I bought the UK size 18. It was a little tight across my back and around the waist, so looking back I probably should have used the custom dress option and had it made to my exact measurements, as it runs a bit small. I wore it to a recent dinner dance where the theme was royal blue, and the colour was absolutely gorgeous, so vibrant! I had to get the draped sleeve altered slightly as it was a little too big on me, which you can see in one of the photos, but other than that the dress was super comfortable and had a bit of stretch to it. Because it's satin, I would definitely recommend getting it steamed before wearing it to get rid of any wrinkles from being folded and packed during shipping. I got so many compliments on the dress, especially on the colour and how flattering it was. It really sculpted my body and the ruching was in all the right places. I’m quite self-conscious about my upper arms, and the falling sleeve covered exactly the area I wanted while still showing a little bit of shoulder, which made the dress feel elegant and sleek. One thing I'd recommend is giving yourself plenty of time when ordering. I live in Ireland and mine took almost three weeks to arrive. Overall, I felt really good and confident wearing it and I was thrilled with how it looked. I’ll definitely be ordering this dress again in another colour, especially since I have a few special birthday celebrations coming up! ❤️

I'm totally obsessed with the neckline! The cowl drape is super elegant and gives it that classic vintage vibe. It fits perfectly on the chest.

Surprisingly lightweight, but not see-through at all. Really great quality.

The zipper is super smooth and feels nice and sturdy. Absolutely no snagging, which is a huge plus for me.

The straps are super comfortable and don't dig into my shoulders at all. Absolutely love it!
