Top is long
The waist on this one makes it TTS and it's beautifully flattering! But the top is quite long. Best if you have a long torso or are sporty so the waist drops a bit. Otherwise there's too much fabric up top. If I were to buy this, a tailor would cut 2-3 inches from the shoulders and keep the waist where it is. The skirt was a perfect length for me to wear with heels. Overall a super fun dress I would have loved to wear, but it required too much work for my specific trip.

Pretty, but not for everyone
The skirt is quite short, and I'm 4'11! The straps were not adjustable & kept slipping down. The waist was tight with no stretch and you can see in the pic that the top bunched on my short torso. So this dress would work best on ladies with a long torso and defined waist so you wouldn't get drooping straps and extra fabric. Not good for apple shapes as the silhouette is too form-fitting to be flowy, yet not tight/bodycon enough to hold you in. I had to wear spanx, not ideal in warm weather.

Comfortable, beautiful
A dreeeam of a dress, I still think about buying it! Breathable in hot weather even with the details and fabric. The straps are adjustable so you can ensure the bust and waist land where they're supposed to. It has just enough structure to give shape, while still remaining comfortable. It skims the body rather than being bodycon/tight or loose/flowy. On my 4'11 frame it was a midi dress, but the silhouette lends itself to being a knee-length on taller ladies.

Perfect for bachelorette in Mexico!
The material is not typical embroidery, almost like a crochet yarn, so it was softer and had a good amount of stretch. I labeled it TTS but I think this will vary based on body type. The sillhouette is like a 1920s shift, with a drop waist that flares out the teeniest bit at the hips. So if you prefer a defined waist, this will not be for you. I would recommend curvy ladies size down, so it will skim your shape. More sporty body types might want to size up, so it will hang w/out bunching.

Not good for petite ladies with a short torso
Beautiful dress and TTS, but the bodice was a bit long for my petite frame! The waist sat comfortably in the right spot, so the top was very droopy with extra material. A tailor would have cut a good three inches from the top. Perhaps if you're petite but have a long torso, or are very curvy up top, it will work on you!

So many compliments!
Loved this dress, it doesn't have boning but the fit & flare cut has a cinching effect that gives you the teeniest waist. The material and colors were perfect for a semi formal wedding. Best of all: IT HAS POCKETS! Seriously considered buying it. Only weird thing is it has a petticoat with a ring around the bottom to flare the skirt out, and the ring was smushed. I assume this happened during washing, it's not a material that should do that. If I had an iron I would have tried to smooth it out.
