I bought this dress because I have been missing tropical prints in my life and loved the bold color of the dress. When I received it, I loved the print still, but the fabric is more like a polyester blend that was super slick and stretchy. Not that it was bad, it was soft, but it wasn't a normal dress fabric I would wear, I'd wear this fabric for workout leggings. When I tried the item on, I found it wasn't very flattering in the chest and torso area. The pictures make it seem like it has a much lower neckline than it did on me which was very disappointing. There was also always this fold of fabric right on my back that never went away no matter how I wiggled the dress around (I think because of the type of fabric). Whenever I looked at the dress from the front, I looked quite boxy and wasn't impressed, but it was slimming from a side angle. I love skater dresses, but this one wasn't slimming head on like most normally are unless you have a very defined waist (which I don't).

Overall, as much as I loved the pattern, the dress itself wasn't good fabric quality or good fit on me to make me want to keep it, so I returned it. But because I love the pattern, I'm still going to keep my eye out on other CowCow dresses, but likely in different cuts. I would recommend it if you like the light polyester mix fabric and love the patterns.
