"I love thus dress, its so comfortable, looks cute with a top underneath for cooler days and nights out. Lovely and airy on its own in this hot weather we are having. Sizing is slightly large, i'm a 12 uk and got a 12 but could have fitted in a 10 too."
"Usually on Disturbia, I need to size down from a US 16 to a 14, but here that was not the case. I originally ordered a 14, but couldn't even get the sides close enough to button over my chest. So I exchanged for a 16 and it's still honestly too tight, but I love it so much I am going to sew it permanently shut over the bust and squeeze into it with a compression bra. The embroidery is immaculate and the fabric is a sturdy linen with no lining so you don't get hot!"
"Fabric is great quality and it's overall beautiful. I wish the waist dropped slightly lower to hit more at the natural waistline which would be more flattering, but that may be a me thing. One big downfall I would say is with the sizing, there is a drastic difference when sizing up. I am not large chested and what I would say fits best was the 12, but take a deep breath or move wrong and the bands holding the buttons are stretched very quickly. Size up to the 14 and there is probably 2 inches on each side on the bust that could be taken in. Simply smocking the back would fix this problem and make the sizing a lot more forgiving."
"Really light material which wears well. I’ve washed it a few times and still looks new. Only real issue is that the button loops are elastic, so even though it fits well the loops look as though they’re stretching."
"Ordered this in my usual US 16, but was way too big. Exchanged for a US 14 and fits amazing! So happy with it. The length on it is great."
"Absolutely love this dress. Easy and effortless. It is a bit tight around the bust especially as a bigger chested person so if you have a larger chest i would recommend sizing up. Also it’s midi length but i am 5ft tall so it’s maxi length on me, hits right at my ankles"
"I loved this dress in theory, but unfortunately I think I just would never have worn it - the bodice ends very high up on the torso, even when the straps are fully lengthened, creating a sort of sack-shape for the skirt? Don't get me wrong, the embroidery is so pretty and the fabric would be great for summer (plus it has pockets!), but it just wasn't right on me unfortunately."
"The bands that secure the buttons closed are elasticated which means that if you have a larger chest, it just looks like you’re busting out. The chest section wasn’t tight to my body but the elastic was still stretched due to the weight of the fabric. Very odd design choice, nice quality but not for the bigger ladies"
"Gorgeous dress, I’ve had loads of compliments on it. Good length. It has pockets and which is a bonus. My only complaint with it is that after 3 wears, 2 buttons have fallen off and had to sewn back on. I vary between size 10-12. Originally for a size 10 and had to swap it as not enough room on the bust."
"Sadly too small and buttons were very loose. One broke off"
