The invisible zip is a bit tricky right at the thick waist seam, so you'll definitely need a bridesmaid mate to help you get dressed. Once it was on though, the built-in bust support was brilliant and I felt secure even while jumping around on the dance floor.

I mean, the dress is stunning, but the zip was a bit tricky around the waist. Thank goodness the material isn't see-through at all under the venue lights.

Being a bridesmaid means standing around for ages for photos, and this dress made it a breeze. The A-line cut gave my tummy plenty of breathing room after the three-course meal. I did notice the satin gets a tiny bit static in dry weather, but some anti-static spray sorted it right out.

I was worried the satin would cling to everything, but the A-line cut really hides the tummy when sitting down. The only thing is it looks a bit shinier in flash photos than in real life, but it's nothing major.

Absolutely beautiful and super comfy for the whole ceremony. No problems at all with the sleeves slipping.
