      Another Winning Dress

      The Empress embroidered dress in Forest is another winner from Nine Lives Bazaar.

      Beautiful colour and style and the embroidery is so dreamy. I’m an 8 in NLB and got a 10 in this, but should’ve stuck with my usual size. So I recommend sticking with your usual size.

      Love embroidery detail

      Purchased in the sale and it’s a really lovely dress the material is soft and the colour is like toffee with the beautiful embroidery. Love the little panel under the buttons saves my terrible hand sewing on my beautiful NLB dresses that I do.

      Nice quality and style

      This dress fits me really well and is flattering as well as comfortable. I love the modesty panel as I’m big busted and other styles such as the gorgeous empire gape a bit to show my bra.

      The colour combination is beautiful as the embroidery pops with its earthy base

      Daughter of the Bride

      I bought this dress to wear to my Mum's wedding. It is in a couple of weeks, and I will post a photo. My father died 4 years ago, and it has been difficult to see my mum with someone else. I have come to peace with it and just wanted to look nice and feel comfortable. This dress is better that I was expecting I am so happy it is very comfortable but also beautiful.
