Perfect for Church

I got this for my daughter's christening. It fit so nicely, the fabric just laid the right way in all the right places. I really liked that part of the wrap was sewn in so that it didn't feel like it might come undone at any point. My mother-in-law told me I should buy my own!

Runs Very Small

I pretty regularly wear a size 16 dress. But this one was so small, I could hardly get the waist over my bust. It would not zip up and the hem fit at my butt. Needless to say, I did not wear this dress. It felt more like a 10 than a 16. I have size 14 dresses that fit better.

Great dress for new moms

I gave birth two months ago and am currently breastfeeding. This dress was the perfect option for my sister-in-law's wedding. It has a solid back, so you can wear a regular bra (or pumping/nursing bra, in my case.) I didn't receive the 16WR, so I'm not sure if that one would have been a better fit, but the 18WR fit very comfortably. The cross front top made it easy to access for pumping mid-reception in my car without stripping down, but still stayed together so I felt covered and not like I would fall out at any point while dancing. The bottom was lined without much stretch as described, but it was still very true to size, so there was room to move. I got so many complements while wearing the dress and it was perfect for the occasion.

I got compliments all night on the color and the fit.

The fit like a glove in all the right places, but I picked the 10 so that I had room to dance, since the wedding band was the best in town. I was a little disappointed that the purple didn't show through the navy as much as the original picture showed, but navy is my color, so I still go plenty of compliments.
