This dress fit beautifully and I got lots of compliments while wearing it. The tulle is quite delicate and got a few small rips the first time I wore it, but it's still completely wearable.

This dress is beautiful!! It's just like other reviews said, the picture doesn't give it justice it's glamorous and the jewels are sensational they really hit the light. It's gold but just the right color of gold, yes goldish like Belle from Beauty and the Beast. I don't typically buy a dress like this but I thought why not try it, it looked great and reviews were great. I bought it for a wedding which is semi-formal. Even though it was beautiful once I put it on I understood what another review said it's really dressy and I don't have anywhere this dressy that It would make sense to wear it to. It is really like out of a princess story or ball type or very ornate wedding. So sadly I'm returning it. I'm normally a size 4 in US sizes and I buy dresses in size 6 when I buy from Amazon. I bought a size 8 and it fit perfect. I am 5.2 and 130 lbs, sometimes I get dresses and they fit everywhere except the arms end up too tight. I have athletic arms, not large but not little thin ones and this dress the arms fit just great. Yes you probably will want to hem the bottom up if you are shorter like me. The top part was a little large over the collar bone area but not bad and maybe would have settled once it was hung up for awhile. This is a beautiful dress and when you hold the bottom out it is just like the picture, except not super thin model but very elegant and regal. I agree the belt doesn't look as nice with the dress, it's a nice satin gold ribbon belt which it should look fine but I think it looked better without but it's personal preference.

I really wanted this dress. I loved seeing all the photos customers posted. It was very helpful in deciding to buy or not. However, there is only 1 photo of the dress in GREY. It looked like the beading could be gold instead of silver or grey. So I bought it in case I was wrong. I wasn't wrong. The beading is gold, like 14k gold. I really really wish it was silver or grey. Then I would have given it 5 stars! It is a gorgeous dress and looked ok on me. I ordered an 18. The lining is slimmer than the mesh overlay, I was hoping so. It's very elegant. The liner is a very low sweetheart neckline (lots of cleavage) and is only in the front. I noticed in some of the customer photos there wasn't an appliqué in the cleavage area. There is on mine. I'm happy about that!!! There is only mesh and appliqués on the sides and back. I'm going to have to figure out the bra situation. I tried this dress on both ways, with and without a bra. For me A BRA IS A MUST!!! I'm 56 and the girls are not perky and I have a high waist. So without a bra, it doesn't look like I have a waist and makes my chest look too wide. Maybe a nude bra won't be so noticeable. Also there is a satin belt that simply hooks, like bra hooks, it can easily be where you need it to be, wherever your waist is. I'm the mother of the groom at an October 2019 wedding. I want to look my best. Out of the 4 dress I bought this is the keeper. Maybe I'll remember to come back a post pictures after the wedding. Excellent communication by the seller.

I'm 5'3", aprox 140lbs, 38-29-40, 32F bra. I purchased a size 12. It arrived in exactly a week. The dress was lovely. I would buy from this seller again. All of the girls at prom who spent $700 on their dresses could not believe I found this gem on Amazon for under $200. The only problems I had with this dress were entirely personal and forseeable because I am a picky short hourglass. I think that if you love this dress as much as I did and the only thing holding you back from buying it is the lack of reviews, you should throw caution to the wind and order it. The dress was about 4-5in too long, which I was expecting because I am considered petite. The dress had excess material bunch at the waist, which I again expected because of my chest to waist ratio. I did have the dress altered and it was a completely awful experience and waste of money, but it's okay because my dress was still very beautiful and no amount of crooked hemming could change that. The dress does not look like the advertised picture and I was completely okay with that because I feel that what I received was more unique. The slip is more gold than nude. There are four layers: two soft gold slips and 2 mesh layers. Up close the decaling is a bit old ladyish or vintage, whichever term you prefer. The neckline of the sheer decaling goes to my collar bones. The plunging neckline of the slip goes a little past where a normal bra band at the front is. I purchased a clear straped and backless bra from Amazon and taped my chest in. The back of the dress to the waist is sheer with decaling all over it. Sheer enough that you could see my bra band through it when I tried to wear a normal bra, but has enough rhinestones (?) on it that you couldnt see my horrendous tan lines. The sleeves are absolutely beautiful, but were bigger on me than I had liked. If you find a good seamstress, it shouldn't be a problem to fix them. The zipper in the back is not obnoxiously noticeable and goes down to the top of my bum where it gets stuck in the same place everytime I zip it up. Jimmy it a little and you'll be fine. The dress itself is timeless and I felt like the belt was a good idea, but did not go with the dress. I cut it off and wore a belt I purchased from Amazon. I think that this dress can be worn by any age. If you're worried about modesty, I'm sure you could find a tanktop to wear underneath. Or if you're more talented than me (and the seamstress I paid a leg and an arm for) you could probably sew something to be more conservative.

Runs small but extremely well designed like the photo.
