Beautiful black ballgown. Wore one time for matron of honor in my friends wedding. Galina Signature- Size 8. The only alteration that was done was hemming it. I am petite . 4’11- 5’0”. Other than that it fit very true to size for standard size 8 Paid $300 plus almost $200 for alteration. So if you are petite like me, this is a great option for you to avoid alteration costs.
