I have a small chest and shaped bottom so I bought in an AU size 8 and had the top half altered to fit my size 4 frame. I am 5' 4" without heels, but I am wearing 3-4" heels in the pictures.

The organza/silk bow is slightly worn where it was tied, but otherwise looks nice. The dress has not been cleaned - there there are some red wine stains and dust coloring at the bottom of the dress which is reflected in the price. You will need to have it professionally cleaned.

Dress was purchased in May 2022 and worn December 2022.

Alterations

- no adjustments to the bust were made, however positioning of the bow was adjusted so when it was tied it held the bust area better
- waist in back taken in to fit my waist better
- small adjustment to hip area to smooth lines
- bottom was hemmed
- added French Bustle / Under Bustle
