The colour is exactly as it looked on screen. Such a rich, deep shade that suits my pale complexion to a tee.

Sooo pretty, but the lace appliqués on the sleeves are a bit scratchy if you've got sensitive skin like me 😅 otherwise absolutely stunning!

The satin fabric feels absolutely stunning against the skin. It's got a really subtle sheen that catches the light beautifully without looking cheap or tacky. It drapes beautifully over the hips too.

The fabric is beautiful, but the sleeves were a bit too long on me. I had to drop it into a local alterations place to get them taken up a touch. Having said that, it looks absolutely brilliant now.

I'm always a bit hesitant buying event wear online since you never know if it'll actually suit you or if the sizing will be completely out of whack. I even checked the returns policy twice before buying, just to be safe. Thankfully, I won't be needing to post it back. The dress is absolutely stunning and fits like a glove. It gave me such a massive confidence boost as soon as I zipped it up. It's so great to finally find a dress that makes you feel incredibly special without costing a fortune. The whole shopping experience was a total breeze.
