    I'm 5'2-5'3 and found that fit and flares were better for me. Fuller dresses made me look like a short cupcake. I don't think its too much!

    I'm 5'3" and very petite and I got a modified A-line. I didn't want to get lost in my dress either. I think the dress you have picked out would work fine!!

    Im 5'2 and wearing a Vera Wang ball gown.

    I dont care if it makes me look shorter, thats the dress I wanted. Plus I personally am not a huge fan of fit and flare or mermaid style dresses, (I dont think that look that good on me).

    In any case, im wearing tall shoes.

    I'm 5'3" and a little curvy so this one worked for me. Also I'm 43 so I was looking for something age-appropriate. Excuse the grimace on my face. I was still crying a little Smiley smile

    I'm 5'2 and 110-111 pounds so the trumpet style worked best for me! Can't wait to get my dress

    Here is mine I am 5'2 and not telling how much I weigh!!! hahaha I think it makes me look way taller/slimmer than I actually am. It is a dropped waist A-line I think...

    I'm 4'11 and about 120 pounds. I loved my dress, even though 'they' say us short girls shouldn't wear something this full. Do what feels right to YOU. :-)
