This dress is as beautiful as the picture. We ordered the teal for a wedding. Putting it on feels much like putting on a wedding gown: it’s heavy, stiff, noisy, has a built in corset with the stiff boning/ribbing; packaging has twisted the boning some, so we’ll have to work with having the bust lay nicely. Did discover one of the bust cups had fallen into the hem; had to maneuver that back up to the bust and tack it in. For the corset, the dress includes a detached lace-up of fabric that matches the underlining cream colored fabric. It’s inside the dress for shipping. Assistance is required to lace it up; lacing goes from tailbone up. There’s a modesty panel under the lacing. There is no zipper. Sleeves fit snugly; my arms are small for being in my 60s: just beware! The tulle overlay is unhemmed. It’s going to be a bit delicate: caution needed to avoid tearing that tulle! This is probably not a dress to wear frequently! The dress could be WARM; we’ll soon find out! Give yourself plenty of time in advance if ordering for an event. It arrived well before scheduled, but if alterations are needed, you’ll be glad you ordered EARLY!! ~Sara~Wouldn’t recommend.Dress came in too big all over but especially in the chest. Also, there is so much padding in the chest that if you have a smaller chest, you most likely will not fill it out (like myself). The amount of padding was terrible. Made me look very boxy. And just overall unflattering. The dress seems more like costume dress than a dress that would cost the price that it’s listed.Also, I wouldn’t recommend buying if you are not 100% sure you will keep it. Returning it wasn’t easy. Their listing says “FREE returns” and they refunded me $16 for me to pay to ship it back myself. Said they could not provide a label as they ship from China.Again, I wouldn’t recommend. Wasn’t worth the trouble or effort.Me encanto , su figura , el color y lo sentí muy cómodo, solo tuve un poco de dificultad con la electricidad que Jade el vestido. Pero lo solucione , así que lo recomiendo?Every thingThis is no ordinary dress, it’s made more like a costume. I ordered a size up and it’s still too small. ~Cost to return to China is around $60!~ I contacted the seller for a return address other than China.**Update on review**. The seller responded immediately to my inquiry about my shipping concern and they supplied a local return address, which ended up costing around $11.The material is good, but is too small I'm a size 8, I order size 10, still fit small. I have to figure now how to fixed since I oder this to wear at my daughter's quinceañera.The dress is great quality and absolutely beautiful! The sleeve/arm area where the sleeve connects to shoulder of dress was sown too small. This had to be altered by my seamstress. Definitely a flaw when dress was made. Otherwise the dress was a perfect fit and a big hit at my function.I liked the fit of the dress & I wore it to my friends birthday/prom occasion
