The color was exactly like the picture, which rarely happens.

I struggle with finding formal wear that covers my upper arms without looking frumpy, and these cape sleeves are the perfect solution. The rhinestone belt area draws the eye in and gives you a nice shape. I will say, make sure you check the size chart carefully because the bust area runs a little snug if you are larger up top.

The only thing is that the rhinestones are a bit delicate, so you have to be careful when washing it or hanging it next to other clothes. But for the price and the look, it was totally worth it.

I bought this for a formal charity gala and got so many compliments on the color. It fits pretty true to size, though I did have to get the hem taken up a bit because I'm on the shorter side. The scoop neck is very flattering without being too revealing, which I appreciate. It feels surprisingly lightweight for a floor-length gown, so I wasn't sweating all evening. The little bow adds a sweet detail, though the zipper was a tiny bit sticky at first. Once it was on, though, it looked way more expensive than it actually was.

I honestly wasn't sure what to expect ordering online for such a big event, but this dress was a pleasant surprise. I wore it to my son’s wedding last month and felt really comfortable the whole night.
