When I started wedding dress shopping I knew I wanted something simple, modern and elegant, but had no idea what styles I would like. I tried on every different style I came across, but every dress had too much glitz or lavish detail for my taste. After 4 dress shopping excursions I came across this dress at BHLDN and absolutely loved it. It fits nicely through the chest and waist and flares gently at the bottom with a small train (perfect for our outdoor wedding). I tried on other fitted dresses and felt self-conscious in them, but the material of this dress is light and the soft lace texture is more forgiving than a sheath. I really loved the subtle 'sheer' detailing at the straps and the low back, both added detail and character without being overpowering. I was comfortable the whole night (and until the end of the after-party at 3AM)!
This dress was everything I could have hoped for, and I would love for someone else to have a beautiful day in it!
To help with sizing, I am 5'-6", 135 lbs.
