Get Cutie Iris Starlett Dress

I've been so excited to show you this dress! This dress is from Get Cutie down in Brighton. I went into the shop and tried on the Starlett dress in a size 24. Since it was such a good fit I decided to take the plunge and order one in the Iris print fabric. This fabric is by Michael Miller, and makes a beautiful dress fabric. 

I spent three nervous weeks waiting for the dress to arrive, hoping the sizing was as good as the one in the shop and that the print would suit the style of dress. Well I was thrilled when the package arrived and inside was this beautiful retro vintage cut dress. This is the best shot of the day (my I don't know how to pose pose!):
Size wise this dress is pretty good. There's plenty of room in the bust and the gathering detail on the waist sits beautifully. The fabric is cotton and there's no stretch whatsoever I would say I am the waist/underbust measurement limit for Get Cutie dresses - still I managed to wear this dress all day for a wedding in relative comfort.
The wedding was amazing and the wedding car was just fantastic!
This dress is not for the faint hearted is shows a far amount of cleavage eek! Cheers!
I did manage to coordinate with a bridesmaid (my lovely cousin) by accident! 
Great minds do think alike though!

    Oh wendy you look so good in this! I have the same dress in a chinese crane print and i almost made it my wedding dress. I found the cut to be superb, although i have to pin the bust. But i have to do that on virtually everything, so...

      Thanks, It is a gorgeous dress isn't it? Do you have any other Get cutie Dresses? They are a bit addictive aren't they? I have a half sleeve dress in the Lady Yang fabric which is amazing on. I would love a get cutie wedding dress.
