Loved loved loved this dress! It was a little tight through the bust, but still perfectly comfortable with a “chicken cutlet” type strapless bra (definitely couldn’t wear a regular bra because of the back). The length was great for me (truly tea length) but I’m pretty tall (5’11”) so might be a too long on others. The color is to die for, and the backless detail was a fun addition to keep it from being too work-y with the sleeves and high neckline. Tons of compliments, and made me feel so comfortable at an awards dinner.

Great boho vibes! I loved the sparkly thread throughout and the sleeves, but ended up not wearing this one in the end. It was a little bit too low cut for the event I was going to and I felt like the pattern or the ruffle on the skirt made me look too wide through the hips.

This was a great dress all across the board- beautiful, comfortable, and super wrinkle resistant! I crammed it into a tiny carry-on and then wore it in the car for several hours, and it still looked great! The open back is a cute detail, and the high neck means you can wear any kind of sticky bra you want. (I wouldn't advise going braless, as the material is silky and thin). The way the top drapes did make me look a little wider than I am. All in all, would definitely recommend!
