I have been dying to make this dress work. I originally bought it in my regular size 4 in the red. I wasn't impressed with the red color. It felt dull and faded compared to the pictures, and it was a little big in the bodice. I sent it back and bought both colors in a size 2. Again, I don't love the...
I purchased this online in red. I normally wear a size 10-12 (L) but lately even order a medium in BR dresses since I have narrow shoulders. I am busty though. The red dress I ordered not fit by a long shot and had to return. They did not have any in store to try on at the time for size referenc...
These dresses run smaller than the ones from last season. I bought the same size and the bust is so tight. I returned it. So sad I really wanted to keep it in the mustard yellow.

Bust is so small in proportion to the rest of the dress, a little stretch would also be nice in these types of dresses.
Just look at my pictures! for reference: I'm a true hourglass. 5.6" and 160 pounds. Bust 38", waist 29", hips 38". I'm wearing size 8 on this pictures, however, I ordered size 6 in dark blue and mustard because that is my usual size when I'm not this bloated. I'll wear these dresses FOREVER!

Love this dress so comfortable and stylish
So pretty on. TTS. In true BR fashion, this is such a well made and flattering dress. The cut is perfect and the pockets are a huge plus. I purchased the yellow, which is a subtle mustard yellow. I paired it with the Saguaro cactus scarf from BR which I twisted and tied in front of my neck. The dress can be dressed up or down.
I have this dress in five colors (three from last season) so needless to say I love it. I will say, the sizing isn't perfectly consistent as I have a size 14 in all 5 and some are a bit more snug than others (5'3" 180lb). I love that the buttons in the front are not functional because I love the look of button front things but as a 38 D they almost always gape open for me. This dress is super flattering on my curvy figure and as others have mentioned the fully adjustable straps are convenient. I ordered the yellow and navy this year. The yellow is more of a mustard (almost slightly green tinted) which I actually love but just be aware it's a little more muted than in the photos.
Beautiful dress, I am a 4-6, I purchased a 6- and I could not breathe in the chest area- I was so squished- so purchased the next size up (8), if that doesn't work out then just going to return it.

Very easy to adjust! Love that the straps can be adjusted from the back with the straps themselves—not the awkward slider that usually comes with dresses for adjustment. Fits well and zips up in the back, so no risk of buttons 'revealing' in the front.

Perfect fit, great style, easy to wear during the day or dress up for the evening. Very flattering sillouete.
I purchased this online in red. I normally wear a size 10-12 (L) but lately even order a medium in BR dresses since I have narrow shoulders. I am busty though. The red dress I ordered not fit by a long shot and had to return. They did not have any in store to try on at the time for size reference so I left disappointed. A month later I see the yellow one in store and not even the 14 fit. They didn't have a 16 for me to try on but I liked everything about it. Now , if I decide to get the 16 there will be way too much fabric at the bottom. This dress is perfect for someone with a smaller chest for sure but sadly just didn't work for me.
