Sexy Mixed With Elegance
Amazing quality. Thick and formed material that holds its own shape while also stretching just enough to fit comfortably to allow movement. Slightly long for me being 5’3” but also fine. Small fit pretty true to size but ever so slightly on the larger side for the top half of the dress. Great for accommodating larger chest sizes. I am 130lbs and a D cup for reference. I received so many compliments all night. Order it!

has weird middle crease
The color is beautiful. Fit is fine. Disappointed on the quality of the fabric and it scrunches weird in the middle.

A must buy
Love love love this dress. Had difficulty on sizing but ended up going with the medium instead of the small. Felt like it could’ve stayed up a little better. For reference 145#, 5”4”, 36c. Got many many compliments.

THIS IS THE DRESS!!
Get this dress! I have a very large bust and not only did I sit up nicely in the dress but I looked like I lost 10 pounds. INSANE! I felt so beautiful and elegant and received interest from a few gentlemen callers at the event I attended. The dress is a win win. I can't wait to wear it again. Get some dazzling earrings and thank me later!

Never got so many compliments
I wore this dress to a wedding last week and posted a pic of me in it on social media. The feedback was off the charts. If you’re on the fence, buy it.

Great purchase
I was skeptical when ordering. Absolutely love this dress. It has a small amount of stretch. I am a size 12. I am a DD bra size. Held everything in place without tape or padding. I received lots of compliments.

Liked it did not love it
I’m a typical size 16 and ordered an XXL. It fit and zipped but unfortunately showed my little mama pooch. And bc it had such a long sheer slit in the front, I couldn’t wear shapewear to help as you could see the top of my shapewear through the sheer. Ultimately I returned it. But the fabric was stretchy and heavy in a good way.
