Fit Guide for justdressy Dress Collection
Choose the right evening dress, wedding gown, or formal dress style for your body-type and desired look.
1. A-Line
Universally flattering, the A-line silhouette really is a girl's best friend. By gently flaring from the shoulders down, it skims curves rather than clinging to them, to create an elegant silhouette.
Is This Style for You? If you're petite A-Line adds the illusion of length; if you're tall it can add fullness, and if you've got curves you'd rather cover, the A-line does that too.
2.Ball Gown or "Pick Up"
The most traditional of all dress silhouettes, the ball gown adds curves by accentuating the waist and flowing gracefully into a full skirt. The skirt is great at hiding full hips and creating a gorgeous hourglass figure. <
Is This Style for You? A perfect choice for formal or “fairy-tale” inspired events, the ball gown style makes a wonderfully classic wedding dress. Looks great on most body types.
3. Column or Sheath
Figure-hugging column dresses come in a variety of strapless and backless styles. This modern style has become popular among brides who want a chic or beach wedding.
Is This Style for You? An elegant choice for anyone with broad shoulders or slender, athletic builds, it can also elongate a petite figure. However, if there are certain areas you'd rather not accentuate, its clingy design might not be the style for you.
4. Mermaid
Also known as the trumpet or “fit and flare”, mermaid dresses are fitted at the top and flair dramatically around the knee.
Is This Style for You? Mermaid silhouettes accentuate the bust, waist and hips giving an hourglass figure, so it is perfect for showing off your curves. A perfect choice for a glamorous celebrity-inspired wedding.
5. Empire
This empire silhouette features a bodice with a high waistline directly below the bust. The look can be either soft or flowing or more structured and classic, depending on the fabric and cut used.
Is This Style for You? The empire silhouette draws attention up, enhancing the waist while softening the hips, making it a great look for most body types.
6. Princess
Created with a series of vertical panels of fabric, and no obvious waist, a princess silhouette is more dramatic in appearance than the A-line, but similarly flattering.
Is This Style For You? The seams on a dress with a princess silhouette follow the contours of the body to create shape while elongating the torso. An ideal choice for anyone with a petite figure and small-waist.
7. Mini
For the super sassy bride, the increasingly popular bridal mini ends well above the knees and is perfect for showing off a pair of sexy pins.
Is This Style For You? It is best suited for informal or outdoor weddings and is especially appropriate for summer beach weddings. Equally flattering for taller brides with long legs or shorter brides who want to appear taller on their special day.
8. Knee-length
Another great look for a casual bride, this gown’s hem ends just below the knee.
Is This Style For You? Many petite or curvy brides choose this style for both elegance and comfort. Best for cocktail wedding receptions or weddings during warmer months.
9. Tea-length
Tea-length dresses feature a hem that falls anywhere between the bottom of the knee and the bottom of the calf, creating an elegant yet casual style. Popular in the 1950s, this style is a good choice for those who want to add a vintage touch to their wedding ensemble.
Is This Style For You? Tea-length dresses are ideal for showing off your legs and drawing attention to a beautiful pair of shoes! A popular choice as a “second” dress to change into for your reception.
10. Ankle-length
The ankle-length gown is hemmed right at the ankles, thereby showing off your feet and shoes. The skirt can be either full or fitting.
Is This Style For You? Great for brides who want to present themselves as smart, stylish and modern. Because this skirt’s hem does not touch the ground, it is also highly sought after for outdoor weddings or for the bride who just doesn’t want guests stepping on her dress!
11. Floor-length
Just slightly longer than the ankle-length wedding dress, this style’s skirt is not meant to drag on the floor but rather float just inches above it. Some floor-length dresses come with detailing along the hem to accentuate the style.
Is This Style For You? Rather than having your shoes and feet covered by your gown, having them visible can often ‘balance out’ your wedding ensemble. Why not add another color to your wedding ensemble, for example red, and wear a pair of shoes in that color? Guests will be pleasantly surprised when they see a striking pair of shoes peeping out as you walk down the aisle!
12. Sweep Train
Sweep Train gowns are for brides who wish to incorporate the traditional train feature but do not want to be troubled by a long train. Trains on Sweep Train gowns barely touch the floor.
Is This Style For You? For brides who want a beautiful and elegant gown with a nod to tradition.
13. Court Train
Extending about 3 feet from the ankles, the Court Train is longer than the Sweep Train and can be worn at most ceremonies – formal, semi-formal or casual.
Is This Style For You? Extremely elegant, the Court Train style is appropriate for those who plan to have only one train carrier or a train light enough for their flower girl to hold.
14. Chapel Train
The Chapel Train is the most popular of all train lengths. It flows approximately three to five feet behind the gown. A bride wearing the Chapel Train style makes a bold statement saying “I feel beautiful and special! This is MY day!”
Is This Style For You? A stunning choice for all figure types, the Chapel Train sets the brides as the centerpiece of a formal wedding.
15. Cathedral Train
Cathedral Train dresses features a cascading train for formal weddings. It extends from six to eight feet behind the gown. Also known as a Monarch Train.”
Is This Style For You? This style is the perfect formal wedding gown and will surely attract the attention of guests at church or your reception.
16. Royal Train
As the name suggests, this style was traditionally reserved for royalty. The train on this style is the longest and most formal of all styles with a train. The grand gown Princess Diana wore at her wedding to Prince Charles was of this style.
Is This Style For You? If you truly want to feel special and like a real-life princess, this could be your ideal choice. Be sure to assign a few designated train carriers on your special day!
17. Watteau Train
A single panel of fabric attached to the top of your dress at the shoulders or upper back and flowing down to the floor is the defining characteristic of a Watteau Train gown. Veils can vary in length.
Is This Style For You? As the train begins at the bride’s upper back, this style allows the bride to look elegant from behind. Also appropriate for ladies who would like to hold their own trains.
18. Hi-Low
Asymmetrical gowns have different tailoring features on one side of the gown compared to the other. A popular asymmetrical design is to have a gown’s hem shorter at the front than the back. This style allows the bride to look different from various angles.
Is This Style For You? Suitable for brides who want to combine the casual look of a shorter dress combined with the elegance of a longer hem at the back.

