The fabric of the dress isn’t as shiny as it is on the picture (not as big a deal but still not what I was expecting). The draping on the chest is a bit too loose. The slit of the dress is more towards the center of the dress than it is to the side which is a bit of an odd placement for the slit to be in. The biggest issue with this dress is that it is miles long. I am 5’4” and even with my biggest heels I am going to have to remove about 6 inches from the bottom in order to not be swamped in this. The corset back is gorgeous and the waist band has some stretch to it so if your weight fluctuates a bit this dress should still fit which I love. Overall it’s a good dress for a pretty good price but it might need some alterations in the end.
