Donna Karan Women's One-Shoulder Bow Gown

I ordered this dress for a black tie wedding and held my breath that I would love it on me as much as I loved it on the model. I ordered a size 10 and 12. When the dresses arrived, I tried them and the 12 was right for me; I am 5’ 3” 180lbs. I returned the size 10 and took the size 12 to a professional tailor to have the length shortened. I also wanted cups sewn in so I wouldn’t have to wear a strapless bra but the cups didn’t work due to the asymmetry of the one shoulder. Without a strapless bra, my chest appeared oddly lopsided. The tailor explained how many times, that happens with that neckline. By the end of the night, the strapless bra was rather uncomfortable but I felt beautiful in this classy dress and was pleased with it. The A-line fit was perfect to flatter my figure which has become very unfit especially at this season of my life. Expect to take it to a professional tailor for alterations, specifically the length, unless you are tall. Also it can be professionally pressed
Beautiful dress, but DON'T DO IT
It is a beautiful dress, no doubt. It fits wonderfully. Unfortunately though, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get the wrinkles out. I brought the dress to my dry cleaner today to see if there is anything she can do to remove the wrinkles. She offered to try but would not guarantee anything. The fabric, she said, is prone to wrinkling. Even if I could steam it wrinkle-free, the dress would be a mess as soon as I sat down - or even walked. I cannot wear it to my son's wedding because it will look horrible in pictures, cannot return it because the return window is closed (I wanted to buy a dress with time to spare), and will not give it away to burden someone else with it. It hangs in my closet, tags on, a wrinkly mess.
a true gala dress
Needed a dress for a formal black tie wedding. Ordered but way too long and a lot of xtra material to give it that ballgown feel. Side zipper hard to zip will need help. Im 5’2 135 ordered size 4. Needed to be pressed and hemmed and bow on shoulder needed some love. Sent back love the pockets tho.
Stunner!
Lovely dress. Received many compliments. It was just a tad on the long side, but I am only 5’6”. Very well made. Perfect pick. Elated.

Gorgeous dress
I ordered about 6 dresses from few websites, they all had good reviews, this one did not have any. This dress LOOKS amazing, LOOKS expensive, looks like a dress from the runway! I added a belt and it was a show stopper.
