petite dresses - reviews

Great ...
I continue to be impressed with the quality of the items that I purchase from BR and this ... no exception. Wrap dresses either look great or sloppy depending on how well they are made, and I think this one is excellent quality and looks fantastic. I bought the purple color and it is beautiful and will work for winter, spring and fall for many occasions. I am 5'3'' and 118 lbs and the XS petite fit me perfectly. The length is just right on me, so I think that it might be a bit too long one someone who is really petite. Overall, this is a classic style in a fun, pretty color and the quality is comparable to wrap dresses that cost 4x as much.

My new go to ...
I bought this with an upcoming wedding in mind, but see myself wearing this everywhere from now on. The fabric is slightly heavy, which helps it drape nicely over curves and gives it more warmth than I was expecting. I'm a true petite -- 5'1", 115 lbs, athletic build, size 2 petite -- and the XS petite ... fits like a dream. Shoulders are proportioned perfectly, wraps right at the waist (and shows it off), and drapes very nicely over the hips and butt. I have a very hard time find dresses that fit well but this one is proportioned perfectly. Like other reviewers, this ... hits me right at the knee, but I think it looks fine that length and would probably be more concerned about the split when bending over or sitting if it were much shorter. The "steel green" color is also very lovely and complements my fair complexion nicely.

Love this ...
I have to say I have been wanting this ... over a year but wouldn't pull the trigger because it seemed like a lot of money for a stay at-home mom to pay for a ... didn't have much use for. However, I finally ordered it on sale and got a great price! I really wanted it in Petite Small in Black, but that seems to be hard to find, so I ordered the Vibrant purple in Petite Small and was a little scared that it would be too much, but it is beautiful and it fits great. I am about 5' 3" and approx, 118 lbs and fairly large busted and it I really love it. This can be a very versatile ... anything from a date night to a school function to church! Love it!!!! Would still love to get it in Petite small in Black for a reasonable price!

Adore Adore
I've been watching the debate over the other BR wrap dresses and whether the cut and wrap hole is just right or totally ridiculous. Stop the madness and just get this ... I'm 5'2", 128 lbs. and got the M petite. It's perfection. The cut is a little more A line than the other wrap ... so the fabric doesn't cling to the bum and thighs. The top is snug and non gaping and is therefore work appropriate. You can't see it in the picture, but there's a little bit of fabric gathered at the back of the neck, which adds a little bit of interest. My one minor complaint is that the wrap is placed in such a way so as to fall open slightly when sitting. A little tuck should do the trick.

Great purchase
I am 5'3'', 120 lbs, and large chested (DD bra) so I was worried about constantly readjusting the top. I ordered the petite and although it hits me a right at mid knee it is still very flattering and very comfortable. It definitely flatters a larger chest although a good bra is needed bc it does hug. I love it!

Amazing ...
I am not the kind of person who writes a lot of reviews, but this ... deserves one. As an hour glass shaped petite girl, I knew a wrap ... would help me accentuate the best parts of my body; however, I had never come across one that met my expectations. This ... best of all the wrap dresses I have tried on so far. I fell in love with its fabric quality and well tailored sleeves. I got the black in size S, and it is extremely slimming and flattering. It accentuated my slim waist and my full bust. Unlike some of the people who wrote about its length being too long, I loved the fact that it hit me on the knee. This ... overall made me look sexy but not too revealing. If you are a petite who is in search of a truly amazing ... get this one. You won't be disappointed.

Very Cute
This ... just what I needed. I am 5'4, 135 and usually between 6 and 8. I ordered a medium regular because other reviews have said that when you sit the front will open. I find that because I went with the bigger size it doesn't do it. The length is a little long for me (I ordered regular because they did not have the blue in petite size) but with a simple hem it will work. By getting it shortened it will really make your legs look stunning (and I never say that about my legs). Over all this ... completely worth the money, especially if you get it on sale. I plan on getting the purple and black next...in petite.

Almost perfect...
I just receieved this ... berry color in a petite size small and it is a very flattering ... true to size (my measurements fall right in the petite size 2-4 range from the size chart), and the berry color is lovely- exactly as pictured. The fabric is also a nice quality knit. I would have given this ... 5 stars but for two things- I agree with the other reviewers who had a problem with the length. This ... would be cuter if it was a just a little shorter (maybe an inch or an inch and a half). I am 5'4", so not the shortest of the petites, and this ... hit me at the top of my knee. If it was just a tiny bit shorter, it would still be work appropriate, but even more flattering and versatile. My other problem with the ... totally agree with the reviewers who stated that BR skimped on the fabric width on the skirt part of the wrap. This is not an issue of size, either, because if I go up a size the ... way too big. Note to BR: if you want to skimp on fabric in the future, please take it off of the length of the ... not where it's needed to prevent a breeze inspired peep show. Apart from these two problems, though, the ... great and I do intend to keep it (also, a fantastic deal at 40% off!!)

This one is too long...
I'm 5'4" and I have this ... bright berry in a size petite small, and in cobalt blue in regular length in size XS, both of which I purchased during the summer. They both fit great and, oddly, both fall a little above my knees so although I wished they were a little shorter, they looked good the way they arrived and I did not need to have them shortened. I just ordered this ... black in a petite small and it is longer than my two other dresses, falling to the center of my knees and looking rather dowdy lengthwise. I need to have this one shortened by two inches. Apparently, there is some variation in length on this one either from ... batch to batch. Apart from the length, it is a very flattering ...

Very classy ... but needs to be shorter for petite girls
This is a very classy ... got the one in black in a size XS Petite. I love the flattering v neckline that was not too low cut and the three quarter sleeves. I only wish the length was shorter. I'm 5'1' and the ... fell at my knee, which isn't the best length when you're petite. It might look better if I had worn heels with it, but I walk a lot so am usually in flats. I'd probably give it a 4 if the length was shorter, and I might even buy the same ... other colors! One other thing, be careful while walking in this ... found myself having to hold it down sometimes, especially when it's windy. the layer underneath doesn't wrap around all the way, so you might end up showing more than you intend to!

Inaccurate color - Royal blue, not the blue pictured
It's a nice ... really like the ruching detail at the shoulders and back of the neck that set it apart from other wrap dresses. But I would not have ordered it if the picture (and color name) had been more accurate. On my computers, the "Renoir blue" looks like a gorgeous, very vibrant violet blue. Much like what comes to mind when you think of a Renior painting, right? But in real life, it is a sort '80s royal blue. Definitely NOT as pretty as in the picture. Also, it is longer than a petite size should be. I'm 5'3"- not super short, but the petite XXS hits right at the top of my kneecap. Also, as mentioned by other reviewers, each inside panel of the skirt needs to be wider because when you sit down, it exposes your whole thigh unless you rest your hand on your lap. Other than those two things, it fit perfectly (I'm 100lbs, a size 0). Since I got 35% off, I will keep it.
