Beautiful color and love the fit!!!
I felt beautiful on the day of the wedding! Not as gorgeous as the bride but I felt like the dress was very flattering. The material is perfect- not too thick and easy to dance in! Loved it!!
I loved this dress and received so many compliments. I felt beautiful in it. The drape hides any unsightly arms and it is very flattering. I usually wear a size 10 but am shorter at almost 5’4” so ordered 12 petite. I had it hemmed a bit. I wore it for my daughters Sept wedding where it was 85°, so didn’t want anything hot. The fabric is perfect as it isn’t too stiff or firm, but comfortable and a bit forgiving. I wore a smoothing undergarment and felt fabulous in this dress. I would absolutely buy it again.
This is THE perfect dress - it's slimming, elegant, and beautiful. I bought six dresses to choose from for a wedding, and this was the winner by far! I carry my weight on top and found that the style was quite flattering. I am in between a 14 and 16 and bought the 14 and it fit! If you like this style, get it - you won't regret it!
Very pretty
Mother of the bride and this was stunning. I thought I was going to wear the green and then saw this in ‘Nutmeg’ - perfect in every way. So elegant and fabric was absolutely gorgeous. You can wear off either shoulder and the slit is modest and perfectly designed. I did have it hemmed and could have gone down a size if they had it in a 0. It does not have stretch, but I thought the design and way it fit was generous for many body types.
I am so happy that I got this dress for my daughter’s wedding, I received many compliments. For reference I am 5’2 and the length were perfect, weight 170 pounds I ordered size 12 and it was a little bit big on the chest part, the fabric is very stretchy so I would’ve ordered size 10 instead.
Absolutly love this dress. Glad I sized up due to needing extra room in chest -other than length , this dress fit perfectly. Wearing for my daughter's wedding and couldn't be happier with the purchase.
This dress was the perfect amount of bling without being “too much”. I received many compliments!
This dress fit perfectly and I received many compliments on it. I ordered a size up because I was concerned about some comments about the waist. It needed to be hemmed for my 5’6 height.
Very prompt arrival easy returns of the gowns I did not keep.
Love the dress! Ordering process was easy and will definitely shop at B&A website again.
The dress is a thicker material so it hides your imperfections more! It's true to size unless you're super curvy them I might go up one size. I also have it in red!
The color is rich and elegant, fits well, cute back
I loved this dress for my sons wedding! It was flattering, comfortable and well-made!
This dress is absolutely beautiful and was the perfect choice for The Beverly Hills Film Festival Red Carpet event!
