Flattering Fit
This dress is very flattering and versatile in that it can be worn with or without the jacket. The gored skirt is flowy but tapered enough at the waist for a nice, slim fit. While it may be a bit too formal to wear as a wedding guest, I will probably keep it to have on hand should a formal event arise in the future. I have come to the realization that it is time consuming to shop online, especially for petite-sized formal wear.

Not What I Expected
The description and image of this dress lead me to believe that it was more lavender and silver when in fact, its color is liver. It does nothing for my complexion and unfortunately works with very few complexions. If you naturally have a lot of silver in your complexion, like those beautiful women with the long, silver manes and crystal blue eyes, this color could be flattering. The bodice fits horribly, weighing down my breasts and not fitting properly around my waist. I ordered 3 different sizes and none of them fit, each one poorly made in a different area. The dress is straight down and flares at the bottom. Therefore, YOU need to be straight up and down. The length of the dress is made for a tall woman in addition to being made for a straight up and down woman. I'm 5'5 and the length of the skirt made my legs look ridiculously short, and dumpy. So, if you are 5'9, 125 pounds, straight up and down with long silvery hair and crystal blue eyes, this dress is for you. Otherwise, don't bother.

more brown than pewter
more brown. Not grey enough to be called "pewter" so it won't work for me. However, I am almost 70 and it is a flattering fit. covers the stuff that needs to be covered. I am 5'3; ordered a petite. It is a little longer than mid calf. I am a size 8.

True to size for mature woman
I am 41" in the bust, 37" in the waist, 41" in the hips, and 5foot4inches tall. the 14petite fit me very well. The sequins are not as thickly placed on the fabric as they look in the photo, but they are fine. Made well enough. length is good, below my knees. I am about 70 years old, so ok style for the price. It is a very dark navy, almost black.

Wore for my son's wedding
I live in a remote area with little to no access to formal wear except on-line. Nordstrom was very patient as I tried on dress after dress and finally found "the one" for my son's wedding. The dress was comfortable and had a nice swishy skirt. I liked the fit and the sequins were just right for a Vegas wedding or any formal occasion.

Beautiful, classic dress.
I love this dress. It is a classic style with a very flattering fit. It runs true to size, maybe even a bit generous. I purchased it for my son's wedding. I cannot find anything to fault about the two piece outfit!
