I have a stocky curvy body type in a pear shape, so it's hard for me to find something that fits perfectly without needing alterations.This dress is the epitome of a made-for-me fit. Material isn't the best quality but I wasn't expecting it to be for the cost. Fabric has the perfect amount of stretch to it. Perfectly frames a small chest, too!I really liked this dress. It was good quality, not high quality but good. I did end up returning it because it didn't fit. If I could have gotten it to fit, I would have kept it. I just didn't have time tor order a different size.The color of the dress is very niceThe dress is cute and fits as expected. The fabric doesn't feel high quality, however, for the price it is a good find.Fits as expectedThis dress was perfect for my daughter to wear to Homecoming. We loved the length. She looked Gorgeous in this dress!I was reluctant on sending this back, but I didn't. I wore to a graduation and was not in discomfort. The neck part did bother me a bit, but I found if I lifted my dress a bit before I sat down, then there wasn't so much strain around my neck, or under arms. This dress ended up being more flattering than the photos with the floral details. I bought an XL. My chest is a 36B, I wear L/XL pants, and am 5'9.I really like this dress but due to the stretchy material it fits "somewhat large", no doubt due to the extremely stretch, spandex like material. Don't get me wrong it's a beautiful dress, I just wished I purchased a dress size smaller so the fit was more precise and fitted. Still, it won't stop me from wearing and enjoying the dress as the fit is not noticeably big to anyone but the person wearing the dress - it does not look sloppy by no means.The dress straps are partially spaghetti strap on the top about an inch more or less than the dresses' net overlay material starts. It gives the dress a slinky, Romanesque feel. Very classy and flattering.The dress has both a "halter" top string tie and a zipper enclosure in the back. Due to the stretch material, there is no difficulty reaching the zipper to close it if you have short arms like I do. The "halter" top string tie is very long but since I am small chested I don't need much string to tie, however, I imagine if you are bigger chested you would need more tie so there you go...The dresses' overlay material is a flowery rose net like material. Under the overlay is a nude colored slip of sorts. Really flattering and if you are small chested like me you could get away with no bra as the nude colored slip camouflaged the absence of a bra. Without the bra, the dress is more natural looking without unsightly bra lines as is common with slink material of this sort that fits the person like a glove. If you have the need to wear a bra, I recommend strapless so you do not see the bra at the dresses spaghetti straps.The dress has a swatch of black silky solid material to define the waist line. Also, there is a flattering slit in the front of the dress where your chest is that seems to nearly touch the defined dress waist line but it is an illusion because the slit actually ends and the material ribbing continues to connect to the waist line so it looks like one continuous flow or piece. Furthermore, since the material is a stretch material there is limited room to camouflage any bulging at the waist line.Overall, I really liked this dress. It reminded me miniscule of one of the dresses worn by actress Dakota Johnson in the Fifty Shades Darker movie, I believe. The tie drawstring in the back of the dress...the silky, svelte like clean lines fit...romanesque elegance and style...Just my humble opinion...HOW I WASHED-I washed the dress in a standard washing machine under gentle, delicate cycle - I did not use the dryer but hung to dry on a hanger and it dried quickly within hours. No noticeable wrinkles as the dress seems to be mostly wrinkle resistant material, if there are wrinkles than they are pretty miniscule...if an iron is needed it will be based on a customer by customer preference, I guess...
