I like the style, but P2 was too small from waist down, I returned it, and I will like to get P4 instead. Thank you.

I was happy when I tried on the dress, it's very flattering and emphasizes all the right areas. The only problem is the top, it fits very wide, at least on me and on the model it's tapered. If I'd ordered a size down (6, my normal size) then everything else would have been too small. I ordered the 8, so it does run small but be aware that the shoulders/chest area may not fit as pictured.

The thing I like most is the simplicity of the design. Very easy to accessorize for day or evening. One thing I really don't like is the fabric. It's a little shiny.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I returned the original dress as the fit was very small. I am now returning the second one which I ordered in a larger size. This dress would be really great were it cut a little larger - it seems to be cut as a junior size rather than a misses size. For that reason, I'll not order a third time.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a classic and sexy look. The fit is flattering at the waist and brings out the best in the feminine physique, one thing is apparent, the dress is tighter in the derriere, and therefore more appropriate for going out than the office, unless you plan to heat up the office when you walk out of the room!

I returned the original and ordered a size larger as it is cut a little small, but overall, this is a perfect all around dress - very suitible for almost any occasion, depending on accessories worn with it. The color is one of my personal favorites. The fabric is great for everyday use.

This dress has a great cut at the neckline. It's flattering to the fit and can be dressed up or down. I bought the grey and the black one. The black one depending on the jewelry I wear can make it really dressy or a blazer and clunky work jewelry makes it very professional. Sandals and a short jacket or shawls does the trick too! It's very versatile.
