I bought this dress off the rack at a luxury bridal boutique. It is very comfortable and sexy yet simple with a beautiful mermaid fit. The lace on the side is not itchy and the fabric is thick and durable, but not too heavy. Unfortunately my plans have changed and I no longer have a need for this dress. It has never been altered and has only been worn in the bridal shop for try ons. I am 5'10" and usually wear dress sizes anywhere from size 8-10 depending on the type of dress and fit. The tag on this dress says size 10 US and is very form fitting and flattering fitting more like a size 8. I've included a picture of the tag and close up photos of the zipper/buttons and side lace for reference.
sizing details: UK12, US10, EU42, Bust 38.6, Waist 29.9” and Hips 40.9”
