Length:

Bottom Line:

Comments:
This dress is very light and pretty, but the bodice has no structure and slips off the shoulder. It seemed to me to be a little over sized and so I have returned it to get a smaller size. I intend to put a press stud or two in the back to hold it together

Comments:
Oh, I had such hopes for this dress! But the description doesn't tell you that the bodice is crossed in back as well as front--leading to a lack of structure to keep the darn thing on your shoulders. It's so loose I don't think even a larger bust (mine is average) would help. Maybe if you had very broad shoulders, but otherwise even a cami underneath will be of little help. Too bad, because I like Pura Vida designs.

It's a shame that the rear view of this dress isn't shown... the wrap bodice in front also wraps in the back, making for nothing to hold the shoulders up on this dress! If you have LONG,FULL hair you might be able to pin it... not something I was willing to mess with, since there was a random purple ink 'drip' on the dress I tried on and returned. Too bad, cuz' it looks like a nice little vintage piece.

This would be a great dress if it were constructed in a fabric that had a nice drape. The thin cotton was not flattering to me or the dress.

It might work for a teen during the spring/summer but it really is very poor fabric - think of something you would get at a discount teen store at a supermall. The center is a cheap plastic looking "jewel".

It's a pretty dress. I like the elastic waist. The top is a little odd, I don't feel it quite fits well enough that the sleeves aren't going to fall down (I suggest wearing something light under it).
