Beautiful but heavy
"I personally would not call this dress casual. I could see wearing it on a nice dinner date but not for a day out shopping. It’s definitely high quality—it’s so pretty but I ordered a medium and think I could have used a small. The smocking was too loose to help hold the dress up and the thin straps were digging into my shoulders because the fabric is on the heavier side. I’m pretty fit but it didn’t do much for my under arm chub. I would try again if I had an occasion to wear it to but decided not to bother because it’s not casual enough for every day wear."
