Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

Do like the style of the dress. I think this would look better on someone who is over 5 feet tall. The top fits like a dream,the waist cuts you in half and if your taller not a problem. The dress feels very rich and well made. Maybe if i put a sweater with it may work better. Do go a size larger if you are big busted. I did and the fit was perfect.

Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

I love this dress! It is so classy looking - very retro. I purchased a short-sleeved sweater with it and it really makes the outfit perfect for any weather. I don't wear sleeveless anything, so the sweater is exactly perfect with it. I wore it to work and got tons of compliments. It's perfect for anytime and anywhere.

Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

This is a beautiful dress, but I had to return it because it was way too big. It was the first time I had ordered from Jessica London, so no fault. Even if it had fit I could not have kept it for I ordered it for an outdoor June wedding. The dress although sleeveless is fully lined and would have been way too HOT.

Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

Perfect dress for a rainy graduation day: kept its shape and look. Be careful to get it a little smaller as if it does not fit snuggly at the waist, it will add unwanted volume. Fortunately, I can sew and was able to take in the waist and top while leaving the bottom volume.

Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

I'm tall, this dress design is short waisted (which you can actually see in the shown photo). It's almost an empire style fit on a tall (5'7") gal. Plenty of room for a good size bust so I'm keeping it to use as a summer time short dinner dress. Material and lining is very nice.

The arm holes need to be bigger and the zipper needs to be in the back. If I keep I will probably have to order a bigger size because of this.I like the feel of the fabric and the style of dress.

Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

I bought this dress to wear to a friend's wedding this summer. The first time I ordered this dress I ordered according to the size chart and the dress was like a tent on me, I had to return it and then ordered two sizes smaller, and it fit great. I'm only 5 foot 3 so it's a little long on me, but otherwise I just love it!

Comments about Jessica London JL Studio™ Empire-Waist Dress:

I fell in love with this dress on the Web site, but I was really disappointed with the fit. The top half is OK, but it flairs out a LOT at the waist and makes my bottom half look like a pop tent. I don't think that's an area of my body that needs extra bulk. I'm too lazy to send it back, but I don't think I'll ever wear it in public. Maybe I'll use the fabric (which is really nice) to make a better dress.
