I love this dress! This is the 3rd black dress that I tried from Amazon and finally I have a keeper. The length is a little long, but since the lining is shorter than the length of the dress, I don't mind the overall length. It hits mid-shin on me, so a little big longer than the pictures...I bought a medium and it really fits great. I am 5'7 and about 140 pounds. I usually wear between a 6/8. If I had to give it one negative, it would be that that material is a little thin. I may need to wear a slip underneath just to make sure it's not see-through...  Besides that, it's great!
