I like the dress and wore it to work yesterday. I wish the fabric was a little thicker to give it more body. But overall I like it.

I purchased 6 of these dresses for my sons wedding. I have 4 daughters and 2 daughter-in-laws who wore this drees for an all black and white wedding. The material the dress is made of is far nicer than I had expected. It pressed nicely and stayed very wrinkle free. The quality is excellent for the price. I could have never purchased the quality and quantity of dreeses at any local store, that I did with chadwicks. This is my forth childs wedding and all my girls dresses, for all four wedding have come form chadwicks. We have been equally please with all the other dresses we have purchased. I'll be back for sure when my other children get married. The only complaint the girls had was that it fit a little tight right where the ribbon laced through the empire waist line. Other than that, they fit very well. Thanks again I'll be back

This dress never fits. I ordered a size 6 at first then had to send it back and get a size 8 but it still does not zipper all the way. I'm not a heavy persone so maybe it has to do with the bust part why it doesnt' zipper. I sent the size 8 back and well, you guys sent me two of the same dresses in a size 8. I would now need a size 10 in this dress.

This dress is very flattering. I like the fact that it is lined. I purchased this dress in one size larger than I normally wear. The size 16 dress fits like a size 14. I would recommend this dress, but I would suggest you buy one size larger than your normal size.

I normally wear a size 10 but knowing that often Chadwick's clothes run small I purchased a 12. My fiancee tried to sip up the back and could have done it, if I never wanted to breath again. If i'd gotten a 14 it might have fit. But it is too late for me to exchange it.

This dress had an odd fit. The waist area is very tight while the shoulder area is large. I had to reorder a larger size and take in the top of the dress. I should probably have returned even the larger size but I really like the material and the pattern of the dress.

I found the waist and bust slightly out of proportion, but it may just be the one I got. Occasionally a garment may have slight irregularities, and I think this is probably the case since everything else I buy here is perfectly fitted to size.

My comments about fit in the review reflect what I would have said had I ordered my size. Following the lead of other reviewers I expected it to run small. Ordering a size larger was the right thing to do. It fits great. I just won't tell anyone what size it is!

I actually sent the dress back and requested a larger size (which of course kills a woman's ego) but I didn't want it so tight I couldn't breath comfortably.
I just wish you guys could get the manufacturer to add a little bit bigger seams. I love sheath dresses but I think they are designed for women with smaller hips than mine. I am a full figured woman, no slim to nothing hips and rear end on me!
Thanks.

I NEEDED TO RE-ORDER THE DRESS IN A SIZE 10. I NORMALLY WEAR EITHER A SIZE 6 OR 8. SO WHEN I READ OTHER COMMENTS ABOUT THE SIZING, I THOUGHT I WOULD BE SAFE WITH THE 8. MOST OF US WILL NEED TO ORDER ONE SIZE LARGER. THE DRESS ITSELF IS GREAT!

Really cute dress. Nice fabric and appears well-made, it just fits very small. The length is great, but waist and bust are very tight. I would recommend this dress but would say order at least one size larger than your normal size.

The dress is very stylish. My 14 year old daughter saw it and told me it will be her favorite dress that I own. The only drawback is the bow will eventually lose its shape.

Some of the stitching was missing around the zipper rendering it unwearable until either I fix it or return it (although an inconvenience to me).
Also, after reading other reviews, I ordered one size larger than my normal fit. The larger size fit perfectly.

Size was off by about 2 sizes!
I always wear a 10.
I ordered a 12 just to make sure it wasn't too small, since I don't like things to fit tight.
I could not even get it all the way on or zip it.
I had a friend who was a size 8 try it on and guess what, it fit perfect. So it was off by about 2 sizes.
Very disappointing that I'm charged with postage twice on something that was a company problem.
If size was accurate, I would not have sent it back. I needed it for a special occassion so I didn't have time to reorder a different size.
I am reluctant to order anything again because of the sizing problem and the penalty of paying postage twice.
