The photo does not do this dress justice. The top half is flattering and fitted with the lower half being a full skirt. Even better - the skirt has pockets! Great dress! I am looking forward to wearing it during the holiday season.
This is my new favorite dress. I wore the blue version to a fall, evening wedding and it was pretty and flattering, and also super comfortable for dancing. The underlay to the lace on top is a light pink/peach that doesn't stand out.
I usually wear either a 6 or an 8 and I tried on the 8 first -- I thought it looked fine but then when I put on the 6, it fit like a glove and was perfect. So you might want to size down if you're usually between sizes.
