The dress is very pretty and extremely well constructed. The sparkles in the bodice look inexpensive. My main problem is trying to return it. I received the dress as expected but according to the seller and postal service, it was not delivered. I am working with the company to get a prepaid return label because I can’t get it through Amazon site because it says it wasn’t delivered yet. Every email takes 48 hours or more for a response. Still haven’t gotten the label yet. I’m worried about this return working out and getting a refund.I love the color and style. In future will be ordering from here again.I absolutely love this dress.After going to many local bridal shops, I was unable to find something that I liked for my son’s wedding and that looked like a “mother of the groom” dress (not grandmother). I found this dress on Amazon and was hesitant to purchase due to time constraints and sizing. I followed the guidelines for measurements and was in between sizes so I ordered up a size. I did pay extra for expedited shipping to make sure I would have time for a plan B. The dress was very well made and fit me perfectly with a little room to spare. I am 5’10” and the length was perfect to wear with heels. The top had lots of support and boning unlike another dress I purchased. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the lace did not match up on the front or back. The front wasn’t noticeable but I added a picture to show the back. Luckily I knew a seamstress that was able to fix it. I received lots of compliments on the color and style. The color was true royal blue. In the pictures, you can’t see but there is lots of blue and crystal sequins in the bodice that sparkle and shine in the light. Beautiful gown! Just follow the measuring guidelines.I'm 5'2 120lbs. I bought my exact same US size in dresses. A size 2.This was a bridesmaid dress for a wedding. I was one of the 5 bridesmaids. We all bought the same dress all ranging in age and sizes from small to XXL. This dress complimented every single one of us. It looked great in all shapes and sizes.We all had the same opinions. The dress is absolutely gorgeous and simple. The picture does not show the true elegance of this dress. Very pretty. Perfect for prom or cruise line dinner, fancy restauraunt or a wedding.However, all 5 of us bridesmaids had to get the dress length shortened. I had to get 3 inches taken off of my dress. We also all agreed that once we got it hemmed the only issue was the chest piece. It was tight fitting. It's tighter up top and then loose to the floor. I'm glad I bought the size I did because the chest would of been to big in the next size up. The chest WAS tight but nothing unbearable. I wouldnt mind waring the dress again.I purchased the peacock green beautiful color, well made but the measurements were difficult. it's so large. trying to get a standard size was difficult because the bust size and the hip size were hard to match up. the cost of alterations would be very expensive. Had i known that the cost of return would be more then the cost of the dress. I would have given the measurements even though you can't return once that's done. fed ex cost $165.The gown itself is beautiful. It is made well. I didn't know what the "W" stood for, but the gown fit was way to out of proportion for me. The seller would not give me a prepaid return label so it would have cost me over $230.00 to send back.dress does not fit and seller offered full refund.La taille sa va mais le buste trop grand 6 pouce de trop grand
