I don't have one but just an FYI, this dress runs really large. I had one in large and it was roomy on me. I'm normally between a large and Xlarge.

Thanks Nicole, if I could only find one, I'd be willing to take it in.  So I hope someone has a medium.  Thanks for your time Nicole, and happy new year!

I know that this is a PUG website but modcloth has the alika in the circles on their website on sale at the moment. It's called the With Only a Wink dress. Hope this helps :)

Oh man I am so happy with all the responses!  You are all so friendly and helpful!  Well I have been on the hunt Samantha, and I found the modcloth website, and their dress is on sale but they only have it in xs size!  I almost had it!  Then I went to e bay, as suggested by Jessie here, they sure have lots of great dresses, and I saw the one in white with the sparkly material.  So I put in a bid just now, because I am not crazy about it.  It is beautiful, but it reminds me of a wedding dress.  Where could I wear it to, and how do I fix it so it doesn't look like I want to get married?  Thank you so much for all of your help!  And Happy New Year!

Aww man I'm sorry about them not having the size :/ I think the white one would be good if you paired it with non wedding accessories like red shoes and hair flower or a cardigan in a bright color.

Well Samantha, I got the white Bettie Paige dress and it is on its way!  I will do just what you suggested with the flower and the cardigan, and my date won't think I'm throwing him a hint! Thanks again!

Yay! I'm glad you found one :) I think you could wear a wedding gown on your date and the guy wouldn't get the hint. Men are notoriously oblivious lol Have fun in it :)

Hello Jesse!  Happy New Year!  Thank you so much for finding this for me, you went to so much trouble and I am very appreciative!  Anyway, my heart has been set on the pink one, but it is just not available in my size.  The white one is beautiful, but it reminds me of a wedding dress.  Maybe I am wrong though.  Do you think it can be worn for a Sunday brunch?  Or is it too fancy?  I decided I want it, so I put in a bid!  Only 49 bucks with 7 hours to go!  Thank you again so much for your help!  I am so happy I found this place with such helpful and friendly people!
