As a mother of the bride who didn't want to look like a "traditional" mother of the bride, this dress was a breath of fresh air. It’s modern but still modest enough for church. I was dancing up a storm at the reception, and the skirt has such a nice movement to it when you spin. The fabric doesn't breathe super well, so I got a little warm during the outdoor photos, but once we were inside with the AC, it was fine. I’d recommend checking the size chart carefully because the measurements are exact. I measured myself twice just to be sure, and it fit like a glove when it arrived.

I’ve been looking for a dress for my 25th anniversary dinner, and this tea-length style caught my eye. I'm on the shorter side, so usually "tea length" looks like a maxi on me, but this actually hit at a flattering spot on my calf. The one-shoulder design is very chic and makes me feel a bit younger and stylish. The material is thick enough that it smooths everything out, which is a huge plus. My only small gripe is that the armhole on the sleeveless side was cut a little high, rubbing slightly by the end of the night. But honestly, for the way it looked, I could deal with a little discomfort.

It’s a versatile dress that I think I can wear to a few different weddings this year, just by changing up my accessories and shoes.

I honestly wasn't sure about ordering a formal dress online for my son's wedding, but this one really surprised me. The satin fabric feels way more expensive than what I paid, and the weight is just right—not too heavy but not flimsy either. I was worried the one-shoulder style might slip or feel awkward, but it stayed in place all night while I was dancing. The tea length was perfect for an outdoor garden ceremony since I didn't have to worry about the hem dragging in the grass. I did have to get the waist taken in slightly, but that’s standard for me. Overall, a really solid choice if you want to look elegant without trying too hard.

Nothing a little fashion tape couldn't fix! I really appreciated that it has pockets—every dress should have pockets! It was comfortable enough to wear for six hours straight, which is rare for formal wear. It arrived pretty wrinkled, but a quick steam smoothed it right out. Definitely worth the price.
