Default Dress--opinions?

Hi guys, sorry if this isn't the right place to put this, I wasn't sure where it should go.

I have my Commencement Ball in about a month. It's kinda like prom for college. But less dressy, it's the Saturday before our graduation, and just like a fun night out.

So, everyone is starting to get their dresses, and as usual it's really hard because of my size (about a 20/22...but slowly moving towards a 22/24 ). So I have been looking online (I found so many great sites on the plus size stores sticky). So I found something and I think I might like it and I was just wondering if you guys had any opinions on it.

The dress is pretty open, some people wear long prom type dresses and others wear short cocktail dresses, so I figured I would go inbetween.

Please be honest, thanks

I like it...very pretty. I, personally, don't feel comfortable in sleeveless dresses but I know other cysters IRL that look very attractive in them. So, as long as the sleeveless thing doesn't make you feel self-conscious and ruin your evening, I say go for it.

And learn how to face my fears

I wanna leave something here

That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah, I wanna be running

Thanks guys. I just really want to feel beautiful that night, especially since all my roommates and friends (who are all pretty small) will be all dressed up, I just don't want to feel out of place.

Also, the dress is from www.igigi.com, has anyone ever bought something from there? If so, how was the quality? I'm just wondering because I bought a dress from sizeappeal.com for my aunts wedding last summer and when I got it it was horrible. A really cheesy material and not well made at all. I still get a little nervous buying from websites, especially for plus size. It's so annoying that we have to pay more and sometimes get less quality.

Thanks

If your consicious about ordering online, try ringing up the people ? There should be a number on the site somewhere, where you can make an enquiry ?

But i do agree with the others, the material looks elegant, the cut is beautiful and the colours are exquisit. I would say it is a must!

I hope you have the loveliest day! (As im already sure you will look stunning!)

A beautiful dress!! It cuts off right under the breast line so it's very flattering for plus size women. You'll look gorgeous in it!!
