Beautiful!
/PostedDecember 17, 2010
"I fell in love with this dress! Very flattering fit, and great colors. I bought the navy, but they're both nice.
Fits TTS or a little big. If you're in between sizes, size down. It hit me just above the knees and I'm 5'8."

Beautiful Dress!
/PostedDecember 17, 2010
Pros: perfect fit!, great quality!
"This dress is just as beautiful as it looks!
The quality is excellent...a beautiful silk. It has a lining but is still lightweight...perfect for the spring/summer.
The fit is also excellent. I am 5'1, 100 lbs and I ordered a size 0. It fits perfectly around the bust area. It falls right at my knee, and I think I will keep it there.
One thing: the trim appears white in the photograph but is actually a silver color, but still pretty.
The sash is not attached to the dress. It is separate, which I also liked."

Flattering and flowy
/PostedAugust 29, 2011
"This sale buy took me by surprise. I got the striped one and it is gorgeous. The skirt is a flowy a-line, nice thick waist tie, and I found the neckline easily adjustable to my bust. The skirt height is short. I am petite and it was at my knee. I think the polka dotted option is a little longer."

Top portion may run large
/PostedJune 15, 2011
Pros: flattering cut
Cons: top too big
"I tried this on in the multi, size 10...I am 6'0" 155lbs, usual size 8 or 10. In dresses I usually opt for a 10 to get the extra length. This dress is very falttering on...cinches in just the right place for a slimming effect and the straps are adjustable which helps with a long torso like mine. The top portion was just too large for me...I am a 36 C. I could't fill it out. I do not think the size 8 would zip up since the 10 just barely did (side zip which I struggle with). Overall, very cute if it works for you."

Great Dress for Small Chest
/PostedJune 10, 2011
"For my height, this dress was a really great length. It came just below my knee for my 5"8 frame. The 12 which is what I normally wear in G of S fit fine except the cleveage area. The buttons were pulling all the way over. If I had gone up to the 14, it would have been baggy everywhere else. I don't think I would have wanted to alter the dress at that price. The plum color is amazing. Possible sale pricing."

Perfect
/PostedJune 5, 2011
Pros: design, comfort, wearable, easy to accessorize
Cons: poor quality, expensive
"I wore this dress to my older brother's graduation and it was perfect. I am very tall so I have a hard time finding a dress that is long enough to look proportional, yet short enough to look age appropriate. This dress does that wonderfully. The only reason why I didn't give this 5 stars was that after about 20 minutes of wearing it I noticed that the slip was tearing away from the piping underneath. I wish it was better quality."

A classic with updated features
/PostedJune 2, 2011
Pros: silky material, drapes well, flattering fit for petites
Cons: a bit delicate, top buttons gap open
"I got this in black with white polka-dots. Has a nautical feel. Love the swing and drape of the fabric, and the way the belt can be tied in many different ways. Very flattering, but have to adjust at the top just right, or else the buttons on the bodice gap open. Material is nice and silky, but also a bit delicate. Will have to handle with care."

Great Purchase
/PostedJune 2, 2011
Pros: good fit, love the color/pattern
Cons: opening between the buttons, choosing the right bra
"A great dress. The neckline and open front between the buttons is a bit low for the occasion I planned on wearing the dress to. The fit is very flattering so I decided to keep the dress for another occasion."

Understated sexy dress
/PostedMay 26, 2011
Pros: high quality and flattering cut
Cons: front is too low-needs adjustment before wearing
"I purchased the polka dot dress. It's a very ladylike dress, yet the open front and neck tie make it very sexy. This dress is a bit tricky. I'm 5'2", 34C bust. I tried size 4 and it fits well but the front was very low cut and my cleavage was shown in a very unflattering way. Then my Anthro consultant (thank you!) untied the back straps and pulled them closer and made it tighter, and it works! I love this dress. The silk makes the dress very elegant, and I think the price is great for a quality dress like that. I'm going to wear it for my date this weekend."

Cute Dress
/PostedMay 26, 2011
Pros: pattern, material, fits tts
Cons: buttons gape in the front, complicated halter straps
"When I saw this dress on the rack in the stripe multi-color pattern I thought it was adorable. When I tried it on, however, I didn't find it as flattering. My biggest complaints about this dress were the complicated halter straps that goes through the sleeves and kept getting tangled and the fact that even though the dress fit perfectly in my normal size, the buttons gaped slightly in the front showing my bra. Overall, I thought the pattern was adorable and the concept was great, but on it just didn't do it for me. I would recommend others at least try this dress, but it is a pass for me personally."

