    Great review of JJ's House! As a professional seamstress, I had the opportunity to alter one of their dresses about 6 years ago. It was so well made, that I ordered my dress for my daughter's wedding the next year. They never disappoint. Thanks so much for a very thorough review!

    I got my wedding dress from them! As a plus lady I didn’t want the shame of going to a boutique and all the judgements for my size. I ordered to my measurements and didn’t even have to tailor it! Fit perfectly right from the bag! I can’t recommend JJ’s House enough. ❤

The boutique did not have a single dress in the whole store that actually fit me. You made a wonderful choice and I’m so happy that it went so well!

      I love that shade of blue 💙🩵💙🩵Royal blue for the win! I think I would have liked it better if all the lace part was lined in the same colour as the build in bra - and would like all lined in nude - on camera it looks like the bra cups are white and it sort of highlights that area

    I love JJs house - I ordered from them for formal night on a disney cruise, and literally everyone, from my family, other cruise guests and the cruise staff gasped and stopped me to tell me how stunning I looked 😍 I felt like such a princess!
    After we got home, I happily donated my gown to goodwill because prom season was coming up, and I was hoping and praying a plus size student would fall in love and score a deal!
    If I ever need a formal gown again, I'd 100% shop with them again!

    • @BigonStyle
      @BigonStyle  Před 9 měsíci +32

      Oh my goodness, this is the best story ever, you outshining the princesses!! I was so pleased with them and feel exactly the same way as you about ordering from them in the future!
      My favorite thing is you donating it for the upcoming prom season, I am sure that you made some sweet young girl’s dreams come true! We have an org out here called giving gown that our charity league partners with. It is kind of amazing, their goal is to ensure that every girl is beautifully dressed for their formals regardless of finances. They struggle with plus size dresses and have a need. That is where 4 of these are going!

I have been plus size most of my life but am finally (in my early 40s) deciding to take charge and find beautiful clothing that makes me feel confident and happy- I really think that most of being beautiful is feeling beautiful! I hope that you find some things that make you feel like spinning around in your living room!

    I can't get over how reasonably priced these are to be custom fit and so well made.

    • @AlexaFaie
      @AlexaFaie Před 3 měsíci +1

      They are atrociously priced. The days it would take to hand bead those dresses at that price point means sweatshop factory production. There's no way whatsoever that the employees (if even employed) were paid a fair living wage at that price point. Its not a reasonable price at all. Way way under what it should cost.

    This video was so much fun! I felt like I was on a girls day out with you in the changing room, sipping on a glass of something fizzy. Your enjoyment of the dresses (the joy of them fitting!) is so infectious. The 'Belle' and 'Cinderella' dresses were my favourites, but the black was also gorgeous.

    • @BigonStyle
      @BigonStyle  Před 9 měsíci +6

      Thank you, Natalie!! Lulu has to give the dress her stamp of approval! I completely understand what you mean! I was having these sent to me and was hesitant on the black because the model, albeit absolutely beautiful, did not showcase what the garment would look like on me. I was so impressed with the quality of every one of these dresses- even with the odd top of the burgundy and snug plum sleeve!

    I so enjoy your videos. I am 74 yrs. old, and have spent most of my life fighting my weight, which has been too much for my short (4’11 1/2”) self! It is so nice to see a young woman embracing herself and finding what works for her. I agree with your assessment of each dress. Being able to have a dress custom made to your own measurements for just $20 extra blows my mind! Loved that last slate blue dress the most. Thank you for sharing these great finds with all of us! 💙

I’ve only been watching for a few days and can’t wait to investigate some of these sites.

    Girl, that plum dress is killer. I can see you in another color, but the style is beautiful. The ruby is also lovely too. I loved that you put an underskirt on and it added some nice fullness. The slate blue is def a princess dress and I would love to see an underskirt with that one too.

    • @BigonStyle
      @BigonStyle  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Thank you so much! My contact there wrote me back twice- once to verify my height, and once to ask if I wanted additional length! I bought s designer wedding dress (years ago) and the sales lady convinced me that I did not need to pay for extra length- getting that dress altered was over $500 (back in 2005!!!). I think that the option to make to your measurements is huge if you aren’t a standard size. CONGRATULATIONS on your upcoming wedding! I hope that you find the gown of your dreams!!

