The dress is very pretty, however the description is deceiving. i purchased it not just for the look but because it was listed as "silk" but that is not exactly true. the under-slip is silk but the outer dress, what you see is definitely not. it is a cheap, thin material on top, skirt is stiff,, not loose or flowy as the picture would have you think. i will keep it, very happy i did not pay full price.
