This dress is fab. Nell wasn’t joking when she said the fabric was super supple and soft. For something with metallic thread in its matrix, this dress is super flowy and defies physics.
The colors are vibrant in person, but I wouldn’t say it is strictly a holiday dress. It will take you through the fall into winter comfortable. Throw a black jacket or sweater on it and you can wear it to the office. It has a sheen but it’s not insane.
It runs a little big. If you are in between two Ellie sizes, go for the smaller one. Or take a risk and size down one. I’m a M/L in Ellie and I would probably go for a small.
