The material is a great weight, comes with a belt, has pockets, and is lined. The negative is it runs HUGE. I am an xxl or xl in most everything. The size chart is inaccurate on the listing. I even looked up French Connection sizing. It is only online. I am not sure if I need a large or xl. I ordered an xxl %26 it was so big it was falling off of me. I'm 5'3'' and 220lbs dress size is usually xxl or xl or size 14-18 in dresses.

Purchased Med. I think it would have fit well enough not to mess with a return , except for the top from the belted area up is a good size or more bigger than it should be. UnLESS you are a bust It has to be returned and will give small a try.

Sizing was way wrong. Ordered a Med and was more like an XL. Then ordered a XS and the straps are still to big. The belt for the Med fits better on the XS. Just save yourself time and money ans pass on this dress.
