A second wrote: "Lovely dress, very flattering, just the right length for me at 5ft 6ins. Will enjoy wearing it." A third penned: "I ordered this dress one evening. It arrived the following day, I loved it, I had been looking for a dress for my daughter's wedding for weeks with no luck, as soon as I took this dress out if the packaging I knew it was the one."
One shopper docked a star due to sizing, mentioning: "Would have been five stars, however size 10 was the smallest size so I had to alter. A size eight would have been perfect. Lovely evening or special occasion dress. Very flattering." Another four-star review declared: "Very comfortable dress to wear and the length of the skirt was correct. The overall fit is good for me, I feel a million dollars wearing this dress."
Someone else loved their purchase, adding: "Beautiful colour. Fitted bodice with fine, floaty material. Looks expensive." Another five-star review reads: "Beautiful dress. Fitted perfectly, comfortable and ideal for [a] wedding."
