This is not it
Wrinkles very easily, the straps are funky and the waistline looks cute in theory but didn’t end up working out

Very comfy!
I liked this one so much I bought it. The chest was stretchy enough to go down a size, but the arms are tight. Very flattering fit. A little bit matronly because of the sleeves and where the waist seam is but good dress for everyday!!! Very breathable

Long arm straps
The arm straps are very very long. I could t wear this because the neckline came down really far because of this

A little too big
Loved this but it was a little too big up top. I’m shocked because I’m already used to size 16 fitting tightly on my chest but this was big, on my chest back and bust. If you are broad shouldered, it would fit perfectly

Cute but weird elastic
I liked this so much I bought it. If elastic waistbands bother you, I wouldn’t recommend. This one is especially bothersome as it gets twisted throughout the day

Great with a few tweaks!
Loved this dress for date night. I am larger up top and it was necessary to pin the buttons so they wouldn’t gap. It is very low cut with a flattering neckline. Love the pleats on the waist also!

Flattering Fit
I ended up wearing this for my graduation ceremony. Super flattering (especially if you have a bigger belly), wide straps kept my bra from showing. Fully lined inside, and very can get stuffy in warm weather. Since then, I’ve worn this dress for date night, work, and other events. Great find!

Perfect Maxi!
Wonderful choice for petite midsize ladies! I’ve never liked maxi dresses on myself because they tend to graze the floor, but this one barely hit the tops of my ankles. Love the a line fit and open back also!

Super small
I usually wear 14/16, but had no chance with this one. Very tight in the stomach, couldn’t even get the bottom half to zip.

Perfect for Spring!
Very cute! Love the length for petite gals. The buttons are sewn shut so no chance of gapping. Zipper was a little hard to function and pockets needed help to lay flat but it fits like a dream! Big chested girls beware, there are sewn in cups on the dress and they are very tiny. More than enough room for me, but the seams made my bust look strange.
