The Dress

I got this dress from BHDLN after trying it in the store. I knew it was the one! It is so comfortable and has pockets, which came in handy during the wedding. And the fabric looks and feels much more expensive than it is.

The dress has sheer panels on the side and a deep V on the front and back. I wore a NuBra and it worked perfectly. This dress is crazy flattering and also comfortable; you can eat and drink as much as you want and not worry about sucking anything in!

A few dark marks on the bottom inside of the dress; otherwise it is in excellent condition.

Alterations

Because of the fitted top and the long length of the dress I made some adjustments from the original size 12 that I bought. My tailor shortened the straps a tad and made the waist smaller. The dress is easy to take apart by a tailor so that you can have a custom fit. Please see below for the measurements.

I also had the tailor (1) redo the pockets so that they are hidden in a seam (otherwise you can kind of see them in the original dress) and (2) make American bustles for me (one on the back and two on each side) so that I could dance to my heart's content without tripping over the skirt. (You can see what the dress looks like bustled in the last photo.)

After the alterations the measurements (all approximate) are as follows:

Bust: 35.5"
Distance from Shoulder to Waist: 14"
Natural Waist: 29"
Length from Waist to Hem (Front): 45"
Length from Waist to Hem (Back): 68.5"

I am 5'5" and wore the dress with 2.5" platform sandals. The front just grazed the floor and the back made for a small but elegant train.
