Very pretty dress. I have a larger hips so its tight on the high waist so hips are hidden. I had to order two sizes larger simply because I have a chest and couldn't get the smaller size closed at the top. I plan on wearing it to a fancy Long Island wedding so I hope I get compliments.

I bought this dress to wear for a formal gathering with a date. I purchased the Oasis Green, which green is his favorite color and he loved it!!! Not to say that I didn't love it too, but he loved it!!! The tie in the waist, gave extra definition to my small waist which was an extra added plus.

I bought this dress to wear to a summer wedding. It seems like everyone always wears black and I wanted something different. I've never had so many compliments on a dress - it was fabulous. The summer green color was amazing. It was a little more low cut than what I would normally wear, so I pinned it to be more comfortable. I ordered two different sizes just to make sure I got the right fit after reading the reviews. It was definately a great buy and I am now hooked on Chadwicks - you can't beat the prices! I can't wait for an opportunity to wear this dress again!

I have this dress in several colors and love the style, but this is the first time I have bought from this site. The material is not the same as the other dresses. This material is heavy and the blue dress was so sheer that it could be seen through. The main problem is that with both dresses, the zipper were sewn in such a way, that the puckered from the waist down, and was very unflattering. As far as the fit, the dress fits nicely and was true to size. The best thing about this whole experience was the customer service, they were so nice, and just took care of everything in such a professional manner.

I bought the dress in green in a size 10. I am a size 8 who wears a 38C bra. Although I could get the dress on, it was super-snug fit and a challenge to zip the back of the dress by myself. Once on it is gorgeous, but it does provide a lot of cleavage. Just beware if you have a broader back that you might want to go 2 sizes up rather than one, and also be prepared to buy a bra that doesn't show your new decolletage.

I purchased this dress for a wedding and unfortunately, it just didn't fit me right. The bust is very low cut so you can't wear a bra with it and that is something I would never do. Also, it was very high and tight in the waist, which then made my rear-end look huge! It was also too long, but the petite size was not available. So, it has to be returned.
I bought the island blue, which is a beautiful color, perfect for summer. The style and fabric are perfect for a special occassion dress, dressy but not over the top. Too bad it just didn't work for me.

I bought this dress after reading the other reviews on the website. I am planning on wearing it to my brother's wedding in the fall. Overall, it is a very feminine, graceful, flattering dress and nice for a special occasion. It does run small and I am glad I took other readers' advice and ordered one size larger than I normally wear. The bustline is fairly low; I do not have a large chest so it isn't really a problem for me but someone who is larger on top may not feel comfortable in this cut. My husband wanted me to get the blue but it was on backorder so I chose the blush which was the only color available in my size. It is really a deep salmon pink/coral color and a pretty shade, especially for fall, but the name "blush" is very misleading for someone who may be expecting a paler true pink color. The dress came out of the package without a wrinkle except for the ends of the satin sash so I imagine it is going to wear well without needing alot of ironing. I would also say I wish there had been a picture of the back of the dress on the website because I was expecting something a little different based on the cut of the front; it is not a "v" in the back but comes all the way up to your neck. All in all, I think it is a nice dress for the money and I am looking forward to getting the chance to wear it on more than just this one occasion.

My bridesmaids wore this black dress in my wedding. They all really like the dress except the deep v front. I had every one of the dresses "tacked" in front to add more coverage. The style was very flattering on all shapes and sizes. I did have one problem when ordering. The demand was too high for this dress, so it took forever to get them in. I was going to have the candlelighter wear it also, but that dress never came in.....so I had to go to plan B and find a different dress.

I bought this dress for 6 bridesmaids of quite varying sizes (8-22). Two of the ladies had new babies so I was concerned about the bust measurements. I agree with other raters that the sizing was not at all consistent with the size charts; however, once you got a size to fit correctly, it was great looking. On all six bridesmaids,the waist ran tight and the bust was big. The color "blush" was not pale pink as pictured, but a beautiful shade of deep coral pink. Although the dress is lined, a half slip is needed. The dress could have been worn straight from the box...needed no ironing other than touching up the sash.
