that depends. all of my bridesmaids bought their dresses there and they were pretty much true to size. The sales lady would ask them what kind of pant size they would wear and she would bring that size dress and mostly all of them fit. I have a bigger bridesmaids who would wear size 14 pants (but tight really tight) and she didn't fit in the size 14 dress so she had to get the size 18. but two of my bridesmaids are size 6 in pants and so were there dresses.

What i would advice you to do is go to david's bridal and try the dress on in the size you are buying on ebay and then you know exactly how it fits.

The run a bit smaller about 1-2 sizes depending on the dress. Perhaps go to Davids Bridal and try on the dress and then buy it from ebay.

Good Luck!

All of my bridesmaids dresses from david bridal got the same size they normally wear.

Usually, yes they do run small. But if you've already bid for it, don't worry. A good tailor/seamstress should be able to make it fit you!

If you have time, you could go to a David's Bridal and either try on the gown, or have an associate measure you to figure out your size.

Good luck!

Smaller. When ordering a formal gown it is always better to order a size bigger than what you need. Remember you can always take it in if needed.

generally formal wedding wear runs small.

see if the girls can go to davids localy to be fitted to see what size they will be then order.

I actually thought they were pretty true to size, maybe even a little big.

i actually just read somewhere that they run small in davids bridal... but what do i know. lol
