It will work for its intended purpose.  It does have adjustable straps, which are not represented in the advertiser's pictures (except on the other colors) or mentioned anywhere in the ad.  Thankfully, I saw another buyer's pictures and read recent reviews that mentioned the adjustable straps that I wanted.  I can only guess that the ones stating theirs did not have adjustable straps received an older/different version.  The metal straps appear to be coated brass, so they should be just fine and not rust.  They seem sturdy and durable.  The way the tag is sewn in the back will prevent me from being able to wear this with the straight neckline in front.  The tag is black and heavily sewn in so it would show if left in and any attempts to remove it would leave noticeable damage.  The fit: Because of my build, I am use to having difficulty with one piece garments. I'm 5'6" and weigh 170lbs. I'm top heavy in that I wear size 12 jeans but a 38 DD or E bra so I usually need a 16 or 18 top.  Going by this garment's size chart, I ordered the XXL and it was still a bit snug.  The lay flat measurement of mine was 39 inches at the chest and 33 inches in length from the center of the V to the hem.  With the straps set at a modest height, it hits me right in the middle of my knees and doesn't feel like it will creep or cling.  I was curious how the material of this garment would feel and appear.  Was it going to be cotton-like matte or slinky satin?  Well, a bit of both but it's not actually cotton and it's definitely not a satin feel or appearance either.  Viscose is hard to describe but imagine cotton and silk had a baby.  It definitely leans more toward a super soft cotton feel with just a hint of a sheen to it and has a fair amount of stretch.  It's quite light weight, great for summer dresses so I can't imagine it making anything you wear any hotter.  I also have a sweater dress that this will be perfect for wearing under when the weather gets colder.
