If you're looking for a modest dress, this one fits the bill! You may need to wear a slip underneath depending on what colour you choose, though the dress itself isn't sheer, but if the lighting hits it in a certain way, you can see through a bit down below. I bought it for the Christmas season and have worn it several times, receiving compliments nearly each time! It's comfortable and light and you can dress it up or down which I LOVE! It retains a certain elegance without leaving you looking like you're wearing a sack :) Highly recommend!!!
