Gorgeous dress!

This dress is a stunner! It has some stretch to it which makes it comfortable to wear. I love the off the shoulder look. The sleeves will stay wherever you put them as they have sticky strips. The color is a true hot pink and hard to capture in photos.

Elegant dress!

This dress is more beautiful on and in person than in the photos! I was nervous about the material because I typically stay away from thin, clingy materials but I took a chance on this dress after reading the reviews and was delighted. There is a layer of boning almost like a corset in the top of the dress that really helps it lay beautifully. I hate wearing my dresses too tight so I ordered larger sizes. I typically wear a 16-18 in jeans, dresses and skirts. I am about 5'4" and wanted to wear 4 inch heels. I ordered a size 20R and 22R. I could have worn either, but I went with the 22R for extra breathing room (for singing) and length over my shoes. If you are any taller, you'll probably want the taller length! I wore a strapless long line bra and I also wore a mermaid shape slip with tulle under it from David's Bridal for extra volume in the skirt. I was wearing the dress while singing in a concert so I wanted a fuller, more formal look. The combination of the slip and the longline bra made me feel extra comfortable, smoothing out any extra curves I didn't want to appear. The ruching in this dress is really great and complements curves. I felt like I could customize it by pulling the waist up or down for more or less ruching. Will rent again!
