Dress size 14 - Street Size 12. Dress pics??

Hey guys.. So I have my first dress appointment this Saturday!! I have a dress that I am in love with, but I am having MAJOR anxiety about the dress looking horrible on me!! I have looked at every picture I can find of real brides in it, but I doubt any of them are my size. I am a size 12 in jeans...

Hey guys.. So I have my first dress appointment this Saturday!! I have a dress that I am in love with, but I am having MAJOR anxiety about the dress looking horrible on me!! I have looked at every picture I can find of real brides in it, but I doubt any of them are my size. I am a size 12 in jeans and in June when I tried on a bridesmaid dress I was a size 14 in the dress. I would love to see you in your size 14 dresses!! I'm having an incredibly difficult time trying to figure out if I'm going to look half decent in a dress or not. And I'm starting to freak out.

So if you're a street size 12 or if your wedding dress is a size 14, I would greatly appreciate it if you could post your dress for me!!

    I'm a street size 12. I was told I was between 14 and 16 and decided to go with a bigger size to be safe. Turns out it was better because I need that extra room now Smiley sad

    I'm a 16 but I had the same worry. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount I liked! You'll rock it!

    I'm a street size 8 and ordered a size 14. It's supposed to be in this month and I'm so excited for it. You will find something I promise! I actually almost went with a form fitting but fell in love with a fuller A line. Rock it girl and have fun. Don't worry about your size!

    I'm a size 10/12 normally but wear a size 14 wedding dress. I felt bad about it at first but Bridal and fancy dresses in general run very small.

    @Norma I got it from Tiffany's Bridal. I would tell you who the designer was, but I haven't even the slightest clue. I tried on 3 dresses (this was the third) and threw in the towel because I was so disinterested. I'm the worst bride. Haha

    I'm usually size 8. I tried this 12 but it's too tight on the back so they suggested a size 14.

    That range of street sizes vs. wedding dress sizes is vast! Some designers are pretty on point but some are way off. (Like myself) My dress is Justin Alexander and it was ordered in a size 16. I tried in a 12 in the store that zipped and buttoned but was definitely too tight to party in. I normally wear a dress size 6 or 8.

    Dont get overwhelmed by dress sizing it is wayyy off and varies by designer. My cousin who is literally a size 2 at most had a size 10 dress so go figure
