Perfect....almost

    Best Uses

      I had been wanting to get this dress for months and finally took the plunge. It is a beautiful dress. The v-neck and elbow length sleeves were all heavenly. It looked perfect through the waist and all the way down....except, it ended about 2 inches too high. The dress is beautiful and classic, and the full skirt just doesn't look right above my knees. It isn't a modesty issue, just a final look issue. With the style it would have been perfect if it hit at the knee. I am between sizes and got an 8R, and I am between 5'4" and 5'5", so not tall. I would have reordered in a 6L, but they were out.

      Too bad......It was so close to perfect.

      I wanted this dress to work out since I first saw it, but alas, the fit does not flatter my hourglass shape. I wear a 10 but this felt too big and the higher waist made it less shapely.

        I love this dress more than anything else in my wardrobe. It is fabulous! I get compliments from everyone I meet when I wear it. It makes me feel like a movie star. I bought a second Amelie dress in different color combination. Thumbs WAY up!

          I can be honest here in the. I own this dress in two colors (navy and the coral summer version). I think I have a problem. But the dress is so flattering! I am pretty busty and I worried about the pattern, but it looks great. Its slimming and wonderful and I'm marrying it later this summer.

                This is a fun and unique dress for almost any occasion. I normally wear a 4 long, which wasn't available, so i got a 6 regular and it fits great. It's very flattering.

                  I am 5'4 and 140+, so I was skeptical about buying a dress that looked so gorgeous on the model would look even half way decent on me. SO pleasantly surprised; the fit is amazing, I don't look pregnant, and the material is heaven. I didn't even realize when I bought it that it's a wool/cotton blend. Followed the washing instructions and it came out perfect. I've worn it to an afternoon wedding, religious functions, and dinner date. Worked well for all occasions. It isn't too hot for the muggy spring season of the south so far, and I can see pairing it with tights for winter down here. Makes my stocky short frame look like I have a real body. A++ dress!
