The dress is WAY more sparkly in person. The pictures don't convey the sparkle accurately. If you like sparkle you will love this dress! While it was a size 28 it was very big on me and i had a lot of alterations and took it in a bit. My measurements were 50 x 45 x 51 and my heigh is 5'5. I wore flats with the dress. It's in great condition and was professionally cleaned.
