I just received this dress. It's soft, but a bit warm, even though it has short sleeves. The length is just slightly shorter than I prefer, but I'm also 5'10". I don't like that the slits come higher than the knee. I think it looks tacky. The workmanship is also not the greatest. There are several places where the stitching is not so good. Despite not being entirely thrilled with it, I will be keeping this dress. I stitched the slits so that they only open right below the knee. It still looks silly because it comes to a point at the side of the knee where the skirt is supposed to begin instead of flowing straight down. Either way, it's still comfortable. I'm normally a M/L and I ordered a medium, which fits just fine. 36D, 30" waist, 43" hips. Kind of wish I got the L for the extra .75" of length.
