Prosbeautiful, confortable, light weight
ConsPetite
I ordered the 6P in dark teal. It arrived promptly and in good condition. Unfortunately, it was too big in the waist and on top, although the description stated it ran a bit small. Also, this one had a major flaw in the stitching on the right side of the waist. The pleats had been pressed up instead of down, and then sewed in the side seam that way. I returned the 6P and requested the 4P.
It arrived promptly and fit perfectly. I love the color and fabric which has a beautiful irridescense to it. The stitiching on the side of this one is also slightly off, but is not really noticeable. I would advise anyone ordering this dress to inspect it carefully.
I also love the little snaps sewn into the shouldars to attach to bra straps that keep the top in place. Very useful for this style of dress. The fabric is light and comfortable. I am looking forward to wearing it as my mother of the bride dress at my daughter's wedding in Jamaica.

I have a long gown in purple that I purchased, the same style and I was very pleased with the way it fit my body shape received a lot of compliments, it was for my daughter's wedding, and I was running out of time. went on your website and found the perfect gown. Went back to the website, because I was looking for a holiday dress, and I found this one in Black, again the perfect fit. I love Adrianna Papell Formal Wear,and dressy dresses, I know I can always find something to fit my plus size, and there are not a whole lot of designers who cater to sizes 12 and up. Thank You Nordstrom for carrying her line.

This dress is gorgeous. When you compare it online to all the skin-tight, super short dresses out there, this ones shines. It is flattering and beautiful. A low enough neckline that you feel pretty and dressy without your bosom hanging out. The skirt offers room for movement (not too tight) but nicely shpaed so that it's becoming and sophisticated. It fits beautifully though the bust and torso -- very nicely made. The sleeves are sweet -- pretty but not too heavy.
This is a dress that would work well for any age. My daughter is 14 yrs and 5'9. The skirt is long enough that she can sit easily and is a flattering length. My daughter has a lovely figure, but is not a twig -- a size 14. I think it would be flattering for a fuller figure as well. This is a keeper.

Prosfun and flirty
ConsRegular
I was asked to be the matron on honor in a wedding and the only instructions the bride gave me was to order a navy blue dress. I ordered this dress and a long gown. I plan to wear the long gown because it looks more like a bridesmaid's dress. However, I LOVE this dress. It is fun, flirty, and flattering. The tiers of fabric hang really nicely. The detailing is fabulous. It is a perfect dress to wear to a wedding or cocktail party.
