Though he started his career designing sportswear in Toronto, Alfred Sung is best known for contemporary bridesmaid dresses at a great value. The floor-length gowns and cocktail dresses come in a wide range of colors and fabrics, including dupioni, peau de soie and chiffon, making them ideal for bridal parties and other special events that require a refined elegance.
I purchased this for my teen daughter in garnet for an event that called for her to wear red. She loved the dress so much that I’ve recently purchased it in light pink for her to wear to a springtime event. I sized up one size based on reviews and while it fit her from the waist down, we had to have the shoulder area taken in a bit. She’s 5’8” and wore 2 inch heels. Length was perfect. I see it as a younger girls dress based on the two colors I’ve purchased, but in black or a darker color, I’m sure it would flatter any age. I thought the quality was quite good.

Disappointed
After reading other reviews, I ordered a size up because most reviews said the dress ran small. Well, the waist ran small but the top was way too big and looked more like a scoop neck than a boat neck. The lower part of the dress had so much material it it looked like a train and it was too long. I’m 5’6 and the front was below my knees. I would have had to have the entire dress reconstructed to fit me the way it should. Returned it.

Not for those actually tall...
I wanted to love this dress! But unfortunately, for someone actually tall (6-feet), the bodice was too short and fit awkwardly (blousing out at the pockets) and the front of the dress was way too short (only covered half my thighs). Beware of Alfred Sung dresses if you're tall - none of them have been long enough on me, unfortunately.
It also flattens your chest quite a bit.

Simple and elegant
I bought this in the burgundy color--very simple and elegant. I'm petite (5'2", 32x25x33, 105 lbs), and the size 0 fit me perfectly: form-fitting in the torso area (as I've experienced with many bridesmaids dresses), but still able to wear a regular bra, with a full A-line skirt. I also tried the size 2 (due to reviews saying it runs small), and the difference for me was a looser torso and a bit wider skirt.

Incredibly beautiful, true to size
This dress is incredibly beautiful. It would be perfect for a formal occasion like a black tie wedding. It appeared just like in the picture. I originally bought a 4 after reading reviews saying it ran small, and the 4 was fine but 2 fit much better—if you have a larger chest, sizing up may be the way to go, since there's not a lot of forgiveness in the fabric. For reference I'm 5" 7', 125 lbs, 26" waist and B cup.

Very small
I ordered one size up and it was still too small. I returned it and decided to go with a dress I already own.

Its OKAY fit too large will be returning
I purchased in a burgundy color shipping was fast took 4 days to receive. I am a 36c weight 150pds height is 5'6, curvy body. Dress fit right below the knee. I ordered a size 14 it fit too large Im usually a size 10-12 but since this dress runs small I ordered a size up. It didnt fit I'm almost sure a 12 would've fit perfect. The color I ordered is sold out in size 12. I will re-order in Navy blue or Black. I liked the dress overall, not worth its price though in quality. Hope this helps y'all.

Strange Fit
This dress looks lovely online, awful in person. For starters, it's not appropriate for a plus-size person - the style and construction are all wrong. Secondly, it fits very strangely - tight in the abdomen, huge in the bust (I'm a DD), way too long in the torso. Very odd proportions.

Winner! For the wedding on OKC
Best looking, most comfortable, beautiful color but had to have it pressed before event. Fit is actual size even though I can do an 8 or 10. Kind of expensive however all seemed in this price range.

Disappointed
In the picture, the dress looks like it has a satin finish to it. However, it is very dull and matte when I received it, not really looking like the picture at all. I understand that it could be worn as a bridesmaid dress but ultimately it looked like a bridesmaid dress you could pick up at David's Bridal.

proportions are off
I am a size 6. After reading reviews I ordered a size 6 & 8. Both didn’t work. The chest area was way too small in the 6 and the 8 was snug but the darts for the boobs were low compared to where my chest is. Bottom was too puffy and the look was equivalent to a David’s Bridal bridesmaid dress. Returning both.
