Its a little bit shorter than what I thought it was going to be but it feels nice on. I have since ordered another dress but a maxi this time.

Such a flattering dress. I'm no stick figure... but this dress makes me feel like I look OK in it. It's comfy. The sleeves are great. It's a really lovely dress.

Love this dress. Wore it to a family dinner recently. The only problem was that it was still very long on me. I must be shrinking!! I took it up by about 7cms though and it is perfect now. Very comfortable fit on my apple shaped figure and fabric feels lovely on. The taupe coloured spots are not something I have worn previously... so I was pleasantly surprised to see how it looks on my now older body. Being quite grey haired now I guess my choice of colour in clothes can vary as well. Lots of compliments from family. I am now going to buy some black boots to wear with it in our cooler months here.

It’s a beautiful dress. I accidentally bought a size too big, but I decided to wear it anyway, as in winter I can wear tights under and a cardi over. Fixed! So pretty. I’ll order another in my size!

I now have 4 dresses and I love every single one. The fit is fabulous and they make me feel feminine, and are lovely and cool to wear. I would highly recommend the midi dresses to anyone. You won’t be disappointed

I love both of the dresses. I ironed them both before folding them and putting them into a small travel case and heading to Melbourne for the weekend. Once there, I hung both dresses and they were perfect to wear the next day without ironing. They were so cool, comfortable and relaxed to wear and I received a few lovely comments. Will buy more eventually.

This dress was an exchange from another style, which didn't suit my body shape. This dress is perfect for me. I'm after the same style now in a different colourway.

Store owner replied: Thank you Lesley for this great review. 😍🥰
Like all the other dresses I have purchased in this style fit is great, pockets are a must and the spot just lifts the dress from plain black. Teamed with a tan clutch and shoes looks fab.

Store owner replied: Amazing!! Thank you Pamela.😊
Love this style dress so comfortable to wear easy to care for, hangs lovely in all the right places. I have three in different fabric designs & colours now & get many compliments when I wear them. Just a word of caution when selecting sizes check the size measurements on each design as although the same style, sizes can vary, e.g. I have one in size 20 & one in size 18 both fit me the same feel comfortable to wear. Please keep this style in stock.

Bought to wear to a Christmas lunch in our “lovely” stinking hot humid Queensland summer. The dress fits perfectly and is light and airy I only own two dresses the other being bamboo and this one is very comfortable.

Dress arrived in quoted time. Fits beautifully. wasn't sure if it was the dark colour mmmm but felt not quite right. On displaying to daughter worked out it was the longer fuller sleave that made the dress see darker??? We adjusted the sleave length and transformed the look of dress incredibly. I'm a fair sewer but am getting a friend who's a bit more experienced, to alter length, fullness. Very happy.

This was the first time that I had bought a dress from Always Alice & it certainly won't be the last. My dress arrived within a few days & as soon as I saw it, I knew I'd love it. The fabric is so soft, the cut & style is superb, the dress has a beautiful flow. The colour is as pictured. Plus, it has pockets!! I am short & the dress is quite long on me & next time, I'll go down a size.

I love this dress. It took it in at the front and it's still baggy. It's quite loose fitting, so maybe buy in a smaller size.

I ordered a size down (12) after reading on your site that if I wanted it to fit as on your model, consider a size down. This was good advice, it is perfect
