I really, really wanted to love this dress! Instead, it would be a stretch to say that I even like it. I received my dress today and the packaging was dirty, but it was wrapped tightly in plastic so i thought it would be OK. I opened the box and the dress was inside out and i thought, this dress is gonna look great! The packaging including a carrying bag, zippered dress bag, and a drawstring bag along with a nice pic of the dress. I looked at the fabric once turned right side out, and it looked dingy but I didn't let that stop me. I tried the dress on and there appeared to be spots missing ruffles. The spots where they sewed "flowers", i could easily see the haphazard threading that was barely holding the flowers on. The ruffle details on the bodice was far too wide and gave a swelled chest appearance. The overall appearance of the dress on was one of overwhelming ruffles instead of a funky modern look for a reception dress. I would actually rather wear the dress inside out than the other way around. It looks like they bought a premade straight dress and just hurried up and smacked anything on it and sent it out at the last minute. My order was confirmed by February 6 and I received it today, April 3rd! Far too long of a wait for the level of poor quality! There is no way to salvage this dress without removing all of the ruffles off the premade shell and starting over! That would cost way more than I payed for it so I just want my money back. I did not come with tags on it and I hope they don't use that not to give me my full refund! I would give it a zero but I can't! They wouldn't post my review on the website because it would skew the ratings! After I submitted it, it didn't post. My guest is that they screen the reviews and only post great reviews (which I don't know how they got)!
