Elegant Strapless Sweetheart Neckline Sequin Mermaid Evening Dress for Wedding, Prom, and Special Occasions - Perfect for Brides, Bridesmaids, and Formal Events

This dress was stunning!!! As you can see from the pictures it photographed beautifully. You can see the sparkle of the sequin lace, and i loved the look of the white lace with nude lining. The Mermaid fit accentuated all my curves and made me feel beautiful and sexy! Now to get into all the details.Size/fit: I sent in custom measurements and also added custom straps. They made this dress exactly to my measurements and it fit like a glove. I think having the corset back definitely helped too, but they did an amazing job, and I was very impressed with how closely they followed my measurements. It was a little tight in my thighs because I have very curvy legs, so I would recommend having a little extra room here so you can move around easier. The corset back takes care of cinching everything up top to a perfect fit, but it does not go low enough to the thighs, so just make sure you have enough room there since this is a Mermaid style dress.Alterations: Since I sent in customizations, I only needed minimal alterations done. Slight hem on the front and sides. Since I added custom straps, the lace wasn't as planned out as the rest of the dress, so I had my seamstress adjust some of the lace and have a tighter fit to the straps.Quality: The material and craftsmanship was top notch. Everything was made accurately to the pictures and it looked amazing.Material: The under layer was a nude/beige silk like material that was very comfortable. The top layer was a thin netting type material with the sequin lace on top of it. The sequins are my one major complaint as they weren't comfortable under my arms. I was especially worried when I first tried it on on my own because it was very scratchy under my arms. But once I tried it on with my mom who tied up the corset back for me and it fit properly, the sequins were tolerable. I wore the dress for the ceremony and pictures, and then changed into a more comfortable dress for dinner. We eloped on a mountaintop, so I spent about 4 hours in the dress for the ceremony and pictures, and then just had a small dinner with only our parents, so it wasn't a big reception. If we did a big reception I probably would have stayed in the dress longer just because it was so beautiful! The sequins didn't bother me as much on the day of, because there's so much going on, it's really the last thing on your mind.Shipping: I paid for rush shipping because I ordered it 3 weeks before the wedding and it arrived in just over a week. It was so fast and gave me enough time to get the minor alterations I needed done. I was super nervous about getting it in time, but they assured me I would have it in time and they exceeded my expectations.Customer Service: The customer service was fantastic. They were extremely responsive and answered my many questions about customization and shipping. They really went above and beyond and made me feel very comfortable ordering from them. A+ on customer service, it was very much appreciated for such an important purchase!Price: I paid $218 for the dress including customization and rush shipping. This is so insanely affordable for a wedding dress, and I can't believe the quality, fit, customer service, speed, and absolutely gorgeous dress that I got for that price! Nothing can beat this!! I received so many compliments and no one believed me it was from Amazon. They thought I spent so much more. Incredible bang for your buck.Overall, this dress is absolutely amazing and it's everything I was looking for. You can't find another dress with this look for this price and getting it so quickly. I can't wait to wear it again once covid is over and we get to have a reception with our family and friends!!
