✔️Fully lined

The dress has that princess factor, it's lightweight and very comfortable. The fit was nice, it was very forgiving and hid my belly with the design. I used extra cups to fill out the front more, so if you have normal-sized breasts for your body, this should fit well. If you are like me, add cups. I didn't even sew them in and they worked out perfectly. I took them out of a swim-suit. I also bought a hoop skirt off eBay for $10 and it was fantastic - it made it really easy to walk. I took it off during the end of the reception, but I really should have left it on. It made the bottom fill out for photos really nicely too.

I tend to hold weight around my middle; I am fairly skinny/normal-sized person, but with a little gut (probably from wine). I weigh 135.

I used their Gown Preservation Kit to send the dress back and have it professionally dry-cleaned and boxed. Please ask me any questions. I can talk to you on the phone or describe anything about my body or the dress to help you make the right decision. I can send more photos, of course.

Thanks!

Alterations

I am 5'6" and a quarter. My heels were modest, about a 1.5", so that would make me 5' 7" and three quarters. The dress just touched the floor, I think it could have been hemmed more, but it was fine. I think you could go a little higher or lower really. There is a back bustle for the train added.
