This dress was a smashing success for me. I got it for a work evening function, and not only was my boyfriend ga-ga over it, but my colleagues just raved about it! The only catch that almost made me wear a different dress is that the dress tended to slide up as I walked, exposing more leg than I ideally wanted. But, that aside, it was lovely and soft and comfortable as other reviewers have noted. Ultimately, this dress got me laid by the end of the night! YEEHAWW!!
