The Princess and the P̶e̶a̶ Pockets
Words can't begin to describe the magnificence of this dress. I felt like a princess in all those fairy tales we read when we were children that misrepresent the reality of adult life as women living in a patriarchal society. The built in bra was very supportive and it had pockets! The bottom of the dress dragged a little in the back, but you just have to remember to carry the train when there's stairs, like a Hollywood starlet gliding onstage to accept her Oscar whilst smiling through the pain of working in one of the many industries rife with institutionalized systemic misogyny. If you spin around, the fabric dreamily floats out, making it a show stopper on the dance floor. I loved it!

Elegant, original, beautiful, comfortable. AND POCKETS
This is a fantastic dress. I got so many compliments on it, and it was soooooo comfortable. PLUS IT HAS POCKETS. I was nervous because I had never tried that off the shoulder look, but it was rather flattering. The inner material was so soft and satiny, I felt like I was wearing a nightgown that happened to serve up some serious fashion in its spare time. Have I mentioned the pockets? Every dress should have pockets. It runs slightly small, so get a size up as an option. I didn't need a bra, which was miraculous because my breasts are in the droopy department, but the dress managed to make it work. I know it's not structurally possible but I'm going to credit the pockets for that particular design achievement. I highly recommend this dress and the pockets it was built around.

LOVED this dress! I got so many compliments from the subway to the wedding. It was so fun!
It's true to size, and very comfortable. The tulle is a little bit all over the place, but I didn't mind since I was walking around and dancing a lot. But if it's an event where you need to stand still and pose for photos, it may need regular re-adjusting.
