I am 5'6" and will probably wear fairly high heels, Do you think I will be tall enough to pull it off?

    I can go down there but as they stock thousands of dresses they cant guarantee they will have it in.
  • oh well i wouldnt wanna take the chance on buyin it and it not looking right also u may try it on and decide its not actually the dress for you (i thought i knew what dress i wanted till i tried it on)

    alot of other wedding shops and people on here advise going into a shop and tryin on different styles before buyin on the internet as what looks good on a hanger/model doesnt always look good on yourself

    Ok, Thanks for your help, Im going to try more on next weekend so will see how I get on
  • hopefully if u call into a shop they might have that design for you to try or you could research on the net to see who designs it then find a local stockist to try on xx

    Definitely! Just make sure you have bridesmaids to support the train if necessary, you don't want to get it dirty in wet weather. Good luck :beer: .
