Wow!

Maxine you ROCK!

Thanks for posting those. Do you think that is the same exact dress? It has the small bell sleeves and the mandarin collar. She looks beautiful.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Kim

Your welcome!!

I think the wedding was a few years ago but it looks like the EXACT SAME DRESS!!!!!! Crazy huh??? maybe its a classic that has been around for a long time .. or something that was in style and is now coming back ( alot of dress makers put a dress out ... discontinue it and bring it out months or years later with little changed to the design of it)
Im so glad I could help

I think the dress is great! It looks like it would be very flattering to most figures!
Good Luck!

You have to try it on. - Honestly, it's gorgeous on that size 0 6'2' maniquin. - But, I found out the disappointing hard way, that NOT everything will look like that on me ! haha (I tried it on my 5'2' curvy body and it just did not work for ME anyway)

And to be truthful, I was pretty dead set on wearing sleeves to 'cover up' BUT, sometimes, they bring more attention to you..........try on EVERY STYLE and see what suits you best. - You might surprise yourself, I did !!!

Its so funny that you posted this!! The reason I actually fell in love with this dress is b/c I am 5'1 and ...well more round then curvy lol

I thought it was sooo flattering compared to everything else I had tried on!!! I was DEAD SET against anything with sleeves!! I was only looking at strapless ballgowns or halters, and the lady at CWC FORCED me to try this dress on! I am soooo happy she did though or I would still be searching!!!
Every BODY is different though so you really do need to try it on first. There is another plus sized bride on here that has the exact same dress as I do and felt the same way about it. Very slimming and flattering to her figure.

Exactly my point. - It's all a matter of what makes you feel comfortable. - I guess I was so madlly in love w/ it, and then when it didn't look on me, Exactly the way it looked in the picture........I was disappointed and hated it on my body - THAT was when I stopped picking things out of magazines !!! haha. But def. go and try it on !!!
