The last ones real cute, maybe layering something with it could make it a cute casual outfit

You almost always have to size up two sizes when trying on wedding or even prom dresses I learned. I bet if you tried again you’d find some :) love the challenge

Remember vintage sizing is crazy different. A size 8 vintage is a 2 or a 4 depending on the period/ cut of the dress.

This is extremely realistic. When I tried on vintage dresses they looked really good… as long as you ignore the fact the back couldn’t close. 🤣

I thrifted a gorgeous designer 50s two piece ball gown style wedding dress. The top is a halter corset with hand beaded bust cups and the cutest little bow. The bottom has a built in crinoline and a small train (it's very poofy). AND it fits perfectly! I got it for $15 back in college, years before I even met my husband lol. You'll find your dress in time!

Kid 16 is basically an adult small but a little shorter which is a fantastic thing to know as you can get a lot cheaper fan apparel in the kid section

With thrift store wedding dresses a lot of people would have done alterations to them to fit their specific body. Some brides buy a dress and lose a few sizes; whilst some might gain. So you might find that the size indicated might not always be an actual one.

Kids 16 means it’s meant to fit a 16 year old so it makes sense that it fit. For the most part girls are usually physically full grown by then. Honestly like size 14-16 kids clothes are a hidden gold mine 😂❤

Key is to know your measurements or know your vintage size range. I am a current size 3/4 so I know that a size 12/14 in vintage almost always fits. Sometimes other sizes fit also but it depends on the shape of the item. It amazes me sometimes tho how small vintage clothing is 😅

This is the reality of trying on clothes. I was laughing!

The last one gave me nostalgic flashbacks of dresses I had as a teen in the 90s

Yes 👏 I tried my hardest to find a second hand wedding dress. Turns out all of the dresses in my size are either extremely ugly or fast fashion brands. Finally I just gave up and bought a new one.
