Unfortunately, I had to return the dress because it didn't fit me properly. I have size issues due to bone marrow cancer that has changed my body shape because of disc degeneration. The style and quality of the product were very good, just didn't fit! I was disappointed because it was so cute.

The picture of the dress on the model is kind of deceiving as to how the dress really looks. It doesn't show that the dress is pleated and how thick the ruffles are. Looks elegant/nice on the model (and from a distnce), but in person, the color is a lot flatter (duller?) than in the picture and the design is not as flattering as implied.

I got the petite becuase I wanted it a little shorter and it is perfect!!!! I only with it came in a couple more neutral colors.
from Indian Rocks Beach, FL on 7/18/2008
I bought this dress in two different sizes but the bust was WAY too small in both. I love the dress but it is not applicable to buy 2 sizes too big to fit the bust then have the bottom altered. I am a size 8P and the P dress was still too long....better luck next time.

Wearing it to a garden party, in the afternoon.

being 5 feet tall I can't really find a lot of dresses that fall right on me. They're usually always too long. But this dress is perfect. I got it for my honeymoon in Mexico and although I haven't worn it yet I anticipate a great result! My only complaint is that the material wrinkles very easily.
from Fair Oaks, CA on 7/1/2008
I loved the color and style of this dress but it didn't fit correctly in the waist/bodice so I am sending it back unfortunately.Maybe a regular size would have been better than petite in this style. I am disappointed in the quality of the dress. I haven't ordered from Chadwick's in quite awhile and the quality has certainly gone down!
from Co on 7/1/2008
I was hoping the slighly awkward, center of kneecap lenghth would be below kneecap on me, since i'm very short(5'0") but it hits mid-knee.It's still a really pretty dress,I wish I had prettier knees.

I paired this dress with the tulip sleeved sweater and it was perfect for a recent wedding I attended.
from Miami, FL on 6/10/2008
Good buy, but the ruffles do not have a hem, so I'm worried how they will hold up when washed.
from Concord, CA on 6/3/2008
I loved the color, cut and overall look of this dress. Unfortunately, the zipper didn't seem to work, so it was returned. I'm hoping to have a better experience with its replacement.
from Topeka, KS on 5/20/2008
I am a standard size 8 petite. I bought this dress for my son's beach wedding, but it was too tight around the bust/waistline. The color was beautifult and vibrant. It was difficult to find a solid color other than black or white in a halter-type dress. I also purchased another Chadwick's dress, which I ultimately chose to wear. It was less snug around the waist.

I loved this dress and hoped it would work for me, but as a D-cup with gravity having taken a toll, I couldn't make it work. Strapless bras don't usually work for me. I tried with this dress, but the dress bodice wasn't tight enough to keep the bra and girls in place. Next, I tried a halter bra, but the dress straps are too thin and not in the same place as a traditional halter so that didn't work either. Dress looked great on and fit well everywhere else.
from Texarkana, TX on 5/14/2008
Fits terrific and looks great and feels great. I ordered yellow, not too bright nor too pale.
It is linen...so wrinkles a bit, to be expected.
from Washington, DC on 5/13/2008
Purchased the petite size 2 as that is my true size and because they did not offer a regualr size 2. A 4 was the smallest on the regular scale. The petite size is shorter than I would like - just above the knee. I prefer the look in the picture - just below the knee.
from Republic, MO on 5/13/2008
I bought this dress in a 12P which is my normal size. But, it was too small. I got the Azure blue one and it is very bright & beautiful. I am going to send it back and see if I can get one in 14P.
from Highland Mills, NY on 5/9/2008
This dress is really cute on and would be great for a casual wedding, date, or special occasion! It is very flattering and the carnation color is beautiful and summery!

This dress is so beautiful, and it is even more beautiful in person. I plan to take it on my honeymoon, it wrinkles easily but that is the only drawback, and I am sure any hotel will have an iron, my finance loves it and so do I.
from Gainesville, FL on 4/26/2008
It was a very cute dress, but fit too small in the bust for me. I am 5'1" and 112 lbs, but have a naturally larger bust. I'll probably exchange and go up a size and have the waist taken in.
