J Kara Women's Plus Size Sleeveless Beaded Pop Over Dress with Scarf - Elegant Summer Casual Dress for Beach, Party & Special Occasions

I used for my Daughter's wedding!!?It was nice didn’t fix meI looked high and low, far and wide, for a dress for my daughter's wedding. I was losing hope. My husband actually went with me to David's Bridal to look for a dress. He zipped and unzipped dresses on me while taking pictures of himself sitting in the dressing room for his facebook friends to admire (him, not me). And then... I found this dress and it is a beauty. Who knew there were so many dress choices on Amazon? I have it hanging in my foyer so that I can admire it daily. I just love the color and the style and the beadwork. The shawl is a nice touch, but I am having the it made into sleeves. Anyways, it's a great dress. Only slight con, I'm 5'5" and it is a few inches too long.It was beautiful dress the bead work was scratching under armsThis was a 16w it ran a bit big for me would definitely need to be taken up. Flattering and very bead-a-ful! It really is gorgeous.I will need to re-order a size down and hem.The beads will be quite scratchy at the upper arms I can tell already.But definitely a beautiful gown!I can't believe this dress has no reviews! I ordered it along with two other dresses via Prime Wardrobe because I need a mother of the groom dress. This was the very first dress I tried on, anywhere, and before I even zipped it, I knew it was THE dress. The color is beautiful, the fit is extremely flattering, and it's the most comfortable evening dress I have ever worn. I honestly barely notice it's on. I was a bit nervous about it being sleeveless, but it looks nice and will be perfect for a September wedding in the South. The beaded bodice is not heavy and it hits at the most flattering point. The wrap is a nice addition. I will have to have it altered under the arms and the waist; it runs true to size but I'm between sizes. The length is fine for me with 2" heels (I'm 5'7"). I have since seen it available at at least one department store, but it was more money there. I never in my wildest dreams expected to find a dress on Amazon, of all places, but never say never.The only criticism I have is how it was packed. It did not come in a box; it came in a plastic mailer bag with the two other dresses. It was on a hanger, even though it was folded to fit in the bag, and one of the corners of the hanger had broken. Fortunately, it did not snag or tear anything. I think that given the style of these dresses (beading, chiffon, etc) and the cost, more care should be taken in packing them for shipment.Ordered 2 different sizes of same dress, through prime wardrobe. Dresses were beautiful, but color not right for me.However, the size 14W did not come with the shawl that the 16w did. I don't want to be penalized for returning the dress with out it. I cannot find anyway to contact them about this, so I am using this forum in the hopes of having it documented. Dresses will go out for return tomorrow.
