Lovely style dress in a gorgeous shade of red .Slightly more of an orange tomato red than the shade of red in the photo .l went 2 sizes up as wanted the extra room in the bust and i l can easily take in the waist hips etc . I am a tall lady so the extra length is perfect . Personally l prefer the slit sewn up &more of a vintage 40s style This dress woukd look great in black too ! Overall l woukd say if you are looking for length and room in the bust area size up !

DRESS IS LOVELY!!! the split is VERY HIGH which i love but i had to send back. i wear a 40DD bra and i was unable to zip up the dress. ive never worn a 3x so im unsure if my back is just big or its my breast causing me to need a bigger size. it has little to no stretch
