I just received this dress and it is beautiful. I am a 6 and ordered a 6 and it fit perfectly. It's shiner than I expected but it adds to the look. I think this would be a great holiday dress. I think it hides any flaws one may have because of all the layers but doesn't look bulky. Overall strong recommend.

I wore this particular dress for a wedding. It looks just as you see it on the website, unlike some other dresses. The material was very comfortable to be in and also to dance in. The dress was a snug fit and flatters your figure nicely without being skin tight. I am 5'3 and the dress came to just above the knee.