Measuring Guide
The below is just a guide. We recommend that whenever possible you get a qualified seamstress to measure your dress size.

Recently, some websites have been using topons.com's product images to sell their low-quality dresses. Even worse, they use the LightinTheBox.com brand image to confuse customers into buying dresses from their websites.
Attention customers: please be careful and only buy LightInTheBox.com dresses at the actual Lightinthebox.com website. These other untrustworthy online shops cannot provide high-quality dresses and will only bring you trouble.
LightinThebox.com hires the best dressmakers and experienced designers in China while using the finest production techniques. Our factories supply all our dresses, which makes it a quick and efficient process for our customers and us. Our efficiency and lowered operational expenditure can be seen in our great prices for the best dresses online.Here are some factors you should consider before making your purchase: 1. Fabric
LightInTheBox.com uses 395 Taiwan Satin, which is very soft, doesn't wrinkle easily, is easy to iron and wash and has a natural glossy shine. It is also heavier than other types of satin with an extra 30-35 g/m2.
The individuals who are stealing our product images use satin that is only 120-125 g/m2, which is lower in quality, has an underwhelming gloss, is uncomfortable to touch and becomes wrinkled easily.2. Embroidery
LightInTheBox.com's embroidery techniques are extremely detailed, look vivid and are very solid and compact.
The copied dresses' embroidery is poor because of its unimpressive technique and easily comes loose.3. Beading
LightInThebox.com's dresses are made with beautiful beads on their sleeves and collars, which make the dress look more detailed and classic. All the beading is exquisitely made by hand.
The copied dresses normally have no beading details.4. Inside Lining
At LighInTheBox.com we use a hard net lining to make our dresses, so even if you don't wear a petticoat, the dress will still look great. We also uses a comfortable lining clothe that feels nice to the touch.
The Lightinthebox.com dress copiers only use very poor clothe for the lining that has no style and counts bad stitching among its many problems.5. Bodices & Fish Bones
The dresses from LightInTheBox.com have bodices that are really well-made, perfect for different styles and sizes. There are even seven fish bones in the bodice to make sure the dress holds its shape. The bones are capped so they don't push through the lining and they follow your curves to add support and make your body look great, even without a bra.
The LightInTheBox.com dress copiers do not put much thought into the bodice and they don't use fish bones, their dresses are just flat and lack any design to speak of.Dear customer, we hope to make buying your wedding dress a joyous occasion and we wish you a wonderful wedding. To make it so, we hope you will choose a trustworthy shop from which to make your purchase.
If you have questions, please contact our customer service department or check our FAQ page for more information.Boning Q& A What is “Boning”?
Boning is used in dresses to help the dress maintain its shape, providing support and curves in all the right places to make the dress look amazing even when worn. Good boning is made from soft and flexible materials, so beware overly hard boning as it will look odd with your dress, and possibly harm your body.
What are the benefits of boning?
Many designers use boning for the majority of wedding and formal dress styles. Unlike corsets, which work to reshape your body, boning simply serves to make the dress conform to your body, allowing it to fit like a glove.
Where is boning usually applied?
Wedding Dresses: Dependant on the style of the dress, boning will be applied in different positions and quantities.
Strapless Styles: 7 slender “bones” (soft, flexible metal or plastic) will be placed in the front, and 6 in the back. Boning for princess waistlines are approximately 0.8cm wide.
Other Styles: 4 “bones” are necessary for the front, and 2 for the back. The width of the boning is usually approximately 0.6cm wide.
Formal dresses: Dependant on the style of the dress, boning will be applied in different positions and quantities.
Strapless Styles: 7 slender “bones” (soft, flexible metal or plastic) will be placed in the front, and 6 in the back. Boning for princess waistlines are approximately 0.8cm wide.
Other Styles: Different styles will have different quantities, since the places that need support vary depending on the style.
Note: Not all styles require boning. For example, sheath style dresses rarely need it.
How is boning applied to dresses?
The ends of the “bones” are always rounded so that there are no sharp edges that can poke out of the fabric. In addition, stiching is applied all around the “bone” to ensure that it is secure and won’t shift accidentally.

