Showstopper!!
This dress was perfection on my daughter. Coming out of the little tiny box I was skeptical, even on the hanger is was "ho hum" but on the right person, it's magic! She's a 4 across the board in dresses, but we read the reviews and ordered a medium and a large just in case. The medium came first and fit like a glove so we didnt even open the large. NOTE- my daughter is a 34 barely B cup. I don't think this dress would work well on anyone with a large chest. It's cut quite low, which we thought looked beautiful, but the actual "chest" area is really narrow and small. There's no stretch, so if you're at the top end of the size chart, go up (for example, medium is 4-6, if you're a 6, you probably should size up) We did black on black, and it was beautiful for prom! My daughter is a hair short of 5'7" and wore 4" heels and the dress just brushed the ground. It IS long.

Not what I expected
This dress looks completely different than in the photo. I thought this would be a modern/unique bridesmaid dress alternative. Instead, it looks like a cheap prom dress. The rose pink is more of a dusty rose/mauve. Unlike in the photo, the sequins are not solid gold, they're a mix of tiny donut sequins in iridescent white, copper, and pink. Like other reviewers mentioned, the dress is quite long and the sizing is way off. I am 5'5 and normally a size 4/6 with a smaller bust and ordered a M. The bodice was super tight around my ribs and chest. If I would have liked the dress, I definitely would have needed to order a size up. The fit wasn't flattering on and left me pretty disappointed. I will be returning this dress and continuing my search!

sexy dress
the low plunge neckline is very sexy. the top area is definitely small so buy a size up, a must. i'm very petite, 108 lbs, and the small fit me well but i'm usually an xs. i'm so glad i purchased the small, the xs would have never fit!

Looks better on
I think this dress looks far better on, than on the hanger. Like other reviewers stated, you need to size up. I am petite and typically where a size 4 in formal dresses (and smaller sizes in pants and shirts). I ordered the size Medium in this dress and it fits well. The torso and straps are too long on me, so I am having them tailored along with the hem. The alterations are pricey, but worth it in my opinion because I bought the dress to wear as a bridesmaid, and anticipate being able to wear it to a few other weddings this year. For the bridal party, we are able to pick any long dress in a neutral pink or beige. A lot of the other dress options that fit that bill, look too bridesmaidy to me. The fabric and cut of this dress does not scream typical bridesmaid which means I can wear it to other weddings and not look silly.

Loved it!
I bought this dress in Wine- I am short, 5'4" small chested with hips. I love this dress! I ordered a size up (Medium) My mom was wonderful enough to hem it for me, she noticed that it was not even at all along the bottom, not a problem for me because I am a little shortie. The dress is perfect in the chest area ( I am a 32 AorB) I can't wait to wear this for my USMC Ball!!

sizes are way off!!!
I'm a medium, ordered a medium and couldn't zip it up. Decided not to order a large because from the waist down would've been way too big. I'm returning to find something else
