Dress was altered/brought up at the shoulders to cover her chest and excess material in the skirt removed. I have included the picture from Etsy as well, which is the last photo. I think the alteration helped it fit pretty standard. I was surprised at how much excess the dress had when it arrived (online order) but it definitely was perfect to match my wedding. No regrets. The neck area is a little more of a challenge when putting on the dress, a snap was added. Dress will include the sash but not the headband.
