Illusion-Sleeve Gown
Product details
Web ID: 9885459Pretty dress
Very pretty dress. I have read that sleeves were too right but I figured I have arms on the slender size so I would try. I can say the arms were too tight for me also.
Gorgeous but had to return
This dress is absolutely beautiful and very flattering, but the beautiful gold mesh shoulders have no flexibility and don't give at all. In my case, the sleeves hovered above my shoulder with 1" space between my skin and the dress, and it looked bad. There was nothing I could do about it. It was also difficult to move my shoulders.

Beautiful but sleeves are too tight!
After purchasing 3 different sizes of this dress, I was still unable to find a size that fit my arms, because the cuffs on the sleeves are way too tight. I kept the smallest size dress(6P) because it fit perfectly everywhere else except the sleeves, and I will have to have the sleeves altered so that it fits properly. It's a shame, because the dress is beautiful. Otherwise, I would have rated it a 5 Star item.
Both vintage and modern
This gown is gorgeous and has a lovely vintage look to it. The color is a deep blue and the lace/beads are a silvery gold. Other posters mentioned the arms being tight. I did not have this problem. This dress is meant to be fitted and body conforming. It is part of the dress construction and is what makes it so pretty. There is a slight side bustle which gives a nice drape to the dress. I really like this gown and am wearing it to my daughter's wedding.
Formal elegance
Beautiful dress, but too low cut in the front, I've had a mastectomy and it exposed too much bare chest wall for me to be comfortable at my son's wedding, would likely be perfect with someone who's wearing a prosthesis. Sleeve were a little tight too, no give, otherwise a beautiful dress, Try it, might work for you!
Mother of the wedding
As previous reviews stated .... sleeves are extremely tight. Disappointed because it is a pretty gown. I will be returning it.
Look Good
I get this dress today to wear it in a wedding event next year, I tried it on and I loved it. Not rich fabric but it look awesome.
Beautiful gold at neck. Sleeves too tight.
I wore it to a wedding. The gold trim and sparkle at the neckline make for nice highlights in photos. BUT the gold trim at the sleeves is too tight. Moving your arms above shoulder height is impossible. I had it altered to split the bottom of the sleeves open about two inches. This worked out well. It wasn't noticeable, but allowed me the freedom to dance.
