Just don't look the same on me
I waited and waited for this dress. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it. The material looked so flowy and beautiful. When I first put it on I was so excited. Once it was on, "not so much". The weight of the bottom is so heavy. If you tighten the waist the top takes on a different look and doesn't look right. When I looked in the full length mirror I didn't see the dress i wanted. It looked absolutely terrible on me. I had to send it back.

Adorable, very flattering fit & a great value....
The color (RED) , the fabric, the simple style, the fit , the versatility, and the price of this
little summer dress is great ! Definitely recommend ....I bought the S (148 lbs) and could go for the XS, as a point of reference....very cute dress.

Pretty Dress
This style of this dress should be flattering on almost every body type, but please beware that it does run very large. To get a more appropriate fit, you should order at least one size down. You also should wear a camisole underneath, as the arm holes are quite generous and the cowl neck can slip down a bit here and there. I like the fabric very much and definitely feel like it's a great addition to my wardrobe. I have it in red and it is classic yet bright to fit this year's vibrant colors.

Somewhat disappointed
The dress is just okay. I'm rather particular. I just wasn't impressed with the fabric, and the hem hangs very unevenly. I plan to return it.

A bit dated
Fabric is wonderful, but dress a bit dated for me...just not my tpe...neck line not flattering...very basic...I tried the Red, I think Black for business would be good..just not a casual. light dress...cannot be dressed down... for formal or work it would be good

Very Disappointing
The dress was terribly wrinkled when I opened the package, which didn't help make a positive impression when I tried it on. Also didn't bode well were I to pack it for a trip. The uneven hem, even if intentional, simply looked like poor quality construction. I bought the red, and it just looked like I was wearing a baggy, wrinkled red sack. I'm a big fan of QVC fashion, but this item just didn't make the grade. I returned it immediately.

Mixed
The fabric is wonderful and the skirt lays/flows beautifully BUT the top is not good at all. The cut on the arms is not flattering and the drape is awkward. I love the skirt so much I debated cutting the top off but in the end had to return it. Disappointing but would definitely consider other items from this line.

LBD
Great LBD style with fun elements of a flowy skirt and drawstring waist. I am a HUGE fan of the Rachel Pally's regular line so when she did a lower priced line for QVC I was ALL over it! Fabric is a beautiful jersey and dress hits to just about knee length (I'm 5'5"). I do have to agree with the other reviewers about the armholes - they do come down a little lower than usual, so if you dont wear a cardigan your bra may show slightly. Definitely not a dealbreaker for me though. Can't wait to see more great RP for QVC items!

Perfect LBD!
Obviously I purchased the black and it is really perfect and easy to wear for work with a jacket or cardigan and nearly any occasion. I'm considering the red in this too. I'm 5'8', plus size, and I don't like to wear really short dresses. The hem is purposely uneven, the length is perfect. It hits right around the knee.

Beautiful and versatile dress !
I ordered the red dress and plan to wear it for the office with a navy or black jacket , with flip flops on vacation and with heels and hoop earrings for dress-up. I thought it ran true-to size, but I gave it four stars because on the hangar the armholes are stretched way down by the weight of the fabric. I have folded it at the waist and clipped with a skirt hangar to prevent it from stretching out the top and armhole area.

Great dress!!
I usually don't order knee length dresses, because they're usually too short for my 5'10" frame, but this one fits perfect!! I ordered my normal size (XL), and it fits great, but I probably could have gone down a size, but I like the loose fit with a belt. The dress comes right below my knee. It's so femine and comfortable. I would love more colors.

Gorgeous Dress!!
I bought this in red and it looks great. i get lots of compliments when i wear it. It looks very girly and feminine which i liked :) I hope to see more colors for the summer and more in shorter length as well.
