I could not have been happier with this dress. To begin with, the quality and detail of the dress is unexplainable unless you see it first had and compare it to other brands. I fell in love with the pearl and lace details which extend down the side of the dress and into the amazing back. This dress was sexy, yet not too revealing. This dress has a beautiful simplicity yet WOW factor. The material is sturdy and it has built in spanx so it hold everything in place and makes you feel amazing! More than anything it was comfortable!!! I didnt sweat or get itchy or scratchy. You can't even feel the mesh.
The main reason I love this dress was the removable train. If you're like me and don't like how bustles look, this is the dress for you! Not only did I get "two looks", I got to enjoy my cocktail hour instead of spending 30 minute bustling. The dress without the train also has a small train which didnt get in the way of dancing. The removable train is light weight and has a bow on the back, which can easily be altered and taken off if you don't like it.
The dress is size 40 (EUR). I am usually a size 2 or 4 in street wear, 34C, and size 26 jeans. (Aprox 36 bust, 26 waist, 36 hips)
The alterations on this dress were minimal. The dress was shortened (I am 5'4 and wore flat sandals) and the back meah was loose so it was taken in. The dress itself and the mesh have a slight stretch to it, which makes it so comfortable.
I have a million more pictures and can answer any questions you my have. I tried to show all the angles and detail to the best of my ability :)
