I love the fabric! This is four stars for the color and the fabric which is unique fun and dressy too. I actually bought this for a pretty important event but (here is the but) the fit is strange. I typically wear a six but that size was ginormous around the waist and could practically fit into a two. I got a four for comfort, but the zipper bunches and doesn't lay flat and it just isn't cut particularly well. It is also very long, even in the 4. So not petite or even under 5 foot 5 friendly to me, unless hemmed by several inches. So I don't know. It is still sitting here. Is the fabric worth me keeping it? Probably not? But I can see this being amazing on the right body.

Perfect bridal shower Spring dress
PostedApril 9, 2015
At first I didn't think I could rock a floral print. But then I tried this dress on and i changed my mind right away. It was perfect for my bridal shower a few weeks ago, and I got a lot of compliments. Loved the details on this dress. Laser cut shapes throughout are beautiful, material is nice, perfect length (I'm 5'9 size 14/16) and the 14 fit great.

Perfect Spring Dress!

Proslovely floral, vibrant
I bought this dress last weekend in the store (Triple Points!). Being someone who loves saturated colors, I was immediately attracted to this dress. The other reviewer is correct, the picture on the website is not accurate; the colors are way more vibrant. My understanding is that the scuba fabric takes dyes very well. There is also a lovely cut-out detail amongst the flowers of the print that is only possible with a non-fraying fabric like scuba. The fit was great; I am long-waisted so it is possible that this dress will not work on a short-waisted lady. I really loved the neckline; it is very feminine. This dress will be best in the cooler late spring and early summer months as scuba fabric is a bit heavy. The lining is a cream, off-white knit that will keep your undergarments concealed. The model in the picture is probably crazy-tall; at 5 ft. 6 inches this hem is just above my knees. A fitter who happened to be in the dressing rooms pronounced it a perfect fit and length!

Lately, Nordstrom has been been taking photos in ultra bright lighting, so the colors look light in the item listing. This dress is darker than it appears. The waist line is lower so if your belly isn't flat or you are just bloated, this dress will be unflattering given the stretchiness of the material. The mix of colors looks unattractive in person. It is going to be returned.
