I felt the colors were a bit brighter than I expected, but my husband liked it, so I kept it. I liked the fit and feel of this dress very much. I hate things that cling and am very happy to say this dress doesn't. I tend to wear my clothes on the looser side, so I ordered an XL and this fit the bill. Didn't look like a sack, but didn't show what I don't want shown. I'm 5'5" and it hit at the very top of my knee. Just throwing it out there....I wish it came in a solid black.
