I wore this dress to a wedding in London that lasted about 10 hours and it was comfortable the whole time. It was stretchy and the straps are adjustable. There is some boning and structure in the top portion of the dress, which was great because I didn't need to wear a bra and it held me in like a corset. The slit is very sexy and playful and at 5'4", I only needed a small heel to get the dress to be off the floor. I even took my shoes off toward the end of the night and just hiked the dress up a little bit to make dancing easier. My only complaint about this dress is the placement of the tags. There are large white tags on the inside hem of the dress on the side of the slit, so they were visible in many pictures. Not the biggest deal and didn't change my 5-star review, but I thought it was an odd choice and it bothered me a little when I first tried it on. Overall, I had a great time wearing this dress and felt like a fashion model in Europe!

I wore this dress to my brother's wedding and it was absolute perfection! Fit like a glove in my usual size, I didn't even need to try on the backup size. I'm 5'4" and did not need very high heels with this dress, I even switched over to flip flops at the end of the night and the dress was just barely touching the floor. It doesn't have any stretch, so I did have to hike it up slightly in order to sit down, but definitely did not feel trapped in it by any means and was able to eat, dance, and chase my kids around all night long with no issue at all. I did not need a bra and it held me in really nicely. I received so many compliments throughout the entire wedding and felt so elegant and beautiful in this dress! Very well made and the embroidery is just stunning in person. It was better than I could have even imagined... definitely a winner and would 100% wear this again! If you're thinking about this one, just do it, you won't regret it!
