This is the perfect blue. The texture gives it something extra that elevates it in photographs. As a short person with a large bust it makes me look taller and lays perfectly at the neckline. I didn’t have an issue with the shoulders - they fall occasionally but I haven’t found a sleeve in this style in any brand that doesn’t. I have very small rounded shoulders. Everyone needs this universally flattering blue in one of the dress models. It is a moment.
