Beautifully made garment
Ive has a lot of compliments wearing this dress. It feels very retro, 80s throwback with the collar, but it's a classic style. The material is very high quality thick cotton. The covered buttons, hidden pockets and even two hidden buttons that support no gaping all speak of attention to detail. The length is long on me, above ankle, ( I'm only 5'1"), which I was hesitant about, and wondered if I should return or shorten - but I decided to go with it, and I'm glad it did, because the longer length works OK.
