super chic gala or holiday dress

Probably should have gotten the XXS. Cup size is B so needed to wear padded bra for smaller chest. Otherwise awesome dress for the price. Well made and comfortable. Easy to walk and dance in

Nice Quality but Fit is Off

The silver version of this dress is beautiful. It's heavy, well-lined, and looks more expensive than it is; however, I wear a size 10 pant, 12 top, and a 36DD, and the cups were too big on me. I do carry my weight in my waist, so I ordered both a size large and an XL, and I could not zip the large. I think if you are busty and have a smaller waist, you will love this. It was so close to a "love," but it just wasn't flattering to my stomach, and the cups looked droopy.
