Beautiful and exotic
I love this piece. I have an extremely pear-shaped body. Very small bust line and large hips/belly area. I am very sensitive about dresses clinging to my bottom area and drawing attention to it. In my true size 1x, it does cling a little to my tummy, but the sheer beauty of this dress outweighs any of that. If you are self-conscious of your body, don't let the slinky maxi nature of it scare you away, like it almost did me. I thought about marking it a 4 because of the clingy nature, but why should I mark the dress down for my insecurities about my body.

Nice Summer Maxi
I am 5' 7.5" and at 36-38 DD. I ordered a large but QVC is kind enough to exchange it for a medium for me. The large fits loosely across the bustline but needs to be more fitted through the middle and hips. I normaly order a large, but definitely a medium in this dress.

REALLY PRETTY!!!
I too purchased this dress, and I love it!! It does run big, but to me all QVC clothes run big. I am 5'8" with 38D chest, normally I wear a L/XL in stores, but however, can wear a medium in most QVC tops, so I did purchase the medium and it fit nicely. I have no hips so it does seem a little large around the hip area, but I like that because I carry most of my weight in the middle, so it tends to hide my bulge!! I think the dress is beautiful and comfy. I plan on wearing it to an upcoming wedding, so thank you for a BEAUTIFUL dress!!

Huge middle, and very dull colors
I too was very disappointed when I opened this dress. I am a tall person, and fairly slender but no it does not look good on me either. The dress is not shaped well, made for a large person. But that is not the most noticeable problem. On the website the colors have been enhanced greatly. I bought the blue and the Teal dress and neither one look anything like the picture. The Teal dress looks like it has bright turquoise in the center, but it is very drab looking grayish teal.. None of the colors are bright on it, they all look very bad. This looks like it is an old faded dress. I had such high hopes from the pictures used to sell this dress, and for the high price!, not worth $66.00!

Bought 2 colors
First bought the teal in a 1x alittle big but love it and will take it in a bit on the sides.
Sent for the gray in XL which is a better fit. Keeping both.

Returning
When I first removed this dress from the package, I thought, 'Wow...what a beautiful color!' (I purchased the blue multi). When I held the dress up, I thought it looked like a long rectangle...no shape whatsoever. I was hoping that it would look better on, but it didn't. I'm 5' 7.5" and wear a size 10-12. I ordered a medium. the dress fit from the hips down, and the chest upwards, but there was all of this extra, gaping material at the waist. I thought I might be able to have it tailored, but then thought, why should I have to go through all of that. I'll be returning.

Thankful..
I received this dress a couple of days ago and tried it on to make sure it would fit ok. The dress fit beautifully and I was so happy about the length which means I do not have to him the dress. Well last night I decided to show my husband the dress and his reaction brought me to tears. He told me how beautiful I looked in the dress which completely made my day. So for that I am thankful to you for making this for me.

Perfect Maxi Dress!
ANOTHER BOB MACKIE HIT! For me, this maxi dress could not be better. I ordered my normal QVC size in teal and it is everything I hoped it would be and more.

High hopes
This was shapeless..a big rectangle of knit fabric. The center color (blue) isn't a clear lovely sky blue but a muted, dulled down, greyed blue. The light panel in the middle with the darker v's top and bottom made my middle look huge. I think it would be better on a taller, thinner person (I'm 5'4 and a size 12/14).

I Love This Dress and My Husband Loves This Dress!
I ordered the gray in small when I first found it on-line. While I could use it in XS, I am keeping this one without question. The fabric is great and I love that it goes with both turquoise and coral jewelry. I will be back for more if they come back in S/XS.
