STEP-BY-STEP: HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF
The dress is amazing! But I didn’t give a 5* simply because the packaging was terrible. I paid £245.00 for an elegant evening dress that came in a plastic bag! Very disappointed as the dress is so glamorous, the packaging made me feel like I bought it from the market rather than somewhere classy
