This gauze offering does incorporate many of the current fashion trends. The maxi dress is quite fashion forward for the summer of 2009. This dress measures 48 inches in length. Many of the customers who reviewed this dress complained that it was shorter than they had expected. This would be good news for shorter women who may not have to have it altered. Many dresses are being shown at the mid-calf length, so even if this is not “maxi” on taller women, it might still work.

Another fashion trend incorporated in the dress is the use of embellishments. On this dress, floral appliqués are featured v-neck, waist and flounced hem. This dress is offered in the following four color options: sherbet, lilac, Capri blue, and white. It is made of woven cotton gauze and it is machine washable. The split flutter sleeves nicely balance the flounced hemline. This gauze maxi features a back zipper.

The customer reviews on this dress were quite positive. Of the 14 reviews, only two of the consumers stated that they were returning the item. One reviewer did mention that she felt the dress required wearing a slip due to the sheerness. She had purchased this dress in white, which may be more “see-through” than the other color selections. The $34.99 to $39.99 price range seems to be fair.
