I bought this dress for a Minnie Mouse costume and it was adorable and a lot of fun! The skirt of this dress is perfect, it hangs beautifully and comes in perfectly at the waist. But the top of this dress is just bizarre. The collar makes no sense at all and the criss cross front was so odd to me. I ended up tucking in the collar and having to fold the front over to make it look normal. I cant say that this was a flattering look on my body, I felt like a giant marshmallow when I put the petticoat on underneath (although it flairs out nicely without one) but I still loved wearing it and thought it was a lot of fun to wear!
