Just arrived today and I might have to wear this every day 'til I DIE. That might be a bit obsessive, but that's how perfect this dress is. The fabric is a wee bit stetchy, so it smooths over my Covid kilos, and all-over flatters like mad. It's too thick for Summer here in Texas, but I will wear it the rest of the year 'til it falls apart. (But it appears well made, so that should be a long time from now!) Sizing is consistent with all my Collectif clothing. (And, when I shed these pounds, it will still fit me; I need the shoulders. The self-belt [which is actually too long], will go smaller too!)
And it matches my favorite vintage tablecloth; the pattern was based on a terrific vintage design. (Also nice: the red is brighter and clearer than the photo. I feared it would be more brick/wine, but it's a perfect lipstick red.)
