Beautiful dress, had to resize it

The dress was lovely, though the sizing runs on the large side. Most of my daughter's wardrobe is 24 mos/2T, but the 2T was very large on her and we had to have it altered for the wedding she was to wear the dress for. If you look at the sizing chart, it tells you the exact measurments of each size and I knew it would be big before purchasing it, but that is the dress the bride wanted, so we bought it anyway. One problem we had was that my daughter kept pulling the flowers off the front of it! They are hot-glued to the clasps that hold them onto the dress, so we ended up sewing them onto the clasps which worked fine. The dress arrived on time and was well packed and I would purchase from this vendor again, no problem. I gave it 4 stars because of the hot glue attachment on the clasps...sewing would have been better.
