Nice quality but too short for my taste

This dress is a very high quality knit and I like the sheer neckline, which makes it a bit unusual and feminine. But it was too short for my taste, particularly since the skirt was a bit flouncy. I would have worn this if it had been a few inches longer. The fabric is not very forgiving in the waist area, so something to think about if you are at all self-conscious in that area.

Great dress!

Very cute dress. Nice heavy knit material, definitely still shows any lumps and bumps. Very stretchy. Nice length, heaviness drags the mesh part down a bit, but I really liked it!

Cute Preppy Dress

I wore this dress to our friend's wedding at the GA Tech game. It was the perfect mix of wedding chic with preppy game day fit. I wore it with sneakers. I have a long torso and it went slightly past my knees. It's very stretchy and comfortable. It does cling to hoops/muffin top so if you are self conscious of those areas, might want to avoid without spanx or something else. Overall great dress.

Cute but nothing special

This one fit well in my usual size and was cute enough, but it wasn’t my favorite.

Very soft & comfortable material. A little long for my 5'4 frame so it bunched a bit in the waist.

Honey - the neckline

Things I would change: the length is just a little too long. I would have had this dressed altered in the length if this was mine. Another thing is I ordered this dress maybe a size too big. With that being said - the dress reminded me of a modern take on Wednesday Adams. It's a conservative dress but the details make it fun. Check your sizing before order.

I rented this for a work dinner and it was a great choice!

The fit was great although the material was heavy like a sweater, thank goodness for air conditioning in south Florida!!

Very Cute- unforgiving to a belly

Cute style, good quality and the neckline is adorable. However, I was unable to wear this one. The waist was too long and it clings to the belly. Not for a petite size.

was too big. More like a medium to me. Also too low cut, but that might have been a sizing issue

Not the greatest fit

Usually I love the A line dresses but this one hugs and points out the love handles too much, top and shoulder area was big and lose (stretched out). Did not wear.

Adorable for work event

I wore this dress for a work event. Very cute and professional. Fits true to size. The sheer-ish panel in the front is very fun and girlie but is still work appropriate.

Dress fit is true to size. Length: 35.5"

The A-line hem added a dressy feel. The ruffle detail at the neckline was adorable. This dress was my second choice but, I liked it more than my first choice.

Gorgeous dress! Tons of Compliments <3

Super thick, forgiving heavy fabric. Beautiful details in the neckline. I am a natural 8/10 and ordered a Large. Would go with a medium next time.

Comfy, well made but a little on the tight side

This dress is super cute and looks like it does as pictured. The only issue I had was that I found it kind of tight, especially in the hip area, so I definitely needed shapewear, but I guess that's sometimes the case with sweater dresses. As one other reviewer mentioned, it does seem to be slightly long in the torso which could make the fit awkward if you are more petite. Overall though, the dress is really well made, great fabric, and surprisingly didn't cling too much to my tights.

Easy dress for a client meeting

Very cute dress, fit true to size. It is a tight stretchy material so it does show the belly a bit, but it wasn't a that obvious because of the a-line cut. Loved the mesh detail, wore with a strapless bra. Wore with a skinny black belt and black Mary Jane heels.

Cute doll dress

This dress is very feminine and great with tights. I wore it to work even with the sheer chest area. I think this would be a nice casual holiday party dress.

Very Heavy Fabric

I didn't realize how heavy the fabric would be so it's not a good fit for me right now. The dress is skin tight but hits in the right places. The yoke is quite low so you'll need a plunge bra to pull this one off or will have to go braless.
