty bitty skinny model, you can see that even she has a little stomach pouch effect that the dress creates. I didn't really pay attention to that, and it happened to me as well but more severely because I have curves. The cut of this dress is kinda strange-the top half is very loose & the bottom half fits H line. And again, that seam is not in a good spot unless you have a perfectly flat stomach, yet there's not enough give in the sleeves to belt it and break the strange form of the dress up. It's a no-go.

elegant yet fun & sexy
the M was a little tight, so I opted for the L. Very mini with my long legs and had to do some careful bending/sitting. The beaded collar is absolutely gorgeous. Great material and very comfortable.

Glam Beaded Collar Dress

Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 12

Beautiful material
This dress is gorgeous and has beautiful material, but the halter is way too big! It would be challenging and take a lot of tape to get the fit just right on certain body types. I'm a 36C, and very short waisted, so there was a lot of extra material in the halter area. A smaller size may have worked, but then I don't think the waist would have fit. This may work better on narrower body types with slim waists.

Moon Goddess Gown

Bust: 36DD
Gorgeous print, comfortable
I absolutely adored this dress! Very comfortable and moves very well when you walk-very flowy. Definitely runs small though, and if you're boobs are larger than a "D" (I'm 36C), may be a little difficult to squeeze the girls in there!

beautiful showstopper!
I loved this dress! It was a great showstopper for an event I had to perform at. The only problem was that it's not made for boobs or booty. If you have a butt, the waist tends to ride up a little due to booty friction. and i had to use fashion tape to keep my boobs in, especially because the fabric is so silky. I was a little self-conscious & checking myself often, but it's such a gorgeous & unique dress that it makes up it's design faults.

Pink Bella Dress
ERIN erin fetherston
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 185lbs
Bust: 36DD
Gorgeous dress,spacious
This was an additional option for me & I wound up not wearing it, but it is absolutely gorgeous. Even though the cut and material lean towards casual, the craftsmanship of the way the dress is layered and made screams haute & expensive. My only issue is that the haltered top was waaaaaay too big and I have big boobs! I would have had to take extra measures to belt it, as well as wear something under in the bust area to be sure of no wardrobe malfunctions. I will probably order this again and wear it to an actual event, just with lots of tape!

Queen of the Jungle Gown
Haute Hippie
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"

Bust: 36DD
great dress, beautiful color
This dress definitely draws attention! Gorgeous emerald color and nice soft silky fabric. i was able to wear a strapless body shaper under it since it's not cut too low in the front or back. only thing is the belt, which if you have a butt, tends to unavoidably fold in the back and not remain smooth like in the picture. But that's ok, still a very cute fun dress.

LOOOOOOVE this dress. Very roomy & good at hiding flaws. The side ruching sweeps out more than in the picture. very long on the floor. in heels i'm 6'2" & the dress JUST hit the floor.

this is a very cute dress and true to size. i was sitting for quite a while, and the bust buckled a bit (34D) and rode up on my stockings, but a very cute dress none the less

Beautiful Print
This is a beautiful print dress, but didn't work for me because my waist is not my best feature and it definitely accentuates that. Because I'm tall & it only comes in R, it fells mid-calf which actually gave it a cute, casual feel. But in that instance, I would definitely go all the way casual and belt it. Beautiful dress though and great flow of material & fit on the bust.
