Blakely Sequin Floral Embroidery Body-Con Cocktail Midi Dress

Sad to return this, but it's far to long for my height (and not quite right for the occasion). The boning at the top of the dress gave it a nice shape. The material itself between a sturdy lining and the material with the sequins on it gave it a good structure to pull in my belly and look slimming, even. I thought the top would get snug, but it was comfortable without being loose. It is much more glittery/reflective in person, there are a lot of sequins. I would not have purchased it, if I had realized how eye catching it was. For reference, I'm 5' 1" bust 42", waist 36", belly 40", hips 41.5".
