I'm 5ft4 and this dress is way too long for me... I read the reviews before and thought I would give it a try. It is not (definitely not) a "dressy" dress and yes, it does feel like a bathing suit. I'm a full C cup and it supports absolutely nothing. With a bra it looks stupid, so I'm sorry to say this is going to be returned.

You must not be a C cup, then. As a 5'2" 32 DD, I find this dress absolutely fine support. The length was an issue for a time, but 2 years later, when I tried it on agian, I realized it was an acceptable length. It hits me just about mid-calf (You could get away with riding a bike in it). I don't know how it would feel like a bathing suit. It's a more smooth, technical fabric, that works a lot better than a swimsuit! I've been hiking in the dress, out 'on the town', and used it for casual wear. The dress is very versatile, and I think it is plenty dressy. (Maybe unless you are going to a galla event). I have recieved many compliments on the way the dress looks on me. (Never a bad thing). In fact, a friend convinced me to get the dress again, because it looked so good on me. (Not lying). All I can say is you must of needed a different size, or wasn't really looking for a great dress like this one anyway.

I'd actually like to revise my last sentance, alittle. What I should really say is, like most things a person buys and wears, different cuts and shapes look good on different people. So, maybe this dress just doesn't flatter your figure. One of my friends tried the dress, and it didn't look good on her. But, another dress that did look good on her, didn't on me.
