Didn't wear it

Not for women with larger upper arms! I ordered in the size 18 and the actual dress fit with the exception of the arms. Great dress but would love some give in the arms..

The event - at Rockefeller Center and in a sea of women mostly wearing black..this dress STOOD OUT!!

The dress was STUNNING! I received compliment after compliment especially regarding the color. I am a size 14/16 usually and thankfully ordered an 18 as a backup. The fit was really ok except it was too long (should have ordered the petite) and was snug in the hips in the size 16, so if you've got hips and a derriere order a size up. If you aren't wearing 4-5" heels get the petite. I am 5' 4". Because I sized up the top was too big so I needed to pin the hell out of it so that my bra didn't show in the back and the keyhole wasn't too low. I just lost a good amount of weight so my arms are flab central...the dress did a decent job of camouflaging. The fabric was high quality with a built in liner. Great dress!

So I didn't actually wear the dress but will rent and wear it at another event. Fabulous!!

This dress goes perfectly with strappy heels... it is simple yet elegant and should be dressed up with a fabulous necklace and bracelet. Classy and heavy quality material. The only suggestion I have is: be sure to wear shapewear because this dress is form fitting and WILL show your belly if you have one. Enjoy!
