The Dress

This amazing 3/4 sleeve wedding dress catches the light in so many gorgeous ways, from the crystal-beaded waistband to the jeweled buttons down the illusion back, to the sparkling sequin lace appliques on the skirt. Adding to the drama are a plunging illusion bodice and a pink-tinted underskirt that gives your wedding look a hint of color.

I felt exactly as I had always hoped to feel on my wedding day. The dress fits like a glove at a perfect size 18W, which is my normal size. The dress is so romantic and elegant, plus it looks very luxurious in person with all the appliques. My worry about a more budget friendly dress was it looking cheap, and I did not have to worry at all! I would recommend finding a backless bra, as I did, as my only worry for the day was keeping my chest in place and the bra helped so much with that. I cannot tell you how many compliments I received on the fit and style with no alterations made.

Also included in the purchase of dress I will send the Plus-Size A-Line Silhouette Slip from David's Bridal size 1X. I wore it under my dress for pictures and the ceremony to create the desired volume, then took it off when the dress was bustled for the reception.

Alterations

I added a five point bustle and replaced button loops along the back of the dress. No changes to size or length of dress.
