This dress was made of beautiful material and looked expensive. Unfortunately it was only nice if you were standing up and even then the opening was a bit odd. When sitting the opening popped wide open even with tons of boob tape.

This dress had a lot of fabric on the bottom, it was heavy and didn't balance with the delicate top portion. More of a prom dress than a gala or black tie dress. I normally wear a 4 in dresses but this swallowed me. Not sure it would be flattering even if it did fit properly.

I cannot for the life of me understand why this dress got such low ratings. It is an amazing dress. It is simply a work of art. I cannot wait to wear it. I was so fortunate to buy it on clearance and, I'm just waiting for the right occasion. The top is fabulous. It fits me like a glove. For the record, I'm 511 and I weigh 135 pounds.
