Comfortable and lively color, but no stretch fabric and tight in bust
Wore to a cocktail party. Comfortable even for dancing. Moderately conservative, but cute. I sized up and it was still tight in bust for 36B/C. Shame this dress doesn't have pockets!

Comfortable, flexible fabric
Elegant gown that was really comfortable and reasonably lightweight. Attractive, yet conservative enough for a work function. It didn't need steaming when it arrived, which was a plus! Runs a little bit large.

Simple, comfortable elegance
It fit as expected, and was super comfortable for the evening. Regular length worked great for 5'7"with 3" heels. The hem was not sewn together, so I had to fix it with a bunch of fashion tape. The fabric was very comfortable. The photos show a waste line on the model, but mine kind of hung straight and did not have as much of an hourglass figure.

Super comfortable summer cocktail dress
Nice embroidery detail. Awesome pockets to hold phone. Comfortable. Needed to be steamed on arrival, but didn't wrinkle up when I wore it. Perfect for outdoor summer cocktail party.

Stand out dress for posing and feeling elegant - not ideal for dancing
I received compliments like stunning and lovely in this gown. The dress was comfortable and pretty lightweight for sequins. It is a little awkward with the cleavage, limited ability to raise arms all the way, and sequins can get stuck on things like purse straps and chair backs. It really is low cut (more noticeable when you sit down), so I had to wear a camisole which actually added a little style. The 10R was the perfect length at 5'7" with 3" heels. The 8L also fit, but a bit too snug for me and the black hem liner was an inch lower than the sequin front.

Sophisticated, comfortable, flattering back
The intricacies of the skirt were lovely. I was barely able to zip up the 8, but it was very comfortable thanks to the flexible bodice fabric. Worked well with backless, strapless bra. With the high waist band, you won't have to suck in your stomach all night. I would have preferred the R length. I'm 5'7" and I wore 3" heels, but the long still dragged 1" on the floor making it difficult to walk without stepping on the front hem.
