I love the "V" in the back of this dress; I think it makes the entire dress. I'm not usually a fan of peplum, but this dress is subtle enough that I like it. I'm usually between a 2 and a 4 in The Limited dresses, and the 4 fit perfectly, so it runs similarly to most other dresses from The Limited I have purchased (which is quite a few!).
This dress is super cute...on the hanger, just not on me. I am 5'4" and 123lbs. I have an hourglass figure. I tried this on because I love the peplum look. It fit very tight and didn't sit right. The next size up was too big. So disappointing because it is an adorable dress.
This is a pretty dress, but I tried my typical size and it was pretty tight. The material had no give, and I didn't think the peplum was that flattering. It's well made, but the fit was quite off.
Typically, I'm a huge fan of anything peplum. I find it's very flattering and just has a certain lady like quality that I love. When I saw this dress was on sale, I knew I wanted to try it on. I already have the black peplum knit dress that was available late summer but thought I would prefer this blend of material since I'm not a huge fan of knit for longetivity. I grabbed my standard size 4 and I was a little disappointed with the fit. It's not bad, I just don't think the peplum part of the dress hits in the most flattering spot on the body. In my opinion, it should hit a tad lower and flare just a bit more. Combine that with the high neckline and this just wasn't that flattering on me. The quality is good and I'm sure on body types this looks great but since I already had a black peplum dress, I decided to pass this one up, even at the sale price. Recommend trying on first if you're able.

it fit nice
I liked the dress. It was a nice style and fit great even for a curvy lady. However, it would be hard to wear in the fall/winter. Even with a bolero sweater, it did not look right with the peplum bottom.

Great day to evening dress
This dress is very stylish, yet conservative enough for the office. The best part is the back, the low V gives it a little something extra. Very flattering dress!

Great LBD
I love this LBD. It's very conservative in terms of how much skin shows, but the peplum makes it a teeny bit flirty and fun. It's also very flattering. It's a teeny bit big in the waist and hips for me - I wonder if I should've sized down. My only complaint is that the peplum got creased pretty badly during shipping, so I will have to iron it or possibly have it dry cleaned before I wear it.
This dress is a nice basic piece and is well-made; however, as another reviewer said, I thought that the peplum was oddly placed. I have a long torso, and the peplum fell above my waistline, making the dress look shapeless at the bottom. It might fit better on someone with different proportions. I liked it because it's a nice alternative to a traditional suit and would go nicely under a jacket.

pretty but boxy
i wanted to like this dress- it's very simple & classic. looks great on the model. but the fit was very boxy on me; the peplum made me look like i had no waist, making for an unflattering silhouette. so it was sent back. this dress design is a great idea, but i think the peplum may be too flat.
