    Comments about Jessica London Maxi Dress With Surplice Front:

    The dress looks quite nice, the fabric is a good quality, and my husband even likes the red ochre color. It is snug under the breasts, but I ordered small and it still is pretty comfortable. I am glad I bought it.

      Flattering maxi that is easy to dress up with jewelry/high heels for special occasions, or wear with more casual accessories for dinner out. Waist was a bit snug. Good value! It looked better and fit better than a dress that cost 3 times as much.

      It's a nice good-quality black dress that can be dressed up or down. Fabric is much better than so many lightweight clingy ones used in dresses now.

      Comments about Jessica London Maxi Dress With Surplice Front:

      I was overall pleasantly surprised with this dress! I thought the fabric was going to be more of a cotton feel, but it is silky and feels great. Perfect dress - I just wish, like the other reviewers said - that the waist band was bigger. It is REALLY tight. My husband had trouble zipping it up, and I dont have a huge upper mid section (where it hits - below the breast). I may take it to my tailor to see if she can help. The v-neck is perfect - low but flattering and you don't have to pin it closed. Also I noticed with heels, the dress seems a tad short - and I am only 5'4". I usually wear a size 14/16 but ordered a 12 based upon the reviews and the size is perfect (except the waist!)

        Comments about Jessica London Maxi Dress With Surplice Front:

        This dress is very long. I'm 5'7" and this hits the floor without shoes. I'll be heming it to mid-calf. Other than the length, I think I'm really going to like it. I'm not crazy about the color (mustard), but I think with a few accessories, it will be fine.

            The dress is wrinkle-free, in beautiful colors and takes up a very small space in your suitcase. It fits and moves well, and is flattering. My only issue with this dress is that it is a bit big in the chest, but with a larger chest (I'm 40C or D )it would fit perfectly. I simply pinned the bodice, and it's fine.

              I didn't care for the way the front opening was constructed. The facing and seam showed, detracting from the appearance of the dress.

                The dress is a great cut with a classy drape. The colours are to die for. My only negative point is that it runs a bit large. If you order a smaller size, it would be perfect (I am a pear shaped plus size woman, larger hips but normal size waist up)
