This dress is an absolute winner. Fun, flattering and works for all sorts of occasions. I am tall and usually find dresses way too short in the body - so I feel for petite customers for whom this dress doesn't work - but for me it does! Bravissimo - what about different lengths in your clothing? The skirt flares enough to be soft, fun and feminine, but is still flatteringly structured. The stripes start between the bottom of the bust and the top of the waist, which is a lovely look. The fabric also has enough weight to it to sit and hang well. I am totally in love with this dress, and will probably buy another one, especially if you bring it out in green, burgundy or pink (hint hint).

I had to send this back. Would have been a lovely shape if it had been several inches shorter in the body, but did not suit my petite figure & clung to my hips! Also the material was a bit thinner than I was expecting at Bravissimo.

So sad to have to return this. The dress itself is lovely, but, as so often, the proportions are all wrong if you are petite. I'm 5'2" and this dress is too long in the body for me. So instead of it skimming over my stomach and hips in a flattering way, the tightest part of the dress which is meant to be the waist ends up stretched over my stomach. I wish Bravissimo would consider doing a petite version of some of their dresses - there are a lot of us petite but curvy types about, desperate for clothes that flatter us.

Sophisticated and comfortable. Looks great with either shoes, ankle or knee high boots.

I LOVE this dress! The fabric is a tight, structured knit, that gives the dress a dressier/more formal feel than a cozy knit, and makes it more versatile. Still very pleasant on the skin. Great hem and sleeve length, perfect cut and so comfortable. I was sceptical about the stripes but they actually define my waist, rather than emphasize my hips. It works for so many occasions, in less than a month I've worn it to everything from a job interview and dinners to casual weekend shopping. First wash ok, I hope the quality keeps in the long run.

Nice dress and looks smart. Only gave 4 overall as the hem insists on turning over. Tried ironing flat and it still won't stay down. Navy version last year didn't do this.

Comfy, elegant and great shape. Felt really good in this dress all day long. Its good to have something with a slightly textured material and a little thicker for winter.

A fabulous fit and it makes me feel fabulous! I love that it covers the cleavage whilst still showing curves, so it's great for the office as well as after work. Please please more colours!
