fun pattern, comfy fit
The pattern is really fun and bright, there is a little sparkly thread in there too. It does feel a little worn/stretched out and somewhat see through. the neck was large and sleeves long, but I loved it and would wear again. I am a medium; I would definitely say this runs large.

fun print, fit & photographed well
Echo other reviews that it wrinkled quickly, but nothing you can really do about it. Got lots of compliments, hit my waist in the right spot. I'm typically an 8/10 with a large rib cage, but this still zipped fine with a strapless bra under. It cuts in a little at that armpit fat part I hate, but wasn't tight so I just kept my hair covering any bulges. The colors are vibrant and it was great for a summer outdoor wedding - felt pretty.

Work appropriate, comfortable dress
I am typically a L, but this one ran a little big. The medium would have probably hugged my waist more flatteringly. I wore to an office Christmas party and it was the appropriate length and I liked the sleeves. It is well-made and double lined.

Would not close
love the colors, pattern & material, but could not get the wrap to close - too tight. It was almost there, but it would have shown skin down to my sternum. I typically wear a M/L, so I was surprised. Did not get a chance to wear it.

Beautiful colors & pattern, nice cut
Needed a dress for a black tie wedding in Florida in May (think 95 degrees) and this was the perfect choice. The print is even prettier in person, very saturated beautiful colors - lots of compliments. I don't think it shows in the stock photos how high/low the hemline really is - your shoes definitely show; it came halfway up my shin in the front. I have a wide rib cage and the top of the 10R would not have zipped with a bra - pasties were totally fine. You can tell this dress has been through a lot - there are teeny thread pulls throughout which bothered me, but likely couldn't be seen by others. The waistline hit my natural waist perfectly and neckline covered that annoying armpit fat area. Length was not a worry - if it's too long it just reads as a train.
