This dress was PERFECT! It felt so vogue. I don't consider myself particularly fashionable or "built" for clothing this chic (curvy, small boobs, not very tall), but I have never felt this gorgeous or confident. It moved gracefully with me and was the #1 compliment given at my wedding.
The sleeves hang beautifully like pleated drapes.. this is not a cape. The sleeves are light and move well with you. The dress has been professionally cleaned and looks brand new except for a small faint mark which is pictured at the sleeve/armpit area. It could be spot cleaned professionally a 2nd time or possibly bleached. It's a faint concealer mark from someone hugging me, I think. See the video of how well this dress moves... I was able to dance with spins and dips without issue. It has been stored in a dress bag, smoke free home, with a small hypoallergenic pet.

Alterations

It was altered to fit me especially around the torso and hips
It was hemmed for the sleeves to meet the bottom of the dress (versus dragging on the floor)
I wore 2.5" heels and am 5'4" (without shoes)
I still have the extra fabric that was removed if needed
I typically wear a size 34B bra, small or medium top with a slightly shorter torso, and size 8 pants
