Flattering for all figures. Comfortable and easy to weary. Elastic at empire waist and arm holes is not binding or suffocating. Bought it on a whim and love it!

The overall fit seemed small or snug. I'm afraid if I went up a size it would be too big. It's a cute dress, it just didn't work out for me.

I ALMOST did not buy this dress based on everyone's negative reviews. However, I feel that Chadwick's clothing is generally too large on me and so I took a chance ordering this dress that everyone said was too small. It IS fitted and somewhat smaller than normal, but I like that. The skirt is poofier than in the picture, and the colors are not spring-like. However, it can be accessorized with bronze, beige, khaki, gold and white. The fabric is light and crisp. It is a cute, well-shaped, fitted dress.

This looked like a very comfortable dress in the catelog. I found the bust to be a little too fitted for me and with the elastic at the waist, it actually didn't flatter my figure very well.

The fabric is cheap and way too thin. But the worst part is that the elastic waiste rides up and poofs out in the back, making your bottom look like a giant bubble.

I returned this dress simply because it fit and looked nothing like the picture in the catalog. The elastic around the arms is very uncomfortable and the elastic around the middle tended to ride up. This was my first purchase from Chadwick's and I was not impressed.
