PLEASE NOTE - This dress is in amazing condition. I wore sticky tape so my breast stayed in place and that stickiness didnt come off completely on the Inside no signs on the outside. I would assume that most brides would wear similar tape so should not effect the dress in anyway.
Also, The 3D Flower in the back of the dress. I think looks more worn then in the professional photos. I dont recall if it came that way or maybe it was from the dry cleaning. If you dont like the flower any alterations place can take it off with a clip. When I purchased at http://www.thedresstheory.com/ in San Deigo they told me that many brides want to be more conservative and take off the flower. I liked it and kept in one the dress.
I am 5'7 and 132 pds. I normally wear a size 4 or 6 in dresses. The street size for this dress is an 8 or 6
