I bought this beautiful dress from Shopbop.com in late 2014. I bought it in size 0 without even trying it out and it fit like a glove! The lace is really pretty and the design is truly flattering. I got so many compliments for the dress, people thought it had been tailored especially for me. I was not comfortable showing off the shoulders during the ceremony so I had a separate lace bolero tailor-made at a local seamtress that turned out to be the perfect combination in terms of color lace and design. I'm happy to include the bolero and belt for free. I love the dress so much, the only reason for selling it is because I live in Hong Kong, houses are tiny here and don't have much space to store it :(
