Bellina Strapless Satin Midi Cocktail Dress

Bought this dress for a wedding thinking it was the most perfect color, shape, detail, everything I was looking for. I fit into the dress perfectly and my shape was amazing…until it came time to zip past the waist line. I’m a believer that if it clips, it fits and if you can even get both sides together to zip.. it should zip.. I read online about the awful reviews of the zippers on CB dresses. Was hoping it wasn’t true but after over an hour with help, had to give up and going to be returning. Super disappointing since it is really the perfect dress.

Dress is beautiful. Beautiful shape, quality fabric looks great. The sizing is bizarre though. I ordered a large and it didn’t come close to zipping. Exchanged for the XL and it was so big I could take it on and off without unzipping it. Insane. So had to get the XL and spend a lot of money on alterations to take it in but I was in love with the dress so I did it.

The zipper for this dress is so terrible. The dress fit was large for me, but the zipper close to impossible

I have many large/xl dresses but this is about 2 sizes too small. It is a shane, because i really liked it.
