I've been trying to get this dress for two seasons because I think it's one of the most darling and un-frumpy AC dresses. Judging by the other April Cornell dresses I've bought, I'd need a small, but I tried the medium hoping it would work (I'm 5'7", 36a bust, 41" hip) Sadly, there's so much excess fabric around the bust and waist in a size medium, that it wouldn't be worth trying to get alterations. Another disappointment is that this dress is described as "Cotton", but it's not. It's RAYON! (One side of the tag says "cotton", but the other side says Rayon - and it feels very synthetic, almost scratchy, like rayon. Another AC dress I bought was described and labeled the same (Cotton), and it was ruined by machine delicate cycle, and should've been labeled hand wash.

Pretty dress

Nice summery dress. Someone complimented me on it at the grocery store the first time I wore it. I'm 5'7 and the dress hits just a bit below my knees.

Very pretty dress and the fit was perfect. I didn’t care for the feel of the fabric, I wish I had realized sooner that it was not cotton.
However, it is a very nice dress.