      @@BigonStyle The price was about 1/5th what the comparable gowns I tried on were - but there was no way the boutique could have a gown shipped or tailored in time for my wedding that was 4 months off. JJ's House accepted measurements and had my gown tailored for 6' tall and typically US size 18, veil, and tiara shipped and at my house with 2 months to spare before the day. They were also where my bridesmaids (from different states) were able to choose similar gowns in the same color and fabric that were most flattering to their body types. I highly recommend anyone in the market for formal, bridal, or special occasion wear check them out.

    Adult prom sounds way more fun than HS prom, probably because my husband is a built-in date 😂 (Didn't go to HS prom. Bought a prom dress, then went to a fancy dinner and chill night at a hotel with friends). .. Thank you for these hauls. If I someday have a fancy event to go to, I'll know where to look for dresses! ETA: With the red dress, on the model the bodice work looks more dense and more 3D-ish, which might be part of the disappointment, or would be if it was me, at least as far as the density goes.

Dress up, have a great dinner, leave when we want to- only invite the nice people!

    Oh no, CZcams is learning that my love of formal dresses is not exclusive to youtubers who look like me 😅The pure joy that radiates when someone wears a pretty thing, especially when it fits as nicely as these ones do, is infectious. Absolutely agree with your top pics. I would say the black is the most formal, the blue is the easiest to wear in a more casual setting, and the yellow would be beautiful to dress up for a Christmas or New Years party. I can see how the yellow might wash you out some in person, but that can be mitigated somewhat with makeup or completely ignored due to how freaking fun and pretty it is (it didn't actually look off on camera, to my eye, at least). I wish the sleeve fit better on the plum dress, it's a contender for the top slots otherwise, but just seems like it'd be too uncomfortable to put up with for a full event, digging into you even slightly. At least while you have all these other options, to be sure!

    Oh my gosh.. I am a plus sized woman (that is also 6'1..sigh) that needs to get a dress to have for a formal event and this seems freaking perfect. I've never ever been able to find dresses that are long enough, maybe the custom sizing would help me.

    • @BigonStyle
      @BigonStyle  Před 9 měsíci +4

      I would look into them for sure- I am 3 inches shorter than you and always have trouble with length, so I am sure that the struggle is real!!
      I entered my actual measurements (I watched a little video on their site and got my daughter to help- then I entered my actual height (70 inches) and asked them to add 2 inches when it asked for additional inches. I was worried, but I’m very happy that I added the length!
      I was truly impressed by the quality of each piece, though I thought the neck was odd on the burgundy and the sleeve was a little too snug on the plum.
      I would also recommend looking at the review pictures, I liked seeing how things translated to plus size- oh, and some of the dresses have plus size models, when you are looking at a dress, click the colors to change those, and click a larger size and if they have it in a plus size model, you will see her! I really hope it works for you! I was happy with the dresses and all of my interactions with the company. Holler if you have any questions!

    I love the last dress you tried on. You could easily add more of the mesh to raise the exposure and to help bring in the sides of the bodice so that you don't feel like you're falling out and the straps would stay on your shoulders better. A good seamstress could also add some of the skintone mesh to the back to make you feel less exposed and to keep the straps in place. Next was the black dress. Then the plum one with a couple of modifications to fix the sleeves and the slit which is to high. The weird train piece of fabric could be used to fix both issues. Then we have the blue and the yellow dresses. I really don't like the yellow color, but the style is nice. The red dress needs a new bodice because the rest is pretty.

    I always wonder about these sites and not had much luck in some places I’ve ordered from (nasty thin polyester) so I’m pleasantly surprised by these. Custom sizing for only a little extra is great and they all fit you really well. my favourites were the royal blue, then plum - these two were way out ahead of the others - then black (if it had no slit), then red, blue and least favourite was yellow/gold.

    I TOTALLY resonate with what you were saying about your wedding dress. I live in China and I was my sister's Maid of Honor. She bought the biggest size of my dress for me over a year before her wedding because they were discontinuing it and we needed to make sure I could match the bridesmaids. I believe the dress was about $180 and I remember that the alterations needed to size it down to me were about $150! I was so mad at that wasted money! I gave her my measurements which did recommend a different size but we were worried because so many designers/ dress collections run small...this one didn't.
