Lace Ruffle Column Gown

I bought this to wear to my son's wedding in July - so I have not worn it yet. It fits beautifully and it is very comfortable. Friends that have seen it on me say it is very flattering. My one question to Nordstroms is this - why do you have such young models in these pictures? If this is advertised as a Mother of the Bride/Groom, then it would be nice to see it on an older woman.

There are so many positive things to write about this gown that I don't know where to begin! I purchased this for a formal military function and love that it compliments my husband's Mess Dress uniform. - we will make a handsome couple! This dress is elegant yet modest, shapely, forgiving (the faux wrap outer layer in front camouflages a tummy nicely) and age- appropriate. Though I could fit in my daughter's pastel prom dress, it does nothing to flatter my mature shape. This dress not only flatters me, it makes me feel pretty! And ladies, if you don't jiggle you will require minimal undergarments with this dress! It has sewn in pads in chest area so a small-breasted woman will not require a bra. In other words, the dress is COMFORTABLE. And comfort makes for an enjoyable formal event! The dress comes in regular and petite sizes and Nordstroms will hem it for free. I am so pleased with this dress!

This was ordered for an upcoming formal event. I had ordered 4 dresses online since Nordstrom is not in my area. At first I thought the dress was just okay when reviewing online but thought I'd give it a try. I was blown away on how classy this dress made me feel although I will have to return for a smaller size I was super excited to have found online. This dress runs big so if you are in-between sizes order a size down. Material is very forgiving and light compared to the other dresses I ordered.

I bought this dress to wear to an upcoming black tie wedding. The lace at the top has a little bit of sparkling thread woven into it, so you don't need too much jewelry. One word of caution - the item says that it runs true to size but I found it to run a little large. I normally wear a 12P or a 14P and the 10P fit well.

I ordered the dress for my daughter's evening wedding. I prayed that the dress would be flattering. I'm by no means a willowy or petite. I'm curvy and short (naturally). I'm one size larger on top than on the bottom (14/12) and have a difficulty finding clothing that is flattering. However, I was hugely pleased that the dress fit AND was forgiving in areas that are less than perfect (too many to count). I was hesitant to order online for a dress for such an important occasion and at the last minute (don't ask) but am now a big fan of the process. I'm also impressed with the price point, the ease of purchase, the quality of how the item was shipped, and the speed in which I received the product under the "standard" shipping terms. This is especially notable in light of my ordering around the holidays.

Purchased this for my daughter's wedding in May. It is extremely light weight. The lace yoke has a silver sparkle and is lined so you can wear a regular bra. At first, I wasn't sure about the empire waist, but it works and creates a slender profile. I am 5'3" and it only needs a slight bit of hemming.
