My bridal party are all different shapes and sizes and I want them to be comfortable... but I am obsessed with this dress!!!

Your best bet would be to find it and have a few different people try it on. Let your girls know that this is what you are thinking and ask if any could check out a nearby bridal shop and let you know what they think. Even if your BM can't do it, you could always try it on yourself and get an idea of what it looks like on a real person.

Omg I love it! Mine looks a little like that actually... But I went with a Davids Bridal option... Anyway! My girls are all totally diff shapes and sizes and the flowy a line works for hippy or non existent hips! The bodice should be flattering on all as well, def get their opinions and have them try it on! What color are you thinking?

Two of my bridesmaids are wearing this dress! I've tried it on myself, too. It's a gorgeous dress & I absolutely love it! With the a-line cut and the ruffles it is very flattering.

Thank you Ladies! I just had my bridesmaids go to look at dresses and we found one very similar... just when we were about to pretty much go with that one I found the the actual dress above!!! It was destiny!!! Someone else must have been trying it on at the time we were looking. It looks amazing and I can't wait for everyones dress to arrive!
