I just wanted to remind everybody to read product descriptions carefully! I didn't do so and was disappointed when I found out that the bustline of the dress is not actual leather, not even pleather. The fabric blend is more of a a satiny effect in person. At first, I was planning on sending this dress back due to fit. The straps were simply too long and kept slipping off of my shoulders. There are little clips under the straps to keep your bra in place, however- and after experimenting with different undergarments in my wardrobe (and some pleading from my hubby to make it work), this dress turned out to be a winner. The bust is small (though I barely filled it out as a 32A) yet the distance from shoulder to ribcage is not any smaller than normal. The skirt may add some volume to your bottom half due to the large, soft pleats. The color was slightly darker than what it appears on the model: that traditional "wet sand" sort of linen color. There was also some pilling on the linen, especially through the waist. I have a small waist (a little over 25") and the 0 felt very comfortable pre-dinner. Post dinner and drinks, it ran a little snug! Heh. Overall, a saucy alternative to the LBD; just be mindful of sizing.
