Update to my review
I stand corrected- I was contacted by the team and my 10% discount has been honored. The customer service here is amazing, and I'm looking forward to finding an outfit for my welcome party next.

A wonderful experience, some things to note about the dress...
My experience with The Afterwhite was incredible. I was between sizes on the Fiorenza dress and Raquelle was so helpful and accommodating and making sure I had the correct size. I utilized the chat on the website to communicate, and eventually ordered 2 sizes and sent back the one that didn't work. The only small issue is that I signed up for the 10% off first time shopper, but that was lost during the exchange and I ended up paying full price.
Overall I would shop here again for my wedding wardrobe.
ABOUT THE DRESS:
I do feel like I should mention some things about the Fiorenza dress. While it is absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to wear it for my bridal shower, it required fairly heavy alterations to fit properly. All said and done the dress is costing me nearly $700- way more than I planned.
I am petite and athletic, and was between a size 0 & 2 . I opted to size down to the 0 because the breast cups were SO large in the size 2 that I could not make it work. That said, the waist is a bit tight, and if you look closely in the photos the first layer of ruffles roll up. When I sized down that was exaggerated, so I'm having my seamstress add a few stitches around that first layer to keep them down. The larger size also rolled up, but it wasn't all the way around the dress. You should expect this to happen and I would suggest adding some stitches to keep the ruffles in place.
I did have to add cups to the chest area in the size 0 because it was still too large (I am a 32 B), and had an entire layer of ruffles removed from the bottom of the dress for the length to look correct. The straps were also incredibly long, even at the lowest adjustment so I had the adjustable fabric removed and shortened the straps to just the ruffled portion. I am still able to wear the 'off the shoulder look'.
This dress was made for taller women with a large chest size. It is possible to have alterations done to fit other body types, but it will be costly (My alterations cost me $200). The fabric and pattern are beautiful, the corset top is flattering and will allow for some wiggle room in the sizing, and this is quite literally the perfect bridal shower look. I do wish there was a review pointing out some of this, but overall it's a beautiful dress that I'm looking forward to wearing.
For reference my measurements are as follows:
height 5"1'
cup size B
weight 115lbs
bust 32 inches
waist 25.5 inches
hips 34 inches

As much as I love the dress, it’s too small.
Hi! My experience with Daphne Newnan has been great. Thank you! Unfortunately the dress is too small and I need to return it. I do not believe you have the next size up in stock otherwise I would exchange for that.
How do I go about returning the dress. It has not been worn.. only tried on for 2 minutes.
Thank you and I will continue to look to Daphne Newman for special occasions!
