This dress is made for a woman with no defined waist and not curvey like me. The dress was nice, but I would have had to do significant alterations to make it work for me.

I used this dress for church, it wore and felt great. I like the side zipper. The side zipper seems to be coming back in style. I love clothes that are lined, they hang better.

This is a lovely dress in a very nice delicate pattern. Fit is perfect. Only concern is the bias cut "ruffle" just below the bustline. This may not be flattering for many women. Look closely at the picture.

I love the print of this dress, the length, the material. The waist feels just a touch big, but otherwise I love it. I will get a lot of use out of it as it is versatile and not trendy.

This dress is so pretty. Perfect color etc. Lots of compliments when worn to work and church. It just isn't that comfortable because of the tightness in arms. the rest of the dress is loose so a bigger size would be way to big. I rarely have that problem. In retrospect, I wished I would have returned because I find myself avoiding to wear it, because of the fit.

The dress is nice. However, I tried two sizes and the larger is too big, the other has sleeves and chest that are too tight. If you are a large built woman, it does not dress to slim, kind of make you look "square".

As true with most empire waist dresses, the bodice is a bit awkward fitting. I like the dress overall. Too much clevage but I was able to correct that by adding a piece of fabric to the bodice.

The dress was cute with a nice cut and great length. However, I did not like the ruffle that ran just under the bustline. The dress would have been so much more flattering without the extra fabric.

I plan on ripping out the sleeves and wearing it sleeveless under a jacket. The sleeves are not proportioned properly for larger sizes. If you try to raise your arms, the whole dress rises in a most distressing manner. Would not recommend to anyone over a size 16.
