 Much more flattering than you might think November 11, 2008

Great dress, it has all the sexiness of old skool Hollywood glam from the 1930's era. I bought this in Sage green 2x and it looks spectacular with peacock feather earrings and bold red lipstick. It's a great design for curvy girls - it really works an hourglass figure - and makes one when you haven't got one. I ended up wishing my hips were a little bigger(!!) to fill out the dress to its potential, but that's the fault of my top-heavy, waist/hipless body, not the dress. What was really important for me was that there was enough give in the bust that I could wear it without looking smashed in, so it was worth it being a little roomy in the waist and hip. The sage green color was a little warmer toned than the picture suggests, and absolutely perfect for a green-eyed brunette with olive skin. The color was refreshing, I am getting so tired of black dresses! Big girls, give this dress a chance! Posted measurements seem to be right on.
The picture doesn't do this gown justice! October 7, 2008

I was a little hesitant buying a dress online, and from a company I had never heard of.
DO NOT FEAR. This dress is beautiful and unique! The fabric is soft, silky, and of good quality. And very flattering for most shapes. I got the green, which is an amazing color - very different.
I actually ordered a size that was too big for me...and had the easiest experience returning it for a smaller size. I emailed the company and got a response right away to return the larger size and they put the smaller size on hold for me. From sending the larger size back to receiving the smaller size was inside a week.
I just couldn't be more pleased, and would not hesitate to order from this company again.
Great dress June 17, 2008
I ordered this dress for my beach wedding in Florida, and it fits me great.I am very top heavy 38L, and this dress fit my chest and the rest of my body perfectly. I can't wait to wear this dress next month for my wedding.

I bought this dress for prom and it's ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! I was nervous buying such an important dress via internet, but it's turned out beautifully. I ordered the large (L), and though my bust doesn't quite fill it, everything else is comfortably snug (plus, it stretches in any tight areas so there's plently of free movement). To fix the bust issue, I'm simply going to shorten the shoulder straps with a little elbow grease. A sitch to fix. There were a few loose strands by the zipper and I cut those immediately so as to not snag them later on.
And the best part: the length. I was worried about that because it isn't mentioned anywhere in the description, but it's right on. Without heels, about an inch is touching the floor. When I put on a 3 or 4 inch heel, it's PERFECT length. By the way, I'm just under 5'7''.
Be sure to wear suitable underwear and garments however- especially in the butt region. It's tight and definately form fitting, so unless you like the commando style, get some comfy spankies- nude color. As for the bra, pretty much any regular one would work. I used a push up (duh) with normal straps. It works fine.
This dress was cheap, true to its color, and true to the fitting chart. The material and form is SO comfortable AND flattering. I'd recommend this dress to anyone who is trusting enough to order online.
This dress totally rocks.... *Very* forgiving design January 6, 2008

Just a quick note to tell you that I love this dress. I'm a normal size 12 in jeans, 40C bra size, 12-14 in misses dresses, I ordered a XL and it fits great. It has a bit of stretch to it so don't order it to big if you want a fitted sexy look. I wasn't quite sure if all the runching (esp on the butt) would look right but honestly- it's great. I'm very top heavy and it holds the girls in just fine, and I can wear a real bra with it because the straps are decent (I love that). But my friend also got this dress and is like a B cup and it looks great on her as well. Im ordering it in another color right now because I like it so much. (And because I haven't quite worked off the 5 pounds I gained during christmas lol) This dress is a great rescue for that. Nothing worse than going to a wedding that you're supposed to be enjoying and thinking the whole time "OMG I can't breathe and I fee like a whale-- how many more minutes till I can get this stupid dress off?!"
As for the woman who complained of the workmanship- I don't see any major flaws in mine. The dress obviously doesn't have couture finishes and linings, but I think it's fine. After all, it's a $70 dress. You get what you pay for. And if you're looking for something to wear to a wedding, or a prom- go for it. I don't know about how it'll wear over time, but honestly I don't wear any of these type dresses more than a few times anyway.
And with this dress I won't even be able to get away with it because everyone complimented me on it, and I'm with the same group of people they will probably notice if I wear it again!
