I was worried the pencil dress style would be uncomfortable for sitting down during dinner. However, the material has a bit of give and isn't tight around the hips. The only slight downside is that the off-the-shoulder design restricts movement a bit when raising your arms to dance, but for the price, it's an absolute bargain.

Bought this for my son's wedding and was super nervous about the fit. The matte satin has a lovely heavy drape that doesn't cling to my tummy, which was a massive relief! The zip is a bit stiff at the thickest seam near the waist, so you have to pull it gently. Otherwise, it looked absolutely stunning in the evening light.

The inner lining is incredibly soft against the skin. A really lovely surprise considering how much it costs!

Quick delivery and the material hangs beautifully. A little thread was loose by the zip, but easily snipped off. Brilliant value for money!

The box turned up completely crushed and I panicked, but the dress inside was absolutely fine. I had it dry cleaned after the event and it kept its shape perfectly without losing any of that matte finish. The off-the-shoulder neckline stayed put better than I expected, though I did have to adjust it a couple of times.
