What buyers say

Questions answered
The silk is heavier than most slips at this price. It drapes instead of sticking, which is the whole point.
Naomi EllsworthVerified buyer, Portland OR · Size S
I am 5 foot 3 and hemmed two inches off. Tailor said the bias cut was cleanly finished, which is rare at this price.
