I wanted to like this dress... but it is terrible! I saw all the positive reviews and I love the way it looks in the model photo, but in person, it is WAY SHORT. Like all the reviewers say, it definitely needs to be pinned in the front-- even then, I'd still calling it a "standing-only" dress. The front really does shrink your torso because of the high wait and short hem, and I feel like there is a lot of extra fabric on the bottom. I ordered an XS and it barely covered me. The S was better, but still inappropriately short for the occasion (a wedding), so I didn't even bother packing it. Maybe it would be ok for a club, but even then...

I loved this dress! I'd describe more as an orange and less as a tomato-red, though. It is perfect for a summer night, or a summer wedding (what I wore it for). Not too short, I thought it ran pretty true to size, maybe just a bit on the small side. Like another reviewer said, though, the snaps on the back do pop open easily! Loved this.
