Loved this dress for my red carpet event... I wanted purple and after reading the reviews, I ordered burgundy because everyone said it was actually purple and they were right! I had to hem because I decided to NOT use a hoop underneath and I like the look without the hoop.... I got so many compliments on it! The corset was perfect and I felt supported and partied all night. Oh, I am 5'4" and 170 lbs and ordered a size 10.Beautiful Dress. She measured more of a 12 but should have gotten a 14. No issues returning though. Would buy again but didn’t have her size in the color needed. Will definitely look at them for another when needed. Transaction and shipping was fast arrived a day early.This dress exceeded expectations! Great value and fast delivery, thank youFit good. Was a slightly different color than expected but obviously it turned out to match my dates tux well. My date was my now ex fiancé and we recently broke up because he cheated on me, but wanted to include a picture of him, my mom and I to show that it matched well despite being a different color than advertised (but not by much)!!I got negative looks from classmates but that’s bc I’m not skinny and wearing skin tight dresses like they were. I felt absolutely beautiful wearing this dress. It no longer fits me though..This dress is stunting.... just stunning. Even if your just trying it out (basiclly all regular in your house), it looks beautiful. so you can just imagine when you do yourself up for the event. It fits as expected ( but measuring yourself is very important) even if you get one size to small, because of the tie string in the back it could be adjusted ( but everyone shouldn't go off of that because it depends on your body type), but for my daughter this was the case. I did notice (before purchasing) the comments about certain colors. I didn't see one about burgundy, so I purchased it. The burgundy on the picture looks like a deep red, so we purchased it, because that's the color that she wanted. When it came, we noticed the dress seemed more like a purplish color. (So put burgundy on the list of slightly off colors) but because the dress is so gorgeous, this was for her junior prom, and she does love the color purple we kept the dress anyway. So the reason why I'm giving this 5 stars is because the dress is such great quality and it's just so beautiful, that it kind of makes you forget about the minor off of color. But that depends on how much of a stickler you are for color, depending on the event you need it for. FYI this is her dressed without a petticoat. And the dress (depending on your height) is long. she's 5 3, and got a size 10 (which fit her perfectly). So hopefully when we do purchased the Petticoat, because she wants more fluff, it'll take care of the length issue. Otherwise just get it hemmed.This dress is beautiful and true to size. The color is lovely but leans more on the blue side of teal. I’d call it “Deep Ocean Blue”. It does need a petticoat to make it more full. It is well constructed/sewn. It has an elastic fastener in the back, similar to a bra, that helps it stay in place. Small compromises to make this affordable: the lacing is made of the same fabric as the ruffles, so it’s lightweight fabric. This dress does not end with a zipper and has the corset laces going all the way down your back to your mid bottom. These compromises don’t take away from the look or function of the dress in any way. We are 100% satisfied with the dress and would order from this company again with complete confidence. My daughter did wear a black shirt underneath to give it sleeves and to cover up the acne she had on her back. That was her personal choice to feel comfortable during the dance.This dress was the Epitome of Perfection to say the least. I wore this dress to New Orleans Mardi Gras themed Zulu Ball Cornation. I didn't see one other person with this dress. THANK GOD! I bought this dress at the last minute. I didn't take any of my measurements. I ordered a size 18 the dress fit perfect except the panel in the back inside the corset. My back is kinda wide so I got my seamstress to add some fabric to make it wider. It probably would have fit fine but because its Corset it depends on how you lace it up. I didn't want it to be so tight I couldn't breath so I just added some more fabric Easy fix. I got sooooooooo many compliments on this dress.The construction of this dress was quality material. The great thing is you can wear it the dress with or without a petticoat skirt under it. I wore mine without it but I did try the dress on with the petticoat and it looked amazing both ways. The seller was very good about responding to my email the same night I ordered even though it was late. The shipping was very fast I ordered Wednesday received my package Friday. I would definitely buy from this seller again.Surprisingly well made dress for the price! So big and poofy! It fit just as expected when I bought it.I did take off the sequins around the waist and added my own belt, but the waist sequins were very nice (and came off easily with a seam ripper!)
