Cape Long Sleeve Trumpet Gown

This dress is lovely. So stylish and modern and the drape sleeve covers any flabby arms. The drape falls in the back in the perfect location to camouflage a larger backside. I loved the color as well, a very pretty blue/green color. I chose this for my daughters wedding because it was comfortable, flattering, nice material fully lined, and I could wear a regular bra with it. It hides lots of flaws, but if you have a tummy you need spanks.

I wore this dress to a wedding in the French Alps in January 2020, and it was perfect! It does run a little small, in my opinion, so I sized up one size. It drapes beautifully, and I got so many compliments on how the dress looked. I was looking for a dress with sleeves, and the draping in the back that attaches the sleeves is super interesting and really makes the dress stand out. I'll definitely look for a Betsey & Adam dress the next time I have a formal wedding to attend!

The sleeves didn't come down as far as seen in the pic.

I was nervous about what the fabric would be like and how the dress would fit etc. However when the dress arrives I immediately loved the fabric and couldn't wait to try it on. The fit was perfect! The fabric draped beautifully and looked perfect on me. I sent my bride to be daughter pics front and back of the dress and she was thrilled, she said "it's perfect"!

I am new to this brand, but I am in for LIFE. This gown is absolutely amazing on. You have to try it to believe it. I followed the designer's size chart, and went up to a 12 (normally I wear a 10). The color is gorgeous, the fabric is so stretchy and comfortable, and the design is VERY flattering and forgiving. I love the ruching and the way it hangs, everything about it! I bought it for my daughter's fall wedding. Best thing--I do not need to wear high heels! For reference I am 5'9 and an athletic 180 lbs. I can get away with a kitten heel in this. If you have some lumps and bumps, you may need to wear some spanx, but the design and color of it makes it so figure any flaws are not immediately apparent. If you have an hourglass figure--TRY THIS GOWN. I think it actually looks better on someone with curves than it does on the model. I also bought the crepe dress by the same designer which fits similarly and I loved it too, so I am keeping both. You cannot beat the price!

I ordered both a 10 and a 12 to try. The dress part of both fit quite well but I experienced the feeling of being in a "straight jacket" from the drape. I knew it would really begin to bother me in a short period of time. Loved the color but sent both sizes back.
