About the Dresses

Q:  Are all of the dresses on your site authentic designs?
A:  We are an authorized retailer for all of the manufacturers/ designers that we carry and all of our dresses are original pieces made to the highest quality standards.

Q:  How do I know what size to order?
A:  Sizing varies by designer, the style of the dress and is determined by the measurements for your bust, waist and hips. We suggest that you choose the size that comfortably fits all of your measurements. If you are in between sizes we recommend that you select the larger size so that you may have it tailored for a perfect fit. We further encourage you to send us measurements with your order so that we can have our seamstress pre measure the product to further ensure proper fit.

Q:  How do I determine my measurements?
A:  We recommend having your measurements taken by a professional tailor or seamstress or having someone help you take them. Measurements should be taken in the undergarments you plan to wear under your dress. Make sure to keep the measuring tape comfortably loose, like you'd want your dress to fit.
   Bust-Standing up straight, with your arms at your side, measure the fullest part of your chest.
   Waist-Measure the narrowest part of your torso, or where your waist creases when you bend to the side.
   Hips-Standing up straight, measure the fullest part of your hips.

Q:  According to the size chart I am a different size than I am used to wearing. Why is that?
A:  Dresses are sized differently than regular clothing so the best size for you might not be the one you're used to wearing. We recommend that you choose your size based on your measurements and the dress' size chart. as a rule most dresses from 0-10 increase 1/2 inch per size . From 12-16 they increase 1.5 inches per size
