The Charles Henry brand owes its name to a man who earned his living manufacturing clothing in Tennessee. Its classic contemporary style comes from Henry's fashion savant granddaughter, Meredith Fisher, who launched her first line with no formal training at age 17. Today, her dresses, rompers and sweet prints are runway-inspired yet relevant, even after trends fade.

No waistline at all. Fits like a sack.
Doesn't fit at all like it does in the picture. I ordered according to the size chart. The hips fit just fine but the rest of it was HUGE. The dress does not have any waistline like it shows on the model. It's almost completely parallel at the sides which makes the top quite large. I put it on and the shoulders kept falling down. I had considered having it tailored but the dress has no darts at the waistline so it would be a waste of time, I think. I was not happy with the quality of the material, either. It will be returned.

Gorgeous and classy dress
Absolutely love this dress. Needed a simple black dress for a formal event and this one fit the bill perfectly. I'm a size L (10-12) and despite the dress fitting perfectly, it definitely doesn't hang like it does on the model - it is a little more fitted IRL. Not an issue, just something to note. Also, the top part doesn't hang like it does in the photo. Despite these inconsistencies, I love this dress and will wear it many times!

Not for girls with hips/butt
This dress quality is what you pay for it. Not amazing, but not bad. The dress is definitely meant for someone straighter shaped. I am not sure it is a-line, either. It was snug in my hips/butt, but very large on the top (even though I have a full bustline!) I think this is meant for a taller, broader-athletic built with small hips, or someone who is pencil thin. Definitely not for anyone pear shaped! Sadly have to send back. It fits like a shift dress, not an a-line dress.

A bit too short
The teal color is beautiful, and the dress is so comfortable and feels secure enough to hold itself up. Fit like a glove. Unfortunately, I felt it was just a bit too short to wear as a guest to a wedding. Would be perfect for a resort! .. just wasn't what I was looking for, and I don't travel to resorts enough for the cost, so I'm returning it. For reference, I'm 5'8", 130lbs, 34C and bought the XS.

Favoriate OTS dress!
Love this dress! Purchased for an upcoming wedding and I'm very excited to wear. Can easily be dressed up or down. Surprisingly fitted; most OTS dresses can make me look like I'm wearing a sack and this was very flattering. Love the design of the off the shoulder! I've found a lot of those dresses limit movement; not the case here! I can lift my arms and the dress does not move. Purchased a S - fits well! I'm 5'4 135. Thinking of getting multiples in other colors. Great purchase for the price!

Great dress, but not right for me.
Dress looks great on. Quality is about what you would expect from a dress for less that $100. I purchased for a wedding, but after trying it on, I worried that I would be adjusting it all night (either pulling it up or pulling it down). I have broader shoulders, so the look wasn't the most flattering for me. Would be a great dress for a function where you're not going to be dancing or moving around much. I would have kept it if I had had another reason to wear it. I'm normally a 6 or 8 in dresses and the medium fit perfectly.

Perfect party dress
Everyone should have this dress in their closet. Very flattering and not too fitted over mid section and thighs. Length is perfect at just above knees. I am 5'4, 130 lbs and xsmall fit perfectly. Ruffle makes hips appear narrower, it's a keeper.

Great LBD!
I really like this style...classy and sassy! Length is perfect and the ruffle allows you to go bra-less if desired. Order smaller size!! I ordered a medium, normally an 8/10, and returned for a small. Quality is good and material is flattering.

Sassy & sexy dress!
I love this dress, I purchased it in the off white. The feel & the fit is very nice & comfy. This dress is great for casual or dressy wear. Looks great with or without accessories. I wish Nordstrom had the pink dress in my size... I will continue to watch website fir my size. Fit is nice!
