I noticed this dress while shopping with my mom the other day. However, I was sad when the store didn't have my size. So, when I got home I looked online and saw my dress was available in my size. I quickly ordered it and when the dress arrived I tried it on. The dress had a little extra room which will be great for events that require a lot of eating like receptions, dinner parties, etc. Also, the champagne color was a little darker in person which I liked - but I still wouldn't consider it a gold color. Anyway, I love the dress and will be keeping it!
I like dresses that use panneling to create curves and minimize flaws. The champagne inset is is a soft satin, but slightly darker in person than online. The dress is really comfortable, and perfect for long days at work, or transitioning to evenings out. I tried on my typical Limited size, and the fit was as expected. This is a really great multipurpose dress, and can easily be transitioned into spring, and summer evening events.

Fantastic fit - very elegant
I wore this dress to a company Christmas party and it was perfect! Runs very true to size and is very flattering. Love this dress!
Purchased this dress for an upcoming work holiday party. It's the best looking dress I own. I wear a size 6 and the side black panels make me look baout 2 sizes smaller. Gives the wearer an amazing hourglass figure. Fabric is wonderful (not to thick, not see-thru, a small amount of sheen) Can be paired with a blazer and black tights for colder days. Every girl should have this dress!

Perfect fit
I love this dress! I bought this dress to get away for the LBD for an event. It was the best decision, it has a great fit. It accentuates the waist and falls just right at the hips.
Great dress, nice fit. Bought to wear to an evening work event. Conservative enough for work but not so conservative to be totally boring. Little bit of shine for the holiday season.

Good Fit & Feel
The fabric quality and feel is good - it's one of the more comfortable dresses I own. The fit works well for a slender frame.

Amazing Shape
The picture online does not do the dress justice. The color blocking looks amazing on someone with curves. I bought an 8 and am only 5 '4''. The dress makes me look taller and leaner. It can easily transition from evening to work with a black blazer.

Love this dress!
I love this dress! The fit is great and the color is right on! I did have to have some alterations. I am 5'1 and this dress hit me below the knee. Took it to a tailor and had it shortened to a couple inches above the knee and it is perfect!
I thought that the pattern and shape of the dress would accentuate my body, but it just didn't work at all. The piece looks very awkward once on. Be warned that if you don't have a flat tummy, the perl satin material will show off that belly.

Disappointing material, so-so fit
This dress was only so-so. I ordered it for a wedding shower and was disappointed when I opened the box. The dress looks quite different in person, much more of a dark gold than the light champagne color in the online photo. I wasn't thrilled with the fit, either. The darts on the bust aren't straight, so they look somewhat inverted and draw negative attention to your bust. The material wasn't the smooth, pseudo satin I was expecting, but more of a thick poly-knit that held onto wrinkles. I am returning the dress because, even though it was a fair price (with a coupon) it just didn't look how I had hoped in person.

Saw this dress at a local store and fell in love with it after trying it on! The tailoring and the fit is just perfect and the dress hits right above the knee making it quite elegant. You can pair it with a cute cardigan for work or with some sexy heels for a night out. The gold is more champagne in color in real life. I personally liked it more in person than in the picture, but that's cause I love the color champagne!
