Belle House Women's Long Beaded Prom Dress Halter Homecoming Dress Backless BlackThe size 4 dress fit pretty closely to what I thought it would, other than length. I measure 32" (bust), 26" (waist), 37" (hips). It wasn't too tight or too loose once I adjusted the length of the straps.The good:The dress is very nice and I received quite a few compliments. The price was reasonable for the quality of the dress. It was perfect for the masquerade ball I attended. I have a small bust, so it was difficult finding a dress that looked good on my frame. I was able to wear this dress comfortably with no bra, and not worry about any wardrobe malfunctions. I felt elegant and pretty wearing it, and after it is altered, I will definitely be wearing it again.The not-so-good (but fixable!):It definitely needs to be hemmed quite a bit, although I did not have enough time to get it altered before the event I bought it for. I am 5'5, wore kitten heel shoes, and I had to gather up the entire two layers of dress each time I wanted to walk at all. It's quite heavy, and the tiny eye/hook is not quite enough to hold up the dress. The straps were a little too long for me. I had to tie the straps in a knot to get the dress bust up to the right height, and ended up cutting sequins off the straps to untie the knot and get the dress off at the end of the night. The straps are also made of the same chiffon-type material as the rest of the outer shell of the dress. They caused quite a bit of chaffing near my neck/collarbones because they were so thin and rough. I believe the straps can be altered as well, so this shouldn't be an issue next time I wear it.Bottom line:If you have a good seamstress, or you're a little taller, this is a great dress. I'm pleased with my purchase.

So disappointed. Returning has been a hassle. They offered to give me a partial refund and keep the dress. That doesnât fit, has loose beading and the hem stitching is awful. What exactly will I do With this?? Why would I want to eat part of the cost when they sent me a useless product????
Beautifully Made

I am 5'7 and a 1/2, weigh 120 and the size 4 was to small for me to even zip. I returned and got the size 6 and the waist fits but the chest was way to big. Loved the dress and it was made very well for the price. Would recommend for juniors not adult women.
Good for price

My daughter is around 5'6" and around 140 pounds. We ordered for a school dance. For tall girls, it's a little short. The bust is a little big and the neck clasp is very large but easily adjustable, which will make the bust not look so large. We ordered a size 6.
Great dress.

The dress fit great, had to have the neck altered a bit as it was to loose, but a simple fix. Daughter loved the dress.
As pretty as pictures

Followed the size chart. Fit like a glove exemption of the neck. Just had to move the clasp but well worth the money.

This dress was no where the length shown in the description. The neck piece was to weak to hold up the bodess so I had to have adjustments made. Beautiful dress but not worth having the Xtra money spent on having it rush ordered .
