Review on Dresses for Bridesmaids, Weddings, Pageants, Birthdays, Evenings, and Girls' Clothing by Jim Bodnarchek

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Decent dress but not quite what we were hoping for.

Advantages: - Very nice dress. The lace is beautiful, as are the buttons at the back. - Excellent price. - Appears to be well made. - The top fits perfectly. (We ordered a size 5/6 based on my daughter's measurements of 23" bust and 21.5" waist). One fell out when I first buttoned the dress. The zipper binds a bit and requires more force than it takes to move. I felt like tearing it apart. The inner satin slip is approximately 2 inches shorter than the tulle, making the dress appear shorter than it really is. (Not so good for bigger kids like mine.) Even with a good petticoat, the dress isn't nearly as full as it appears in the photos. *However, she was NOT dressed in the attached photos.* - It looks a bit odd at the very back where the tulle is sewn into the zipper. A dress. I was able to sew the button back on and the length didn't bother me too much, but since it's "too itchy" we're going back.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • So far, so good
