Bought this for my mom to wear to her grandsons wedding. The dress fits fine its just extremely long on my mom who is either 56 or 57, cant tell since she is over 80 and a little hunched over. We just have to get it hemmed up. Im 57 so I would say its the length for someone of 59, but fits perfect. I do recommend wearing a large collar necklace as shown in the picture with it because the collar shape is just a little odd to me, it just doesnt stand out.
