I got this for a cruise formal night. It packed surprisingly well and didn't need too much ironing after hanging up in the shower steam. The mermaid flare starts at a good spot so walking isn't difficult. It’s a classic style that I think I’ll be able to wear for years.

I felt like a movie star walking into my cousin's wedding reception. The satin fabric is surprisingly heavy and smooth, which makes it hang perfectly without bunching up. I was worried the off-the-shoulder part would keep slipping, but it stayed in place all night while I was dancing. Definitely worth the buy.

I bought this for a charity dinner and it was a hit. The pleated details really help hide the tummy area, which I appreciate. The color is exactly as shown on the website. It’s comfortable enough to sit in for a three-course meal, which isn’t always the case with evening gowns!

I was skeptical about buying a formal gown online, but this one actually looks like the photos. The mermaid cut is super flattering on my curves. It’s a bit snug around the hips, so maybe size up if you want more room to move, but honestly, it makes your silhouette look amazing.

I’m a bridesmaid and we all ordered these. Surprisingly, it looked good on all our different body types. The ruffle detail is my favorite part because it adds movement when you walk. Just be aware that it arrives pretty wrinkled, so give yourself time to prep it before the big day.
