Beauty-EmilyWomen's Shinny Sequin Mermaid Evening Dress Sleeve Prom Gown

I'm so impressed with this dress!I was invited to a black-tie gala for a client at the last minute, and only had a few days to find something to wear. With not wanting to spend more than $100, and needing something with overnight delivery (so I had time for a frantic shopping trip if nothing from Amazon worked), AND being on the edge of plus-size (usually around ladies sz 18 / xxl in dresses) I didn't have a lot of options to pick from, or hope that any of them would look good on me.This dress exceeded my expectations in every way! The fabric has a good weight to it, and just the right amount of stretch. I don't think a single sequin fell off all night, AND they didn't snag on or stick too each other, which is frequently a problem with sequined items. But the best part was how well it fit me!! I'm an apple-shaped woman, if you take my bust measurement as my true size, proportionally my waist is large and my hips are small, so lots of dresses that look great on a woman of my weight who is a pear-shape look frumpy and awful on me. But this dress was perfect! It was high-waisted enough that it sat just a few inches under my bust which is my smallest part, and the vertical lines & slight mermaid shaping helped give me the illustion of a waist & hips.I felt confident and beautiful, and I got many compliments on the dress from random strangers all night! Fantastic boost to my self-esteem!I'm not short (5'-6", and short-waisted so my legs are long for my height) and I did have to hem the outer sequin layer up about 1.5" to not drag on the ground, even in heels (I have my heels off in the photo). The lining was the perfect length. I like sewing so not a problem for me, just be aware if you are not tall that you will likely need to hem it.The only thing that surprised me was the color. In the photo it looks like the sequin stripes are navy blue and silver. The navy is accurate, but the other is not silver AT ALL - it's a color-shifting goldish-reddish color. Still very pretty, but NONE of my silver or rhinestone jewelry worked with it, which was unexpected.Overall, I would highly recommend this dress! The quality & fit are amazing for the price point!

Beautiful dress, very reasonable price. Received many compliments on it. For reference, I am about 185lbs, about 5'6, 36DD, and definitely abdominal bulge. Dress fit great. It was a little too long, even with a 3.5 inch hee, it needed to be hemmed about 1.5 inches. The sequins occasionally caught on each other but not a big deal. I do not have an hour glass figure, but the way this dress is made, somehow it gave me the hour glass appearance which I loved. I highly recommend this dress.

Let's start with the amount of compliments I received. It was fabulous!The dress is glamorous and exceeded my expectations. The material has a stretch with good lining.The neckline is very low, but you can stitch it up and still have a decent cleavage. It's snug but breathable due to the stretch. I ordered a medium in green (my measurements: are 5'7/38C/35 waist). Fit was perfect, but I recommend wearing heels, just so the dress does not drag and get damaged. I was never a really fan of sequin until I wore this dress. You can get it for any celebratory event.

Ordered Size medium, I am 5’4, 158lbs. Fits like a glove, stretchy material. The length of the arms are exact, the beading is not falling apart. I have 110cm on hips, 90 cm on waist, 56cm from shoulder to wrist. Overall length is good with a 2” heel without stepping on the dress. Its not itchy. I will wear western boots because I want to dance all night.

I have a very curvy shape. This dress was not favorable for my heavy chest. The sleeves were odd. Overall, I would not consider again.

Pretty dress, but it’s way too long. My seamstress wants to charge more than I paid for it just to hem it. Returned it for another dress.

Must say the dress was soooo nice...alot nicer then I expected it to be....a little to long for me and im 5'5 but if thats my only complaint I am fine with that

I loved this dress and received several compliments! The dress fabric was stretchy and sturdy, I was nervous the sequence would snag or unravel, but it held up perfectly even with a night of dancing. I did have a couple tact’s put in to close the front cleavage, but no alterations on length were needed once I had high heels on. The sleeves were beautiful and nice coverage.
