Elegant Lace Beach Wedding Dress for Bride 2023 with Sleeves - Romantic Long Sleeve Bridal Gown for Beach, Garden & Destination Weddings (Style YZTS014)

I absolutely LOVE this dress! I went shopping at David's Bridal originally and could not find anything that was even close to the ONE. I took a chance on an Amazon order, and it worked out beautifully. There were a couple hiccoughs along the way, but it all worked out.I ordered a size 16 using the chart, and then email the company with my measurements. I also requested no train and no bra cups (which seemed the one feature most reviewers were disappointed with). When the dress came, it fit really well, the only measure that was off was the length. I'm going to have it shortened a couple inches, but that might have been me, I did measure myself, and might not have gotten the hollow to floor measurement right.There were no bra cups, however that left me with a bit of a wire visible under the fabric of the bodice. The "pointy boobs" that some people mentioned in reviews seem to be the result of wire being used for structure. Also, the bodice is structured in such a way as to suit a 20 year old, not a 37 year old, it's too high. I will have to see what my alterer will be able to do with this, but from what my friends told me, the dress looks nice on me regardless. One advised me to get a push-up bra to solve this issue. Good thing I asked them to take the cups out, those would have been way too high to cover anything!The dress is also very lightweight, not like the dresses from mainstream shops, which weight 25-30 pounds and have no shoulders to hold the weight! I wanted something I could move in without dragging a lot of weight around, and this dress delivered.Another issue I would mention is, while the seller provides a tracking number, it's not going to work with the DHL service that Amazon lists as shipping. The seller sent the dress to the US middleman (or woman, since her name was Megan from MD, if I remember correctly?), and then this person repackaged it and sent it on to me by USPS. This caused a delay, and I was not able to work with DSL because the number listed by Amazon is not DSL international, it's domestic. I was able to get with Amazon Support and they helped me to figure it out. So, if you order, and it takes longer than the estimate, this is probably why. It arrived about 3 to 4 days late, so the delay is not too bad, just be aware if you're on short notice.I have an altering appointment in a couple of weeks, and will post an update on whether the bodice issue can be easily solved in alterations.
