I'm not a huge lace fan but this was a very pretty and versatile dress. Being black, it would have worked for the formal event with the right jewelry. Be warned, however, that these are women's sizes and they run larger than usual. The dress was cut to show off your curves, so it's needs to fit well. It was a flattering cut but the 14W was too large for me. I could have gone a size smaller (or regular 14). Also note that it has a large, visible zipper in the back that runs to the hemline. In my opinion, it made the dress a bit more casual. Would definitely consider it again in a different size.

Loved this dress. Was concerned it would be too sparkly but not al all. The dark blue color and simple cut was a very classic look. The dress runs true to size, maybe a bit large but it was fine because of the straight lines. It's not a dress that should be snug. I'm 5'1" and it hit at my knees. Since the dress was sequins, I chose a pair of simple chandelier rhinestone earrings and no necklace. For shoes, I went with a silver metallic sling backs. This is a comfortable dress and I felt great in it.
