However, some noted sizing runs small, particularly in the bust, and quality concerns including split seams and broken sleeve elastic after washing.

Celie Dress

Unfortunately for me the Rust Celie dress was not large enough I the bust area. I followed size recommendation which was M and I've had this size before. But this dress ran small. Loved the quality, colour. But not for me. Returns was very quick. Now have refund voucher to pick something else and a great 3 years in which to use it. Thanks Esther and Co.
