This dress is for sure a conversation piece. I felt like royalty while wearing it. I had to have it tailored, and it cost more than the dress ($55) , but it was worth it. I would've gave it 5 stars but it kept coming down around the bust, and I'm a 34D. I kept pulling it up all night, and at times my strapless bra was exposed in the back.Otherwise, I like the dress and made me feel fierce. I ordered a medium; I'm 5'7 and weigh 143.

Wow! What a steal! I purchased this for pictures. For refrence I bought a Large and I wear size 14 bottoms and M/L top. For a more comfortable fit I should have sized up and the probably altered the top to be tighter but because I'm gonna take pictures I don't want there to be any extra room so I'm keeping my large!
I am wearing a waisttrainer in the picture and no bra, but probably need to go buy one of those stick on ones. There isn't any support on the dress as all but it's cut so well that some spandex and a decent strapless will do the trick.

I read the reviews before buying thins dress. So I went ahead and bought a medium instead of a large and it fit nicely but I could have fit into a small for a tighter fit. I love it

Excellent dress for the price ... there are many positives and of course some minor negatives. I'm 6'1, 185cm, 150lbs, 36B-28-38, US size 6-8. I ordered a size SMALL. Great call on my part which I based on the reviews about the top fitting properly as well as the bodice staying in place.

I just watched a Say Yes to The Dress episode that included a bit about how one of a kind dresses are more expensive based upon the structure and lining "inside of a dress". This dress has no lining and there is no structure to it. Now, that is to be expected seeing how it is so inexpensive. Basically, you need to have either proper undergarments or fit the dress exactly according to your measurements and the sizing. I happen to be a perfect fit for the size small. This is not necessarily a dress you can dance in or move around a lot in without having to pull up on the bodice frequently. I did not mind because I was hosting an event and I couldn't sit down anyway. Also I'm fine with the fact that I'll probably never wear that dress again unless I get straps added so that the top would stay in place more easily.

I gave this dress five stars because it was long enough and being a tall person that's often an issue. Secondly, it was very dramatic very beautiful looking, although up close it is very inexpensive looking. Because I wore it well, I definitely stood out and was complimented numerous times. Thirdly, when a dress fits properly people think it looks more expensive. I was fortunate not to have needed tailoring to trim the dress. Any petite person would need several inches taken off so you're not tripping constantly.

The downsides: Firstly, some of the fabric lining along the back came undone the night before and I had to manually sew so it. Also the zipper was a little bit difficult to move up and down. Thirdly, the clasp which holds the dress at the top of the zipper fell off after the first time I tried it on. I couldn't even find it.
Lastly, as you can see from the pictures, although I'm not that chesty I do feel the dress need a more fabric and structure up top. That being said, I certainly wasn't afraid of falling out of the dress, but I would have liked to be more secure in the bust area. If you are woman who is top heavy or do not fit the measurements exactly, this might not be the dress for you. But again I give it five stars because of the price and the overall dramatic effect. It was exactly what I needed and worth the minor hassle of sewing.

I got this dress for a wedding I was in and was able to use it again for my engagement photos!! I loved the way it fit and the long train! I will say you need to make sure you wear proper undergarments so you don't get any lines showing through the gown!!
