I can wear the dress with flats to a casual wedding or I can dress it up with heels for a more formal wedding. It does wrinkle easily and had to be seriously pressed before it could be worn. I was expecting the dress to be a more vibrant yellow with a really white trim; this was the biggest disappointment about the dress.

I do love the style of this dress --sort of retro/classy, & hope a smaller size will work. According to Chadwick's size chart in the catalog, I should be a 16. However, the dress was WAY TOO BIG at 16, so I will exchange it and try a 14 or 12. It feels large in the shoulders & narrow through the hips.

I haven't decided whether I will order the next size or not, so for now I simply returned the item.

I am a true size 8, 34DD, 5'8". I ordered the size 8 dress and it was tight throughout (bust and hips) but not the waist. The cut and color (yellow/white) was very pretty. The yellow was very soft. I'm debating whether to try one size up but am fearful the waist may be too big. Fits likes it's more of an 8 Petite. Didn't have it on long enough too determine if it wrinkles quickly.

I bought the black/white version of the dress for a business luncheon. I can fit into a size 8, but bought a size 10 since I didn't know how my hips/rear would look in it. Getting the next size up was the right decision; I think I would have felt strangled in an 8. The dress does wrinkle easily; it's made of linen/cotton, after all, but it didn't show as much in black. It was cool, comfortable, and I received many compliments on how it looked on me. I would recommend this dress if you are looking for a stylish summer work outfit.
