"I bought this dress for my rehearsal and rehearsal dinner for my upcoming wedding. I am in love with it. I was afraid of what I'd get after reading reviews online, so I headed to the mall to try it on. They didn't have it in store, so I decided to order online and send it back if it didn't fit.
I am so happy I took a chance. I ordered it in the pearl colour and it is just lovely. The material is a little heavy, but that's great for me since I'm getting married (and therefore rehearsing) on the beach where it will be windy. I read a review that the top was too loose and the back was too high, but I had neither of these problems. I'm 5'5" and 120 pounds. My normal size is a 2/4 and I ordered the 4 in this dress. I am a 34B and the top fits fine... and the back goes exactly to the same point it goes on the model. It's also not too short- in fact, when I sit down while wearing it, the material flows over my knees and doesn't worry me that I'll be exposing anything.
Definitely happy with this purchase, even if it was a bit on the expensive side. I'm not sure I'd pay the same amount for this dress again- even though I'd LOVE to have it in other colours."

Waist too high
(May 26, 2013)
"If you have a long torso like me, the waist is too high and the skirt too flared - it looks like a babydoll dress, which is fine, but not the look I was going for. Not sexy at all."

"I'm 5 10' so sometimes it's hard to find short dresses that aren't TOO short, but this was a PERFECT length and was very flattering. I'm also very flat chested but the bodice of the dress fit perfectly and I love the high neckline, get this dress, you'll wear it often and it's very versatile."

Graduation

"I bought this dress last year for my high school graduation and wore it again today for Easter. It definitely runs a little big so make sure it fits well in the front with a backless bra! Its a heavier sun dress because of the layers so it keeps me plenty warm in air conditioning! Definitely perfect for everything."

So cute.
(March 9, 2013)
"I was a bit scared of what I would get after the other reviews, but I was not disappointed! I listened to the advice that it runs big and got an 8 (down from my usual 10) and I'm glad I did because it fits perfect! The waist hits exactly at my natural waist, so it's quite slimming, and even though I usually find higher-necked things not to be flattering on my chest, it looked great. I got the green colour and it is as lovely as it looks on my screen, kind of a deep jade. Quality seems good, except the zipper tends to get stuck at the seam. The length is about mid-thigh, which is cool with me! For size reference, I am 5'9, 155lbs, and 34D-DD."

"The dress came, and I loved it, then I noticed the right side was much shorter than the left. I read more reviews and saw that people at problems with one side being longer/shorter. It is really pretty. I purchased the white, and loved it. I'll be returning because of the length."

"Bought one in black. Look stunning with some sparkling jewelry. I didn't put 5 stars bc the material wasn't as great as I thought but it's great for the price! I would totally buy another color like red or the teal one! The size runs big. I'm glad I listened to all other reviews and get one size smaller! I'm size 12 and I bought it in size 10 fits perfect!!!! Absolute love! Everyone go buy one! :)"

Cute dress, sloppily made
(January 30, 2013)
"I love backless dresses, so I was so excited when I found this style! I ordered one gray and one red color. I'm 5'8", 145lbs, pear-shaped, and usually wear a size 6. I ordered a size 4 based on everyone's recommendations to size down, and it fit well. However, the waist sat above my natural waist and the skirt was very full, so it wasn't very flattering on my body type.
As other reviewers had warned, I was disappointed to find the hem was very uneven, hanging a few inches longer on one side (as shown in the photo). Judging by the professional photos and the description, this definitely wasn't intentional. Unfortunately I'm going to have to return both dresses."

"I just got this dress in the mail after ordering it online.... Reading the other reviews was extremely helpful in determining what size to choose since I could not try it on in the store. I am 5' 11", 34 D, about 160, and I ordered a size 10 and it fits perfectly. It falls about 3 inches above my knee so it's long enough not to need leggings or tights underneath unless I was going to do some crazy twirly dancing. Haven't figured out the bra part yet, but it seems think enough in the front where you might not need one... Hope that helps!"

(January 28, 2013)
"I had been wearing a size 6 in most things and felt that I was on the larger end of that size so I felt comfortable ordering. The dress came in and I immediately through it in my suitcase and when I got to my destination it was waaaaay to big in the chest and back! I should have ordered the 4!"

"Girls, if you are debating about wether or not to buy this dress, DO IT. I debated for about two weeks until I gave in to my desire. Anyway, I'm 5'6", 150 lbs and I got size 6 and it fits me perfectly! If you're wondering if it will fit you or not, make sure you TAKE YOUR MEASUREMENTS! Oh I also got the green color and it is very beautiful!! And the back is sooo elegant..I love open back dresses. Happy buying!"

UNEVEN HEMLINE
(January 16, 2013)
"I have purchased two of these dresses in grey and the hemline is unbelievably uneven, sometimes as much as two inches in difference. Someone is just throwing these dresses together. Needless to say, I have returned both dresses. I will order one more and see if the hemline is even on this third one. It is best to try this dress on in the store because returning it is very inconvenient, especially if you are purchasing the dress to wear it right away."

Not Bad!
(January 11, 2013)
"This dress was quite a leap for me to purchase. I got it on sale so it was definitely worth it. I'm 6'1, 145 lbs, 34DD, and 27 inch waist. I got a size 4 and technically, it fits very well. The problem is that because I am so tall and have a rather large chest, it sits a little different from the photo. The waist is just under my chest, and makes me look obnoxiously large on top. I added a belt to it, and it makes my waist look unnaturally thin, but the skirt portion barely covers my butt. When I sit down, it is literally just underwear between my butt and the chair. It's rough. Other than me being a giant, it is a gorgeous dress. Worth the risk if you size down and are not too tall."

(January 10, 2013)
"I'm 135lbs, a 36C, and 5'8". I ordered this dress in a size 2 and I couldn't be happier!
The back lays so well on me and isn't too loose or tight. I can wear this with a bra or without one, and being a larger size in the chest area, it was comforting to know I could pull off that look without having saggy boobs or the top being see-through. This is the perfect length and my new favorite dress. WELL worth the money, and I highly suggest it!"

Beautiful...but runs really big!
(January 3, 2013)
"I tried this on in-store in a size 4, because it was the smallest size they had. I knew I wanted it, but I ordered it online in a 0 because the 4 was huge on me. Even the 0 was a little too big. For reference, I'm 5'6" and about 125lbs, 32C-34C. A friend borrowed the dress and she's smaller than I am (in all dimensions) and it was large on her. She's probably a true 0, whereas I normally wear a 2... so I wish this dress ran more true to size. It's a beautiful dress and I'll still wear it but I think I may have it tailored in a bit."
