La Llorona is a well-known legend in Latin American folklore. The tale tells the story of a woman who drowned her own children and was subsequently cursed to wander the Earth, crying and looking for them. It is said that those who hear her cries are doomed to meet a tragic end. According to the legend, the woman was once a beautiful and happy mother.

In her anger, she decided to take the lives of her own children, thinking that it would bring her husband back to her.

- Sarah - 1 star - This dress was a complete disappointment. The fabric was cheap and itchy, and the fit was horrible. The color also looked nothing like the picture online. I couldn't wait to take it off as soon as I put it on. Definitely not worth the money.
- Michael - 2 stars - I had high hopes for this dress, but it fell short. The design was not flattering at all and made me look bigger than I am. The material was also very thin and see-through, and the stitching was uneven in some areas. I would not recommend this dress to anyone who wants to look good and feel confident.

Save your money and look elsewhere for a better option.
