I love this dress. I really do. It's so comfortable and easy to accessorize. I loved it since I set eyes on it and loved it even more when I got it! I wore it to church with a pair of flats, and with some peep toe heels to my office. It was comfortable, it was dressy, it was a good fabric so it didn't blow up in the wind, making it comfortable to show some leg. I will probably regret not buying it but there's so much more to come and experiment with!

Waist: 41

This dress was extremely comfortable, as is normal for Karen Kane. I loved the stripes on the top and would like it even more if the back panel had the same pattern.  The fit was nice, it was great for my office, and easy to accessorize with.  I wore it with some comfy Target flats.

I haven't liked my experiences with the house brands, but I closeted this because so many ladies looked so beautiful in it. It doesn't zip up and it has elastic in the back so I wish I had gotten a 2x instead of a 1x, it would have been a little more comfortable, but the 1x fit.  I loved the length, the fabric, the cut... there wasn't anything I didn't like about this skirt!  I would have bought it but it is too much for a housebrand, but the colors are great and easy to accessorize and match tops with.  If you have similar measurements to me, I would definitely go with the 2x.

My measurements in this skirt are:
Height: 5'5"

I soooooo wish I had a fall season in Hawaii. This skirt is the perfect autumn color and it's nice and thick so although it hugs my curves, it flatters and holds its shape. It does loosen throughout the day, it feels like velvet or really small corduroy.   It took me a long time to figure out what to wear with it because I don't have a lot of autumn colors/clothing but I loved wearing this for the day and felt very professional.  I loved the little slit in the back. Not so high it was risque but enough to feel hot. I highly recommend this for someone with a fall season!

My measurements in this skirt are:
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 257
Chest: 45 (40 DD)
Waist: 41

This was a really odd fabric/fit... I can't really put my finger on exactly what I didn't like but it reminded me of a tennis dress, so I wore it to run errands and sent it back. It's strangely thick, but the skirt is flowy.  I wasn't uncomfortable with the length at 5'5, but if you don't like showing your legs, you will want to pair this with something. The collar was super thick and felt like rope.  Another one that wasn't for me.

My measurements in this dress are:
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 257

Very comfortable dress - it felt like a tee shirt, but didn't look casual like a tee shirt. My husband loved this dress unpinned... but of course I had to pin the front in order to wear it to the office and even then it was questionable. It felt a little heavy but probably because of the length, but truly the only thing I didn't love about this dress was the pattern. I loved the cut!

My measurements in this dress are:
Height: 5'5"

Yes, I chopped my hair off.

This dress was extremely comfortable except for the slip portion which was awkwardly small compared to the rest and kept riding up, creating bulges. The pockets were a little bubbly also. I felt like I looked pregnant in this dress, but I got a lot of compliments on the color. I paired it with a sweater because the waist sat at on awkward place for me. I have a high waist and this sat a little low, and may be a good match for someone with a long torso. I think I probably looked better in this than I thought. I felt frumpy, but in pictures I think it looks nice. My husband kept telling me that the dress was so soft he didn't want to stop touching my leg. :-) Guess it's softer than my skin! LOL

My measurements in this dress are:
