“Beautiful, Lovely, Sweet”

I?m a lean 5?8?. My dress size is 10 for my broad shoulders and my skirt size is 6 for my narrow hips. I ordered this batik dress in large and it?s a perfect fit for me. I have room in the hips which is needed in order to use the size pockets. I?m so happy with this dress I ordered another one.

“I love This Dress”

The dress is lovely, the fabric is beautiful and it is well made. However, consider how you would like to dress to fit before selecting a size. I am 58 and wear a 6-8 and because the medium was on backorder I ordered the large. I wanted a relaxed fit (like the item is pictured), and the large is perfect. Beautiful work!

“As described, runs large”

The kaftan was as described. Colorful flowers. I usually wear a large in Novica shifts and kimonos. This large was true to size, closer to a 14, and the pockets are very deep.
