Hi lovely bees – tried this on a couple of weeks ago at davids bridal. it felt quite tight and structured but I am obviously not used to wearing that kind of dress! Please can you give me honest opinions on whether it looks too tight and I should go up a size. Thank you xx

It honestly looks like it fits you just fine. Very nice dress. I understand things may seem too tight if you are not used to wearing things like that. You look great girl.

@Blackie: The only place that the dress looks tight is in the back, but that is only judging for the reflection in the mirror behind you. You can alwyas go and try it on again and ask the seamstress on-duty what she thinks. From the front it looks lovely.

I think it looks perfect! And remember that when you are wearing the dress, it will warm up and loosen slightly. You look gorgeous!

@Blackie:

If you look at her reflection in the mirror you can see that the dress cuts into her back. I’d order a size up and get what I need to altered.

@lcutter711: yes that was my concern exactly. The dress felt fine on and I liked the look from the front but when I saw the photo my friend took I was horrified at my back fat!!
