My best friend got married and it was an amazing time!
I'm short and round, and this dress did not work out the way I had hoped it would. It was too long and the bodice fit strangely. I found a way to style it eventually but I wasn't thrilled.

Graduated from undergrad!
The bust was comfortable, and the fit was nice, even when sitting for a couple of hours listening to speakers. It was a hot NYC day, and it actually held up well, even with a graduation robe on top. The only thing is that the cut was different from the photo, which appeared to be a fault of the system because the lovely girls at the flagship in NYC were confused also. The print is exactly the same. It was a fun dress, and great for the event.

Wore it to a Met Opera event, worked perfectly
I was apprehensive about the one shoulder, because I'm a busty lady, but it worked out great. I felt comfortable and glamorous all night. It hugged in the right places without making me feel self-conscious.

Went to the Met Opera for a performance of Carmen, got a lot of compliments!
Hugs exactly where I wanted it to (more in the bust area) and flowed out perfectly. I loved that I could wear a real bra with it. It's really a stunning piece.

I had a gala event at the Met Opera, and this dress was the perfect length and formality!
As a busty lady, the fit around the bust was great: sung, not tight, and held everything in one place. I was not wearing heels, so the dress skimmed the ground, but I liked that better. You will definitely need an extra pair of hand (or two) to help with the zipper, it's very temperamental!
