Beautiful (with a few Good-to-Knows)!
I wore this to a fundraising gala. It is beautiful and fit great. However, for my fellow DD+ beauties - just be mindful of the neckline, particularly since you can’t really wear anything but pasties with this. Some strategically placed garment tape or a shawl would have been helpful. Also, keep in mind that the slit will get higher when you sit down. I felt pretty self conscious and kept checking it while I was seated to make sure I wasn’t flashing anyone. I ended up finding a way to tuck it under my leg. So all in all a beautiful dress but not the best cut for events where you’re having to sit a lot. I also wouldn’t recommend it for an outdoor event where it’s windy. It’s okay for ladies with large chests as long as you have some garment tape or a shawl.

Perfect for Black Tie Daytime Outdoor Summer Wedding
I was pretty stumped on what to wear to this wedding after I layered on all the qualifiers (black tie, summer, daytime, outdoor) lol! This ended up being a great choice, though. It’s a beautiful spring/summer color for daytime without being too close to white or looking like a wannabe bridesmaid or prom goer. The satin fabric, floor length, and neckline elevates it to black tie. It’s lightweight so I didn’t melt in Tennessee in July. I loved the look of the slit and the neckline but was a little worried that I’d have to be careful all afternoon to avoid a wardrobe malfunction. It ended up being way more forgiving than I anticipated, though. I felt really comfortable walking, sitting, and dancing in it. Definitely recommend this dress!

Perfect for Conference Banquet
It’s elegant, pretty, and was “work appropriate” for the banquet I attended, given the government/military dress code expectations. If you’re looking for something on the more conventional side that doesn’t make you feel frumpy, this is a great choice!

Perfect for Professional Conference Banquet
This was a fun choice that looked and fit great, but was still conservative enough to meet the conventional dress code expectations for a modeling and simulation conference with a lot of government and military attendees.
