The dress is crafted from a viscose-blend fabric, and is cut in a flattering fit-and-flare shape. Designed to fall at mid-calf, it’s complete with fabric covered buttons as well as intricate pleats and pintucks.
Another added: “This is a beautiful dress. The pleats in the skirt are flattering, it’s a perfect fit too.”
A third penned: “This is a timeless, feminine, lovely dress – I was worried the pleats would accentuate my hips and bubble out, but they fall low enough to create a subtle A-line shape. The fabric weight is heavy enough so it doesn’t highlight every lump and bump and will be comfortable in spring and probably summer.”
Although a great product overall, some customers weren’t impressed with the fit: “I really wanted to like this dress, the fabric and finish were good. But the colour was a darker green than the photo and the waist band in the dress sits very high.”
