Bea Cold Shoulder Ruffle Dress

The first time I tried this dress one I thought I hated it. But I gave it another chance and loved it! I wore it to a wedding and it was so comfortable and easy to wear. The neckline is a little low but I was still able to wear a strapless bra. I wore black patent heeled sandals and it made the dress pop more than a nude shoe. Would definitely recommend this dress!

Love this dress so much I bought it in two colors- blue and gold. To be honest, the rational part of me thought the gold would be hideous, but I listened to that little inner voice, knowing Nordstrom has a great and simple return policy. My inner voice was right. For someone who rarely wears dresses (I feel like I just don't have a "dress body"), this absolutely works. I'm a pretty standard size 12, and the medium fit me perfectly. I started with the large and could've gotten away with it, too, but when medium became available I decided to try it just in case. Both dresses will be gorgeous with a nice summer tan. Planning to wear at least one to a Florida beach wedding next spring. As another reviewer commented, it IS low cut, but nothing you can't work around. I am more curvaceous (not one of those flat-chested boy body models! lol), but even this isn't too revealing for me. That said, I'll probably stitch the "v" up a little higher, because my curves won't hold up with those clear tape-type bras meant for low cut or backless dresses. There's a built-in slip that comes about halfway down the thigh. Initially I thought that was a dumb design feature, but I realized it keeps you modest without interfering with the front wrap hem. LOVE!

I'm obsessed with this dress! I wore this to a beach formal wedding this past weekend and I received a lot of compliments on it. I'm 5'3 and the xs fit perfectly - true to size . The straps are adjustable which was nice. Its very flowy yet sexy at the same time. I did steam it before the wedding and the water left marks on the dress but even that didn't stop me from wearing it.

The dress is JUST as pictured. Color and fit is exact. I ordered a small (despite my usual size being XS-SM and despite other reviews saying it ran big) because I loved the dress and that was the only size left. I’m glad I chanced it because it fit perfectly! I’m sure an XS would have worked just as well. It is a looser fitting/flowy dress so there is “extra” fabric, but that’s how it’s suposed to be. I am 5’7 and 115 for reference. My only wish is that the sash was held in place by little loops or sewn on at the side so that it stayed in place better. No biggie, especially for the sale price.
