This is one of those dresses that's a basic wardrobe staple. The black color is versatile, and the wider A-line bottom is a good contrast to the tighter top. I found this dress to be stretchy, and form-fitting. The length is pretty good--above the knees even on someone as short as me. The three quarter sleeve make this dress more wearable year-round, than short sleeves. I found the fabric of this dress to be comfortable, and the overall look to be basic but attractive. This dress can be worn pretty much anywhere, without worrying about revealing too much skin. When paired with high heels, I thought this dress looks especially good, as it shows off the legs well.
