i absolutely love this! it is soooo gorgeous and way prettier in person. it's not the softest material but i don't even care. i usually size up with my clothing whether i think i'm bigger than i am or like a tad looser fitted clothing. i ordered a medium and it fit perfectly around the hip but when pulled up it was a bit loose, not form fitting at all. i'll be wearing a shirt or other dress over it when it is pulled up because it's not very flattering alone. i am a 27" waste, 112 lb, and 34b. my hips are definitely wider than up around my ribs so i don't know if this should've fit both but was looser on top for me or what. either way i would size up 1 size if you'd like to wear it lower on your hips. i'm 5'5" and when worm on my hips it hit the floor and potentially will drag a little bit. to fix that i'll probably pull the skirt higher up and roll it over to still fit low on my hips but not drag as much. the upper material is thin enough to not make me look wider in doing so, so rolling it over is a good solution. i ordered the tea and the contrasting colors of the actual skirt and the trim is gorgeous! i love it so much i'm going to order it in black.

Wear it as a skirt with bike shorts underneath. One of the crop tops look good with it. Thank you, Free People for great clothing!

Rated 4 out of 5Â by cdbrand Lovely as a skirt
My 18 yr old daughter has this dress in the ivory color. She normally wears a size small, but she had to size up to a medium. Even then, the top is tight. More importantly, the cut of the top, when worn as a dress is just not very attractive. It looks unfinished and ill conceived.
However, my daughter is small and short enough (5'2") that she can wear this dress as a skirt. The stretchy top, worn low over her hips, creates a super short mini that covers her bottom and deals with the sheerness issue. The effect of the cascading lace and ruffles is lovely and and this piece rides that perfect FP line: provocative given the uber short skirt and semi sheer lace, but romantic and feminine at the same time.
Wearing the dress this way is not going to work for everyone. Taller girls are likely going to find the top too short for adequate coverage when worn as a skirt over the hips. Curvier girls might find the fit too form fitting for comfort. Still, petite girls might try this as a skirt if they don't like the look of it as a dress.

runs alittle small in the smocking. doesn't give alot of stretch. this is great basic for layering. i bought all the colors. like it better as a dress than a skirt

Rated 2 out of 5Â by FPRich Not worth it!
I was planning to order this dress, but then I found it at one of the FP stores. I tried the L, but the elastic top was too tight and did not stretch much. The rest of the body fits well and the lace looks nice. The slip though is completely sheer. I tried the tea color, don't know how it works for other colors. I am not too crazy about the bottom hem coloring as well. In all not worth the price for me. Might work for others, but not for me.

Rated 3 out of 5Â by p1gp3n too tight, too sheer
i bought this to wear under other see-through slips. i sized up, and it still fits tight around the chest as a dress. as with some of the other intimate pieces, the "lined with mesh" part is kinda silly because it's still see-through and i'd have to wear yet something else under this layering piece. the top part is also too long so it doesn't work with my other sheer pieces, as the seam from this is very visible.

Rated 3 out of 5Â by sararash Pretty but lots of fabric
I usually order small in slips, but i chose a medium in this! very pretty and love the detailing. I ordered the black, but it didn't fit right in the chest area on me!
Must wear with a slip under it though!
