Strapless Madras Dress in Pink Plaid Madras

I love, love this dress. It f only it loved me back! Though I refuse to return it, I will need to get a little tailoring to have it fit properly. I order a size 4 and returned as it was a bit tight in the chest area. Went up to a size 6 and it fits better . I think it runs a bit small. I sugegest ordering a size bigger if you are larger through the chest then the skirt portion will lay properly. (Posted on 4/4/12)

I was originally trying for one of the darker madras prints, but they were all sold out in my size. I opted for the pink not really thinking that I would like it that much. The dress is very cute and perfect for a spring/summer day. It's lined and made well. The patchwork stitching doesn't bunch or look bulky. It is true to size. The only negative is that there is no hook and eye closure at the top of the zipper. With a strapless dress, that is a definite necessity. (Posted on 3/19/12)