Additionally, the back seam often can be let out slightly to size up further.
*Depending on the gown2) Shoulders - It is also common for shoulder seams to be taken in to bring up a gown.

I received my Kate Hudson dress yesterday via UPS. I had it 3 day shipped and it was here in 2! Don't be afraid of the small box it comes in.They take wonderful care in wrapping the dress. IT IS PERFECT! You definitely need to go by the size chart they give you... mine was right on the money. I will not need alterations except at the bottom :) It's beautiful! I looks like it cost WAY more than 250 dollars. The time and attention to detail is definitely shown in the making of this dress. I can't say thank you enough to anyone involved in making this dress! I'm so excited! Don't be afraid to order from this company... you will not be disappointed! The only thing that I noticed is that they did not make it a sweet heart neckline, they just did it straight across, but turns out I like it better that way :) By Ashly, May 2010

Hey people, I uploaded pictures of the dress. It is a european size 36 and fits perfectly. Material is rather tulle than organza, but is nicely fluffy and layery. The material is also rather transparent, that is why I wear a bra underneath. I ordered several dresses, all are very nicely made, excellent craftsmanship. I opted for a different dress, and don′t need this one anymore. If anyone is interestes in buying, I would give it away for 120 dollar plus shipping to your country from germany. Email me at spam@nikita.info (don't worry, it will get to me). Accept Paypal. Dress is lightweight, more 1-1,5 kilos. It had more flowers attached where the white flower is, I removed them for the picture. I could reattach them, but I reccommend using different (maybe real) flowers, because the colors are very bright. By nikita, May 2010

the material of the dress looks a bit different from the picture itself, but it was still a gorgeous dress, the only problem i had with it was the size chart. i chose a medium based on the chart and i ended up having to alter it because i needed a small which made the ruffles of the side of the dress unattractive. other than that this dress was perfect for my senior prom, it made me look good when i won princess ;] By alma, May 2010

I received my dress today! I had it custom measured, so it took about a month to arrive. It's beautiful. The top part is delicately beaded and looks expensive. The bottom has a stiffness to it and has a bit of sheen. I imagine after it's steamed and hung, the stiffness will relax a bit. Thanks LITB! By Nikki, May 2010

Hey, I received the dress yesterday and it is absolutely amazing - it looks exactly like the picture, the back is exactly the same as the picture (for those that were wondering!) The lining is double lined, the first layer is like a cotton material, which i guess is to stop the satin from becoming too static and sticking to your legs, and the second layer is made from satin. I got it made in champagne, and it really is a lovely colour so I would definately recommend it! There is a built in bra in the dress, with a separate 'bra strap' concealed undernearth the strip at the back of the dress and there is also boning inside the bodice, which is perfect for keeping the dress up! I hope this review helps! xo By mackerel, May 2010

This is the most stunning dress. We had it custom fitted and when it arrived it was an absolutely perfect fit! Saw the same dress in a bridal shop and it cost 4 times what we paid for it.

Hi, I ordered this dress March 21 and it arrived today 6th May, just in time for my formal which was on the 8th May. I ordered the dress in black and I would highly recommend black to anyone interested in this dress. It looks absolutely stunning on and when it came to the night of the formal I received endless complements (and am still being talked about at school to this day). My only suggestions would be to order it in HEAPS OF TIME, and to be made tailored to you (I had to get the dress slightly altered around the waist area when it arrived. Hope this helps girls!!

I was very happy with this dress. I ordered it for my senior prom and it was gorgeous. As usual, I procrastinated and waited until only 15 days before my prom to order the dress.. my prom was on May 1 and I ordered the dress on April 16. It came the exact day I expected it to come (April 26). I was scared to open the box because I have never ordered any type of clothing online before, so I was afraid that it might not be what I expected. I was wrong. The dress looks exactly like it does in the picture. It has beautiful beading and flows beautifully. The fabric quality was just as I expected. It has three layers of fabric which makes for a beautiful flowing look (the bottom layer is a kindof thicker fabric, the middle is a silky fabric, and the top is a sheer flowy fabric. All of my friends and my boyfriend loved the dress too, in fact my friend is going to borrow it next weekend to wear to another school's prom she was invited to. This dress is a steal! I looked great and I spent a lot less money than other girls did on their prom dresses! By ?Megan, May 2010

I was looking for something with sleeves in a reasonable price range and came across this dress. I ordered 10 total in 2 colors and several sizes. The blue and the lavender for alternating colors in the bridal party. Here are a couple of pictures. There are small sleeves that you cannot see in the websites picture here. you can see what I'm referring to in the picture of my daughter in both colors that I'm posting. We ended up cutting the sleeves off all 10 dresses. I'm very pleased with the blue (turquoise) color. It's very bright. The fabric is not soft like chiffon but still very good. Light and comfortable.

