    I am 5 "4 and about 110 lbs and the dress fits perfect. It is figure flattering. It came to just above the knee on me. Color is great and material is nice. I would highly recommend it to anyone. It is a 4 season dress and it's a great price for the quality!

    This is a very nice dress, but a little too dressy for my occasion.

    This dress is so comfortable. fits well and love the shape and material. It is a classic day to dinner dress. The teal color is a bit darker than it shows online, but still great. wish it came in more colors! It does fit close to the body so you might want to consider sizing up if you are between sizes and/or don't want a snug fit.

    I just tried this dress on and I really like it. I'm looking forward to wearing it out to dinner or to church. The sleeves are the perfect length, to cover my not-so-attractive upper arms. It's a little shorter than I expected, but I still like it. The neckline and twist in the front are figure-flattering. A nice dress for the end of summer and the first of fall.

    I typically run between an 8 and 10, but this 10 was too snug through the hips/rear. It's cute, though!

    Wow! I am not young like the model in the picture but this is really a flattering dress! The color is more teal and I am so impressed that I wish I could get it in about two other colors. It is comfortable and very much the best size for me. It will go anywhere!

    Picked it from the store and wanted to try it on, so I went up to Petite Focus. Luckily, one of the best salesladies, Cecilia recommended a bigger size. She was right!You still need to wear a slip underneath, very obvious panty line from behind...good fit with a larger size.

    This is the first time I take a dress out of the box and it needs no adjustments. That felt so wonderful. I wanted to make an impression on someone I am attracted to and the dress took me to that place. The dress arrived before expected. Everything went as I wanted. Compliments galore. It really fit me perfectly. Thank you Donna Ricco!

    I love everything about the dress, especially the styling and the coral color. I ordered a size up, based on previous reviews, and this was good advice. The only problem I had was that this dress revealed more cleavage than I am comfortable with--would not wear to work or church. So, back it went. I exchanged it for Donna Ricco's drape front dress, which is just as pretty and comfortable but does not show too much cleavage.

    The photo shows a pretty burnt orange color called "coral". In fact, this dress is almost neon orange! I am not exaggerating.Although I have tan/olive skin and look good in orange, this dress is way too eye-popping bright for a professional environment.Too bad, because the cut is really beautiful.

    This is an amazingly flattering dress. I'm curvy and this hugs your curves, but not in a clingy-tacky manner. I hate my upper arms and the 3/4 sleeves are perfect. I'm 5'5" and it hits just above the knee. I love how the fabric drapes and the coral color is amazing against a summer tan. I will be ordering in another color - the fit is just too perfect to only have one.

    I was looking for a dress to wear to my high school reunion. I have trolled and looked all summer and this dress is very flattering. Thanks to all of you for your reviews--they helped a lot. I found the neckline to be very flattering and the length of the dress (above the knee) to be great! I'm a size 12 and, hey, I'm sure I look to be a size 10 at least.

    I really wanted to keep this dress...I loved it in the picture though. Despite following the size guidelines this dress seems to run small in the bust. The blue is a beautiful color and the style of the dress is outstanding though. The dress was returned but I didn't order another in a size up because then the dress would have hung on my body (larger in the bust and smaller and straight in the hips).

    I bought this dress for my daughter and she states that it's a good fit and comfortable; She wears a 12 but I ordered a 14 due to her breast size.

    Really fantastic fit. I am a true petite with a long torso. This regular size 4 is a great fit. It is low cut enough to be subtle without revealing too much. The torso length is perfect for me, the length is a bit too long for my leg length but nothing some tailoring won't resolve. The fabric is beautifully cut and the lining gives it a professionally tailored hang which shows my silhouette perfectly.I will buy the red in the same style. Love this designer and design. Worth the money

    I am either a 2 or 4, following the size chart on this one I ordered a 4 and it is perfect. Its a comfy dress that looks beautiful and easily hides the remaining belly I have since my pregnancy. I love it!

    It has been a long time since I bought a basic little black dress. I have a few occasions to dress up a bit over the holidays so I went looking - first in some stores and then online. I took a chance on the Donna Ricco dress because I loved the twist look and it did not look too form fitting. The dress fits so well -- just enough shape without clinging to every inch of my mid section. It is very flattering! It is lined, so no need for a slip. Well made and the feel of the fabric is very nice -- not cheap.

    This is a beautiful dress; the color is gorgeous and the style is perfect. However, the size was not perfect. A 10 fit snugly but well on the top, but was too tight across the bottom, even though it is stretchy and looked fine from the front. The dress was a little too short for my comfort, which was made worse by the tight fit across my bottom.I returned it, sadly, and didn't have time to reorder a size larger.

    Flattering dress. The ruching hides figure flaw that many woman have. Deep v neck, but good coverage for modesty.

    Ordered this dress for a holiday party and it was perfect. Fit nicely, no wrinkles, nice fabric and was very comfortable. It's that LBD that can be used for many occasions. Glad I found it!

    I was looking for a dress that was comfortable, flattering and cute. Didn't want an old lady dress. Wore it to a holiday party and dressed it up. I'm 5'5" and it was too long so I did have it taken up a full hem, which was about 2 inches. The model pictured must be tall because it was longer on me. A great dress and I know I will get a lot of wear out of it.

    I bought this dress for a business casual event- my first since having a new baby. It fit in all the right places and was forgiving to my new (and somewhat bigger) waistline. Since it is low cut, I paired it with a scarf to have a little less skin showing up top. It was perfect.

    This is a great dress to have in your closet. I know it will become a go-to for me.

    This dress is great for camoflaging a little bit of a tummy but it's not great from behind. It looks like it's fairly flowy on the model, which was not my experience. It seems true to size which is nice but the color is DEFINITELY coral and not more orange the way it looks on the computer. It could be nice on someone who's size 12 or under but 14 and up I would steer clear.
