Very cute on.

Loved the dress. It is a good length for my height (not too short). Loved the cold shoulders, but did not like the need for a strapless bra. I'd wear it again, but would probably get the stick on bra for comfort.

Elegant but long...watch the train situation.

This dress is elegant, fairly comfortable (other than the need for a strapless bra), and forgiving because of the gathering at the middle. Watch the length though....I went with a 10L (I could have done the 8 but felt a little squeezed across the chest. I am 5'8" and wore heels (3") and still nearly killed myself with the length of the dress. It was perfect in front, but had a slight train in the back that I ended up having to hold up every time I walked. If I had gone with higher heels, it would have helped, but if you are shorter than 5'8", you might want to go with the regular length, even with heels. (Or at least get it as a back up.)

Pretty color, but size up if you're busty. ;)

I am normally a size 6-8 but busty (34DDD). The 8 was too tight for my chest, but the 10 was unavailable. If a 10 was available, I would have definitely gone with this dress. Really pretty color and form fitting but without making you feel like you can't breathe. I'll try for this dress for the next event in a 10.
