I’ve noticed a lack of critical reviews on here so i’m writing this, DO NOT DELETE THIS REVIEW BECAUSE IT ISNT FIVE STARS. LISTEN TO CRITICISM. i’ll start with the positives: this dress is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. it is very flattering and makes me feel confident and beautiful. ordered a size small and the bust area is perfect as a 10F. I don’t need to wear a bra for it as the steel boned corset part actually supports it. If anything it actually has a minimising effect. Okay, now the negatives. it is WAY too hard to get on and off. likely because of the steel boning it is so hard to put on. loosening the corset back was extremely difficult and the side zip doesn’t help as much as it should. it also has the tendency to come undone a bit with movement. the dress is very very stiff. sitting down isn’t very comfortable it forces you to sit up straight which I suppose isn’t bad but you can’t really sit comfortably or move around move. It is also impossible to go to the bathroom. it is not malleable and so i was leaning forward holding the back of the dress up. the steel boning is also very long so even when you’re sitting straight it digs in a bit. Taking the dress off was the worst part. i couldn’t figure out how to by myself and had to get someone to help pull it off me upright. It is so hard to figure out how to put on. do i step i and pull it up? or do i stand straight like a pencil and let it fall down. it is very tight so i was scared to move as i didnt want to damage it. all of this being said once you finally have it on it is GORGEOUS. got so many compliments but yeah.
