I just received this dress and feel like Santa came early! Another reviewer mentioned that the print isn't as bright as on the screen so I ordered it. She is right but I find the darker tones blend more beautifully and make the contrasting cuff more subtle.. Also you can wear with the cuff down as a full length sleeve and I like it that way too. There is some gorgeous detailing that I can now see, including lace edging on the skirt slit. The fabric is soft. I am 5'7 and wear an XL and it falls a little lower than on the model. Because of the lace and the contrast at the hem it might be challenging to take it up. There are a couple of other dresses in this gorgeous pattern which might work for a shorter person. Overall a truly elegant dress I will wear for years, especially to chase the winter blahs away.

Just received this dress, pretty but much darker in colour than the one portrayed, so I'm a bit disappointed but I'll keep it. Fits perfectly.
