If I could give a zero, I would. If you need a dress for an important event, stay away from this disreputable company. My daughter followed the advice of the size chart and ordered her dress in the recommended size. It is too big! Due to the poor quality of the material and the particular design of the bodice of the dress, I do not think alterations will be successful. Even if so, the alterations will be significant. I would rather pay for quality, not alterations. Upon requesting an exchange, the company lied about the availability of the size I needed. Moreover, the company lied about sending a pair of earrings with the purchase. No such earrings were received. Read the BBB complaints. Read the many other negative complaints on this site. Also, please note that many disreputable Internet companies post fake positive reviews. Save your time and money and find a reputable seller of dresses for your special occasion.
