Purchased in March 2018. Worn on wedding day in August 2018. Had it drycleaned immediately after. Ready to be used. I am 5'2" and did not altar the length, perfect with heels (about 3-4").Corset inside. I am 36 C with waist about 29, but with the corset it was about 34 on the bust and 27 at the waist.
