Photo misleading but good dress. Oct 26, 2010
By MollyC The photo for this item is a little misleading. The front/bust area does not look like that. They have to have pinned back the cleavage area. There is a lot more fabric on the dress than shown. You can easily adjust dress to show that much cleavage but on its own it does not. It isn't quite that low cut either. This isn't the worst thing though as the dress can be worn a little more modestly than in the photo, which is good for business parties and other functions where you don't want to show quite so much. There is a lot of fabric around the bust so you can then pin your adjust it to show more if you want to.
Other than that I love the dress. The material is fine. Very soft and not cheap feeling. It is a sheer kind of clingy thing but the front is made so that it is flattering to plus size body types. I am a size 22 and it looks fine on me, very flattering. You probably want a short slip to go with it. The skirt on me is shorter, probably an inch or two above the knees and I am 5'7 ish. I haven't worn it yet but I tried it on and was pleased.

Meh . . . so-so dress Jul 27, 2010
By Deanna in Cali

This is dress is okay - not great, not terribble. The material reminds me of a Halloween costume [it's a polyesther-spandex blend]. The open space in the front looks MUCH wider/sexier/better propotioned in the pictures (some of the fabric must be pinned back on the mannequin in the picture). In actuality, the 'V' section is fairly narrow and looks like someone just forgot to button a button or two.
If you just need something plain to wear to a dinner out that you could dress up with some decent jewlery, this item would suffice.
A note about the fit: These sizes are NOT true, WOMEN'S 1X, 2X, 3X sizes - they are JUNIOR/MISSES "plus sizes", like you'd find at those trendy, tenny-bopper, cheap stores you'd find in any mall. In other words, these aren't Lane Bryant sizes. To give you some perspective, I'm 30 years old, 5' 8", 220 lbs., pear-shaped and wear a 14 to 16 in dresses (depending on the brand). I ordered a 1X and it fit okay, but it's just not flattering so I'm returning it. If you go by the size measurements provided by the manufacturer [NOT by Amazon's size chart], you should be able to accurately choose the right size.

good dress but smaller sizes than anticipated Oct 28, 2010
By Miss chic

I like the fact that it's not as low cut as the picture, so you can wear it with a normal bra, and use it for all sorts of occasions, it suits bigger woman since the shape flatters our curves, but I am normally an american XL or 1XL and I can just wear the 4 x so I recommend people to buy bigger sizes than normally.

Perfect little black dress Aug 13, 2009
By J. Rama Wanted this for a versatile dress, suitable for many occasions, and that is exactly what it is. Super sexy, yet comfortable beyond belief, and extraordinarily wrinkle resistant!! Fabulous for dinner parties, a day at the fair, business meeting, or relaxing on a summer day, it is perfect for travel and all-around wear. I have received many compliments. It has become one of my favorites. Sizing is just as expected, quality of material and construction is excellent.

Little Black Sexy Dress Dec 03, 2008
By DarkMuse
"book editor"
I haven't worn this one yet, but I have tried it on. It fits perfectly and looks gorgeous on me. Even though it is low cut, you can adjust the material so it closes more and covers more up if you want. The material is so soft and silky it could be worn for a sexy date night, to a formal wedding, or even a Christmas party (as I intended it for). I especially like the closed back so that the low cut front doesn't look slutty, but sexy and sophisticated. Looks even better with knee or calf high boots!
