This dress is beautifully made and I just loved the idea, but in actual usage the front cage strap area flipped up and soon as I moved my arms.  I also would call the color more of a dull lavender, not a true gray.  There were some marks from packaging that I was concerned would not come out (and you cant get it wet, so steaming is out) and I was afraid to iron, so I sent it back.  I wish it had worked out for me!!
