I wore this dress to a charity gala and felt perfectly dressed and super stylish. The long sleeves are a real lifesaver in air-conditioned rooms.

I was worried the long sleeves would make it look frumpy but it’s actually incredibly chic. The V-neck balances it out perfectly.

I wore it to a dinner and the velvet is super soft. The color has a gorgeous shine to it, and absolutely zero static cling.

Wore this to my company holiday dinner and the velvet is actually pretty thick, hiding my tummy well even after eating. Only tiny issue was the zipper got a bit stuck at the waist seam initially but it smoothed out. Super comfortable to sit in all night.

Bought my regular size medium for a winter wedding and the fit is spot on. The sleeves kept me warm enough outside while taking pictures. I was worried the material would cling but the lining is actually really nice against the skin. Definitely worth the price.
