Beautiful evening gown with sleeves!
After ordering and receiving 13 to 15 gowns for my nieces wedding next week in New York City I finally took a trip to the store and found this beautiful dress in a beautiful blue that sparkled right off the hanger. I am large busted and cannot wear a strapless bra and did not want a sleeveless dress. Designers simply do not make evening gowns for women like us. I am a size 10 in pants but a size 14 on top . When I tried this gown on it fit perfectly on top and through the waist and as it flared out from the hips it was a little bit large , A simple alteration to take it in ever so slightly in the hips and thigh area the dress is now perfect. Thank you Alex evening wear for thinking of women like us who don’t want old matronly dresses but do not want sleeveless , strapless , or off the shoulder either

not for me
Neither the shape or fabric of this gown appealed to me and it was heavy.

Loved my Mother of the Bride dress
I had ordered 3 other dresses from a popular online fancy gown website and disliked all 3. I was running out of time and saw this dress from Nordstrom. I took a chance and am SO glad I did! They delivered in under one week and the dress fit perfectly, in my opinion. It was very comfortable and we danced all night! Just for reference, I’m 5’10” and 180 pounds. I wore 2” heels and the dress did not drag on the ground. I’m very happy with my purchase and am grateful that I found it.

Stunning!
The pictures do not do this dress justice. You have to try it on to see just how stunning it is. I got it in purple and will be wearing it the night before my elopement in Maui (though I was tempted to wear it as my wedding dress). This dress gets advertised as a more matronly dress, but it actually has a youthful princess look to it as well. I'm 32 and look much younger than my age, and I love this dress. If you want to look stunning, feel comfortable, in a dress that's not too revealing, you should try this one. It does run big so you may have to get size or two below what you're used to getting. I'm 5'7 and 149 pounds, curvy, and got a size 6.

Mother of the Groom
Found the perfect mother-of-the-groom dress. Comfortable, very pretty without being over the top. Love the embellishment on the dress and the scattering of a few sequins to give it just a little bit of glamour.

This dress REALLY is amazing! I ordered five other dresses for my daughter's wedding and sent them all back until this one! Say yes to this dress! The Blue-Purple is a beautiful dark periwinkle. I went up a size, and it pulls right over my head and flows like I'm Cinderella. SO comfortable for us 50+ 5'4" moms.

Better in Person
This dress is better in person than in the picture. Just enough detail and beading. I am on the shorter side of petite - just 5' and it does not need to be hemmed with 3" heels. So if you are taller, you may need to buy a regular size, not petite. Would love it down one size, but unavailable.
