Golden Flower Dress - Sage

I purchased a M with the slip and the Amelie leggings. It feels luscious, not too thick, cozy, and autumn-y. The skirt is fuller than I thought, which can be a little tricky with my middle-aged body, but because it ties in the back it still ends up being flattering. It is even more beautiful in person. All I want to do is read Anne of Green Gables and drink a spot of tea.

I love the products of this company, and many of the dresses have beautiful patterns and are very carefully put together. However, most of the dresses at April Cornell look best on woman who have smaller busts and smaller hips. Because I am an hourglass shape with slightly larger busts and hips, I found that almost all of the dresses I tried look too big on me. If you are more slender like the models, the dresses should look beautiful, but if you are more like me, you may find it more difficult to find a dress that fits you.

Ordered this dress to celebrate fall and let me just say it is so beautiful. The fit is perfection, I ordered my regular xxl, fit through shoulders and arms was great. The colors are so vibrant. It will be perfect for now as it is a not a heavy fabric and later on through the cooler months. I love the lining as well. It is cut to match the dress fullness all the way to the hem so no sliding up issues. Just love it!!

Beautiful colors - great shade of green with pretty gold flowers. VERY autumn-y! These colors would definitely bring out hazel, green, or amber eyes (my hazel eyes pop in this!). The attached lining is nice and gives the skirt section some "oomph." Might want to size up one size if you have a larger bust and/or larger upper arms (like me!).
