Measurements: Total length = 33″, armpit to armpit = 16″, waist = 12″, shoulder width = 11.5″

I had high hopes for this dress based on the reviews and measurements but there a few issues.

Likes: I love the blush/peach color with the contrast eyelash black lace trim. It’s so dainty and feminine.  The length is perfect on someone my height.  The dress is partially lined on the bottom which is rare for F21 dresses. You can wear nude panties and not have to worry about sheerness.  I like that the waist is elasticized with belt loops and a detachable tonal self-tie belt. I am going to try switching out the belt and see how it looks.


Dislikes: The armholes are big (see side view of dress above).  There is additional fabric bunching out on the sides and above the waistline.

Verdict: I had a merchandise credit I had to get rid of and this is the best thing I have found recently. I am going to see if my Mom can fix some of the issues and make it look better.

  5. I love the sweet color too, and could see the top of the dress being a top. You are right that the arm holes are big. And lots of extra fabric at waist. Can’t wait to see if mom can work her magic! PS Hope you’re having fun with the family!

  7. I’m not a huge fan of how the dress looks right now, but maybe with the proper alterations, it would look better.

    Hope you’re having fun on your trip!

  14. continuously i used to read smaller articles that
    as well clear their motive, and that is also happening with
    this article which I am reading here.

  15. I’m not sure why but this site is loading incredibly slow for me.
    Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end?
    I’ll check back later and see if the problem
    still exists.

    A fantastic read. I’ll definitely be back.
