I really wanted to like this dress. it is beautiful and appears to be well made. Only problem: when my daughter put it on and sat on our cream sofa, the red color of the dress got onto the fabric of the sofa! The rubbing alcohol mostly got it out, but now there's a faded pink stain on my couch's ottoman. I think the only way to avoid this is to soak the dress in water to remove the excess paint. Very disappointed and too late to return.
