Great dress! I was happy to see that the collar is not as low as the picture suggests. This now on my list. Thanx!

lovely dress for sure, So lucky to be able to wear light summery clothes all year round. Your right the neck drape is flattering.

Well done - I love polka dots and navy blue. Lovely fabric - maybe not polka dots, but that's how it looks and it is so pretty.

I love this dress on you! Your fabric choices are so lively and work so well with your style. This dress is fantastic.

Dress looks great. I wanted to agree with you regarding the ease at the hips/waist, I made it up and found that there was a huge amount of ease and it did not suit my figure at all (I took in 4" on each side and looks a little better!!!).
