Hi bees,
Long time reader but first time poster, I thought I’d get your valuable opinion on my dress, it would be much appreciated! My wedding is this coming July. I bought my dress – the Enzoani Fabi, last June. I loved the simplicity, modern look, and the lightness of the organza fabric for my summer wedding. At the time I didn’t get a belt with the dress (the one below was just one I tried on at the store) and now that it’s been another six months I am starting to suffer dress regret 🙁
I have had a hard time finding a belt that works with the dress, and now I’m afraid that I’ve picked the wrong dress altogether for my body type. I’m petite, 5’2″ and short-waisted, and I’m afraid that the belt will cut me off in the wrong spot and make me looked shorter (in the picture I’m standing on a pedestal so I look taller than I am). I was thinking of going without the belt but this dress doesn’t really look right without one.
With another 6-7 months before the wedding I was thinking of searching for another dress but it’s a long process and I really don’t want this dress to go to waste. Am I just over-reacting over my dress or can I do better with another dress? If keep the Fabi, would a thinner or thicker belt look better? Thanks!!

No, I think you need to keep this dress and wear the belt that’s in the picture (or one similar). The dress looks amazing on you! I am also short with a short waist, so I understand where you’re coming from. When the dress gets hemmed to the proper length, it’ll look great on you, I promise!!!
You look beautiful – keep this amazing dress!

Like prior posters, I love the dress on you, and I love the belt in the picture! I would keep the dress and go back to purchase that belt or try to find one that is very similar.
