Fit and Sizing

When taking measurements for Summer, pay attention to the bust and waist measurements. Our Dresses are made-to-order which means they may not fit to your exact measurements. Once you select your color and size based on our measurement guide, we then make your dress! Oftentimes, alterations are needed once you receive your dress. The most common alterations needed are the bust, straps, and a hem. This is something your local seamstress can do!

The Summer dress accommodates for a height of up to 5'11", but can be hemmed to fit shorter heights.

Fabric and Care

Summer is made from a chiffon fabric which is comfortable to wear and similar in quality to silk, but much easier to clean and care for. This dress is dry clean optional, but can also be washed regularly at home on a delicate cycle. Best of all, the exceptional quality of the chiffon means Summer will hold up over multiple washes so you can make the most of your dress.

Very cute, my favorite of the 4 dresses I tried. Is long and runs large in the bust, but waist it pretty true to size. I’m 5’3 and 115 lbs — wearing a size 4 with 4” heels on in this photo. Will definitely need to also pay for alterations.

Beautiful color but runs large

I’m always a zero in bridesmaid dresses that are not fitted around the hips. This dress isn’t hip hugging, so order based ONLY on your bust and waist. Typically 0 are a little tight but still comfortable, but this 0 was not tight at all. I had room in my waist but it wasn’t alteration worthy. The bust was HUUUGEEEE on me. I’m a size B cup but this dress could’ve held a size D. I don’t know many size 0 people with D cup... but I guess the dressmakers wanted to leave room for that. The straps come with a hook and eye, so you can wear the straps straight back or cross crossed. The length is very long (as stated in the description it fits a 5’11” height). I wore 5inch wedges to give me the height to avoid alterations. Bridesmaids aren’t the center of attention so who cares if you don’t look perfect:) Overall, the color Fog was GORGEOUS and the dress quality was good. I’m just disappointed that it ran large for me.

Nice dress, weird top sizing

I like this dress a lot. It fits perfectly around the waist but the cups are way too big. I'm going to have to get it hemmed as well as fixing the straps. Otherwise it's great.

As I saw in other reviews, the bust area is HUGE and I will have to get it altered, although I’m not sure how they will be able to take away that much padding/fabric. The dress is the quality I expected, not great, not terrible. The length is also very long and will have to take about 11 inches off (I’m short but still very long).

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback! Alterations are pretty standard when it comes to formal wear! It can help adjust certain areas of a dress that are too big or small creating a more customized fit. Please email us at info@kennedyblue.com if you have any questions or concerns~

Not really a fits all size

It zips up just fine but I’ll have to cut off about a foot (I’m really short) and the top is made for a woman who has a large bust. I’m a B and the top fits my friend who is a D. So if you’re small busted, expect to alter or go with a different style. Otherwise, it’s a beautiful dress and I love the sea glass color! Once altered it will be awesome!

Great Color in need of some Alterations

The Sage color is gorgeous. The size I purchased fits wonderfully at my waist so my measurements were right on for that. For some reason he bust is super duper off. Maybe a size 6 women is supposed to have much much large bust than I have but will need to significantly get that taken in. I'm also 5'9 and even in heels the dress drags a lot. Good price, don't mind getting these few things done to make it perfect for my best friend's big day.
