I love this dress! It's hard for me to find dresses I feel like I look good in, but this one did the trick. Flattering cut - love the v-neck, the waist is empire, dress is right at the knee, so not to long, not too short. Fabric is structured, too, not that knit material that hugs every bump and bulge. I bought the petticoat, which I was unsure about. (Navy dress, bronze petticoat 26") Turns out to be beautiful and adds just a touch of flair to this otherwise low-key dress.
