This wasn't my first (or second) choice in evening wear, but I needed something for a couple nights of fine dining while on vacation and it was available. The top is a stretch knit while the bottom is a sturdy (but surprisingly light weight) woven jacquard. It spent the better part of 2 weeks in a garment bag and that sucker never creased or wrinkled a bit (I wore it at the beginning and at the end of the trip). It was also quite comfortable for sitting and eating in. Not the most glamourous of gowns but extra marks for durability. I opted for the regular length rather than long and it ended slightly above my ankles, which I preferred to floor grazing.

I liked the dress, but picked a size based on the reviews and size charts and it was huge! I'm a 34C/D with 29" natural waist and I probably could have worn a 10 (size charts sounded like British sizing, which is why I selected the 14). Couldn't wear it.

It was cute, but I'm 5'8" and proportionally average and I was one deep breath away from a wedgie while wearing it.

Fun pants, I felt festive. However, I noticed right before I left the house (always look at all angles!) that you could see my undies right through the pants. Luckily I had a pair of footless black tights that did the trick, but these are definitely see-through on their own.
