MemberBess,
I’ve received my White by VW dress (its not in perfect condition, details on another post). I feel like it is ‘missing something’ but I cant really tell. I feel fat in this dress..
What do you think, bees? Sash, crytal belt ? or another dress?
MemberMemberyou’re not fat. you have a really small waist but the bottom accentuates your hips which is odd since it’s an a-line and should be pretty flattering. i’m not sure what it is. maybe the front pleats?
the dress does look like it’s missing something. i remember looking at this dress online earlier and i had to go back to the db website to refresh my memory. they showed it with the black horsehair sash so maybe a sash would help make it less plain?
i also read some of the comments on this dress:
“That being said I have a very small bust (which I think is key) and I am about a size 00-0, so I think that I had the right body type for this dress. I think someone who has more curves or a bigger bust might feel constricted in this dress (but who knows give it a shot).”
“The big bow accessory I feel is completely necessary for this dress otherwise it’s a little bland.”
MemberI think it’s lovely and you definitely don’t look fat. I really like the lacy cover-up! I’d try a crystal sash only if you plan on ditching the lace cover-up, I feel like that’s it’s own show piece and a sash might make it too much.
I hope you start to love yourself in your dress- you look great!
MemberYou don’t look fat at all! However, I do think that it looks a little small on you in the waist? Maybe if it were a little looser the a-line would fall more naturally. I also agree that there should be a belt or somethin
HostessI love the cover up! What a great touch! I also agree that a blingy belt or something might sit better on you and highlight your waist!
MemberYou don’t look fat at all. I do feel like it may look puffier around your waist b/c it needs to be hemmed so it isn’t falling properly. I think it will look more flattering if you could get the skirt taken in so it’s is a bit more A line. I think that would help.
MemberIts funny.. in fact i dont have a small waist but my bottom is one size larger than upper body 
. Thats why i chose a-line dress. I think it is the built-in corset makes the waist looks small or maybe just the angle of the photo.
I’m thinking of wearing the lace top for the ceremony and go without the top + a sash for reception. I dont like the big bow on the model, it is pretty but just not me. How about having a crystal sash and make a little bow in front like the picture below? Black or Ivory?
MemberA full petticoat would pop the bottom out where it’s falling down around your hips and give it that perfect A line. I agree with PP’s… a beaded belt or sash would look fantastic (beautiful dress- you look awesome!)
MemberYOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and NOT FAT! you look stunning!
I actually bought and ordered this exact same dress for my November wedding 
I know exactly what you mean, by debating to add a sash/belt! I was thinking about adding a pearl sash or crystal/thin belt to give it a hint of bling and shine. I’m thinking of something not too over powering, because the lace detail of the dress is so beautiful. Plus, I agree with the girls who have left comments, a full petticoat will pop out the bottom, and sash will accentuate your waist!
I was even thinking of making it a sweetheart neckline, what do you think?
MemberHey, I have the same thought too – making it a sweetheart neckline 
MemberI actually really like the dress.. But I agree that something is missing.. try a sash or crystal belt
MemberI think the dress looks great on you. I personally prefer it without the top shear layer. I also agree with making it into a sweet heart neackline will really give it some kick! I would see about adding a belt with beading of crystal on it to make you stand out more!
Your waist looks super tiny also:)
Beautiful Dress!
MemberYou do NOT look fat at all. The dress is beautiful. Maybe a sash if you feel something is missing!
MemberYou do not look fat!! But I think a blingy sash/belt would help! =) Looks a little FLAT to me! =) But nothing a few accessories couldnt jazz up!
I love the cover up!
