Couldn't get the dress to stay on my shoulders
First of all, this is a late review from me. I bought this dress a year ago and already returned it. The picture looked perfect, but the material is very heavy and stretchy. I had the 4P; still it fell off my shoulders easily, when it did, the whole upper fell off to the waist area. I could not do that dress. Unless you use tape to secure it to the shoulders, but why bother, there are many good fit gowns to choose from.

Great dress!
It’s a well-made dress. The color is very pretty and the brooch at the waist is a nice touch.

Finally the perfect dress!
I literally ordered 14 dresses trying to find the perfect one for a wedding. I fell in love with this one and it was perfect. I am very self-conscious about my poochie belly and flabby arms. This dress hid it well.. plus a built in bra, so don’t have to worry about bra straps showing! I am 68 but have beautiful gray hair and the dark blue looks attractive with it. The only issue is I went back to my invitation and realized it was supposed to be semi formal. Was torn about keeping this dress since I really can’t see me going to any formal functions. My friends suggested I should have it shortened to midi which I need to do anyway since I’m only 5’3 inches and it’s a too long. So planning on taking it back to Nordstroms for alterations. :)

Stylish but Cheap
I read other reviews about the dress but decided to order anyways based on how the pictures portrayed the style of it. No doubt, it is cute. However the fabric is all wrong. It is a polyester jersey material that takes away from the design qualities. I don’t like it and am returning the dress.

Beautiful dress
Such a beautiful dress with a touch of bling. Love the top of the dress, very elegant. Love the eggplant color.

Not for me.
People liked it in the fitting room but I didn't care for the way the back hung and ended up returning it. It was a beautiful eggplant color.
