Haiku Dress NEW & IMPROVED | Black and Gold Dress
I just received this dress, and it's nearly perfect. Kat was wonderful, ensuring I had it in time for the Easter Vigil. I also own the Hymn, and I'm just so impressed with Poet dresses.
I noticed how flattering the Haiku was on multiple models. The same is true for me—it has the perfect balance of structure and flowiness. I ordered a small and medium. The small fits perfectly—if I had chosen the medium, it would've lost that tailored "edge." In the right lighting, the contrast is profound, and it's just amazingly beautiful.
However, I have broad shoulders, and I'm at the upper end of what the shoulder space can accommodate. If you're a gym gal with muscles, you may want to size up simply for the shoulder space. Likewise, if you're busty and you intend to button it up, definitely size up. Otherwise, this dress is true to size.
The only way this dress could be better is if the upper portion had a little stretch—the bottom is already beautiful and flowy. I would buy another one if there were some stretch built in. I'd love some other colors, too, like deep crimson red!
I'm 5'7," 34B and ~132# for size reference
I swear I’ve been looking for a dress like this since ten years ago. It fits great, so pretty, no icky visible bra straps but still has pretty details - love it
