After ordering and receiving 13 to 15 gowns for my nieces wedding next week in New York City I finally took a trip to the store and found this beautiful dress in a beautiful blue that sparkled right off the hanger. I am large busted and cannot wear a strapless bra and did not want a sleeveless dress. Designers simply do not make evening gowns for women like us. I am a size 10 in pants but a size 14 on top . When I tried this gown on it fit perfectly on top and through the waist and as it flared out from the hips it was a little bit large , A simple alteration to take it in ever so slightly in the hips and thigh area the dress is now perfect. Thank you Alex evening wear for thinking of women like us who don’t want old matronly dresses but do not want sleeveless , strapless , or off the shoulder either
