Artwork Sequin Dress

Bust: 34DD
Perfect summer dress
This came too late for a SeaFair outdoor party but I wore it to work with a black camisole underneath. SO many compliments. The dress is comfortable, but despite its roominess, it is exquisitely tailored with knife-sharp pleats, and origami-like folded trim. I'm planning to keep this one - hemming it a bit as it is longer than appears on the giraffe-like model :), hitting mid calf for me.

Cute, but heavy fabric
Wore this when hosting a rooftop dinner party. The fabric was a little heavy and the off-the-shoulder was hard to keep in place, but it is a cute style and felt appropriate Parisian with long black shorts and Chanel ballerina flats.

Adorablely quirky
Very comfortable, heavy enough to resist wrinkles and not be see through but not too heavy. The cuffs are long enough to be difficult at work but for a relaxed day, it was perfect. I'd keep it if it was less pricey!

Pretty pattern, easily wrinkles
The pattern is pretty. Fits nicely. Lined only to booty-short length. Very long - hem was dragging with 3.5 inch heels on. Wrinkles very very easily, especially with sitting.

Pretty but small
I was worried about the fit in the waist (I range between 2-4 usually) but it was the bodice that was so tight I couldn't even pretend to zip it up. Not for larger chested women! Returned without wearing.

Top gapes
I'm 32D-DD, but I don't think it was chest size that caused the gaping, but where the waistline hit. Returned without wearing.

Fabric is heavier than expected, a thicker cotton like would be used for bedding. Very flattering, fun pattern.

Statement maker!
Fun statement earrings in a deep rich green. A little too big for work, but dressed up my outfit nicely after work. Clip on, and mildly heavy, but tolerable for short periods.

Really pretty
A nice option for the earring backer trend. Pretty, delicate but not overly so, could work for a dressy event but complemented my work outfit well. Would purchase if just a little cheaper!

Gorgeous but heavy!
Really amazing statement necklace that works perfectly with a very simple outfit, but also can tie together some unusual colors in a more complicated outfit. It is extremely heavy though, and by the afternoon, I found myself adjusting it to give my neck a rest. instagram: sinseattle

This is from the Valentino diffusion line but it is extremely well made and appears more expensive. Very comfortable and easy to wear. Cute without being twee. Lots of compliments. Considered buying it. instagram: sinseattle

lovely easy dress
Really lovely dress. Fabric is lightweight but properly opaque, perfect for a warm night. Can unbutton the skirt high to expose some leg. Lines are graceful. Flutter sleeves do emphasize bust and upper arms, so fellow apples may want to keep that in mind. instagram: sinseattle

Perfect fur vest!
Wore this on vacation in Iceland. A colleague couldn't stop talking about it. Salesladies kept asking about it. Everyone assumed I was a chic native and wouldn't speak in English to me. It was delightfully warm and cozy. Colors were gorgeous and fun, although my husband thought that was strange. High collar prohibited wearing earrings with it. Strongly considered buying it.

I really want to buy this dress. It's perfect. The most comfortable dress and gives a great hourglass shape. May need fashion tape for cleavage.

Sexy side boob
Well, my husband loved it. The open back and peeking sides convinced him that it doesn't take a tight dress to be sexy. The structure was interesting. A little difficult to get into and hard to use the bathroom during ballet intermission, but not impossible. The fabric was surprisingly a little scratchy. I liked it, but it wasn't worth the exorbitant rental cost.

Stands out in a crowd
Very unique dress. beautiful colors and pattern, comfortable, back is disappointing, , fabric is stiff so not best for sitting down at the opera (causes the neckline to puff up towards your face). Roomy, I wish the 40 or 38 had been available.

Very comfortable, eye-catching (had strangers coming up to me to complement me!) The size 2 worked best on me so that it didn't pull across the bust or waist and I wear between a 0 and 4 usually. I used a skinny gold belt to define the waist and pulled it up a bit to shorten it. It was nicely above the knees already, but the dress is more flattering showing a lot of leg! Accessorized with my own gold/diamond ring, gold/pearl drop earrings and a bronze clutch. The color of the dress is slightly more rose-beige than the picture implies.

Gorgeous dress - real showstopper. The bodice is very very structured, however. Not a good choice for opera/theater/ballet where you will be sitting down as the whole thing gets shoved under your chin. Also, the top curves in a bit on the sides, so even though it fit reasonably well in other areas, it made the sides of my chest look a little flabby. FWIW, they only sent the 2 and not the 4, so I don't know if that would have made the difference.
