This dress is sooo beautiful! Material thickness is perfect for fall/early winter. All of April Cornell's products are well made. However, I am 4'11". This dress fits all the way down to my ankles. Will have to take to seamstress to cut excess material on the bottom so that I can wear it JUST LIKE THE MODEL IN THE PICTURE. I also purchased the slip so it can be a little peek-a-boo of the slip. That will probably cost me half of what I paid for the dress. Downside :(
Model is absolutely gorgeous and shows April Cornell's clothing exceptionally well!! Beautiful!

Beautiful dress
Posted by Gisela on Aug 30th 2025
My first thought when putting it on and then looking in the mirror? That it made me look like a princess, an older princess maybe, but nevertheless royalty. I don't know what it is about this dress, I bought it because I thought it would complement my dark red hair and fair skin. It did, but it did so much more. I think this is my favorite AC purchase.

Well made but fabric is flimsy

Beautiful embroidery and is well made, but I wish fabric was sturdier
