I loved this dress. I finally made up a reason to rent it and dropped the $125 for it. I was so excited the day it came. The dress still looked great on the hanger. It still looked great when I was shimmying into it. Then as I stood there looking in the mirror, I was sorely disappointed. The fabric was so stiff that wearing it would have required constant attention to make sure that I wasn't accidentally sharing "the goods" with everyone. I tried to get it to settle properly, but once I got one side settled, the other one would look weird. I grabbed a part of the dress and lifted it up to let it fall into place, only it didn't fall. It just kind of floated there like an overstarched item of clothing. Because of the way the fabric fell (or didn't) it makes you look wider than you are. I had ordered a backup dress that ended up working out just fine. I am pretty upset that I essentially paid $125 to wear a $65 backup dress, but what can you do. Hopefully this review will help you avoid the same mistake I made.
