Penny: It fit perfectly and felt great. A nice little swing to the skirt which has slit pockets! I wore this to a (surprise) 75th birthday party where everyone was required to wear black. The style and semi-formal look fit right in. Truly love this dress and hope to have the opportunity to wear it again (and again),.

GalavernaGalaverna: I'm 5 ft 1 and average around 100 lbs. The XS was a little loose, especially around the shoulders/neck. (Just to give an idea, this dress has two zippers, one in the back designed to put the dress on/off and a zipper in front for styling adjustments... I often find myself completely forgetting about the back zipper and slipping out of this dress with just the shorter front zipper. :-P)
I love the style of the dress though, and the pockets, so I usually just wear a scarf to camouflage the looseness on top. However, I don't know if the XS would fit a less busty petite person...
I also am not crazy about polyester dresses and this would be way too warm and heavy a dress for summer. It's a comfortable, stretchy fabric, however, and the XS could easily fit me even if I gained 5-10 lbs.
The criss-cross design at the waist is very flattering and I will likely buy other versions in the future, despite preferring cotton over synthetic materials.

I updated this review with photos and just want to add that I get compliments on this dress every time I wear it. I even have a friend who is a seamstress and who remarked on how well made it is. I love it so much that...

L. EngelL. Engel: Dress fits perfectly. Material is nice and thick. It also has pockets! Big fan of how you can zip the collar up and down to whatever suits you; looks great all the way up and flatters me zipped halfway down, too. Belt is also nice quality.

On me the pockets did gap a bit on the side, but that's because I carry my weight in my backside and it pulled them a bit. That didn't bother me too much, and if I sized up I think then the dress wouldn't fit well all over. Even with the pockets I feel like the pin stripes combined with the dress's style is very forgiving for my heavier backside and a bit of a tummy.
SIZE: I have this in Medium, my usual size, and it fits really well. I like the length. I wear a Medium in dresses, tops, and leggings. For reference I'm 5'4" tall, 36B bust, about 180#, and carry my weight in my backside.
MATERIAL: Heavier weight material, well made. Traveled well - I rolled it to pack it and it had zero wrinkles.
