    It's pretty but I think it's a bit short!

    It depends on what your theme is, but it looks really nice. I also think it is a bit short.

    That's super cute but I agree that it's awfully short for a bridesmaid.

    love it.....but like everyone else i think it is too short as well. but if u can get it longer i think it would be pretty. but its your wedding...people should be looking at you and your fiance up there...not checking out all your bridesmaids' legs!!

    Oh wow...CUTE dress! But yes, I would say it looks short on the model...HOWEVER, how tall are your maids??? As a short girl myself, I know that that dress would probably be more knee-length on me. I'd say you'd have to see it in person to know! Where did you find it???

    I think it's pretty. Sometimes they just look really short because the models are so super-tall. As long as it fits everyone nicely, go for it!

    I think it depends on the rest of your wedding. I agree w msbuttons that it probably looks super short bc the model has such long legs!

    Super cute dress! I have to say that my first thought when I saw the picture was "Gee, that's short.". Unless you're having a casual beach wedding or the sort, they might look out of place.

    I would think that if your bridesmaids are comfortable with the length, it might not be a problem. As someone who's been a bridesmaid in 6 weddings, I probably would have been uncomfortable in that dress... but you never know!

    Personally I really like the length. It can be sexy without being trashy I think, Especially for a summer wedding. Just keep in mind the build of your girls but I LOVE it all around. ") Good luck. I would totally wear it!

    I agree that it looks short but it might be OK on "real" bridesmaids.  I love the style and color!

    It looks great to me. However it could be not ok depending on the style of your gown and your wedding

    Also, if you have busty bridesmaids, there may not be enough room up top.  The top is short and the waist band is high.

    No, especially if you have tall girls or busty girls... way too much skin!

    It definitely depends on how tall your BMs are. Dresses always look shorter on models since their legs are like 3 miles long. If you have shorter BMs it probably isn't too short! It's very cute, though.

    Way too short, IMO. Cute dress for a night out, but a bit too casual for a BM dress--of course, that depends on how formal/informal your wedding is.

    I too think it's a tad short but may look okay on your actual bridesmaids- it depends how formal your theme is which Im assuming with this dress it's not?

    No, like everyone else said "too short".  Also if you have a larger bridesmaid they may not be comfortable with it, the dress seems a little on the skimpy side.
