Amazing dress!
I don't know how they did it, but it was possible for me (38DDD) to wear this dress without a bra! I am wearing one in the pic just because I was more comfortable that way, but this dress is a feat of engineering. The effect of the dress is modern but a bit punk rock too with diagonal images of branded receipts (so stylish trash). I styled it with a super ornate piece of Indian embroidery as a necklace, a weird combo that I think worked anyway. I wore it for date night in and my wife loved it!

Beautiful dress
This is such a gorgeous dress, appropriate for any occasion. The size 16 was a little bit tight but zipped without a problem and I could move around in it just fine. I really didn't want to return this!

Casual sequins indeed
I wore this with a little black fake fir trimmed cardigan and giant black rubber paratrooper boots for my first day back. I didn't feel overdressed even though technically I was wearing a ball gown to work. Riding my bike to work also went smoothly, though it did shed some sequins that I'm still finding days later. It runs a little bit large in that I couldn't have worn the size 16 without a bra (straps were covered by the cardigan). I didn't wear spanks but probably should have.

Very dramatic and elegant, also surprisingly comfy
I wore it with blue velvet boots with a heel that went stunningly well (some of the net in the skirt is blue) and my hair up with black fake leaves for decoration. I kind of wished I had gone with a bra because the top wasn't quite tight enough to be supportive, even with the hook, but it's not really possible for me to move fast enough in heels for that to be a serious issue. The back is mostly bare, but doesn't feel indecent, probably because the whole thing is so stately. The effect is almost Edwardian, but without the uncomfortable corsets!

Not great for this pale larger person with a substantial chest.
It looked great on the dress form and on the darker skinned model, but on pasty pale me, the part of me covered by the dress looked healthier than my actual skin! Also, there's a lot less room in the chest than I expected given the large size (14). I don't think it's the greatest dress for the buxom.
