This dress is pretty and seems well made,  but there are a few reasons why I'm returning it.  For reference,  I ordered the 3x and it was labeled a 24w.  I'm 5'6 and weigh 290lbs.  I wear a 40c bra size.... I should've taken my measurements before buying.

The reasons I'm returning:
1.  The bust was HUGE, and had built in boning, so even when tightened the bust was gaping.
2.  The lace up back is pretty,  but there was a gap that wasn't covered by the blue insert.  It also made it hard to get in and out of the dress without help.
3.  The underskirt fit right at my ankles but the chiffon layer was a little too long.  I imagine this would be ok with heels, but if you're shorter than I am you may need to have it hemmed.
4.  I felt like the pleats didn't lay as flat as they did in the marketing pictures.

All that said, this dress is still really pretty and i could see it fitting someone with a bigger bust much better than it did me.  ETA:  RETURNS WERE SOOOOOO EASY!
