    This dress was not available in a medium which I normally wear but it did come in a small. I keep putting in the cart then taking out, thinking it would be way too small as one reviewer mentioned. As I have a bit of a belly I was really worried about this size. Ended up giving it a go since National says there would be no problems returning.

    Now that I have received it and its fits perfectly and is ultra comfortable and is loose over the belly and hips, I am thrilled with my purchase. So glad I added to the cart.

    This dress will be perfect for our hot, humid Houston summers. The fabric is feather light but doesn't show through at all. Dreamy is a great way to describe this summer casual dress. I only wish y'all had more in other pretty prints and colors.

    I ordered this dress, and had to return it because it was too big overall. I ordered a Medium, which I usually wear, but in this more fitted style dress, I need a Medium Petite, it's just too large in the armholes, the torso length - I don't mind the length of the skirt itself, I love long lightweight dresses in the summer - but this one, I just couldn't keep due to fit overall. Otherwise, I found the fabric delightfully lightweight, I have no problems with it, and had it been available in a petite size, I would have kept it, happily.

    As I said above, it is lovely except for two flaws; the waistline is too long, and the collar is too wide. It is pretty material.

                    This sundress was purchased with some trepidation because at this time of the year, I didn't know if it was truly a sundress or something heavier like a jumper. Much to my delight, it is a sundress made of the softest material and it is quite comfortable. I had to iron it the first time I washed it but hopefully I won't have to again.

                            I ordered this dress, and had to return it because it was too big overall. I ordered a Medium, which I usually wear, but in this more fitted style dress, I need a Medium Petite, it's just too large in the armholes, the torso length - I don't mind the length of the skirt itself, I love long lightweight dresses in the summer - but this one, I just couldn't keep due to fit overall. Otherwise, I found the fabric delightfully lightweight, I have no problems with it, and had it been available in a petite size, I would have kept it, happily.

                                Light comfortable cool fabric. A nice change to wearing slacks all day. Go shopping, walking or just sitting in front porch on a hot day.

                                This dress is very pretty but the fabric is extremely lightweight.
