Review on Make A Statement: Long Mermaid Evening Prom Dresses With Lace Applique By Babyonline® by Ryan Rodriguez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Must have good shapewear!

I am a seamstress, so I am VERY critical when it comes to the quality of a garment's construction. I reason I only gave 3 stars is because both the materials and the construction, while okay, is not great. For example, the hem of the dress is only serged, not rolled; the dress has no lining; the "cups" are very flimsy and provide no support (I wore a bra for the pictures); and lastly the material itself is only a double knit (I was expecting a scuba knit). The embroidery is very pretty and the zipper was well sewn. My measurements are as follows: height- 5'3.75", weight- 160 lbs. roughly ;), bust 41.5", waist 34", hips 42". I ordered a 16 which ended up being too big everywhere, but I bet if I had ordered a size down it would have shown every flaw because the fabric is only one layer.
