To start, I'll say that I LOVE this dress. It's my most frequently worn April Cornell piece. I ordered a 2X and I think it looks quite flattering in larger sizes. (The fabric is a little delicate, but I don't mind being careful for how flowy and lovely it is.) Except - despite fitting properly everywhere, in a way that is comfortable for me, and NOT pulling tight across the chest, the bust buttons constantly pop open. It's frustrating and makes it hard to wear this dress for work; I have taken to layering tops under it, but I really wish that the button hole were smaller, or the buttons were bigger. If that were the case, this dress would be perfect.

So very versatile; can be paired with a variety of colors and styles of tops to make a totally different look.

beautifully made, natural fabric (not synthetic), versatile, fits well, a design that will survive stylistic changes in the culture. Drew a lot of compliments.
