I was skeptical at first when ordering it, thinking it must be a poor dress for the price but for one event we decided to give it a try. Beautiful dress!! It arrived really fast, it was a little wrinkled since it was only packaged in a bag ($12 in shipping?). The sash and flower are removable which is a good and bad thing. I would suggest pinning it in place the day of the even or it will slide up. The skirt of the dress is amazing. So you have a top soft tule layer that is visible in the pictures. A white opaque layer under the top layer. Then the awesome surprise, an under layer of fabric with a rough tule ruffle to help keep the top layer poofy. Then under this layer is a soft under layer to go against the girls legs. This surprised and excited me. No need to buy a special slip to help keep this dress poofy and cute. Total of 4 layers of skirt. I ordered a size 10 for my daughter who wears an 8 and it was a bit big but I wanted it big so she could wear again. I definitely would and will order again.
