Absolutely beautiful! Could not be happier!

Absolutely beautiful! Could not be happier! Have owned it less than two weeks and have worn it so many times already: out to dinner, to a retirement party, and just running errands. I love it. Totally comfortable and looks polished but not fussy. Wish I could buy four more in different colors and never have to wear anything else but this to work.

i live in this dress

becky custom made me a dress by shortening the existing pattern to fit my smaller frame. it is comfortable, flattering perfection and i wear it constantly. i really should buy a second (and third!?) so i can just live in them for all of eternity.

So flattering & adaptable

Love this dress so much! It's a flattering and comfortable cut, and just like the cliche, it goes from day to night effortlessly. Although for me that's from desk to couch, from kitchen to karaoke. As "basic" as it is, I get a ton of compliments, too.
