I loved the dress the color was exactly what I wanted and I love the fit as well The train is very long but very elegant at the same time, I had to return it because it wasn't the right on reordering it in the correct sizeThe value of this dress is astonishing for the price. I was looking for a gown I could wad up and pack in a suitcase with two others and still have room to spare. This dress fits the bill, as it does not wrinkle easy! It came in a FedEx envelope nicely folded up, but I was of course expecting a wrinkle or two- there were none! I am 5'9, 170 lbs, and a 34 DD, and I ordered a size large in burgundy. I maybe should have ordered an XL because I did not account for boob size. My only complaint is that the cutout panels don't look quite so daring on me because they don't go as low as they do in the picture. The back is just exactly low cut enough to make my butt look fantastic without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction. The train has a two inch band of thick tulle netting sewn to the inside hem, and it makes the train ruffle very nicely. I feel like a James Bond Girl.Great dress!! For the price and time it was grea! I ordered in a small and extra small (I am usually a small) and kept the extra small! Definitely get a size down because of how stretchy the material is. One complaint is that there is a slip underneath and it was put in with the seams in the outside so sometimes wear visible and I kept having to pull it down since it was a short slip, this was only on the extra small though, on the small it was a floor length slip without seams showin, also the small cane with pads but the extra small did not! But other than those differences it was a great dress!We were in love with the pictures of this dress and my daughter wanted this dress to work prom, she is about a size 2 and 5'0" and we got the XS and it was still big. It is a beautiful dress, but it is a whole lot of dress. The dress overpowered her. Also, there is no lining in the chest area and you can see the outline of any type of bra worn. It does come with a sticky bra. I gave it 4 stars because it is a beautiful dress and I think it would great for someone taller.My daughter wore this for her Junior prom and it was absolutely perfect. It fit her just right and thankfully we didn’t have to alter it in any way because we weren’t able to purchase it until 3 days before her prom! The color looked amazing on her. The material is soft, comfortable and expensive looking. It was definitely well worth the price which was very affordable. I’m sure I would have had to pay at least 3 times the price and more if we bought something comparable at a dress store. My daughter is 5’10 and she wore about an inch and a half heel and she still had plenty of material at the bottom. For tall people like us this is great but for those that are shorter they will definitely have to get it altered. I would recommend this dress for all sizes because it’s just such a flattering silhouette. I may even purchase one for me in the future.We loved our dress.The material is heavyyyyy! I bought it as my prom dress and took it in to be picked up in the front a bit so I don’t trip or step on it. The lady I took it to said that there’s too much fabric in general and took a lot of it off which I absolutely loved and made the biggest difference! This is now going to be my “special occasion” dress. This is very strechy material so buy a size down.Absolutely LOVE this gown. It's drop dead stunning. I just wore it for my best friends wedding, I couldn't move 5 feet without getting a compliment. My girlfriend (the bride) loved it so much, I ordered one for her as well! The material is a heavy, stretchy, jersey like material. I am not typically a fan of clingy material, I eaither want it to be loose, or tight enough to suck me in. This material was the PERFECT compromise. As other reviews mentioned, it is long. I'm 5' 7" and I wore heels, you can see from the photos, there is still plenty of material for the train! I did not find myself tripping over the material when walking thankfully but you could sew a small look to hold it up with your fingers when walking :)
