This dress is soooo flattering - especially if you have a nice tan. It is fancy enough for a wedding, but comfortable enough to wear to something less formal. You can dress it up or down. It even looks good on a 63 year old, 5'5" 170 lb mother of two and that's saying something! The fabric has just enough heft to hang properly and flow nicely. And the pattern is big enough and different enough to be eye catching without being too bold. The darts on the chest stick out ever so slightly, but nothing major. I'm hoping a little ironing will fix that. The belt is pleasant and matches well with the dress, but it is not high end or substantial. (But, the belt is not flimsy either.) The dress fabric is 97% cotton with 3% spandex so it has a tiny little bit of give in the bodice which is lined with the same fabric as the dress. I believe it is double hemmed which is why the dress hangs and flows so beautifully. The trick with this dress is the top. I'm usually a size 16 due to my curvaceous hips. Yet, I fit into a size 12 with this dress and I haven't fit into a 12 for over 30 years! As a 40B I fill out the top pretty well, though I find it a tad snug in the waist. I tried the size 14, but the top of the dress looked like a loose sack on me and the shoulders kept falling down. If your big busted, go with your regular size, but if you are "average" in bust size, consider sizing down. This is a really beautiful and flattering dress that works for young and old alike. I can't wait to see how it performs on the dance floor. I see a lot of spinning on the dance floor in my future with this dress.

Nothing like on picture
First of all, it came in damaged box that was traveling around the world. Secondly, the dress top has the same pattern as bottom that makes the dress look like just average regular summer dress. So, don’t trust the picture. The lastly, the most amusing part, is that they didn’t bother to include the belt. From positive perspective, the fabric and how it fits even for XL size item is not bad, but certainly far from enough for the price.
Unexpected disappointment
This is not so much about the dress, but the horrible way the dress was packaged by Macy's. It was a birthday gift for my mother. When she opened the package, she discovered the dress was not neatly folded. Instead, someone, presumably a Macy's employee, had balled up the dress into the package. Also, the dress was missing the belt. We were shocked about how Macy's found this an acceptable thing to do for a customer. The dress, which again was sent without the belt, was returned immediately, and my mother decided she didn't want a replacement from Macys. We were extremely disappointed with the purchase and experience. I will not purchase from Macys in the future.
