R Johnson - 2 days ago, Verified purchaser
The dress is super cute. I really like the way it showed off my curves. I have smaller hips, so I like dresses that add volume there to balance with my top half. The top button gaped a little, but that’s pretty common for me. I fixed it with fashion tape. Has pockets. Super light and perfect for warm days

Nice material and quality, but not flattering…not for busty girls and the waistline is weird and loose. I ordered a size S, but could have downsized, but then my boobs would really not fit. No definition, not sexy.

Immediately yes. Loves it so much I bought 2 other colors. So feminine and classy. Also the material is so high quality. Not cheap at all. The only reason I’m docking off a star is because of the sizing. I feel a medium would be a better fit except for the chest area. I had to purchase a large which makes everything larger. It’s a huge size difference from a medium to a large.

Small was too small and the medium through the entire fit off. It's got great quality clothing and great style if you're the body shape for the particular dress.

It’s stars, I wouldn’t consider it paisley at all. Cut is slightly funny and adds volume in the lower half that isn’t flattering.

Super cute and light weight dress! It runs kind of large, I ordered an XS (5’2” and 115lb) and i still have a lot of room. Going to try shrinking it but overall i really like the fit.

Malyshka - 8 days ago
If you have bigger breasts definitely do not size down. I am 5’10”, 125 pounds (b-c cup) and a medium fits me just right in the top, loosely in the waist. A small fit me fine everywhere expect on top, where the buttons on top gape wide open. Still bought it because it is comfortable but wish they had made the top looser and the bottom/waist tighter.

J - 9 days ago, Verified purchaser
I got the white one. It’s very cute in theory, however it’s so transparent they you can see the pockets completely through it. They are large and it looked really odd. You can also see the extra fabric under the seams through it. It’s not something a slip can help.

Loveway - 9 days ago
I purchased a medium. I love the pockets and it’s comfortable & flattering on. I am 5’2, 145lbs & big chested. The length hits just above my knee. I will have to add a safety pin above the 2nd button to keep it closed securely. I tried a large, but it was way too big. Overall - I highly recommend this dress.

Usually I wear a large. I got both a large and extra large in this dress to try on, and both were gapping at the bust. It's unfortunate because I loved the dress. Had to return.

WhaleBaby - 9 days ago, Verified purchaser
Love this style. I'm 5'7" and around 125 athletic build, usually a 4 and the XS fits great! Tried a small but it was too loose. Solid blue is so pretty - material is linen like. Also buttons are functional and has pockets. Wasn't sure how this style would look on but it's so cute.

Leia - 10 days ago, Verified purchaser
This dress is very beautiful. I love how it cinches at the waste. I purchased an XL and typically wear a Xl-1x on top and a 2X on the bottom. I’m pretty tall and it was not toooooo short but maybe wearing shorts underneath would help.
