Finally a dress that doesn’t need a slip underneath—the thicker material hangs beautifully and the double ruffle mesh adds just enough movement without feeling flimsy. I wore it to a dinner and got asked if it was designer, which says a lot for the price.

The ruffle mesh layers give it this soft, feminine movement that photographs beautifully, and I love that the thicker fabric means I don’t have to worry about it clinging or showing through. It’s become my go-to for dinners where I want to feel put-together without fussing with my outfit all night.

The double-layer mesh is thicker than most dresses at this price, so I never worried about it feeling flimsy or see-through. Wore it to a dinner and the ruffles moved nicely without adding bulk. Exactly the polished look I was after.
