So ultimately, we are in love with this dress. It is beautiful and the quality is what you would expect for the price. With that being said, the dress runs very small. Despite ordering the size recommended based on my daughter's measurements, it is at least one size too small and we are having massive alterations done so she can wear it (a testament to how beautiful the dress is). I am doubtful I would order from this seller again. Besides a single email telling me I would get an email notification when our order shipped, the seller refused to respond to emails (I was looking for information that would let me know if the dress was likely to arrive in time and with time for alterations if needed and whether they also sold the hair piece shown in the photographs of the dress... I understand it can be hard to pin down an exact timeframe on when items like this will be completed but a simple response that gave me some info. on recent turn around times would have been appreciated.) I expect better customer service when I spend this much on a child's garment so, this retailer isn't for me.
