Honestly, I was a bit skeptical about the quality given the price, but I was pleasantly surprised. I wore this for my bridal shower because I wanted to wear white but keep it a bit more casual than the big day. The cut is really flattering, especially around the waist. The V-neck sits nicely and doesn't gape open when you move, which is a huge plus. The fabric isn't see-through at all, which was my biggest fear. It’s a great little dress for pre-wedding events or even a rehearsal dinner. Just make sure you check your measurements carefully before ordering.

When I took it out, it just needed a light steam. The long sleeves were perfect for the cooler evening desert air. I paired it with some fun sparkly heels and a short veil.

The movement of the skirt in the wind was incredible, and the satin caught the sunset light perfectly. Sand brushed right off it. I ended up just getting the hem a little wet and saved it because I want to wear it again for an anniversary dinner or something.

I am not really a "dress person," so finding something for my civil ceremony was a nightmare until I found this. It felt comfortable, almost like wearing a nice long shirt but way fancier. I didn't feel stuffed into a corset or weighed down by layers of tulle. The high split is a nice touch that makes it feel a bit younger and cooler. I think the stitching could have been a little neater on the inside hem, but nobody could see that from the outside. It served its purpose perfectly and I felt very much like myself in it.

My only small gripe is that it wrinkles a bit easily if you sit for too long, so definitely bring a steamer if you’re traveling with it. But for the price and the style? You really can't beat it. I felt like a million bucks.
