I love this dress! Reviews say sizing runs big, so i ordered XS rather than my usual S. I'm 5'6" & weigh 135. Fits to perfection & since the material is gauze-like thin, a black slip also comes with the dress. I didnt realize this when i ordered, so i ordered a separate slip. I love the side pockets of the dress, the embroidery at the chest, & the length. Wore this to a burial service deep in the countryside on a hot summer day. A perfect choice!

Black Debutant Dress

I just love this dress. The fabric is kind of gauzy in feel, has a nice slip to go under it, which was a nice bonus feature. The style of it I would label Edwardian. I felt like I could have just stepped onto "Titanic" when I put it on. The pockets and adjustable tie at the waist are always appreciated in April's dresses.
