I bought the Francesca Dress in purple/violet color, I love it, thank you for adding another color in the Francesca -- this dress is simple elegance, and can be dressed up or down. Comfort is a big thing for me, I love the cut -- the placement of the seams is ideal for an apple shape woman who wants her waistline to appear smaller.

I bought this dress for a wedding in a couple weeks. I can not wait to wear it! It will be staple in my wardrobe afterwards too. It is the perfect LBD. The quality of the sewing is excellent too. I am very impressed.

This is one of my favorite dresses. I have it in black and in red. I would buy one in very solid color available if I could. I got so many compliments when I wore the red one. I really felt great in it. I never write reviews so you know its really an incrediable dress. The fabric is very comfortable. The cut is flattering. I just can't say enough about this dress.

This is the perfect LBD! I haven't worn a dress in soooo long but have a major wedding and was panicked. As a plus size, it's hard to find something flattering, comfortable, travel friendly and chic. This dress is it! _x000D_ The lining cleverly hides lumps and bumps. I'm 5'11" so am adding a few inches of black silk voile to the hem even though it covers my knees as it is, I'll feel prettier with a few more inches. I contacted igigi and they were kind enough to tell me that it'd be best to add the voile to the lining and not the outer dress layer. I will add a bit of the voile to the sleeves so it ties in with the hem. Maybe a bit to the neckline, not sure about that yet. I plan to own this dress for a long time and dance in it whenever I can! Thank you, igigi!!

This dress is very elegent and beautiful in its simplicity. The fit is nice, yet I prefer more cinching at the waist. I paired this dress with a wide elastic belt for a more flattering bust and waistline. It worked great. _x000D_ I love how the dress can be worn off the shoulder for a sexier look also. You can accessorize your heart away because the dress does not need a lot to grab attention. This look is timeless, classic, and perfect for an event requiring the perfect little black dress._x000D_ Of course I will tell you how it fit. I am between sizes 14 and 16, depending on where I shop. I ordered the 1X and it fit great :-)

I just purchased the Francesca Dress in Black and it arrived today - about a 4 day turn around with no special delivery method. I have been watching this dress for over 5 months. I watch it and it sell out and then they re-stock it and it sells out again. So finally I decided to bite the bullet and go ahead and purchase the dress. My only hesitation was I have not had any success with purchasing dresses on-line in the past. I had my measurements in hand and I checked out the size chart and I was really skeptical because I normally wear a size 18/20, but my measurement on the size chart says for me to order a 14/16. Mind you almost all of my 18/20 dresses has to go straight to the alteration lady before I could wear them. So that was another hesitation – do I order the size the chart says or do I order at least a size larger just to be sure. So after 5 months of debating I finally did it – I ordered the dress. I don’t like returning items so this was a major deal for me – I order the size IGIGI size chart said I should order - the size 14/16. _x000D_ When the box arrived I could hardly believe it was here and I could hardly wait to try the dress on. I took the dress out the box and at first glance the dress was not that impressive to look at. But I kept thinking positive saying - you have made the right decision in buying the dress and buying the size 14/16. So I tried the dress on and BABY WOW. This dress is as Gorgeous on me as it is on the on-line model. I am a BELIEVER and I am glad I am not the one to give the Francesca Dress in Black its first bad review. I kept saying to myself over 110 reviewers cannot be wrong, so go for it and I’m glad I did. My husband and I will be celebrating our 20th Wedding Anniversary on 11/30/11 and I will be wearing my new Francesca Black Dress out to dinner. This worked out so great I am searching for my next IGIGI purchase, I have a couple of things on my list, just trying to decide which one is next. As stated in many other reviewes this is the perfect LBD._x000D_

Just received my Francesca dress and I agree with every other review. I tried to order this dress a couple of times previously and it was always sold out in my size. This is the perfect LBD for a gal with curves. It arrived in only a few days and I can't wait to wear it for my staff Christmas party. I would normally wear size 14/16 but I ordered the size 12 and it hugs my body in all the right places. This is the second dress I have ordered from Igigi and I know it won't be the last.
