dress sizes

I was wondering what size the sample dresses are for us to try on at the bridal salon. I am concerned because I am a 9/10 and I have a pretty large chest. I just don't understand how you are supposed to know how a dress is really going to look on you if it isn't your size.

Re: dress sizes

I was given size 10s pretty much across the board. Keep in mind that these are bridal size 10s which are smaller than regular 10s.

The ones that I tried on were mostly 10s too.

Re: dress sizes

Be prepared to try on a dress that is a few sizes bigger than what you normally wear. I got mine from bridesave.com so I can't recommend a shop that has dresses in many sizes but other brides may be able to.
