Review on PRETTYGARDEN Women'S Summer Maxi Dress Halter Neck Backless Ruffle Smocked Casual Long Flowy Boho Dresses by Jessica Shakman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good fit and flattering, but easily wrinkled and straps sit different than picture

I ordered this dress as a fun summery addition for traveling, but I might need to rethink that because it is super prone to wrinkles. If you're taking this with you, you'll need a steamer. I spent about 10 minutes steaming it to get all the shipping creases out of the dress (see picture - that was as good as I could get it).I am 5'9 and 165 lbs and I got a medium, which fit well. I am on the larger bust size and it looks good. The green color is muted and pretty.My one gripe is that the pictures make the straps look a lot like normal straps and not like a halter, which is what this dress is. You don't really have the option to see the straps lay on your shoulders flat and spaced apart unless you were to connect the straps to the back of the dress somehow. As a halter, this just has a different look, and I wish the pictures showed the back of the dress to see what that looks like.Construction wise, it's not the worst - the stitching wasn't noticeably flawed and it seemed to be even.Overall, I'm happy with it and will wear it, likely with some strappy sandals.
