English Garden Dress

I bought this dress the second I saw it because I thought it was one of the more unique dresses I have ever seen. I LOVE how "princessy" I feel in these bigger dresses. It both looks an feels expensive. I wore it for out national holiday here in Norway (17-mai) and I think maybe 10 people came up to say they loved the dress. And believe me when I say, Norwegians are not known for being that forward, hehe. I felt amazing.

As I've written in another review on another dress (the Amelia dress) - the bust is a bit too big for me, even with a D bra size. Which is a bit of a bummer, because it's expensive to get it alterered and I feel a bit too old to stuff my bra. :P It's also a little bit big for me in the waist, but I was scared that the L would be too small as there's a zipper and not a smock-type of top. I'm right in the middle of a L and a XL - 34/35 inch waist or a 88-89 cm. But it's not waaay to big, and it doesn't hurt to have another inch in case of weight gain.

I've bought 5 new dresses today for christmas and a holiday after new years, so I can't wait to review them too.

I really love this brand and what they do for size inclusivity.

The only bummer is that I have to pay an enormous amount of taxes to get it into the country, so every dress is double in prize for me. But that apparently doesn't stop me! <3

I absolutely adore the English Garden dress! The quality is so good and the colors are so vibrant. I wore it to a wedding and received so many compliments from other wedding guests who I didn't even know. The wedding photographer recognized the dress as a Jessa Kae dress!

Big shout-out to the Jessa Kae customer service team who allowed me to exchange the XXS for an XS at no cost, since the XXS was too tight on me. Their customer service was speedy and I am so happy with the XS! For reference, I am 5'3" and a little over 100 lbs. If you're thinking about getting this dress, do it! I can't wait to wear it again.
