I liked the color, but it was cut too low for my comfort. Definitely for casual outings.

Not for me
Just did not work for me. Sizing and material. I ordered according to sizing recommendations but dress did not fit. I am running into this problem with LL Bean clothes.

Simple, basic black dress for travel
I used this during travel, evenings & casually dressy dinners. I paired it with the gauzy, window-pane black & cream checked shoulder cover up.
