Promising review: "Wow, this dress is lovely! I am attending a wedding soon and shopped all over town to find a nice dress. I purchased two from a local retailer (to the tune of $400), but bought this one on a whim. It came in, I tried it on, and loved it! The fabric is lovely and the wrinkles from the packaging are steamed out easily. It is low-cut, but not too low where I'll feel self conscious." —Elody K.

Promising review: "Such a cute dress! I ordered a small (I'm usually a two-ish in dress sizes) and it fit perfectly. The back waistline has a sort of elastic material so it can very easily fit slightly more petite girls or those who would wear usually wear a medium. I also love that you can tie the back, which makes the sizing even more flexible!" —Penny Yang

I haven't had much luck ordering dresses lately, and I had been searching for a cute LBD to wear to a Mardi Gras-themed party with no luck UNTIL THIS DRESS! I went up a size and it fit amazingly.
