I am going to a wedding in a couple of weeks. What do you think of this dress? I am not sure if grey is a suitable colour for a wedding.

I love it and may copy for an October wedding I've been invited to

It's nice but I'd worry about the size running very large as the model is wearing the smallest size

"It's nice but I'd worry about the size running very large as the model is wearing the smallest size"

I agree. I pointed out upthread that there is no way the model is a size 8. DD is a size 8 and much skinnier than her.

Wonderwoman1981 Did you buy it? I am desperate to know how it fits. I am so tempted to buy it, but I am waiting to hear what you say first!

That’s exactly what I thought re model size as well.

It's stunning. I thing the colour is really elegant. The reviews say it fits well, and the fabric has stretch. So I wouldn't worry about the sizing. Go for it, you will look amazing. I love the dresses on that site.

Was thinking fuschia accessories

vodkaandcranberry · 03/05/2018 18:22

Yes, fuschia accessories!

I think it's too low cut if it's a church wedding.
I don't think it matters much that it's grey as it's obviously for a special occasion.

The dress arrived this morning and it is lovely!

It is low cut, but it isn't a church wedding so that's not a problem. It is a beautiful shape and the material is lovely - soft and drapes really nicely.

There is stretch in the fabric which I would say explains the curvy model. I bought my normal size and it is a perfect fit. I absolutely love it. Quality is fantastic, and the colour is so beautiful. I will definately be buying more dresses from them.

I bought some lovely fushia accessories today for the outfit :) Thanks for your help everyone!
