This looks better online. I thought it might be an option for dinner or church on Valentines weekend. Sadly, I didn't wear this one. The red was too orangey, and the unfinished peplum edge cheapened the look of the dress. Both the 1x and 2x were too small (I wear a 16).

Great Valentine Dinner Dress
This dress is fabulous. Pretty, comfortable, special. I wore the 18 for extra hip room (I'm a pear), but I could have worn the 16. Both dresses looked great on. For reference, I'm 5'3", and the dress came to mid-knee. Im also a 38DD, and was covered and comfortable in a strapless bra. I wore taupe patent sandals and golden pearl drop earrings and necklace as a special - and classy - finish. Perfection!

This fit, but the print was not at all attractive on my short, pear shaped body.

Theis fit, but was too low cut. The wrap “belt” is more like a fabric colored string, and didn’t feel secure.

This was too big on top, too snug on bottom. For reference, I am 38DD on top, pear shape.

Season transition perfection
I wore this to an evening church outdoor service, on a cool breezy evening. Paired with sheer black tights, heels and pearls, this kept me warm, and was appropriate to the occasion. The neckline was very low, so I pinned it to a better-for-me opening. This was a perfect fit and, at 5'3", was knee length, which is what I was looking for. Keep this in mind for fall/winter!
