Little Lies Mini Dress

I wanted to love this dress so much- it's been on my wishlist for months. However, while it fit perfectly around the bust and waist, the front of the dress was super tight across the thighs- but not super tight across the butt. There needed to be more material at the front of the dress- the image gives the impression that it is flowy, but this is not the case at all. I don't know if the dress I received was faulty, or if there was a design flaw: but the zip at the back of the dress did not lie flat when standing straight, and would bunch up- i don't think it was sewn into the dress properly. I've given it 2 stars, because the material was nice and the top half of the dress looked great- but the zip issue was very problematic and I returned the item. Please redesign this dress to fix the skirt and zip issue - i would repurchase if these issues were resolved with an updated version. It is also unfortunate that I needed to pay for the return label, when this wasn't just a change of mind purchase- this was a faulty item. This is the first item bought directly from belle & bloom that I needed to return (I have bought other dresses in this size that fit perfectly), so I was disappointed that Belle & Bloom charges for returns for faulty products.
