Loved this dress! The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I wish there wasn't so much extra fabric in the stomach area. I think it made me look larger than I am. But it was a comfortable dress that I was able to wear my regular bra with. I did use the fashion tape to close the neckline a little more though because my bra was showing. A deep plunging bra would work best. I wore black accessories.

Great dress for my apple body shape. I wore it to a bachelorette party. I said it runs small because I have a smaller bottom half and the bottom of this dress was quite tight on me. I think if someone was not apple shaped, they would definitely need to go up a size. I didn't wear the black sash around one of the shoulders and used the provided fashion tape to hold the dress up since I was wearing a regular bra and not strapless (I was breastfeeding at the time and only had nursing bras). I used the sash as a belt to help define my waist since it was kind of lost in the larger top.