I'm eloping to Las Vegas to get married. I needed a simple knee length white dress. I was reluctant to buy online for all the obvious reasons. I spent two months trying to find a dress. So, on May 11th, I decided to order it. I had a back-up dress just in case. I got my dress today. It's perfect. It fits like a glove. It's top quality workmanship. The neckline shows that is kinda heart shaped, but it's not, it goes straight across. That is not a problem it is still beautiful. The belt is not attached and there are no loops, but i'm glad because it looks better without a belt. I am so very pleased with my purchase. The sizing is true. I wear a 16W dress and that is what i ordered. It is not flattering to my figure but i don't have a flattering figure LOL. I have pics. My 6yr old Grandson took them so please excuse.

Amazing dress! This dress completely exceeded my expectations. The embroidery is phenominal. The dress is covered in intricate detailing. The pictures do not do it justice. All the embroidery around the midsection is completely emersed in bead work. It comes with a very nice breathable garment bag as well. I did the exact size and it is a perfect fit. Im a larger woman, about a size 14-16 normally. The dress is amazing regardless of size. I haven't figured out how to tie the train up for the reception yet, but i'm sure i will think of something. This dress is a complete steal at 229$. I saw similar dresses retail at more then 3000$. I came across this dress looking for something with straps vs the 98% of strapless dresses right now. I was forced to turn to online shopping, which i wouldn't normally risk for clothing of any kind, but im very pleased that i did. By Trista Samson, Jun 2010

so i ordered my dress and it took a total of TWO MONTHS to be made and shipped to me. luckily it made its way to my doorstep a month before prom! i ordered the dress in grape and put in my custom measurements (which were NOT my measurements because i had to get A LOT of work done to the dress!). when i opened the package, i took out the dress and saw that it had a TWO FOOT LONG TRAIN. the waist of the dress was too small and i had to get the train cut off and a gusset put in on both sides and the zipper changed. after two weeks of work and $150 spent, the dress was perfect! before you buy, READ THE REVIEWS! hopefully you won't be in the same situation as i was!

I wore this dress for my wedding 3 months ago. I loved it, I was so impressed with the quality as soon as I received it! Only thing I didnt take into account was the fact that because its shipped and packed into a box, it was creasy when I took it out of the box however once I had it steamed it looked stunning. Only other thing I would change is getting it made to size instead of the standard size that I chose because it was a little bit to long for me, but you hardly noticed at the wedding. The quality of the stiching and material of the dress is great, the boning is in all the right places, the details and sequins on the front are gorgeous. Definitley suited to bigger girls like me :-) I felt like a princess in this dress. I highly recommend. By Tasha ,Jun 2010

At first I was hesitant to buying a wedding dress online and from another country plus I hadn't heard anything about this website but after reading other reviews on the site I saw that people had good luck, so for under $300 I went for it and I am SOOOO glad I did! This dress is absolutely stunning and looks very similar to the picture above. The only thing that I will alter is the puff on the shoulder. It's smaller and lower than pictured and I looove that about the dress. This will be an easy fix as I am not worried about it! The dresses out there that look close to this style are well over $1000 and I feel very lucky and fortunate to have stumbled across this site.

I have always dreamed to have Audrey's dress for my wedding and here it has arived to me within 10 days of ordering it!! White, simple, timeless - utterly beautiful :) The dress and the veil I have ordered came in a middle sized box printed inside with flowers and a pink zipper cover for it. Everything was nicely packed. As for the quality, a whole dress is well made. I still can't believe for such a little price! I chose size 2 since my measurements are exact and the padded bodice is tight, especially underneath the arms (not too tight though). It's more like well-fitting :) Ballet-type skirt has many layers and it's just perfect. I can't wait to wear it at the wedding day! I'm certainly going to order one more dress for other occasion.

I ordered my dress on June 5th and received it today, June 23rd :o) (For references' sake, I live on the East Coast of Canada). My boyfriend and I are eloping to Florida in October for a beach wedding and I fell in love with this dress....and didn't read the million awful reviews out there until AFTER I had ordered it, so I was extremely nervous about it. I got it today and I have to say, I am VERY impressed with my $99 dress, as were my parents and older brother. It is built so sturdy, with lots of under layering and boning on the corset, not to mention a built in bra which is incredibly important for bigger chested ladies like myself in a strapless. My only real complaint is that while the dress is built VERY sturdy, the beading seems a little loose and I am worried about some of it falling off on or before my big day. By Lisa ,Jun 2010

I ordered my wedding dress, 3 bridesmaid dresses, 1 maid of honor gown and flower girl dress from LITB. We ordered custom sizes, but all the dresses still needed minor alterations - I suppose it's hard to fit into a dress like a glove if there are no opportunities to go for a fitting.

