Bought this for a charity gala last weekend. The off the shoulder look is super elegant without being too much. Had to get it hemmed, but otherwise a really solid dress.

The satin material feels really nice and heavy, definitely not cheap. I will say the color was a tiny bit darker than it looked on my phone screen, but honestly I ended up loving it anyway. Just needed a quick steam out of the package and it was good to go!

I was honestly super nervous about ordering a dress like this online for my son's wedding but it turned out better than expected. The matte satin feels surprisingly heavy and has a really nice drape to it when I walk. I did have to spend a good twenty minutes steaming it because the packaging left some pretty stubborn creases around the mermaid skirt area. Once that was sorted out though it looked amazing. The lace detailing on the sleeves is soft and didn't scratch my arms at all even after wearing it for almost ten hours straight. It hugs my hips nicely without feeling like I'm totally restricted when I sit down for dinner. The off the shoulder neckline stayed in place pretty well too. Definitely worth the price considering what bridal boutiques charge nowadays.

Wore this to my daughter's winter wedding last weekend. The fabric is thick enough that I didn't freeze during the outdoor photos but the breathable lining kept me from sweating once we got inside the heated reception hall. I am 5'4 and even with three inch heels the front was dragging just a bit so I had to get it hemmed locally. The trumpet bottom is beautiful but you do have to take slightly smaller steps when walking up stairs. Totally fine once I got used to it. The lace appliques are sewn on really securely and didn't snag on my jewelry at all. For the amount I paid I am honestly blown away by the quality and how expensive it looks in all the professional pictures.

Bought this for our 25th anniversary dinner and the dark navy color is incredibly flattering in person. It looks a tiny bit darker indoors than it did on my phone screen but in a good way. The sizing runs a little snug around the ribcage so if you are between sizes I would definitely suggest going up one. My husband had to help me with the zipper because it gets a little sticky right where the lace meets the satin material. You just have to pull it up slowly. Other than that minor zipper struggle the dress is gorgeous and makes my waist look snatched. The 3/4 sleeves are perfect for hiding my upper arms while still looking elegant. Got so many compliments all night long!
