I bought that dress in green in size 14/16 , based on their chart....and\\ it was toooo big....maybe because the fabric being stretchy contributes to that.... I reordered in black, size 12, and guess what... I'm a 5'4, and that dress is clearly for amazon tall women...I love the dress, because is so well done, but the empire waist doesn't look like an empire waist on me LOL it goes over the belly...and the V neck...oh boy, is way down LOL.. So, I think I will find a seamstress to adjust the dress ,.Maybe the seamstress will have to take out the sleeves, take off the shoulders and then.....and sew the sleeves back on..I don't know....But I love the dress., what can I do...I live out in the country, so I buy clothing online...and I love Igigi workmanship, choice of fabric and the fact that is mostly done in the US.... I am thinking of buying the green version too.... OH I wish they made dresses for petities,....I hope the dress can be adjusted Have anyone tried do adjust a dress? Monica Monica HI gals..

The shoes though...not so much. I'd like to see a vintage inspired closed toe with it, and a similarly vintage clutch. I got this great linen shirt-dress from Lane Bryant and I'm trying not to panic over the fact that the hem hits me mid calf. I feel so exposed! $15 though, I couldn't pass it up.

I'm quite sure it won't <i>hold them up</i>, per se, but I think it should cover a relatively decent amount of them (and a plunge bra), judging by other Igigi stuff I've tried on.
