"I purchased size XS. I'm 5'3, 108lbs, 32A, and size 24-25 in jeans. The ruffle on the dress is so cute. The dress feels very soft and nice. I love the material. It does not feel or look cheap. Despite the previous reviews on how short the dress is, I still purchased it in XS because it was the only size left. I agree that you should order a size up; a size small would have fit better on me in terms of length. I'll keep my dress and wear bike shorts under the dress. The dress falls 2inches under my butt so I prefer to wear it as a dress rather than a tunic. It's so much cuter as a dress! A belt with it looks even cuter! I am wearing the "BDG Tab Belt" in the pictures. :)"

Adorable with a belt!
(March 9, 2011)
"I saw this in the store and took a chance by getting a large when I am only 140 pounds but with a belt, it's look absolutely adorable. I am on the preppy side and with nice floral tights and cute knee high boots, the light blue and navy blue color look awesome! Can't wait to wear it in the summer. But it is a tiny bit short, but it is wearable. I'm 5'8" so that could be the problem :p"

"I have this dress in blue and found a great deal in the store and got one in black. The picture on the model doesnt do this piece justice. It fits and looks great. It looks good with a little belt or nobelt w/ leggings. Its a little short as a dress, but great for in the summer. Something comfortable that looks dressy."

"Great dress! I have this in black and it looks great with a brown belt. Although, I have to agree that this dress is a little short but it's a cute dress overall."

A little short
(January 4, 2011)
"This dress fits well, but it is short as other reviewers said. I have an XS, and I'm 5'2". It does cover me entirely, but for peace of mind I wear shorts or leggings underneath. The fabric is very thin and looks like silk; however it is polyester and a pain to clean. Otherwise, I'm happy with my purchase."

I love this dress!
(December 27, 2010)
"I have this in black and dark blue. THey're both beautiful! Beware though, they're a little short. But they can be really dressy, for a cocktail party or an event or just something you can wear everyday with a cardigan and flats. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Really beautiful and classic."

Cute, on the model
(December 22, 2010)
"This top/dress looked really cute in all the pictures but when I got it in the mail, it ran small, was much shorter than I had thought, and the fabric is equivalent to that of a really thin silk scarf. What a bummer!"
"I really don't think this dress is that great. I think I'm too tall for it (5'10) because it fits more like a tunic, I could never wear it without anything under it. I have it in the blue/teal color and I usually wear it layered with leggings and cardigans. This color is also see-thru so I would recommend wearing something under it like tights or leggings. I tried putting a belt over it once like the picture but it hangs funny and feels weird. I think I would like it better if it hit at the waist and I'm actually considering having the hem taken up. At least the ruffles are to die for!"

Cute
(December 1, 2010)
"Very Cute dress. I tried to get it in the store but they only had a small. I'm 5'8 130lbs and 34D so the small was to tight under my arms. I order the Medium and it fit perfect. Very cute for summer time or you can even put on leggings with a turtleneck and the dress and it would be adorable."

Decent Dress
(October 23, 2010)
"I bought the dress in teal in medium. I'm 5'8" 130 lbs 34B and I tried on the small to start with, and it fit, but the medium looked better. For one, the dress is a short. And I have long legs, which accentuate the shortness of the dress. I liked the ruffles but they sort of made the dress off balance, at least for me. The fabric wasn't too clingy or see through, but it looked like it would stain easily. It looked really nice with a thin belt, but it was too short for me to feel comfortable. I ended up returning the dress, even though I liked it."
"Very cute, but it sadly didn't fit my body. All the colors are really pretty. I usually wear a size small and I wear a 34C. The top was really tight on my chest and the dress was short on me(I'm 5'2)."

Perfect
(October 14, 2010)
"I am very much in LOVE with this dress. I bought it in the store in black. It doesnt really have hanger appeal but it is darling on.
I usually wear a size small but I had to go up a size in this particular dress but it fits perfectly. Also very versatile you can dress it up or down and its great for any occasion. And I adore the material
I wear this dress so much I am on here now going to buy another color!"

Pros: cute, classy
Cons: short, material
"100 lbs (45 kg), 5'2" (1.57cm) got the navy in xs.
I really like the cut of the dress and it looks cute (I prefer to wear it with a belt). I thought it would be work appropriate but even for a small person this dress was very short. Would recommend wearing thick tights/leggings just in case. I didn't particularly like the feel of the material either but it doesn't look as cheap as it feel imo."

Perfect casual dress - that CAN be glammed up
(September 7, 2010)
"I usually wear a S/M, but this is perfect as a M; it allows you to belt and blouse it, if you'd like OR wear it straight.
Looks great with funky heels or flats. Very versatile. The turquoise is fabulous... so is the purple periwinkle sort of color.
I'm very, very happy and I might buy more colors in this same style! Lol"

Very flattering
(September 7, 2010)
"I'm usually a size 4 so in between small and medium, but definitely needed this dress in a medium because of the length even though I am short (5'4). Very flattering cut on the top and not too baggy on the bottom. Looks best with a skinny belt. Bought in blue, green, and purple!"

won't last very long...
(August 31, 2010)
"the dress is adorable, boxy but not overwhelming so you can either belt or not. the colors are really cute, especially the green and the dark blue-- except the material is horrible. I bought the green dress at the store and already even before getting the tag off already had little oil spots on it and it's pretty obvious that the dress will stain really easily and won't come off. Also, it is relatively on the shorter side-- i'm 115 lbs and 5'4" and it's slightly on the dangerous side in terms of length. i'm thinking about returning it, i don't think it's worth 60 dollars for the material... too bad, because it's really cute!"

cute but not for me
(August 30, 2010)
"i liked this dress and ordered it for a vacation. however, being size 10/12 with an hourglass body type meant it stretched out around my butt and was baggier on top. not cute on me at all. i returned it."
