I bought this dress to wear to a wedding in November but I was very disappointed when I tried it on. It was way too long. I am 5'5" and it was half-way between my knees and ankles. The mannequin in the picture must be almost 6 feet tall for it to fall at her knees. I would have had it altered but the sides were cut funny and didn't fall right. The white stripes tapered about two inches shy of my side. I am returning the dress and am going to try another one.
