Beautiful Design...But Inconsistencies (and "red" not red! Green is jade)

This dress has a lot of gorgeous potential --- great lines, heavy fabric that flows beautifully, sleeves that add interest but still remain timeless, great neckline and overall shape. I was so excited that I'd found a classic, versatile dress that could be worn anywhere from an office to the theatre to a dinner party.

I tried both the size 6 and size 8 since I've liked both before in the Calvin Klein brand (5'6, 128lbs, full C cup) and the 8 fit perfectly. (Be warned busty ladies, the top doesn't have room to spare).

However, despite the color "watermelon" looking like the perfect red in the photos, but it is actually a bright coral pink! I've attached a picture...when compared it to a deep poinsettia red, and it looks almost like lipstick pink, but in person, it also had serious coral undertones (think hibiscus). This was problematic for me as 1) I wanted red as an all-seasons wardrobe element rather than something that was very summer-y, and 2) the coral undertones didn't flatter me.

So, disappointed in the color, I re-purchased it in the green "meadow", which is actually a lovely shade of jade green, very rich and lovely. I was again excited that I'd found the perfect dress...except this time, the same size 8 no longer fit! It was an entirely different dress/fit/shape, too much fabric and too long in all the wrong the places (neckline, waist, etc). Obviously, strange quality control issues happen, but it was incredibly disappointing.

All in all, it CAN be a fabulous dress, but between the sizing and color inconsistencies (and after 4 dresses!), I just returned everything and gave up the ghost.

So glad I ordered this dress! It is ultra flattering even for a less than perfect figure! The fabric is similar to a crepe so is thicker than many dresses I considered that were Jersey or knit fabrics which cling and show every imperfection! It can easily be dressed up, look professional for work, or even look more casual with different shoes and accessories. I usually wear a medium or large in tops and large in pants and the size twelve fit me perfectly.

I returned the dress. It was too long and I didn't like the sleeves. The material was nice, however.

Thick, high quality material but too long and the sleeves were too poofy
