I dressed it up for a casual pinupy cosplay costume and it is everything I dreamed of. Petticoat, wide belt, big necklace and I'm in love. I also ironed a foil star to the bust...which was terrifying because the tag pretty much says don't do anything to it, but it didn't melt or combust or anything. It also comes super wrinkled which is scary because of the strict tag....but I think if you are extremely careful with it, low heat or no heat, it should be fine. I should also say that I was looking for a mustard yellow...but like a French's yellow, and regardless of what the photo showed, I kept getting Guldan's spicy brown. This is definitely a French's shade and it is perfect for me. I followed their size chart and it fits great. There is a weird baggy spot on the back of the neck, I might take in with a few hand stitches or some iron hem tape, it's not really a big deal. I love it.
