I wanted to love this dress, and generally have good luck with this kind of style. The color (navy) and material is beautiful, and well-made. Unfortunately, the armholes were tight around my shoulders and scrunched up under my armpits (gahh! I hate that!!), while the bust/hips were plenty roomy. With this predicament, sizing up or down in either direction wouldn't have helped. I'm 5'7", 130 lbs and normally wear a size 2-4, but have this problem frequently--it drives me crazy that so many styles seem to be cut for toothpick arms. Y'all, my arms are not big. Please fix this.

I just ordered this dress and was so pleased when it arrived. I'm pretty petite but pear shaped and other dresses I've ordered from Brass have been too tight across my butt and hips, so I was worried this would be too but it's not! This cut is loose but tailored--I travel a ton for a work and I know I'll be wearing this all the time. I am going to have to get it tailored, though--I'm small chested (32/34a) the v-neck neckline cuts way too low for me to be able to work. Would love to see this dress with other necklines!

I wore this for the first time to a wedding and I can't wait to wear it again. It is really comfortable and I got so many compliments on it. Definitely recommend!

I tried a medium (way too small), extra large (way to big) and large (just didn’t look good) and didn’t find one that fit well or that I liked enough for the money. I chose the longer option because others mentioned that the regular was too short. I regret not trying the regular length. I’m 5 foot 8 and the dress just didn’t look great on me. Otherwise the fabric and quality was great.

I wore this to a business meeting and got several compliments in the hallway afterward. I wore this on a weekend and felt gorgeous and comfortable. To me, this is the ultimate wear-anywhere dress. It fits beautifully, is flattering and forgiving, and can be topped with boots and a sweater on colder days or not on warmer ones. The versatility is simply amazing.
