This was my backup dress for an event I was attending and thankfully I bought it along with my first choice!  It fits very well, it was just a tad loose in the bust area but it fit really well everywhere else.  I got compliments all day long which made my long day much more fun.  Didn't want to change out of it when the day was over.  It is very well made, the fabric is a little stiff which was good to me so it would keep that fun flare altho I did wear a petticoat underneath so there was a peek-a-boo of lace.  And like other buyers, I'll probably get a couple more in different patterns.
