Description
A dress with flare.
- Crisp-yet-soft cotton lawn
- Pretty surplice bodice
- Set-in empire waist has a hint of elastic in back
- Graceful flared skirt
- Timeless knee length
- Approximate lengths (from shoulder to hem): Regular, 38 1/2"; Petite, 36"; Plus, 42"
So pretty – and so comfortable! There's just something about an empire waist that flatters every figure. And the flare skirt creates a soft silhouette that isn't too "poofy." The fabric is feathery-light. But don't worry that it's too sheer – we added a full lining, so you needn't worry about hunting for a slip. Invisible side zipper. 100% cotton. Machine wash. Imported.

Too big and too short.
I'm sure this dress would be lovely if it fits you! I am 5' 10" and about 145 pounds. I purchased a small and a medium. Both were too big and if you are tall.....they are way, way too short...at least if you are over 40 years of age! If they made them in tall, it would make a difference but there would still be extra material around the bust (unless you have a large bust, of course). Quality seemed good, colors were pretty. Give it a try if you are not tall and are bigger than a 34C.

I was excited to purchase this dress. I loved it on the model.
According to most size charts I am an inbetween with most items. I purchased two sizes. First, for the price, I was disappointed in the quality. Second, the catalog copy description stated dress was lined. Even with the lining there was see through with both dresses. Third, on the model it appeared there was ample coverage for the breast area. The dresses on me revealed deep cleveage. Fourth, being a large breasted woman the bras I wear have wide support straps. While I realize I was going to have to purchase a different bra, for my size I would not have had the option for thin straps. Fifth, I wanted the length of the dresses to be longer. I was purchasing the dress for a wedding. I am sad this didn't meet the criteria. Thanks for the opportunity to share.

Perfect!
I just purchased this dress in the brighter blue to wear to a wedding. I have a very large chest and normally have a hard time finding things that fit. This fits so well and makes me look slimmer and feel great. I am on the shorter side, so I will probably get it hemmed a little so it hits closer to my knees. My only complaint is that it's a little poofier than I normally like, especially in the front. Other than that, it's a great, light weight, summer dress.

classic but big in chest
I was hoping for a classic and simple navy dress. The dress fit well in the hips, butt, and abdomen, but was huge in the chest. I'm 5'3" and athletic in fit....the smallest size, 2 was perfect except in the chest - gapping fabric that couldn't be altered and look nice. Unless you have D size or larger breasts, the top will be large in this size.

Very nice dress
This dress is very pretty and nice. It fits true to size and is very flattering. I am a bigger busted person and it cuts my chest very nicely. Make sure you have a bra that has a lower back though because this dress is cut in the back to show a lot of your bra. I have to buy a different bra now but, that is ok. I still really like this dress.

Great summer dress!
I now own this dress in 4 colours (bought navy and white last year and brilliant blue and watermelon sorbet this year)! It is a great summer dress...does a perfect job camouflaging larger hips and/or a bit of a tummy.

Super cute & comfortable dress.
I absolutely LOVE this dress. It is very flattering and comfortable (hard to find combo). The fabric is light so it really falls nicely. I paired it with a cream colored cropped cardigan, but with the blue color you could really brighten it up with other options. The style is classic. I did find that I had to go down a size, but I have a smaller waist & bust (it's my hips that get me), so it may just have been me.

Side closure difficult
It is a pretty dress, and I'm frustrated it didn't work for me. However, I am a very full busted woman, and the dress utilizes a zipper on the side beneath your arm to close it. I was not able to successfully reach around my bust to close it. Therefore, it was a no-go for me. Probably a nice dress for a woman who is able to reach it!

My new favorite
I'm wearing this dress to a rehearsal dinner and would give anything if the bride had chosen this as the bridesmaid dress. It fits perfectly and is very falttering. I'm usually a 12 or 14 so I ordered both sizes. The 12 was the better fit so I went to Sears to return the larger dress. In the store they were selling the same dress in other colors and designs. My return became an exchange!

Lovely dress with nice color, would recommend to others
Great dress, love the color. The dress is shorter than the picture indicates, falling just above the knee. The dress is sized a little big, probably not the best for someone small chested. I am fairly full sized and needed every bit of it to fill the top out to prevent sagging. Needs delicate washing as only washed a few times and already have stray strings coming out of the lower hem. Overall, I love the dress as it is light, cool and comfortable.
