This dress was sent to me as a last-minute back-up for a dress that was unexpectedly unavailable. I didn't wear it because it wasn't what I was going for. The dress is lovely and has thick, heavy fabric that would be flattering on all body types. It's a bit heavy for a summer event. I imagine it would be nice on a baby bump too. One thing to note - I have thin arms but the arm holes on the SR size were pretty tight. The asymmetric top is more noticeable in person than in the model photo.

Based on previous reviews about the fit of the dress, I was nervous about whether the dress would work because the only size available for my event was the small. I'm glad I went with it - it was VERY HARD to get zipped but wasn't too tight or "sausage"-y once it was on. The fabric is thick and drapes well for a very flattering fit. The color is a deep royal blue and would be flattering on any skin tone. The length was mid-thigh; not too short, not too long. I had no issues with the dress riding up. With a small chest, side-boob wasn't an issue at all. Could've gone bra-less but went with a Nu-bra. A word of caution - when I originally tried the dress for fit, I had some significant painful pinching, not when getting the zipper UP but because it would slip DOWN and pinch as I tried to hold together the next part to zip up (seriously, this dress is hard to zip up). I had no issues on the night of the wedding because, based on previous reviews, I used a safety pin to hold the zipper in place - highly recommend doing this! Overall was super happy and felt amazing all night.
