It was a perfect glamorous dress for a Valentine's Dy date with hubby!
As others have said, the neckline is very deep, so be prepared with double-sided tape or pins to secure the neckline. Otherwise, the fit is good, and the rouching is good to hide the mid section if you want (like me).

A luxurious dress that will make you feel amazing!
I usually do not like pinks, but this dress has made me question that! The shade of pink was just subtle without being overwhelming or too loud. But the velvet fabric made this feel very luxurious. I wore this for a birthday date, and it was the right mix of sexy and glamor!

It was a party to celebrate our conference.
The color was amazing, and the asymmetric hemline was made for dancing. However, it was still very tight around my bust that i could not zip it up all the way (covered it up with a jacket).

It was the event to honor our Board members.
The dress was amazing.....very comfortable and easy to move in. The color was a deep wine, which was perfect for me, since it matched the colors of the event itself.

Too risque!
The cut outs at your neck/chest is definitely not appropriate for work events, especially if you are a full busted woman like me!!!

It was amazing - felt like a glamorous movie star!
The dress was beautiful and fit well! The blue at the bottom is darker than it looks in the picture on the website (more of a midnight blue). But that only made the dress look classy. And there were no "poking" issues even with all that sequins.

The color was truly exceptional, as well as the peek-a-boo details, and it shows what you got!
Pros: Unique color, details. It definitely is made for a curvy body and shows off all your assets! Cons: You cannot zip this up easily, or by yourself! I ordered this for a work event when I was travelling by myself, and it took me almost 15 minutes to get the zip up by myself. You need to be a very flexible, but I think part of the problem is that the zipper is not well integrated into the dress. Hence, the 4 stars instead of 5.

I rented this for a NYE date with husband
It was really a great dress! The gold sheen is subtle, but every elegant. The cloth is very think, so it doesn't show any love handles and the flare of the skirt is definitely great for an apple body/someone with full hips. Definitely a "hit" rental!

A very comfortable dress when I needed to run errands and look good doing it!
I had to wear a very thin bar underneath as it was a little tight for me just in the chest area. But otherwise, the fit was great - especially the cut of the waistline. Usually, I don't like high-waisted dresses, since it makes my short torso looks even more chopped up, but this one was perfect. It also comes with POCKETS, but doesn't make your hips look too wide or add bulk there. Overall, a really great dress that can work well in office and also transition for an evening look.

The colors in the dress were a perfect match to the colors of the award ceremony event! Fabulous!
As many others have noted, the sleeves tend to fall down from your shoulders - it's a quirky thing, since the fit everywhere else is fine, just not in the shoulders. I luckily needed to wear a jacket for the event, so this covered it up, but if you are planning to wear this, definitely consider using some fashion tape or double-sided tape.

I wore this for a New Year's Eve party as it would be something different from black or gold!
As many have mentioned, the arms are cut a little weird, but it fit fine. If you are busty like me, try going up one size and wearing a starless bra.

Not having a dress to wear when I had been looking fwd to this special b'day date for weeks.
This dress is tight and heavy, and if you are a bug-busted woman like me (regardless of how small your waist/bum is), then you need one or TWO sizes up! Good luck!

Should have listened to all the reviews here - this dress runs large, & is NOT made for a full bust.
The dress is NOT suited for anyone who has a full bust AND short torso. Unless you look like the lean and thin model shown wearing this, this will not suit you well.
