    Hi!! I already bought my dress, BUT...

    I was looking at dresses online and fell in LOVE with the Maggie Sottero - Jocelyn Gown! I was wondering if anyone is wearing this dress and/or is selling it??

    Do you think that the pick up skirt would be overwhelming on me because I am very petite (5'1")?

    Blessings, Amy

      It's a beautiful dress! But it might be a little overwhelming to your frame. Can you try it on somewhere and see how it fits you?

    I'm about the same height as you and I also think it might be a bit overwhelming for your frame... can we see a pic of the dress you already bought?

    I think that dress would be pretty difficult to have altered up, which you will probably have to do.  I'm your height as well and I think it would take away from the skirt having it altered up.

    It's great to hear from other petite brides!!!

    Here is a picture of the dress that I already bought...with and without the off-the-shoulder straps. I originally picked this dress because it wasn't overwhelming on my small frame, but I'm really wanting the WOW factor that I'm not sure this dress offers.

    I actually LOVE your original dress(with the off the shoulder straps), it's so timeless. The Maggie dress is pretty but I feel the skirt style will go out of fashion more quickly - your current dress will look better in pictures longer.

    Hi,

     That  type of skirt doesnt help us(Im 5'0) I tried the Brielle which let me tell you I loved it. But the skirt made me look shorter. And unfortunetly  Maggie Sottero doesnt customize the dresses to the brides Please Help...Maggie Sottero - Jocelyn!! :  wedding dress Icon Sad I wanted that dress so badly only if they could do the dress without the pickup skirt.  No luck.