I wore this dress in 'lilac' to my school ball recently and I loved it - wish I could wear it again! It did take a while to arrive (5 weeks) so I was really worried that it wouldn't arrive in time but the shipping was amazingly fast. Unfortunately it had a really long train (like the other reviews have said) which cost alot to be removed by another seamstress. I think the silver sequins/beading looked nice with the lilac and I didn't find it tacky. The dress is gorgeous, looks just as good as the original and I'd definately recommend it! =) By Nadene ,Jun 2010

I bought one dress as a test for my bridesmaid, with the idea of buying the rest of the dresses if the first one worked out. I was SO thrilled when I saw the pictures of my sister wearing the dress and looking stunning! The boning, ruffles, zipper seams, were all perfect! Since she ordered a standard size, it was slightly tight around the middle, so she will just get it altered a little around the waist. Still, it is a small fee to get it altered compared to the full value of the dress. It's made of heavy, beautifully smooth satin fabric, and she is thinking of altering it more after the wedding to turn it into a cute little cocktail dress. It is also really long in the skirt - because my sister is pretty short - but getting it shortened is tons easier than getting it lengthened! Another thing - some people would think chocolate brown an odd color for a bridesmaid dress, but I LOVE chocolate brown, and it's one of the colors for my wedding - and though I'm biased - I think it looks absolutely beautiful!

We bought a custom sized & tailored dress of this type in ivory colour (not green as seen in the pic). We are absolutely satisfied with both the service and the dress itself. Everything was just as requested (colour, material, shape, style, size). I know many people are afraid of buying their wedding dress from a webshop (and from China) but it's so simple and fun. You measure parts of your body following the simple guidelines of lightinthebox and they produce a custom made dress for you - it's not that you must fit into a dress pre-made following a general sizechart. We made the order from Hungary (not close to China, indeed :), and shipping was fine (with DHL) - it takes a good while for the package to be shipped if you want a tailor made dress as we did but if you count with the maximum number of days promised/estimated by lightinthebox, you'll be on time for sure. The only difference in the parameters of the dress here and in real life was its weight. The whole box (which included this dress + a pair of shoes for the dress) was pretty small and weighed not more than 0.5 kg (!). And even better, the dress was not creased at all due to its material. We opened the box, hanged the dress and it was practically read to wear. By Zs ,Jul 2010

I am more than glad I did. Firstly, the fact that - for the small extra charge you can have dresses made to measure - means a saving of at least £40-£60 per dress if it had to be altered here in the UK. I had all 3 of my adult bridesmaids dresses made and they are a beautiful fit. Just the quality you would get in any bridal shop. Supported bust and lining. My size 14 and 18 bridesmaids are both very happy with the fit. I had to change my 3rd bridesmaid and so had to take the 3rd dress to be altered for the new bridesmaid. The bridal shop alteration has only cost me £40 as the dress has been made in such a way that it was a simple job to do. The alteration lady even commented on the quality of the dress. If you are worried about the measurements just stick to the website's measurement advice. My bridesmaids are wearing kitten heeled shoes but I think if they were going to wear high heels they would have needed a little extra length. I ordered Burgundy all 3 in completely different sizes and they are absolutely gorgeous. I am so happy with them. Plus even with the chinese new year holiday (their only one all year) I received them with fully trackable DHL courier in very good time. I emailed customer service so many times to check on them and they were always polite, helpful and quick to reply. I wish UK companies were so good in customer service in all honesty! I will DEFINATELY buy dresses from here again. By Sian ,Jul 2010

I __loved__ the dress. Granted, it was a bit difficult to avoid having people step on the train but thats not a large issue. I bought it for prom last year and it even has little loops you can clip bra straps on to help hold it up. EVERYONE at prom loved it. its unique and simple but elegant at the same time.

My granddaughter chose her dress from Light in the Box, it was for a prom. Our order was handled professionally, and in a timely manner. From measuring right down to delivery was a simple process. We were concerned it would not arrive in time for the prom, but, not to worry, it arrived with days to spare. It was so well made, from the underskirt, the rouching of the bodice, the lace right down to the hem! See for yourself! By Jeanne Burns ,Jul 2010

while my dress DID take quite a while to arrive, when it did, i fell in love with it! I wore it to my prom and got soo many compliments on it. I did need to have it altered a bit. the train was quite long but the seamstress added a small button to the back so it could be busseled because the train was too gorgeous to remove completely! the bead work was very nice as well. There were a few stains on the dress when I got it, however the dry cleaners was able to remove them. Overall I am extremely pleased with this purchase! By M ,Aug 2010

I bought this for my sister-in law's wedding in Dark Navy--received it super quickly (less than 2 weeks) and am really happy with it. I am VERY very picky and usually would only buy a designer dress- but totally fell in love with this. Quality was amazing--tons of layers, excellent fabric, perfect color match, measurements exactly as listed. I paired it with a gold belt and sewed in some Carolina Herrera cotton tulle in the back opening for some modesty. It was VERY long- I'm 5'6 and I kept tripping over it--should have altered the length-- but it looked very cool because it swept the floor. Will definitely buy from LIB again. Since this dress didn't have any beading or embelishments- it looked truly like the original. By Stephanie ,Aug 2010

