The beading on the bodice is gorgeous in person. However, the navy blue is a shade darker than it looked on my iPad, almost looking black indoors. The zip is also a bit stiff at the waist seam, so my hubby had to help me carefully pull it up. Still wearing it though!

The dress is elegant and the beading is sewn on really well. Got to admit though, it's a bit tight around the thighs when sitting down. I grabbed my usual size, but going up a size might have been better to stay comfy during the reception. Still looks fab, though.

Fits like a glove! The stretchy satin has just enough give to keep you comfy even after tea.

I was a bit iffy on the colour, but in natural light it's stunning, really bright and makes my skin glow. The fabric is breathable, I didn't sweat at all even though I was pretty hyped. The sleeves are just a tiny bit long for me, but no worries.

Absolutely stunning beading. Got heaps of compliments from the family. Highly recommend!
