This dress is truly a keeper! The silhouette is very flattering for me (short and busty) and the color is stunning. My only complaint is that it is a bit tight around the armholes. Not tight enough to restrict movement, but tight enough that I am aware of it. Others may very well not have this problem.
I usually wear a 0-2 but lately it has been more of a 2. So, as not knowing this brand, I ordered a 4 as well as a 2. The 4 was way to big and the 2 fit very nicely everywhere except the shoulder area. It was very tight on both upper arms. If I were to drive in it, let's just say I would have lost circulation.
It has very complementary horizontal pleating. Although anything horizontal is usually a "stay away" word in my book when it comes to clothing this is actually what makes the dress SO VERY FLATTERING.
I did not keep either the 2 or 4 however, because I also ordered another similar dress and the material was more lightweight and casual which was what Inwas looking for.
This is a perfect dress for a wedding or a formal business event.

I bought this dress in black for a wedding -- a great choice. I have a bust, a bit of a tummy and hips, but although this dress is fitted, it looked very good and somehow seemed to skim over my body. It is also comfortable, as it is made of pretty stretch material. My husband (who does not usually notice my clothes) said it was the best dress he'd ever seen me in.

Lovely dress! Form fitting AND forgiving of my flaws. I'm a size 12. Ordered a 12. Perfect fit. I'm 5'10" and the length fell just a bit higher on me than the model in the picture. The color is vivid without being too jarringly blue. The fabric has nice all around stretch and I can walk, sit and dance in comfort. No binding. And va va va voom--sexy silhouette while still tasteful.
