I received tons of compliments (including my husband) when I wore this dress the very first day! The red belt is a great touch. I ordered it a size larger which is wise unless you are a very small frame and no curves. I normally wear an 8P but I have found with fitted dresses from Chadwick's that they run to tight for my bust and hips. The 10P was a perfect fit. I love it!

The pleats in the front really emphasize and tummy you may have. It's like there's intentionally room for the tummy and that's not flattering. If the pleats were further or the other direction maybe that would work better. The belt us super cheap and tacky. The dress itself was nice except the tummy part.

The dress is very nice. I usually wear a 10P, but ordered a 12P because I am busty, not very, a 34C. Because, the dress has dart it tended to be a bit small on top. I able to wear it, but if I gain any weight, I won't.

The pattern, style, and fabric were very attractive. However, I'm a size 4 petite and the fit in the hips was "boxy." Also, the width of the belt made it "ride up" when sitting. I hesitated to return it but did.
It's okay for the summer.

Even better than it looked! I bought this to wear to a Spring outdoor wedding and was so impressed by the fit, comfort, and style! I got many compliments on it. I threw on a cropped navy sweater when it got chilly, and my small red clutch was the perfect accessory. Love the fit and it washes beautifully too. Great dress!

Overall the dress is very "now" in style, navy, bold print, etc. The belt is very poor quality and placed so high up that it would have to go around your ribs instead of your waist. Petite size ran true however, the design was definitely off and not like the on-line view.

I have ordered clothing items from Chadwick's for many years; this year the items in Chadwick's catalogs are becoming more stylish and fun; I am 55 years old and am told I look 40 and this is partly because of my choices of clothing styles and colors. When friends and co-workers ask what "store" my outfit was bought from I hand over a Chadwick's catalog for their shopping needs. The belted palm print dress is absolutely adorable, another one of my very good (and smart) buys!

Because it has an obvious linen-like weave/texture to it, I was afraid the fabric would be scratchier and heavier. However, I was pleasantly surprised that it is light weight, comfortable and drapes nicely. Fits great. Plan to wear to an evening cocktail anniversary party and later while traveling in Italy.

I bought this dress specifically for our annual company party called 'Beach Day'. We do this huge party every year in early spring to ward off the winter blues, as we are located in heavy snow country.
I love the Tropical print and the red belt really makes it pop. It is very versital and i will dress it up with Beach walkers, shell necklace and maybe a large rim red hat. What a great party dress. Aloha! (I won't have pictures until next month.)