Hi, I ordered this dress in a medium size. The dress arrived yesterday and took 11 days to arrive to Australia. It looks just amazing! The dress looks the same as in the picture. I ordered a size too big so it's a little big, but only by a cm or so. It's quite long so I am going to have it hemed but that is usual with all dresses, and the straps are a little long so I am also going to have them taken up slightly. However that is all pretty normal stuff for an "off-the-rack" dress and its a simple fix. Its a slightly more peachy-pink colour than the photo, but that may just be my monitor, but still a beautiful colour. The only fault in it is that its a number of layer (lining, tule, satin, chiffon), one of which is a tule but it starts just below the hips. I am quite curvy so it shows slightly where it starts if you look closely, so I am just going to have it removed because it doesn't even need it, it will flow stright down without it. However if you don't have a very curvy figure it would be fine. This also may be fixed by trimming it from the hem, easy to do. P.S: One photo is taken with a flash, one without, the full length photo looks a little orange, its not that colour in real life, its still a soft pink dress. By G ,Aug 2010

See More Quick Delivery Dresses>>Wore this dress for my sister's wedding...
Let me just note that prior to encountering this website, I've searched for 4 months in multiple malls for a dress suitable but simple for my sister's wedding but was ultimately disappointed because the dresses I liked did not fit my petite figure. PRICING: When I found this dress, I was very happy because even with custom sizing (an extra $29.99) this dress came to $99.99 only. So the total of the dress including shipping was cheaper than a dress that I could find that may not fit me properly. SHIPPING:The dress, since it was custom made, took a little over two months to arrive at my door. It arrived squished in a surprisingly small box, which will most likely require steam ironing before wear. IMPRESSION:I was very pleasantly surprised with the color I had chosen (chocolate brown), the material (a heavier, thicker satin which looks and feels good), the cutting (it had a very nice flare to it), as well as the details (there is an elastic right below the breast to help keep the tube dress up, it was such a small gesture/detail but made the dress so much better) MOBILITY: A very important thing to consider if you were expected to be walking around all day. The dress, with the help of the elastic below the breast, stayed on surprisingly better than most tube dresses I own, and I did not have to fix it very often. It was a very good length to allow for me to carry a lot of things around, and as it was made of a heavier/thick satin material, did not get stuck on anything at all. IMPROVEMENT:The only fault, if any, was that the cup they had inserted into the dress was too big for my breasts. The fit was still snug but the cup was not at all the same shape/size as my breasts and, to me, looked a bit odd. I've included the picture of it from the side. OVERALL: I was very pleased with the dress still, and it received quite a bit of compliments that night! A tip for custom sizing - I had wanted the dress to be a perfect fit, and because I have a petite figure, I know how easy it would be for dresses to look big on me. I had actually subtracted half an inch~an inch or so from my real measurements and submitted those. The end result was very good, and you can see that in the picture I've attached.

Ordered this dress last year for our work's Christmas ball in the shown colour - couldn't believe the quality of the dress and the detail on it when it got here. It fitted absolutely perfectly, as I had ordered it on the made to measure service as I am unusual proportions because of my job and taller than most. Fortunately I did cheat and add a couple of extra inches around the hips, which was useful as it gave me a bit more play in the dress when it came to sitting down! The dress proved very popular with my colleagues, with many of them telling me they wanted to borrow it in future years!!! For anyone considering this dress, I would heartily recommend it if you want the added wow factor, and I would definitley use this service again - just be aware of the additional import tax bill that follows from DHL a month or so later than delivery (think I had to pay about £20 - can't remember exactly but was no more than that).

tmuffins@abcs.com Order #0908270600303830 I ordered this dress for my 15 year old daughter to wear in her oldest brother's wedding. Like many other reviewers I wasn't sure about ordering online without seeing or feeling the material. However when the dress arrived we were quite happy. The rich chocolate color was lovely, the fabric weight was nice and the quality of construction was flawless. The dress fit perfectly except the length. The directions on the website say "measure from hollow to floor without shoes". Do not measure without shoes! We were able to embellish the hem with lace to achieve the correct length. The price was good plus I found a coupon online and Lightinthebox gave me a credit for the length error. I am always impressed with a company that will go the extra mile to make a customer happy. I will buy from them again and would recommend them to everyone. By Tina ,Aug 2010

So many compliments asking wear I bought it:) Also I had to iron the chiffon a little in the areas that didn't have ruffles.

I got seven of these for my bridesmaids in GREEN. It is darker than the picture, and the rhinestones on the straps are big and there are a ton of them. We ended up taking all of them off and sewing the rhinestones on the waist to make some definition. The skirt is shorter than the picture, and the bodice is too long to be empire and too short to go down to the waist. Still, they turned out pretty and looked great. GREEN is more of an olive green, not mossy like the picture shows. I have attached a picture of how they looked when they arrived and how they turned out. By Lizzylou ,Aug 2010

