I am sold on this dress for an elopement trip coming up! Are there any flaws to the dress or specifically the white material that would show in photos? I’m going to measure myself, I’m PRAYING this fits! It’s PERFECT!

@jen_akgirl_47 Hi! This would be perfect for your elopement trip! It is just beautiful and only worn once. This is a rare find and is a custom made vintage designer piece. I double checked everything on the outside of the dress that might show up negatively in photos and I couldn’t find anything. On the lining inside of the bodice, there is some perspiration staining (this would not detract). The measurements listed are all taken lying flat. Please let me know if you need other details.

@prepare_d what is High length and low length?
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 Hi!
The high length is 32” and low is 54”
Hope that helps.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d I mean what is that measured from? So I can measure myself I’ve never had to measure myself lol.
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 No worries. That is from the top of the dress at the shoulder to the hem.
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 I wanted to clarify. The measurement for you should be measured from your collar bone for the high and measurement below the back at your shoulder line. Hope that makes sense.
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 I found a site that may help. I can’t add a link but if you search this title you may find it. It is “A Guide To Dress Lengths: Find The Perfect Fit For Your Height”.
Hope this helps.

@prepare_d you’re actually awesome for that! I will check that out when I get home and let’s pray this is the dress!!
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d ohkay, I finally got ahold of a measuring tape, but it’s looking like 54” would touch the bottom of my feet.. did I do it wrong? It looks like a shorter dress. I am 5’4”..
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d also is the armpit measurement the bust size?
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 It seems like you measured properly. Would you be wearing heels or flats? In my opinion heels would look best with the dress. You could choose the height you want.
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 The armpit to armpit measurement is the bust. So laying flat it is 16. That equates to a 32 chest.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d I’m going to have to remeasure the bust then sorry I’ve never done this! 🫣
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 It’s okay. You might want to consider your bra size.
prepare_d
Don’t consider the cup size.
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 Just out of curiosity, what size dress do you normally wear?
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d my band size it a 34 and a little loose. I’ve recently lost a lot of weight and am unsure of my real sizes anymore even pants. 😭 if I put the tape around my upper body though it looks like it’s 36 but I don’t know if I’m doing it correctly.
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 measure where the band of your bra would sit.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d yep that’s what’s 36” 😩😭
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d I was absolutely set on this dress! 😫
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 Let me just able check the measurement one more time.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d ohkay, 🤞🏼
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 I remeasured and added a photo so you can see it. It measures 17”.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d so it will work??
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 just a thought… Another option is to go into a lingerie dept store and ask the sales lady to do your measurements. They are pros and can help out so you’ll know for next time.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d I’m going to double check my measurements with some help tomorrow and if I think I can make it work I’m going to go ahead and place the order!
prepare_d
@jen_akgirl_47 All good! Have a good rest tonight.
jen_akgirl_47
@prepare_d thank you!
