Fits great and feels comfortable
The dress fits well and is very flattering. Feel like my chest won't show if I bend forward. Love the pockets.

Lovely color but big
I bought the bright coral pink color & was disappointed when I tried it on:
It was several sizes too big {and I had picked the 2 petite size}
The tucks, which look charming in the picture, weren't flattering & looked like they were to adjust a too big neckline
The sweet cotton pique print looked like the texture of a paper towel
Needless to say, I returned this dress, dearly wishing it had worked as it's hard to find pretty, feminine dresses.

Classic, stunning dress, good fit
While this dressy may be a tad "formal" for the South, it is indeed a classy sophisticated dress that fits to perfection. I did so love the stretch factor; none of us are a perfect size; and the pink is both unusual and superb.
It can be dressed up or down, and with the right jewelry and heels could be worn to church or a garden party. I think it is much nicer than the picture shows - try it, you'll like it!

Perfect except it was so small in bust area
Granted, my bust is larger (nursing and am around 36DDD), but the Women's Sleeveless Ponte Sheath fit in a size 8 (almost too large). This size 8 felt almost two sizes too small. The material and the color were fantastic and I was hoping to be able to try on at store, but they weren't carrying this in the store. Debating on ordering again, but don't want to have the hassle of making another return. Disappointing.

Cute, but really small
I was excited for this arrive after reading the other reviews, but boy, does this dress run small. I am 5'11 and 155, and usually a Lands End size 10 runs big on me (I have a size 10 skirt from this past winter season I actually have to pin) but when I tried this on, I could barely get it past my hips. Way too tight in the bust and hips and I have to return. Disappointed, because the material and cut are cute.

Cute, Stylish, Perfect for Summer!
This is such a cute dress! It fits true to size (unlike some other Lands' End products) and is just so adorable! You can add even more character to it by adding a cardigan (both items #420081 Women's Skinny V-neck Cardigan and #393777 Women's Regular Soft Rayon Blend V-neck Cardigan Sweater look great with it) or a waist belt. I purchased this dress in blue grass, which is similar to kelly green. It's made of high quality, durable fabric. This will definitely be my favorite outfit for the summer!

something not quite right
Overall this is really a lovely dress: it's lined, has pockets, nice thick pique fabric which is getting so hard to find. My problem was the fit: I am normally a size 8 but I ordered a size 6 (I'm 5'10" 138#) based on the fact that I bought some LE dresses last summer in 6 and they were loose, if anything. This one fit well everywhere except up top where it was almost painfully tight - and I'm only a 36A. Armholes were cut awkwardly and showed a little more flesh around the armhole than I prefer. I'm worried if I exchange for the 8, it will be too loose around the hips, but really hoping it will fit as this is such a nice summer dress overall.

Love, Love, Love this dress
Just received the dress and it is lovely. I bought it in the green color and it is a nice rich green. I wear a size 18 and that is the size I bought. It fits perfectly. It gave me a waist that I seem to have lost after giving birth. And it has side seam pockets too. So cute. Please make more colors.