See More Quick Delivery Dresses>>Seriously, LOVE. Shipped incredibly fast!,
ok, so THANK GOD my friend had already ordered a dress from here for her wedding and was able to "vouch" for this site and their quality. I was all set to order from one of the competitor's site (the "imposter" sites, apparently) but was nervous because they had VERY few reviews there. So about lightinthebox.com I can confidently say they are AWESOME. You always hear "if it sounds to good to be true it usually is" and I was warned by may that if the dresses were this cheap there "must be something wrong with them." I can say, NOPE and NOPE. I ordered my dresses (yes, ES. At this price I ordered a ceremony AND a reception dress) on Friday, May 28th, think I finalized the oder around 9:30 pm. I recieved them yesterday (June 10th). Amazing! So about this dress specifically. It is kind of hard to imagine as Ivory because of the colors of the sample photographed, so I photoshopped it (see photo) before ordering. I read alot about the dresses being a little big in the bust, so I took a chance and ordered a size DOWN. (a 6. Risky, I know) I am sooo glad to report that while snug, it fits! Pretty sure I would have had it taken in if I had ordered the 8. So I think even after I drop a few lbs, it will still fit without having to be altered. The only thing I will need to do (unless I wear reeeealy high platform heels) is take about 3-5" off the length. I am fairly short though (5'4") so you tall gals should be fine. The satin they use is as advertised, it is a nice heavyweight beautiful "bridal" satin. It isn't thing or cheap looking AT ALL (it is seriously like what you'd get from David's, Alfred Angelo, most designer boutiques, etc). The tulle is also nice and fairly soft (not like the scratchy vintage tulle) AND all of the dresses are FULLY lined, so your legs will never have to feel the tulle (and pantyhose, if worn, won't snag on it). I personally don't feel like this dress needs any more petticoats or a hoop skirt, but I guess that's up to you. (It already has like 3 layers under the satin). A couple things to note: 1. The sash shown is sewn into the dress! It isn't pictured this way, but it is. not a big deal, but I was considering using a colored sash, so it just slightly complicated things (I can remove the bow and tie another sash over the existing if I reeeeeally think I need/want it). 2. The black flower's on the top of the bodice are really cheezy and look a little cheap. I will totally be removing them (but then, I knew this before I even ordered). They are strange, and look out of place. But then, they did on the original (Vera) as well. oh, and shipping/packaging. It'll arrive in a smaller box than you'd think. However, they are packing genius's, the dresses come out with very few wrinkles. I ordered 2 dresses, a veil, a shrug, hairpins, headband, and a feather headpiece thing and it shipped in a box approx 20" x 12" 12". The shipping was ridiculously fast. It shipped either Mon the 7th or Tues the 8th (says one thing one place, another another place) and arrive the 10th. SERIOUSLY. A M A Z I N G. Now I can't say that is always goes down like this, but it did for me! They sent me a nice pink garmet pag too. Overall I am completely satisfied with the quality and fit of this dress. If it weren't so damn expensive to ship, I'd order from them all the time! An amazing Vera Wang(ish) for less than $250 (shipped) in 2 weeks, that everyone will think was $1-$2K+. Yes please!

The entire Light in the Box Experience was great. I was a little nervous because I ordered the dress in champagne only 5 weeks before the wedding. It arrived in 3 weeks, thankfully. The champagne color was beautiful and the quality of the dress amazing... definitely exceeded my expectations. It arrived a small box just like Lauren and Angel described... folded inside out. Counting the toole, satin and inside petticoat there are about 4 layers. I removed the cheap looking embellishments and bow. The size grid was right on and the dress fit perfectly (ordered a size 4), with the exception of the hem. I let the dress hang for a several days and then took a fairly hot iron to get out the creases from shipping. Because of all the layers it cost around $90 for the hem. Overall, a very good value for my dollar. Once the hem, gown, and shipping were all done, the dress cost me around $300. It looks like a $600-$800 dress from a bridal gown store. I didn't add any extra hoop or petticoat beneath the dress because my wedding was a simple outdoor ceremony at a vineyard, so I wasn't going for a full gown. I received many compliments on my dress and could not have been happier. I would highly recommend Light in the Box. They were very responsive when I had email questions and sent email updates. One of the photos I've included will give you a good idea of the layers in the dress. By Lee ,Aug 2010

K - so dress arrived yesterday (delivered within 2 weeks, I'm in Quebec, Canada). Very well made, the upper portion has boning in it which is great for support, but the bottom is a but "puffier" than I would have liked. I did not do the custom sizing, but instead ordered a size bigger (as most of the reviewers recommended) and it is quite big on the top. The "pointed" ends are quite long so I'll have to get a few alterations done, to take it in and to shorten it. If anyone want's a pic just email me: frosty_cherry@hotmail.com But all in all, I'm quite happy with Light in the Box! Easy shopping, quick delivery - quite impressive. By Jennifer ,Aug 2010

