I can hardly believe this stunning dress didn't sell out immediately! It's the most beautiful dress of the season! In a light bright shade of Lilac, the photos do not do it justice. It's layered nicely so I don't need a slip with it. It fits beautifully and drapes well, but if you're busty you'll probably need a larger size. I love that it's dressy and still so feminine. The embroidery is the prettiest I've ever seen. I do save this one for nice events. It's that beautiful.

P & P in Orchid
Posted by Patti H on Mar 10th 2026
This beautiful light orchid dress just arrived and it is lovely! It comes with it's own slip and the embroidered flowers are the perfect accent. It has a very flattering fit even on this little squatty body middle age has foist upon me. I can only imagine how gorgeous it will be on a young person. It tells me I do need to visit the gym before spring officially arrives. I have been stress eating lately so it's no surprise. I've become a big fan of April Cornell in the last year since finding the website. Wearing ugly slouchy clothes working on the house gets tiresome. AC has refreshed my wardrobe wonderfully!

Pride & Prejudice Dress - Amethyst
Posted by Unknown on Feb 3rd 2026
Your recent catalog arrived and the first thing I saw was on your back cover; that lovely lavender spring dress. It looked so beautiful, delicate, and flowing. I ordered it right away before this dress was sold out. Thank you for designing lovely, feminine dresses!