What happened with this 2nd round of colors?
/PostedMay 24, 2011
"I tried on the blue version of this ages ago and it was love. My normal size 2 fit perfectly, although I could have sized down to a 0 if I had wanted it tighter across the chest. I tried several of these new colors on yesterday and the area below the bust DROOPS -- it looks awful. This is horribly disappointing since the first round of colors fit so differently in my experience! Guess I will hold out hope for a popback of the original. A shame, because the new colors are beautiful."

Gaps in the front leave little to the imagination
/PostedMay 23, 2011
Pros: styling
Cons: gap that shows the world my breasts
"Super cute dress. Great material with nice piping detail. It definitely has that pinup sort of vibe. The dress can be adjusted for a custom fit so make sure you play with the tie at the neck.
Everyone in the dressing room from customers to the Anthro personal shopper thought it looked great on me.
Unfortunately, the buttons on the front gap so much that everyone got a full view of the girls. I'm a 36D so this may not be a problem for others who have a more moderate bust line. I wish they had thought this through and sown the front shut. I could take it to a tailor and have it done.
I'll think about it."

Not enough chest coverage for me
/PostedMay 15, 2011
"This new purple color that was recently added is totally gorgeous! I am glad I did not grab this dress in coral or navy which were available earlier, although I was somewhat tempted. I think the purple one is the prettiest of the three. This silk dress feels and looks expensive and classy. I loved the way it draped and flowed around me. 2 complaints though -- 1. I was wearing a regular bra (which would not be an option with this dress) and, I swear, about half of it showed on the front and under arms. In addition, the buttons on the front also had openings between them, so I really don't know what type of bra would work with this dress. The kind that has very little fabric, apparently, but when you are a 34DD like I am, that's unrealistic. I could go braless, I suppose, but I don't think I'd feel comfortable. The second dislike was that this dress is a tad too long for me, and the contract trim on the bottom does not lend itself to hemming. But, I still liked it a lot! I may need to revisit it and bring a couple of strapless bras along to see if I can make it all work. Taller ladies with smaller busts, I think this dress would be a hit on you!"

Pretty dress for smaller bust
/PostedApril 10, 2011
Pros: beautiful color feel and drape, flattering at the waist
"I originally saw this dress in the store months ago and recently purchased online. I should have tried on in the store. It's a beautiful dress and great color (I got the orange/red). I am 5'4", 140 lbs, 36C, 38 in hips and 28 in waist. I got the dress in a 6. It fit amazingly well everywhere except up front in the bust. There was enough material but it still pulled leaving gaps between the buttons. I have a bit of a muscular upper back but it did not pull through there. Just right at the buttons, so I returned. As it was not tight, I am not sure going up a size would do much except make it sloppy and the material is so fine I am not sure I would trust a tailor I did not know well :-("

Sad but true
/PostedMarch 29, 2011
Pros: great neckline color and waist definition
Cons: does not fit well on large bust., sash ties a little too high.
"This is a beautiful dress! The trim is gray, not white, but still beautiful and the dress is a vibrant red/orange, true to the picture. The dress fits nicely and has a light, airy feel to it. However, I am 32D and the ruffles on the front of the dress combined with a large bust did not flatter my figure and the buttons did not lay well on the chest. However, I highly recommend this dress for everyone with a smaller bust! I am so sad I had to return it."

"This dress fits TTS. I sometimes have to go up to a 4 because of my bust, but the 2 was perfect despite a 34C bra size. I thought that the waist tie made the dress puff out in a way that was unflattering, but I'm sure that not everyone will have this problem.
The dress is well-made; I can see why a lot of people like it."

very slimming
/PostedJanuary 23, 2011
Pros: perfect fit for hourglass types
Cons: front ruffles didn't work for me
"I loved how slimming this dress was, and how well it was designed to cover any issues you might have with the dreaded bra bulge. The waistline hit me at my narrowest part and did amazing things for my extreme hourglass figure. Unfortunately I couldn't get over the white piped ruffles along the front...they fell very asymmetrically and I felt that it made the top look sloppy on me. I wish the same style was available without the "wing ruffles"...I'd buy a bunch in different colours."
