Fantabulous dress! Bow is fixable.
First, let's address the elephant in the room, shall we? Let's face it: that bow in the back is not cool -- not in my opinion, anyway. And I've seen others comment on it too. Well, I have good news: you can wrap the sash around and it ties in the front very nicely (or side, or wherever you want it). It looks very flattering re-tied, so don't let the back bow stop you from buying this awesome dress.
Now, for the really good part...the color is awesome!! I got he emerald one and love it. Material is great. Has a bit of shimmer to it (tiny bit) but makes it look nicer quality.
The cut overall is flattering and well-fitting. But that said, I ordered a 4 (all they had) and I'm normally about a size 2,). But the 4 fits perfectly, so it *might* run a bit small. I say "might" because I do have a larger chest size so unless a fabric has stretch to it (which this doesn't have much, if any) than I often do need to order a size up.
Length: this is on the shorter side so beware. I'm *very* petite (5') and it's even shorter on me. It's not short as in mini, but it's definitely not a knee length dress, even for petites. Just FYI.
Bottom line: I LOVE this dress! Looks amazing with some statement jewelry that I got and will dress it up with for a cocktail party. Or would work great for a more casual event too. If I wore dresses more often, I'd buy it in every color.

A size smaller than other color!
I purchased the Navy size 8, fit perfect! Super versatile. Great dress alone with sandals, super cute with white tennis shoes and works dressed up with blazer/heels!! So I felt confident buying the Hot Pink size 8 on final sale clearance/no returns. Unfortunately the Hot Pink 8 is a size smaller !!!! Is there no quality control in manufacturing?
No way to return! So out the money and will have to give away. Very disappointing!!

Perfect Go-To Dress
I wanted a comfortable vibrant dress for a pre-wedding errand day and this was a comfortable and flattering dress. I loved the fit, the detail on the cap sleeves, the just-right length, and the smooth and quiet material.
What I did not anticipate is how marvelous the shape and color is on this dress. I was stopped constantly all day long, told how great the color was, complimented on the detail in the belt, told I looked amazing...by total strangers! I must say the color story looks perfect on olive toned skin and a curvy figure and it was the best purchase of my month after that day!

So flattering!
I usually don't wear dresses. I have a larger frame and find dresses to be not so flattering. This one fits me perfectly and I feel comfortable and slim in it! The sash falls in a perfect spot to make you look like you have a small frame. It's comfortable and you can wear a normal bra! You can dress it up or down. The color is great too, I don't have many green items in my wardrobe. Will purchase Eliza J again!

Beautiful
I wore this dress to a wedding tonight and it was a huge hit. I am apple shape and it hid all the bad stuff. I went up a size and it was lovely and not too baggy due to the belt. The belt hits at my slimmest part of my abdomen and it's super flattering. I had many compliments onto the great (purple) color.
I'm 5'6" tall about 140 pounds and normally wear a size ten. For some reason I tried a 12 and loved the way it looked so I didn't even try on my true size.

This is a darling dress -- definitely runs big. I had to re-order in a size down. Unfortunately the second one was also big. I realize it is a blousy bodice, but I felt top heavy in this dress (which I definitely am not). Loved the color, loved the belt, loved the picture; but I had to return this dress. I wish that it had fit me better -- really liked it.
