This is a beautiful dress; however, the color is darker than what is shown in the website. It’s more of a dusty purple. Buy a size smaller than you normally would. I think it was very roomy.Very niceI have purchased this dress in 3 different colors, so obviously I like it. My only wish is that the fabrics on all three was as great as on the navy. The black and purple are lighter weight and don't hang as nicely, or look quite as rich. Still, they are very flattering to the fuller figure if you choose the correct size. They seem quite true to size, but don't get a smaller size if you want a floaty fit.It is larger than I expected, but the material is beautiful and it was inexpensive enough that I am going to have it fitted for myself.Perfect for packing. Easy to dress up or down. I have this dress in several colors. With and without short sleeves. This company sizes runs very large. Before you order make sure to measure yourself and follow the companies sizes chart. When in doubt go a size smaller.The material was sift and perfect color but the arm holes were too large.