See More Quick Delivery Dresses>>LOVE my dress!
I took a chance and ordered this beautiful dress on 11th June 2010 and it arrived on my doorstep yesterday, 2nd July. Very quick indeed. It really is utterly amazing how they pack so much into such a small box! I ordered this dress and the recommended petticoat, a ring pillow and a garter, total cost £190. However I also had to pay DHL who delivered the parcel a further £20.89 for Customs and VAT charges, which I was less than happy about yesterday! I emailed LightInTheBox about it and read up about it on the internet and discovered that not all parcels get charged for duty and VAT at customs so I’m just unlucky that they checked my parcel and added a charge – it is not a charge that LightBox could have foreseen but it’s worth bearing in mind if you make an order, that you may have to pay a little more for your item when you receive it. When I opened the ordinary looking brown box, I found it’s covered in pretty roses inside and my dress was perfectly packaged. I opened the petticoat first, thinking ‘I thought this was supposed to be hooped, it’s so small’ and then it popped open into it’s three hoops and it’s HUGE, I can’t for the life of me fold it back up and it really is very big! The dress came inside out to protect the front and it’s just stunning. I ordered it in ivory and it’s gorgeous. I will attach pictures also. I agree with Angel’s review that the little black flowers on the top of the bodice look a bit cheesy/silly and I’ll probably take them off too. The quality of the dress is fantastic – there is no way anyone would think you paid less than £600, it’s just so well made. The satin is very good quality. I know this because I ordered a dress from China on Ebay from selecting a picture of a dress I liked and got a very poor imitation for my money. The satin on the LightBox dress is a hundred times better than the polyester satin used on the first dress I bought from China on Ebay. The skirt of the dress is very fine netting on top which hangs perfectly over the satin skirt beneath. There are then layers of thick net beneath the satin, to give it it’s shape, and then a lining skirt too. Personally, I won’t be wearing the petticoat as the dress looks much more ethereal without it and is just seriously huge with the petticoat added in. However, if you want to look like a princess and have a large Cinderella style skirt, then the petticoat will be perfect for you as it gives you a really large ball gown shape. To be honest, the petticoat only cost £17, so it was worth ordering it just to see if I needed it. The satin ribbon on the bodice is sewn really well so that the dress holds it’s shape when you wear it. There is also elastic inside the bodice at the back like a bra strap to hold it in place – very clever. The fit is lovely, slightly too big for me on the bodice but I think that’s more because I measured my chest wrong – you really shouldn’t do it yourself! But the waist and hips are just perfect, and I can definitely take it in slightly on my bust – or get a strapless bra, no problem. All in all, if you are worried about the quality you will receive from LightBox, don’t be. They are different to other sites that offer to make dresses for you because the pictures of the dresses you are viewing are owned by them – they are their designs, whereas other people are showing you an image of a dress that does not belong to them and making a dress a little bit different to the picture to avoid copyright – trust me, I learnt the hard way and wasted £100 on a dress that looked nothing like the picture! I’m so happy that I bought this dress, I just can’t wait to wear it on my big day! Hope this review helps you make up your mind. Good luck everyone.xx By Lauren ,Aug 2010

Hello - here are pictures of my dress with the adjustments and personal touches I made. It turned out wonderfully and now I think I will dye it green so I can keep wearing it - I may decide to shorten it in the future, but I'll keep it long for now! By TLW ,Aug 2010

I was a little apprehencive about ordering my wedding dress off of the internet but I must admit it was a very good choice. I ordered the dress a few months before my wedding because I thought it would take a while to get it but to my susprize it came in only two weeks. The dress fit like a glove and is a top quality garment. I must say this was the best way to go. My wedding was just as I had always emagined and the dress was beyond words. Thanks, Light in the Box!

I wore this gown for my wedding. I made some very simple changes, I added pearl like buttons down the back and I changed the lace band under the bust. Simple changes that made it unique for me. It was a light flowing gown and photographed so beautifully! By Marisa Love ,Sep 2010

I bought this dress for my wedding in April. It arrived in under a month which I thought was very good. I did'nt get a dressmaker to fit me, I did it myself, but I believe it to be very accurate as I measured myself about 6 times to be sure! Unfortunatly when the dress arrived it was about 2 sizes too big for me. That is quite a big difference so I don't know how it went wrong. But better too big than too small I say! When buying the dress I asked one of the online sales reps what colour the sash was on the dress pictured and was told pink. However the pink was a sickly lolly pink which didn't match the ivory of the dress. I really wanted a vintage dusky pink colour so I bought the fabric colour I wanted and set out to find a dress maker. It was hard to find a dressmaker that would do a good job for a good price but in the end I found a clothing alterations shop who was awesome. I had 3 fitings and had the dress resized to fit me perfectly and also made some changes to the design for $300 NZ. So all up I paid $700 NZ for the dress, which I was extremely happy with for a dress I will only wear once! The changes to the style that we made were: -Attaching a hook under the zip where the train could be hooked up when I was dancing etc. (I highly recomend this as it looked realy lovely up aswell as down) -Making the train slightly shorter at the sides as it didnt sit particulary well when hooked up -Made the dress tighter at the thigh all the way down to the knee so it fish tailed more as I didn't like the A-Frame style -Replaced the sash for a different colour and made it tie up at the back -added in bra inserts so that I didn't have to wear a bra You could tell the fabrics were not high quality but only by looking up very close and the beading on this dress is quite lovely Buying this dress online was a real risk but one I am happy I took. It can be stressful when you can't try a dress on before you buy it but I think if you don't hold high expectations that the dress will be perfect when it arrives and order it early so you have enough time to fix it up then it is worth your while, especially if you don't want to pay the big money for a dress in a shop. Hope this helps! Happy Shopping! By Dee Archibald ,Sep 2010
