The color of this dress is beautiful! I love the dark green. The color on the model is definitely more accurate than the dress form color. I tried my normal size (10/12) and didn't have any problems with the fit. The lining was a little tight on the bottom half but still wearable! The lining had just enough stretch to it that I still felt like I could move even though it was tight. This is a great dress for the price!

The cut of this dress is atrocious. I wish I had listened to the reviews posted before mine and had not ordered this dress. With it being on sale it is not valid to be returned or exchanged so if you buy it you're taking a total loss. Unfortunately the way this dress is pieced together...it's just amateurish and cut/ gathered unevenly which makes it bunch in odd places. It will be very few people that can actually wear this dress in a flattering manner. It was so beautiful in photos - incredibly disappointed. :(

I knew this dress was a risk, but the lining issue is the least of the problems. Initially it looked like an old lady frock I picked up @ a thrift store. Looks nothing like the dress on the model. Pros: Good color, well sewn. Cons: Side zipper which makes it hard to get on/off & it's sewn into the lining, so it doesn't flow like it should. Not an A-line. Lining is sewn w/ seam on outside so it sticks out. Poorly designed. I"m glad I sew, so I've fiixed a few things: Raised the hem by 2.5" so it hits me @ knee. Taken sleeves in & raised them by 6" so it actually hits me right above elbow, took in back princess seams by a few inches, so it fits correctly. Added extra fabric around top waist seam for a belt detail to hide seam alterations. It was a challenge but looks much better. Altogether, don't buy this dress, or the remake unless these other problems are address too. I've bought 3 other dresses from SA & loved them. Huge disappointment.

This dress is VERY poorly designed and is unflattering. I have now order two sizes up in my size and nothing fits. I am very unhappy altogether with my purchases from SA. DO NOT order this dress!
