This is a Great Basic Dress!
I need one in every color! Background on me. I am 5’4”, hourglass figure, a fit 136 lbs, 35” bust, 26” waist, 38” hips. I ordered a small and fits perfectly. Not too tight or too loose. I would recommend this dress in every color as a basic. It does need at least a slim belt and unique shoes to break it up and looks so polished with just a few touches. Also, this dress is well priced but I would recommend it regardless of price.
One thing to be aware of. The different colors come in different fabrics. The first dress I got was the dark navy and it is a perfect mix cotton, nylon and spandex. The dress is not lined but the fabric is thick enough to not see body imperfections and undergarment lines and stretches where you need it (bust, hips). Then I needed a pink one for the Barbie movie (got deep rose) and the peacock one to pair with some new Freebird shoes I got that are a unique color. Those two colors came in the polyester fabric. I was surprised when I opened the package. It’s buried vaguely in the description if you change your color choice and the scroll down to read about the fabric for each one. The fit is still good but I like that polyester fabric less as it shows more line and imperfections. For the basic colors (black, red, white, Navy, grey, light pink, etc) they all come in the nice cotton blend. I’m going to buy every last one. I dress up a lot and like to have options. Different belts, different jackets, different shoes all make them look different. The dress hits right above my knees. I didn’t buy any of the pattern dresses, but they are made of just cotton according to the description. I don’t care for the polyester ones and won’t be buying more of those colors.

My 2nd dress
I love these dresses! I have purchased 2 and they haven’t disappointed! They are very stretchy so consider sizing down if u want a tight fit! They are not see through, the fabric is good quality, they are comfortable, the weight of the material is nice, the shape of the dress flatters your body, and they have tons of colors! I will definitely purchase more!

 Tea time, work or church…. GET IT!!!
This dress surprised me! Loved the fit—does have some stretch to it and be careful ironing due to the material. I’m 5’3 and 150lbs. I bought a large because I didn’t want it too snug. I received so many compliments and the neck and capped sleeves made it even more elegant. I will be purchasing this in another color b/c I love it so much.

Pure Cotton- A Rare Find
I am 5’4”, between 110-115 lbs., and a B cup. I did have to exchange the first one I received because there was an unusual height from the Empire waistline upwards up the shoulder. The second dress I received did not have the disproportionate height in the shoulders. The pattern does not line up between all the pieces exactly, but nobody cared or noticed except me, lol. It would be nice though, if the company took a little bit more care to line up the pattern as they did in the example photo. So, that is the only reason that I would give this one less star. However, for the price and style you get what you pay for. Oh, and, I did not put in an a dryer so I couldn’t tell you if it shrinks any. I wouldn’t do that anyways because then it fades the fabric faster. I did not have to iron it though. I wore it to a day wedding with a an evening reception. All I did was parrot with a satin jacket to dress it up for the night.

My Classy Ladies Dress
I was so delighted to see COTTON as the main fabric being used in this dress, so it intrigued me to buy something a little different for my typical style. I'm planning on buying a body shaper to wear underneath, but I wore the dress the other night and received compliments. It doesn't wrinkle and I really like it.

 ITS AMAZING!!!!
Oh my god yall. Ignore my bare feet and just look at how nice this makes my figure look. I was so excited I had to take a pic right away. I have a very slim body and don’t have the nice curvy hips some ladies do :):) but this is the most perfect flattering cut with the material being thick or structured enough to kind of create that hourglass illusion. The print is GORGEOUS and so unique and cool. I haven’t taken it off since trying it on an hour ago bc it’s so comfortable and is making me so happy lol. The neckline is also so unique and cool looking. It is seriously the kind of one garment you can put on to immediately look put together, polished, attractive but also could be worn to the office or with like, combat type boots for an edgy look. I am in love! I am 5’7 120 lbs 34C-D and I got the Small. It’s also enough stretch to fit my chest too which is great bc I’m bigger there than below and it makes everything look evened out!! Ahhhh!! Now I have to look at the other colors/ but nothing compares to this pattern with the vibrant reds blacks tropical artsy vibe. GET IT.

Nice simple dress.
I was looking for a dress for my father’s funeral services and I thought this dress would be perfect and comfortable for all day wear. I originally ordered the XL but the fit was a little big the material is very stretchy so I sized down to a large. The L was the correct size. It was more snug but not tight. I receive many compliments people (and me too) really liked the neckline.
Definitely recommend, just be sure to size down because the material has a lot of give.

I fell in love with Swing Shift dresses.
Finally bought this dress and I’m so excited that I did. I purchased it in size 2X because I was taking in to account of the size or my hips plus if it somehow shrinks..However I think I would have been okay if I had got it in size XL??????

Love it...but
I'm a retro type gal so fell in love with the style of this dress the moment I found it. For the price, this is a fabulous dress. A firm 5 stars. However, I hate the fabric and the zipper. That being said, if I ever find a more expensive dress in same style with a nicer fabric, I will snap it up. I am 5'4" and weigh around 125 and ordered the medium.

Love Tiki Bird version!!! Is quick dry/spandex !!!
I have *3* versions of this dress- the Tropical bird/tiki & the pink tropical pattern version is a quick dry/spandex (no cotton) -easy fit & stretch material- you might need a summer weight shaper/smoother but it's so worth it! Adorable pattern- great fit & super flattering
.. best of all the spandex/cool dry fabric is super nice in the Florida heat and humidity- super fun

I also have the Freida inspired pattern- it's also gorgeous! But it's a heavy cotton blend -little bit of stretch & very flattering - for me it's more of an evening dress or a less hot day

I love both fabrics-
Just make sure you know which one you're getting

A perfect fit!
I needed an outfit for a dinner and wanted a quick and easy purchase. I am 5’10” tall, 164 lbs with a little tummy flab, and this dress fit me to a “T”! I love how it looks on me. I love the cotton material - seems like a permanent press fabric. Absolutely gorgeous- no alterations needed. Zipper clasps fit and work perfectly. The fit is true to size so get your recommended size although it has a little bit of give. Additionally, it is well made. I guarantee that this is an outfit that you will love wearing for a long, long time!

Beautiful print
I bought this for my daughter. Fit her perfectly. Sizing is true to chart. Bold colors. Well made. I thought there would be more stretchiness in the fabric but there is nothing saying that in the description so that was my oversight. Beautiful dress. Matches her tattoos and she got compliments from everyone when she wore it.

Well made, good fit!
I was a little nervous purchasing this, I plan to wear it to holiday and themed events this year so I wanted to give myself TONS of time if I didn't like it; however, I LOVE IT. The fit and cut is just as pictured, and it feels like decent material is used. I did have to buy a 2xl for size 16, but size is just a number, and it looks amazing on.

Fits to a T!
I finally got a chance to wear one of my dresses. I purchased this dress in several colors, but never felt the urge to try one on or wear one until today. I wore the dark blue one. I had the figure for it, but a concern of mine was whether the dress would ride up because I am shapely! If you're shapely you know what I mean...big thighs, big bum, wide hips and a small waist... a true hourglass. Since the dress was fitted and generous in fabrc, it's length was just above my knees. I needed that bit of grace today for the an event I attended. I was shocked to see another woman with a very similar dress, but not to worry. I looked better in my dress and the color was a darker blue. My dress made the most of my figure. That's what's different about this dress. You make the dress. It doesn't make you. . Based on the intense stares I received from the women and men, I knew I looked GOOD! I can't speak more highly of the designer who made this dress because it celebrated my curves.... tastefully. Think Sophia Loren, but appropriately covered up.
