This dress is really beautiful. It has a wow factor to it becuase of its beautiful detailing. The fabric color is a grayish silver cast, making it a perfect dress for the more mature look. My daughter is a 0 or 2, but we tried the 4 anyway since they didn't have 0 or 2 - it runs true to size, as the 4 was too big, so unfortunately we must return. If you think you can carry the color - definitely try this dress - it is simply elegant.

Beautiful Gown - but not for "Petite Gals"

This is a beautiful gown... weighs almost 5 lbs. though. Unfortunately I had to return - Ran large and long on me, but I'm quite petite, 5' 1" and 106 lbs.

Stunning dress
November 28, 2011
This is a stunning dress, sexy and fun and the color is amazing. I'm looking for a dress for my spring wedding that could be worn after.
The dress is beautiful and well made. I would love to have kept it, but had to return due to the bust being too small (I'm a D cup). The dress was also too long in the size 12 - I'm 5'6" - even with heels.

Stunning Dress

I was pleasantly surprised when this arrived. It has a subtle leopart print among the swirls appearing in the picture, and has a softly pleated skirt. I have seen other gowns in the past made from pleated satin that I did not like - this pleated silk falls more gracefully around the hem. The dress runs a little tight around the bust, and the feathers tend to come off some.

More matronly appearance
November 05, 2011
I loved the dress, style and beautiful color. The problem is that it is a more matronly style and not what I was desiring for this event. Beautifully beaded and well constructed.
Riotous dots and mesmerizing swirls pattern a lightweight crinkled tunic accented with a handful of beads at the Empire waist, setting off the surplice V-neckline.
High/low hem.
Approx. length from shoulder: front 28"; back 34".
Metallic threads and sequins add subtle sparkle and shine to an airy poncho patterned with open-work chevron stitches and finished with a sheer, embroidered hem scalloped along the bottom for a shape reminiscent of the '20s.
Crisp pleats framing the button placket release to add swirling volume to a gauzy crêpe de Chine tunic covered with an exotic animal print. A soft knit camisole gives the sheer style opaque coverage.
Front button closure.
Button-tab detailed cuffs.
Camisole lining has adjustable straps.
Approx. length from shoulder: front 35"; back 27".
