Not for me...
I love everything about this dress! The style, the ruching, offset straps, the pinwheels, the big beautiful bow, fabric, poofiness, everything!
I got it home and put it on and it just hung there... It did not flatter my figure at all. I was disappointed, but found just what I was looking for in the Beribboned Dress (with the addition of a crinoline slip).

Perfect fit on the second try
After months of searching for the perfect dress and being repeatedly drawn to this one, I finally took the plunge and ordered it. I ordered based on the size chart. Unfortunately, I had to return the first one as it was WAY to big on the top. I reordered down two sizes after conferring with the stylist for a proper fit to my bust/waist. It was a perfect fit! I didn't mind the length, closer to mid than upper calf and I didn't have to have any alterations for the bust or waist. I wore it last weekend for my wedding and received endless compliments about my perfect dress!

Beautiful, Unique, Well-Made Dress!
I fell in love with this dress the minute I saw it in a magazine, ordered it, and was not disappointed! The fabric is soft, though the tulle under the skirt was stiffer than I expected. It is easy to see that the dress is well-made, and I was particularly impressed with the details on the back of the dress, which are even more lovely in person. Also, pockets!!
The neckline is very flattering, and since the straps allow you to wear a regular bra, it perfect for someone like myself with a large bust (I'm a 34E).
The major drawbacks are the length and the waistline. If you're short (or even average height), you'll definitely need to get the dress hemmed. And the waistline makes you look a little thick if it doesn't fit exactly right. Both can be fixed with alterations, though.

Pretty, but not right for me
This was the first dress I picked out when the BHLDN website launched. And I might have loved it if it were three inches shorter (or I were three inches taller!). But the poufiness made it kind of hard to envision the alterations, and I ultimately wasn't in love with it enough to really consider altering. It was a little stiff and heavy for my outdoor Florida wedding, as well.
I should be a true size 10 by the measurement chart (38-30-39, 34D), but I think I could have sized down in this one.
