    Just remember that wedding dresses sometimes run on the small size so if you have to go up a size or two from normal don't feel bad it happens to a lot of people. Even skinny people.

    I ordered a 16, but I have a feeling it is going to be a little large. I put on the sample which is a 14, and it fit nicely. A year and a half ago, I would have been a size 20 or 22. I recently have lost over 90lbs. You all look beautiful in your dresses, and do not let anyone tell you differently! Smiley smile

    This post just made me feel so excited!! NONE of you look "plus size" but everyone EVERYONE looks so stunningly gorgeous!

    No Maggie here either. I'm regularly an 18 but this dress is a 16W (I typically can't wear W sizes because they fit me weirdly in different areas. But, I've lost 15lbs since this pic was taken, so I think the dress fits me a little better now.

    I think my dress was ordered in a 22, but that was mostly to cover my bobbage. I lost a lot of weight between ordering the dress and having my 1st fitting, but they said I still needed that size so there would be enough material to hike the "ladies" up and keep them covered.
