YES to the Dress!!
 

When I first signed up for this site, I set a goal to be able to fit into a dress I bought for my friend's wedding in late August. At the time this thing wouldn't even zip up past my waist (it's one of those horrid side-zippers). It was a 10, and I hadn't been a 10 since I was 15.

Well, today I managed to get the zipper up completely and do up the clasp at the top. It's still tight, but I think in 5-10 pounds it'll fit perfectly, and I'm just thrilled.

It's basically that style, only in black with a gold sash and made of a crepe-like raw silk.

OH...That is really exciting... great job... its a beautiful style dress...

Congratulations! Love the dress, I like it in pink too.
