This dress is breathtaking on! I am blonde and fair, and the color really pops! It does run a bit small, mainly in the armpits - the 44 also fit well, but I felt the length was better and draping fell more softly by going up a size. I am normally an 8 in other designers, and a 6 in off-the-rack. The silk is very heavy, so no worries about lines or bulges. This is the dress that hides every flaw, while drawing the eye UP! Its a keeper!

I loved this option since it was SO easy! You could just through the dress on, and look incredibly chic in a millisecond. I think with heels and the right undergarments, it would have appealed a little bit more to me, but regardless the color is wonderful and perfect for early fall! The straps are a little loose around the shoulders, so again, make sure you have the appropriate undergarments and you should be all set!

It wasn't either small or large but it just didn't fit well. I'm a huge fan of this designer and was a bit disappointed.
