Title: WOW! ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!
Review: This is the PERFECT evening dress! I spent nearly 10 months searching for a pretty, simple and flattering dress to wear to my niece’s wedding. I would never have anticipated that this would present such a challenge! The main problem is that there basically are NO styles suitable and becoming for older women. There appear to be two extremes: either shift or sheath dresses which cling and reveal everything you do not want revealed, or ‘fit and flare’ dresses which have a nice top and waist but crinoline puffy skirts which make any woman look FAT. Then, there are the problems with plunging necklines, slits up the legs, low backs, etc. I am 60 years old. For reference I am 5′ 1″ and weigh 118 lbs. My measurements are 34-28-36. I am about 8 pounds heavier than way back in college. I have always worn a size 6 petite. That is another issue; it is exceedingly difficult to find petite dresses that aren’t designed for women in their 20s and 30s. This dress looks good and feels good. With low heels (2 inches) the hem is the perfect length; another plus. This dress did not require any alterations, AND I purchased it at a bargain price! The jewel neckline is just right and the back comes down in a V, but not too low. It has a nice long zipper and is easy to get on and off, not like some of the other dresses I tried. One, I struggled to get out of for twenty minutes in my bathroom. The bodice is pretty, decorated, just lightly with sequins and the skirt flows nicely with a classic A line hem. It has a chiffon layer over the polyester layer. One reviewer complained that the material was shoddy. But MOST clothes these days are not made from gorgeous, expensive silks, satins, real velvets, etc. That was a generation(s) ago. And, the color is lovely. Originally, I was looking for a burgundy/cranberry red dress which is my favorite color and looks best on me, but the ‘plum’ color is exquisite. One reviewer described it as more like ‘merlot wine’. It’s more purple than wine color. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Title: Just what I was looking for
Review: As an over-50 woman, I was looking for something conservative, with sleeves, and a higher neckline than is shown in stores. All the gowns that I found in the stores were near strapless with TONS of glitter and crystal. Not my style at all. This dress was a godsend. I was SO relieved when I found it. The top is lace with just enough sequins. The lace top is also lined (hiding the bra straps). The 3/4 sleeves covered just enough of my arms. The fabric has some stretch, and it was very comfortable to wear. The skirt is 2 layers so under-slip is not necessary. It was an outdoor wedding in the fall so I did wear some undergarments for warmth, which did not show. If you are looking for a conservative gown that is classy but understated, this is it. Some sources have it in a few other color combinations, but this one (it’s dark teal, not blue), was perfect. I got more compliment than I have ever had.

Title: An Afforfdable, Flattering Dress
Review: Height: 5 ft 4.5 inWeight: 165 lbsSize Ordered: 14Compared to what the bridesmaids and mother-of-the-bride paid for their dresses, my mother-of-the-groom dress was a steal. I received so many compliments on it! The navy was a true navy that matched the wedding party perfectly. I did wear a light body shaper under it to hold in my tummy.My shoes were rhinestone platform sandals that made me about 3 1/2 inches taller and the dress was still a tiny bit long, so either prepare to wear very high heels or have the dress altered.Just FYI, I was sent the completely wrong dress the first time, so order early in case you need to do a return. The return was easy and Amazon got the correct dress to me just a couple of days later!

Title: Pretty Dress but Zipper is defective
Review: I intended to wear this Alex Evenings dress for my son’s wedding. The first time I tried it on, the invisible zipper wouldn’t work without jamming. I was able to get it loose, but I started to get skeptical about relying on it for such an important occasion. The second time I put the dress on was to model it for my daughter. She carefully worked the zipper this time and it still jammed every few inches. Finally we gave up on it in fear it would break, and I managed to sliver out of the dress with the zipper jammed part way down.I had to find a different dress! This is a $200 dress and I couldn’t take the chance! Needless to say, this is disappointing quality and workmanship for such an expensive product. I would just as soon have a regular zipper than an invisible one that doesn’t work.Everything was fine about the dress otherwise: it fit well, material is pretty. But none of that matters if you can’t get in and out!

Title: lovely dress
Review: I bought this gorgeous dress in deep plum to wear to my daughter’s wedding. The fit is flattering and I got a ton of compliments. I’m only 5’1″ and normally wear size 6 or 8 so I chose the try before you buy option. The 8 petite fit perfectly. Needless to say, I am very happy with my purchase!

Review: Ordered for family member. We were concerned about the sizing but as someone else previously mentioned true to size. Just like we get at dept stores in city. A touch long but will get someone to hem a little. I believe she is 5 ft 4 inch and was wearing 2.5 inch heel. Very flattering. Got the navy and also happened to get at half price day of ordering. And got day after ordering. Awesome. Sleeves are comfortable as well, I believe she said there was a bit of stretch in them which it that much more comfortable.

Review: Beautiful colour. The dress is very forgiving and very comfortable. I still had to get it hemmed since I’m 5 ft and wore very low heeled shoes. I wore it to my daughter’s wedding and felt amazing wearing it. I would definitely recommend this dress
