It's soft and warm, but lightweight, and this dress fit me perfectly. At first, the top looked a little square, but after washing and drying (it came out perfect, no shrinkage or wrinkles), it looked kinda cute. First thing in the morning, I wore it to a party with only our immediate family. My boyfriend said I looked like I was ready to shop at Walmart, but my daughter and granddaughter both said it was cute. Anyway ...... It fits great, has long sleeves and legs, and is super comfortable. I would like to order another one.
