I LOVED this dress and regret not getting a photo when we had the chance. I wanted to keep this dress! I may go out and buy it. I wore this for my boyfriend's Navy ceremony event and it was fantastic. I clearly had one of the better dresses. I read the reviews and have had personal experience with many Lilly dresses and their sizing. I debated between the 6 and 8 as my back up then the 4 and 6 as my backup. I ended up going with the 4 and 6 as my back up. I could have pulled the 4 off, but it was too small and I would have been uncomfortable all night. I tried the 6 on and it fit like a glove. I never wanted to take it off, I wanted to live in that dress. It was fantastic. My boyfriend was worried about it being too short, but it came right at about knee height, so it was shorter than most of the dresses the girls had, but yet, very conservative. You need to rent this dress.

As soon as I put this dress on, I knew it was perfect. I bought this dress on the final sale and was so nervous! I was nervous about if I should have got the medium or small. I read the reviews over and over hoping I picked the right size. I did! The small fit perfect. If you're debating between the small and the medium, think about how your chest will fit in the dress and how tall you are. I would also suggest to check out the real retail website for their size charts and judge from there as well. Everyone who says the material is heavy is right. It is heavy, but I bought this for a May graduation, so it should be decent for the weather. Also, I just wish this dress wasn't as long. It is perfectly aligned with my knee, which is great, very professional looking, however, I just wish it was like an inch above the knee just so I didn't look so short. There is also a seam that divides your body in half, which is weird looking, but I got over it really quickly because this dress is wonderful. I'm so happy I bought this dress.
