It is more like a midi-length dress on me because I’m 5'9" but I couldn’t be more pleased with the color, texture, and fit of the dress! It’s so beautiful and honestly I’m shocked at how quality the material is. It doesn’t feel thin or cheap, and the color is such a rich and vibrant green. I’m obsessed with it!" —J Heck
