The dress is exactly like you see it at the photos! Blue navy is such a classy colour and it fitted so well at my rumba choreography with the “titanic” song! Elegant and flattering for the body! Strongly recommended if you also take in consideration and it’s amazing price!
The shoes I ordered fit small and hit my toes. I was able to speak with customer service and they offered me a 40% discount and 10 %off my next order, if I wanted to keep the shoes and not send back. I'm still waiting for my refund but they did advise it would take a few weeks. I ordered another pair, 8.5 (I'm usually an 8), but they too are hitting my toes. The shoes are beautiful and well made but not sure if I can stretch them a bit to fit better :((
The dress is nice. I requested to have the front of the dress completely covered with fringe and when it came back it was not completely covered. I had to bring it to my seamstress to add another layer of fringe.
These are probably one of, if not the most beautiful pair of heels that I have ever bought myself!
The overall quality seems quite good, the styling and detailing on them is exceptional and they are just SO UNIQUE!
They are by far, the most glamorous heels I own, as the red sole gives a truly luxurious touch, which is not often come by on heels outside of exorbitantly priced designers, and uncomfortable cheap knockoffs.
I wish Dance & Sway had MORE of these red soled wonders for me to gobble up! Giggles.
Also, I never knew this before, but I recently realized that many dance shoes resemble that of true vintage styles, that they just don't make anymore.
So, as a "Vintage Girl" myself, I have found a new door to walk through in terms of shoes for my outfits!
Plus, I've realized that the flexible, light weight soles of dance shoes, allow for "pinup" like poses and movement, that regular shoes don't give, and allow for the "illusion" of a flawless arch, WITHOUT having to add unflattering height to one's heel.
I have not yet worn them for my intended Grand Evening Out, so I cannot truly attest to their function and durability under normal, "non-dance" wear, but I am strongly assuming that they should function perfectly fine for an evening of relatively light wear and will be utterly perfect for glamour shots.
However, the only downside of my experience, "besides the somewhat long, but not totally unreasonable delivery time," was that my beautiful new shoes made me realize that I apparently have morbidly obese ankles.
The straps are absolutely not long enough to clasp closed, for anyone outside the realm of stereotypical perfection.
BUT, with a little time, ingenuity, and a small additional expense, I was able to elongate the strap with an extender.
So, because they are SOOO BEAUTIFUL, and it wasn't too big of a deal, I am not deducting a star.
Though, people who purchase these SHOULD be aware that the strap may not fit them, and they may have to spend an additional few dollars for a couple of extenders.
They seem to fit perfectly fine now with the addition, and other than those little issues, I believe they will be the perfect "Grounding Jewel" for my G.E.O.
Thanks so much, and I very much look forward to modeling the HECK out of them soon. Hope this helps. Take Care!

The color is beautiful, they are really comfortable and the heel is the right size.
I can dance for hours and hours!
This Tango shoe is very light and perfect for the occasion. Perfect fit and great colour. Love wearing it.
Flexible, supportive and perfect. Much prefer these to the booties, and they look so cool. Highly recommend.
These dance boots are very comfortable and true to size. The heel is well supported, and the shoes feel soft and flexible while still providing great stability. They have a nice bounce, which makes dancing in them a pleasure. Highly recommended!
I took a chance on this dress not seeing reviews on it. It was also my first purchase from this company so I was a little nervous I will add.
I was not disappointed!
I recommend getting another person to take your measurements to ensure they are accurate.
This dress is super classy, it has different features which drew me to it upon seeing the marketing images. Nothing over the top - understated and so lovely. I'm looking forward to having the pleasure of wearing it.
The team at Dance and Sway were quick to respond to my many questions and I was super impressed to see how quickly my dress was made to my measurements and arrived in Western Australia.
Thanks for making this experience a pleasant one for me.
I bought these shoes for salsa classes and they're great. I probably should have added a half an inch to my size but they are very comfortable as is. Might get another pair later on.
These are comfortable and the sizing guide is accurate in terms of length. However, I agree with the other reviewer that they are loose. Therefore, ankle support is lacking and my feet slide forward a bit. I have the laces as tight as they will go and they are still loose! I ordered the 7cm as I am still new to heels dance so they are fine. However, I would be concerned if I had a higher heel height. Would still recommend though because I have danced in them for a 3 hour practice and my feet weren’t sore at all!
I ordered a large and its fits perfect. They confirmed my size so I'm glad they emailed me. Its a very secure dress so you dont have to worry about falling out of it if you have big breasts. I don't like the string that hangs out. Its to rouge the front. I am going to either pin or tape it during competition. Great price.
Love this dress but the snaps near the neck keep coming undone. You would
need to go to a taylor to secure the neck. The price is right!
great fit but the finge is burnt orange and the dress is more like a neon or bright orange. I wish the picture showed that. I ordered a large. Its very comfortable but the color contrast is not great. Get another color because its a great fit.
Very pleased with these - immediately comfortable yet look great! My only suggestion would be not to have such long laces - had to trim them
Loved this dress! Functional, breathable, fit well and absolutely gorgeous. It wasn’t exactly as pictured, but it still worked very well! Wore for two competitions and a couple performances and was very pleased! (For the pictures, I did pair it with shorts)
The quality of the skirt is amazing, I bought one and then we bought another one for my daughter so now we dance together!
Too long to get my order.
This skirt is high quality and has a real weight to it. The tassels swing nicely back and forth when I dance. The sizing guidelines are also spot on. I’m deducting one star because the solid skirt underneath the tassels rides up while I dance.
Great style, comfy soles.elastic straps are not adjustable so be aware before ordering. I put a tiny stitch in to tighten to fit and they are absolutely great. Nice soft flexible uppers and look like leather.
These shoes are so comfortable and fantastic to dance in. I bought three other pair and I’m waiting for them to be delivered.
I love love love this dress. I bought it in both red and black. I am a novice Latin/ballroom dancer of a more “mature” vintage and this offers enough coverage and is very flattering. The fabric is substantial (not thin or flimsy) and drapes beautifully. Check the size measurements…I am a US size 6 and the dress in size 2XL fits perfectly..
I found the shoes very comfortable and they look pretty cool with the satin finish.
I went for a cuban heel and I am loving the stability.
Customer Service helped me with shoe sizing very thoroughly and with choosing clothing sizing these pants are styled and fit perfectly
