This dress was featured on the blog on December 31st as a look 4 less of the BCBG silk layered combo dress (see original post HERE).
I was looking forward to receiving this dress as I'd put the BCBG version on my wishlist awhile ago. The dress arrived yesterday and the quality seemed good for the price, and I liked the color of the skirt (which is different from the BCBG version, and more taupe than pink as shown in the Lulu's stock photo) as well as the exposed zipper detail in the back of the dress. However, I have to return this item because when trying it on I realized it was WAY too short for me. Like, a gentle breeze could roll through and I'd be arrested ...it was that short!!
Would I recommend this dress? Definitely not if you have a body like mine (5'10", long torso), but if you are shorter or have a short torso it might work for you. Click here if you'd like to purchase.

omg love this!! I have a short torso I may have to try it!
Definitely try it and see if it works for you Amber. I really wish it had fit me properly, it was SO cute. I guess I'll just keep my fingers crossed that the BCBG version goes on super sale! :)
That's really cute and the quality looks pretty good. Length is a drawback w/the junior websites, but it can be worth a try.
Thanks for the review, J. I've been keeping my eye on that one...at 5'2" it may be a winner for me...
What a bummer about the length. We talls get the short end of the stick...errr...you know what I mean.
Sorry it didn't work out for you! I ordered that dress last week and it should arrive tomorrow! Luckily, I am short and extremely short in the torso!
Gigi - You're so right, juniors dresses tend to be borderline too short on me (although I've found a few exceptions).
Coley - You're welcome. I hope that it works for you if you purchase it!
Roxy - I know it, it really is a bummer. :(
Kelly - Let me know how it works for you! I hope it fits you better (if you want to add to the review just email me and I'll post it!).
