I get so many compliments when I wear this dress. I have it in the Red Hot color and just ordered it in the black and white. It comes with detachable straps which is perfect for when I want to wear this to work. It is light and very soft. I am 5'2" and it hits just below mid thigh, not too long and not too short. I recommend this dress to every woman who is looking for a light summer dress, for over a bathing suit or as a casual day time/night time dress.
