"well it's not bad, but the color isn't a soft rosey- white pink, but a purplish-gray pink. the tone is very gray, which is not flattering on me! also i don't really like the fit. the sleeves are quite loose and the waist part is quite loose. runs large. the length of the dress would be nice for something less covered at the neck-line/sleeves, but for something that is that loose and covered everywhere else, it is way too long....so, nothing special"

"Ok so I bought the black last year at full price, loved it, still don't have anywhere to wear it. I saw the pink in the store and never dared to go near it wondering it might wash out my pale skin BUT as soon as I saw Kate Middleton got a pastel pink outfit this week TAILORED to look like this pink dress to meet Kings and Queens I JUMPED on it!!..finally tried it on and dare I say I look a bit like KM in this!!! love FP!!"

Gorgeous but...

"I love this dress, it's super comfy and girly! But, I have to admit, it runs big and is quite short in the back if you've got a bit of a bum.
Make sure you size down if you want arms and bak to fit better, but if you want the length to be longer, stay your size, though the top area may be baggy."

"I ordered this dress in the pink and absolutely love it! I find the first image a bit of a misrepresentation though.. It is darker, which you can see in the other photos and is not very full. The second pic is much more accurate as far as what is looks like.
You will need to have/buy an adhesive bra though. I found that without one on you could see what I didn't want seen... With an adhesive bra it looks great! The detailing on the back looks great in the pink against my skin. I found the fit very flattering. I am 5'4" though and it is fairly short on me, so for someone tall this dress might be a bit too short.
Overall, a great addition! I ordered this with the vintage rose tights and am wearing them together to a chilly spring wedding."

Couldn't be happier!

"I absolutely love this dress... After spending weeks going back and forth deciding to get this dress I finally did.. Knowing that I'd regret it if it sold out. I am 5'7 118 lbs and I got the XS and it fits perfectly. I have light skin so after reading the reviews on the pink color I was skeptical.. Although I wanted something for summer and black wasn't what I was looking for. The pink is just perfect, even for light skin. The material is soft, warm but breathable, and overall it's really well made. The first picture is a bit deceiving.. The color and the shape are not that way, instead the dress falls fairly straight."

beautiful, but disappointed in the site.
4.4.2012- 
"firstly let me say that this dress is lovely. i was so excited to get it and when it came in the mail it was everything i thought it would be. i was concerned about the black comments, thinking that maybe it would be very light. but it matched the black dress pictures exactly. im not sure if maybe i just got a good dye batch, or if its cause i was expecting lighter from the reviews, or if they updated the model pictures. cause i of all people know that Free People is infamous for misrepresenting their products in pictures. the dress is very comfortable, not too warm for a thermal dress, which is nice. not to say that its cold either, its just right. the lace is beautiful and it fits as it does on the models. maybe 3 to 4 inches above a natural waist line, depending on the person. my measurements are 35-36 bust, 27-28 waist, 37-38 hips. usually i go for mediums to accommodate the curves but i decided on a small for this and it fits perfectly. the only reason this got a 4 star instead of a 5 is because the lace was already damaged in several spots when it arrived. i was disappointed but fine, because i thought i'd just exchange it for an undamaged one. but alas, all the size S's for the black color were gone. a risk you take when ordering sale items i guess. i just wish that they'd give you a note or something in the package, stating that this item was already returned and thats why its damaged or something (which is what i assumed of the situation because there's no way it ripped in shipping, not the way they packed it). so either, i got a previously returned item and no one bothered to discount it for being damaged, or they just send me an item that someone ripped before packing. either an employee or a customer depending on if it was warehouse or a store, either way. im still pretty miffed about it. really nice dress either way. just not alot of faith in this company."

Disappointing
3.21.2012- 
"I loved this dress when I first saw it so I decided to order it online. According to the measurements listed, I decided to opt for the Medium, Small is usually my norm with FP. OMG it was HUGE! I looked like I had a potato sack on, no curves, nothing! So i decided to order the small instead and it fit a little better but still, kinda too boxy. I like dresses to outline my waist and this doesnt do that because im short (5'4"), the waist hem hits at my hips...idk. Beautiful dress, not going to lie, but definitely not made for me."
