The color blocking on this dress is quite novel. I added a red sweater over it during a party so it lost some of its kick but still remained a solid base dress. An easy wear made of a forgiving stretch fabric with a pleasingly stout zipper down the back. A wearer probably should be mindful that the fabric also broadcasts any bulges or rolls, esp. along the white side panel. The "Go-To Girl" I chatted with was worried about it being too long for me; however, at 5' 6" (w/o heels), I don't think that was a problem. More of a concern may be about whether the style is flattering to certain body shapes due to the cut and color pattern.
