I bought this dress to wear on a cruise after gaining a "few" pounds and not being able to fit into my other dresses. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the dress, the fit and the "Wow" factor. My husband loved it and loved it even more when I told him the price. (LOL) It looks like I paid much more for it. Very elegant, very nice.

The quality is fantastic, especially for the price! Unfortunately I'm a size larger on the bottom than on the top so this dress doesn't work for me. I'm also 5'4" and it's a little long, but easily alterable by shortening the hem. [...]You could end up with a great dress for that special occassion!

Since I couldn't find a dress anywhere I was very nervous about ordering this dress for an important occassion. The dress was perfect. Although I had to shorten the straps and make a minor adjustment to the fit in the bodice I was extremely happy with the overall fit. It looks more expensive than it is once it is on and it was very flattering. I would highly recommend this dress.

I wore this to my daughter's wedding and couldn't have been happier. It was comfortable and classic looking - not your typical mother-of-the-bride long beaded jacket look (which I'm too short to wear) and it didn't wrinkle. I highly recommend this dress.

I bought this dress to wear to a special birthday dinner. The fit was good and I loved the fact that it was more ivory than white. It has a flattering fit for a full-figured woman.

I wore this dress for at a black-tie event and felt completely comfortable and not out of place (believe me, I was anxious about fitting in). The jacket provided the coverage I needed. The only problem I had was the bust was a little too large for me so I had to get the straps shortened to keep everything in place, so to speak. Otherwise I thought the quality was fairly good and the lining was definitely great. Get some comfortable shoes and you're all set.

I plan to wear this as a Mother-of-the-Bride dress. I have been looking for something for quite awhile. The bridal shops are so expensive. This dress is elegant and a great price. My daughter really liked it on me and, more importantly, I really like it on me!

I was amazed at how well this dress fit! The minute I put it on, I knew it was a "keeper"! I like the fact that the dress looks beautiful with, or without, the jacket.
The white parts of the dress are more of a creamy white, not a pure white. The rhinestone broach adds just enough 'bling' to the dress and draws the eye away from less flattering areas. I can't wait to wear it!

I purchased this to wear on a cruise. Although this is a very pretty dress from a distance, up close the material looks and feels very cheap. As the other reviewer stated, it was longer than it needed to be. The "rhinestones" on the bodice of the gown only further cheapened the effect. The bolero jacket was cute and fit well but overall, I was not happy with this purchase and did feel I could wear it on the cruise without feeling "cheap".
Just beautiful and so affordable!

My only comment about the dress is the material for the bottom of the skirt (black material) seemed a bit thin. It would have been nice to have a little thicker material.

This dress is designed very well, it is a very nice fitting dress. I am short that is why it was to long but when it was taylored to fit the look did not change which some times happens when you shorten a dress. It is very elegant and can be worn to the Prom or on a cruise as I used it. I received many complements and felt very elegant in the dress. Thank you for bringing such a dress to women that are of size and want to look beatiful as well.
