Banana Republic Mad Men Betty dress Review

 

I really wanted to like this dress($150). The fabric is heavy and a crinoline or petticoat is sewn into the skirt. Unfortunately it does run HUGE. I usually wear a 4. I tried on the 2 Petite and I was swimming in it. I did ask the sales associate to try the size 0P but she accidentally brought me the same size and I didn't want to ask a second time. The color seems like it doesn't suit for a party dress but with some costume jewelry I think it would be really fun for cocktails. If you are a true size 0 this won't work without alterations, but it would be great for a large bust.
