This is an okay dress.  I loved the reviews and pictures from other people, but when it arrived I could already tell it wasn't going to be for me.  I used the size chart and bought a size up and it was still too tight.  Also, the material almost feels plastic-y.  It's very synthetic and weird feeling, scratchy kinda.  Like outdoor pillows feel, if you've experienced those.  I bought it to wear to a wedding in a hot climate but there's no way I would - total heat trap IMO, and that's not to speak of the fit.  I wish it had a different fabric because I do like the style.  The search continues!
