It fitted quite snugly around the waist, so I didn't need it taking in much there, though it was a bit too long for my height even with heels on.

I absolutely loved the V-neck cut; it felt elegant without being too revealing for a day event. The cut-out detail at the back added a lovely modern touch that my friends gave me loads of compliments on.

The cut is really flattering and hugs your curves in all the right places. I was a bit worried the cut-out might look tacky, but it’s actually done quite tastefully. The only thing is the zip felt a little stiff at first, so just be gentle with it. Once it was on, I felt absolutely lovely watching the sunset. It’s a brilliant choice if you want to look stylish without breaking the bank.

I picked up this dress for the reception because I wanted something a bit more lightweight to change into after the ceremony. It was absolutely spot on! The sleeveless style meant I could move my arms about easily, which was essential for hugging all the guests and throwing the bouquet. The lace isn't itchy at all, which is a massive bonus as I've got quite sensitive skin.

It does crease a bit easily if you're sat in the car for too long, so pop a steamer in your bag if you're travelling with it.
