Comfortable and forgiving
This dress fit perfectly except for the length, which I fixed with fashion tape. I’m petite and ran out of time to find an acceptable dress to wear to a black tie event (after many exchanges and one dress that never arrived because it became unavailable after I had ordered it). This dress was simple and the ruffles added interest to it. Very comfortable to walk, sit, and dance in it. Received many compliments throughout the night.

Beautiful color, odd fit.
The cut out detail on top did not sit flat, as if they had been stretched. However, everything else was too tight. I did not wear this for my event.

Very tight around my feet
Hard to walk wearing this pretty dress. Otherwise it fit beautifully. I wore another dress instead.

Not for petites
Gorgeous dress, everyone who saw it gasped, quite unique. I did not wear it because the dress was way too long. Even having about 3-4” hemmed would not work because the torso is very long as well (gathering about 3 inches from shoulders to shorten the torso, everything else fell into place - but that alteration was obviously not an option). If you are a petite, look elsewhere. For tall or regular proportional women, go for it because it is worth it. By the way, if it had fit me better I would not have worn a brassiere.

Beautiful, order up
Elegant, good weight, not too revealing but super form fitting. I stepped into it and pulled it up without much wiggling around, but it felt way tight to me. I’d have to try one or two sizes up if I decided to wear it for my event.

Gorgeous but not for my body
I’m petite, 14” shoulder to shoulder: this gorgeous neckline was way too wide for me. The cut is flattering and forgiving. The fabric is light and flows beautifully. I’d wear with Spanx because I could see my belly button’s format under the dress. The back zipper was wavy, but it might be because the fit was large on me.

Gorgeous & Very Warm
This dress fit perfectly. I’m 5’1” 125 lbs 34D. Not easy to get in/out, especially to pass over my busy. The fabric is soft and comfortable. I did not wear it for my black tie event because I felt hot while trying it on and walking to mirrors around the house (but I always feel warmer than everyone around me). Looking for a sleeveless version of this beautiful dress!

Too long, did not wear
Loved the color and weight. Easy to get in and out. I’m 5’1” 125 lbs and could have gone down a size. Very long on me even with platform sandals. The plunging neckline was a lot more revealing than I expected. I planned to wear this to a black tie event. Unfortunately I tried it on and swapped it immediately.
