The beading on the bodice is gorgeous in person. However, the navy blue is a shade darker than it looked on my iPad, almost looking black indoors. The zipper is also a bit stiff at the waist seam, so my husband had to help me carefully pull it up. Still wearing it though!

The dress is elegant and the beading is sewn on really well. I have to admit, though, it's a bit tight around the thighs when I sit down. I got my regular size, but sizing up might have been better to stay comfortable during the reception. It still looks great, anyway.

Fits like a glove! The elastic satin gives just enough stretch to stay comfortable after dinner.

I was unsure about the colour, but in natural light it looks amazing, super bright and really flatters my skin tone. The fabric is breathable, I didn't sweat at all despite being so excited. The sleeves are just a little bit long on me, but no big deal.

Absolutely beautiful beading. Got so many compliments from my family. Highly recommend!
