Had to change out 15 min before event
I REALLY wanted to wear this dress to our school's annual benefit. Loved the material, look, pockets. BUT - perhaps just my short torso but the sleeves kept falling down. If I tried to pull the dress down so the sleeves stayed up then you could see the top of my bra peeking out. Had to a resort to a back-up from my own closet and thank goodness I did because I would have been fidgeting with this all night

Beautiful material, easy to wear
Pros: the material is thick with gorgeous details, the petite fit my 5'2" frame just right with heels, the shoulder line is super flattering. Wore to NYE and got tons of compliments. Con: there is a LOT of extra material in the back - almost a bustle at the butt. Made this a lot more formal than I'd anticipated - definitely a very A-line cut. If I had owned this I would have had this tailored for sure.

Stunning
This dress was fabulous for an indoor July wedding. Stretchy but thick fabric hugged well without revealing too much. As others have noted, it is rather long for petites - wore taller heels and at 5’2” would not have kicked them off. Chicken cutlet bra worked perfectly. Could not lift arms fully above head but enough range of motion that it wasn’t a big problem. I was probably between S and XS but felt great in the S dancing all night and received many compliments

The slit is aggressive
I did not wear this. The slit was way too aggressive for a school benefit gala. Color and material were nice.

Love love love
I got a million compliments on this at my kids' school benefit gala. Material is super thin and very breezy. Static guard a good idea. Important: it is VERY snug to get on around your head (think turtleneck), so I had to put on makeup after getting the dress on.

Spring 50th bday
Wore my normal size - a bit tight in hips but that's not unusual for me. Got a lot of compliments!
