I?m a lean 5?8?. My dress size is 10 for my broad shoulders and my skirt size is 6 for my narrow hips. I ordered this batik dress in large and it?s a perfect fit for me. I have room in the hips which is needed in order to use the size pockets. I?m so happy with this dress I ordered another one.
I was very very happy when I opened this and tried it on. Beautiful. I would say the Large is definitely a 12-14 US size and no bigger. The length is sundress length, not too short and not too long. The materials and colors are really lovely and the material feels good against the skin. I am using the belt as a headband. Such a pretty color mix.

Very happy with this lovely tunic! The colours and design are exactly as in the photo and its a perfect fit. Im 1.58cm and chose L because often enough womens wear is too tight fitting. I was a bit worried the sleeve length would be too long but this is not the case. Im pleasantly surprised how well cut the tunic is. This is definately the work of an experienced dressmaker. Another plus is that the fabric doesnt require ironing after washing.
