Was a bit nervous on size and feel but pleasantly surprised. It's soft and a generous fit I am a curvy 18. It fits nicely not tight anywhere and looks a bit like velvet Devore from a distance but is a quality jersey type material. I was concerned about wearing* a slip but didn't need to. Would suit smart office small wedding or Christmas do with the right accessories. I got it when they had 10% off so bargain! And I washed it at 30 degrees with no issue😀
