I loved this dress, even though I do think the construction of it is a little strange. My true size was a little small in places but one size up was a little big. I think it is supposed to hug your body tightly, but the built in corset was made for someone with different proportions than me (barrel torso, big boobs.) that being said, I still loved it. I got loads of compliments, it was fun while still being formal enough for a Plaza wedding and I felt like I could actually dance in it.

Great for parties. If I had the funds, I 100% would have bought them. They felt high end and interesting without being tacky

I wore for a British-style day wedding followed by high tea. The fullness of the sleeves was perfect, any more and it would have been kitchy. The material is so flowy and beautiful and it is lined so nothing shows. I did have to pin the bust, or it would have been way too open. I got lots of compliments. This is one of those dresses where the style is pretty common, but the cut, material, and execution of it really elevate it to something special.

This was a little too quinceanera or princess-y for me. It has two tulle ruffle layers under the skirt so it is very wide and floofy. The fabric is beautiful though, and if you are going for the hard-core princess look, go for it. I am only 5'8" and the Long didn't quite hit the floor I'm guessing the regular is a little short
