It''s adorable! I just ordered it too! Not sure how I will use it yet. After party?

We are likely eloping in our city as soon as I get my divorce. We will then go on our honeymoon (and still have vows on the beach). So my other gown (previously posted) will be the beach wedding and this one will be the city wedding!

Did you see the hats/headbands - if these were in white, they would be awesome instead of a veil!!!

Fabulous usage of two dresses LC!

Oh, yay!! I''m glad some of you will get to make use of this dress!! I saw it and was actually sad I didn''t have an excuse to buy it.

And LitChick, isn''t that whole site just full of fun things?? My wedding photographer got me turned onto it (she loves all things vintage) and now I have to check it daily. One of these days I''ll actually get to nab one of the true vintage items - they''re always snatched up before I ever see them!

Ladyciel, that site is killer!!! I love so many things on it. Have you ordered anything from them? The prices are so reasonable - I hope the quality is good!

ladyciel: hows their sizing? is it like regular US size?

 

[LitigatorChick]

It looks like the sizing is rather small, and varies from piece to piece. They give measurements for each piece. We shall see!!!!

LitChick, I haven''t gotten anything myself yet, but I''ve heard good things from other people re: quality! I''m an eternal window shopper - love to look, but always trying to save money...

Cleo, I think they sell multiple different brands of clothing, so the sizing will be an item by item issue. However, they take flat measurements of each and every item (click the measurements icon on the item''s product page). So, for example, to get an approximation of the waist size, double the flat measurement they give for waist. I''ve had to use this method in the past and generally had pretty good success. It helps to measure some clothing you already own and like the fit of so you have something for comparison.
