Heard multiple times this was the best dress of the evening.
I found the 2L and 4L to fit almost identically. The main difference I felt was the sleeve openings were tighter on the 2 and could've chafed, so that is why I went with the 4L. Very forgiving in the belly area, even after eating dinner... win. The color is beautiful... more of a wine-red, and it can look almost fuchsia in the photos depending on the lighting. Length was great... I like for it to sweep the floor and the long size was perfect... not so long that it tripped me all night, but just right. Loved this dress!

It was a perfect match with the dress and it was beautiful in person.
Slightly vintage look... not super shiny silver finish, but that is what gave it character. The place where the clasp was supposed to go made it a bit long fir the neckline of this dress, but the good news is that there was plenty of chain to adjust, so you could wear it longer or shorter if you prefer.

Special dress... sparkly, classy and great fit!
The 2 that I received actually fit a little looser in the hips thant he 4, which puckered at the hips on the seams a bit. It ran slightly longer on the front than the photos showed, but that was what I wanted, so I was pleased. Needed stylist tape to keep it in place on the girls up top, but that was because I was moving around a lot for this event. The color is fantastic and it looks even better in person than in the photos... more sparkly. Got tons of compliments and was totally happy with this dress. It was my 5th choice due to others I wanted not being available, but that turned out to be a blessing because this dress was absolutely perfect!
