This dress is all over the place for me. I'm mostly going to keep it but I have to get it properly tailored because oh boy!!! That size chart got me all types of messed up. I may get another dress but in a Medium First thank you for having a fun seersucker dress. They are hard to come by and most of this fabrication comes in pantsuits.... I'm not middle aged and not planning on wearing one anytime soon! I have a number of issues with this dress! First the length of it. I tend to dress in very classic silhouettes so the majority of my dresses come to the knee or lower. However I can live with the length of this dress - I will have to wear shorts underneath it now because when the wind picks up its flips up way too easily! Second - this faux wrap top works for no one! I wear a 34DD with a 30" waist and went by the size chart which puts me at a large. The top does not keep shut at all. I'm wearing it for a second time and I have to keep it safety pinned shut otherwise the whole world gets a peepshow! I didn't sign up for looky-loos! Third - The belt! This fabric is very limp and I was very excited that It came with a belt that I could make a bow. I love bows when they look like bows! This belt is just a single layer of fabric so when i tie it the thing just falls flat and limp! Fourth - I swear I am almost done! But the stripe is going in a different direction from the top and it's driving me crazy! Seriously bonkers. The top part of the dress is going vertical so I expected the skirt half to also go in that direction. Ok I'm done here. I seriously love seersucker. It's such a fun summer fabric but boy this dress just had me going.
Not for me
Not flattering at all. The dress is very full at the bottom and makes you look bigger than you actually are. I'm returning it.
Big
Runs large. The skirt is a bit more full than depicted in the picture so if you're short and small frame it's overwhelming.
A little too short
The dress is cute. I ordered it in the blue & pink seeesucker. The medium was a too short, hitting me a few inches above the knee (I'm 5'2). When I went up a size, the length was better, but the rest just didn't lay right since it was too big. Both sizes showed a lot of cleavage & would have needed to be pinned or worn with a camisole. Cute dress, but not a keeper for me.
Cute summer dress
I liked the style and seersucker fabric plus lining. I just personally needed a little more wiggle room at waist.
Loved this dress and the fit
Unfortunately I have to return as I am very large chested and there is no room in the top for very large breasts.
Perfect Spring Dress
I bought this dress before Mother's Day and it was perfect for brunch! the adorable seersucker material is ideal whether it's a day at the derby or a day to shop downtown! it's so versatile, a total must buy!
Perfect summer dress
This dress is so flattering and classic enough to wear year after year. I purchased this in the "soft shell combo" color, which is a subtle light pink and white stripe. The seersucker fabric is very soft, and the cut of this dress is extremely flattering. The bodice does seem to run a bit small. I purchased my usual size and felt that the top was a bit tight across the bust. (For reference, I'm 5'4" 110 lbs and purchased an XXS).
