Pretty & comfortable

This dress is a brilliant fit & perfect style for hiding those lumps & bumps. I’m 5’2” & the length was perfect for me, about mid knee length.
It benefits from a light press after washing but you could get away with no iron if you don’t aggressively spin. And to top this review off, it looks & feels pretty. I’ve just bought another one in a different colour.

The colors of this dress are beautiful! LOVE!

The colors of this dress are beautiful! And the medium size fit perfectly! I can’t wait to wear it!
I am 5’1” and curvy and don’t like things fitted at my waist. The medium was perfect.
I definitely will consider buying again from this retailer.

Loved the pattern and the colors

Loved the pattern and the colors. But the style of the dress made me look frumpy. Could be because I am short. I ordered the same pattern and color but in a different style.

Love this dress

Love this dress. The fabric is still stiff after washing it but I assume this will soften over time. The fit was good and true to size for me. It is very cool to wear as well so will be great in Summer.

Hi there, we're so happy to hear you love the Riley Dress. It is made from our mid-weight cotton, that holds a bit more structure. It will soften a little, but still hold some shape. It’s wonderful to know it's comfortable and perfect for summer. Thanks for sharing your experience!

absolutely love this dress! The fit, style and colour are all perfect. It fits so well and has that lovely loose, relaxed feeling without looking oversized. The material is so soft, lightweight and breathable, which makes it perfect for summer.
I love it so much that I’ve purchased another two dresses in the same style, just with different patterns. Definitely will be one of my favourite dresses! ❤️

This could be my new favourite dress!!

This could be my new favourite dress!! I love everything about it - the relaxed fit, the neckline, the longer length puffy sleeves and it’s a perfect length for shorties like me! The deep pockets are definitely a great feature and the print is beautiful with the white flowers just popping against the darker background. Can’t wait to keep wearing it through the warmer months.

Love my Riley dress

My dress arrived yesterday and it is a perfect fit. It runs a little large so recommend down sizing. The fabric is really good quality and the print is lovely and exactly as advertised. First time ordering from Karma East, but definitely not my last.

As cute on me as it is on the model.

The Riley Dress Peacock is as cute on me as it is on the model. It’s figure flattering and the pattern of the fabric is so colorful and bright and I love that. I love color! It ran small so I am exchanging it for a larger size.

Loved the fabric. Fitted the bust area but hip area way too big and billowy.

Hi Vicki,

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.

Many of our dresses are designed to have a flattering yet comfortable fit, which can result in a more relaxed fit through areas like the hip. If this particular style didn't suit you, then you may like some of our other options that have a more fitted silhouette or straight cut.

You're more than welcome to send back your Riley Dress if it has been unworn and unwashed. Please see our Returns policy on our website for more information.

Please don't hesitate to reach out to us via email if you'd like to give us another shot. We'd be more than happy to address any queries you may have and walk you through the many different styles we have to offer that may be better for you.

Warm regards,
Chelsea @ Karma East

I love this dress and my husband just said I needed to buy another. Fit was great. I love the sleeves! Only complaint is it took 3 weeks-month to get coming from Australia. Love it. & it washed up perfect!

Cute as a baby doll

This is an absolutely stunning print and I just love this new cut. I only wish I had bought it sooner. Fabulous quality and such a comfortable yet stylish fit. I can see myself buying other prints in this style.

Arrived quickly and nicely packaged. Had a bit of a factory smell but after a wash I could wear my beautiful dresses.

Lovely style

I really wanted to give this a 5 star review and for a shorty this is a really lovely dress.The length is perfect and the Camellia is a gorgeous print. It has a beautiful fit across the shoulders. The sleeves sit beautifully but the problem for me is that it is very billowy around the waist and gives me no shape in that area. at all. Quick fix though, I used a belt. That solved the problem and I can’t wait to wear it in the warmer weather.
