The straps in the photos appear adjustable but aren’t, simply little metal details that move. Had the straps been adjustable it would have been possible to fix them sagging as too loose for the bodysuit.
Perfect transition dress for fall/ spring. Thick material, snug on body in flattering way.And I will consider adding a pair of pantyhose as a match when the weather gets colder. I suggest everyone can do the same, and the effect will definitely be good!!!!
This product fits very well doesn't fold or bunch at the chest near the arm openings like so many shirts and dresses do now days from poor pattern cut and formulation. Being a sketchy knit it gives with you but isn't scratchy and the , but it's comfortable enough you can wear it around town to do errands and be comfortable and not dressed, just a little extra pretty that day.
It is beautiful, very shiny and the truth is if it is quite wide, I usually use L and I asked for M and even so it is too big especially the upper part. I can still use it but it doesn't fit as I would have liked! But it's pretty
Delivered as promised. Great dress. Very sexy...which is exactly what I was going after. Will buy again in the black. Love it. I'm 5'3", 114 lbs. I got the small and it was perfect.
Looks like the same photo as the seller. Its beautiful. Compared to the price, the quality is also quite good. I am also very satisfied with the delivery here. Super fast!
Be sure to buy this jacket, it's really worth it. The quality of the clothes is the best I've ever bought, and at this price, the delivery speed is very fast, so you won't have to wait long. Finally, the service provided by the merchant is really good
