Flattering and Comfortable...PERFECT!
Gorgeous and flattering evening dress accentuates an hourglass figure. It has a soft cup built in bra so if you want additional support you'll need a strapless or invisible strap bra. (Nude straps show too much.) The lining through the torso is substantial so it doesn't feel cheap or clingy. The lace is sheer but not itchy. My arms are on the big side but the sleeves are not tight. The embellishments on neckline and cuffs are tasteful and don't look cheap. The rouching at the waste hides belly fat and the gathers on the back hide back fat. The skirt has several sheer layers with one cut on the diagonal to add interest without bulk. The skirt does not have a slit. I'm 5'6" and with 2-3" heals the dress will need to be hemmed. I wear a 12 consistently and I fit into a 10 perfectly. The most important point is that it's very comfortable! Noticed in photographs with low light the dress can look black. Husband, daughter and sister gives this 5 stars on me, as Mother of the Bride. Looks sophisticated and elegant without looking frumpy or too sexy. This dress can be found on 4 retail sites but good luck finding your size...it sells out quickly...and I can see why!

Very different color
The dress is beautiful but it is a very different color (much darker/bluer) than the “violet” color that was shown online. So I need to return it. Very disappointing.

Love this dress! I received many compliments. It was perfect for our son’s December wedding. Built in cups and great scrunching made this dress easy to wear.... if only my shoes were as easy! Elegant length, perfect fit for my 5’ 7” DD 160lb curves!

Stunning and sophisticated
Unfortunately, I waited until the last week to find a dress to attend my youngest brother-in-law’s wedding in the middle of January.
My husband was the Best Man wearing a tux with a purple and blue print tie and pocket square.
I wore another Alex Evenings to my oldest bonus son’s wedding a couple years ago and loved the fit and style of it, so immediately started looking for the same one in a different color.
That style is short and sleeveless, so I had to order online and was given an estimated delivery of Thursday through Tuesday. I could not risk the dress arriving after Friday, so immediately looked to find what was in a local store and stumbled upon this gem.
I’m nearly 5’10” and have a 36” inseam, so rarely find dresses long enough so gravitate toward knee length and would not have probably considered this style. As fate would have it, that weekend was quite cold and although the other dress did arrive on time, I chose this one and got a ton of compliments.
The ruching in the back adds a flair to the dress as does the mesh beading.
My second oldest bonus son’s wedding is this June and I will definitely be looking forward to another Alex Evenings to wear!

Perfect for Mother-of-the_Groom
I need a dress for the Mother-of-the-Groom. I'm a size 10 with a few rolls on my back. This dress is perfect, as the material is stretchy and the back is designed to hide the rolls. I like the beaded neck and arms. The arm cover helps hide the 59 year old arms.

Runs large
In process of shopping for mother-of-groom dresses and this one is in the running. I ordered it in a 14 because no 12s were in stock and the 14 was too big. I saw where others mentioned this dress ran a little large and so (upon the advice of a Nordstrom associate which helpfully provided a link in an email) I ordered a 12 from another seller and the size 10 from Nordstrom. I received the size 10 from Nordstrom in lightning quick time and wow--the 10 fits like a dream. It is a beautiful dress. The ruching at the waist and back are so lovely and figure flattering. In person the color seems a bit darker; but otherwise is fine. And the stones at the neck and on the sleeves add the extra something that makes the dress stand out. This might be a keeper. (From trying on other Alex Evening gowns in a store I had pretty much determined that I was a size 12 in that brand but I'm a 10 in this dress.)

I got so many compliments on this dress!
I am glad I went with the size chart! I wear a 14 but the measurements said I needed a 16. I went with the 16 and it fit perfect. I am 5"7" and it was a little longer than I expected so I had to wear heels. It is a beautiful dress and I am so glad I ordered it!
