I've always loved the silhouette of the Mariposa dress, but the white, pink, and blue weren't my favorite shades. As soon as I saw this had been launched in black, I knew I would end up with this dress at some point! This has a corseted closure with no fabric panel under the corset lacing. This also ran big for me, so I sized down from my regular 14 to a 12, which is also the same size I wear for the Stella dress. For reference, my measurements are 41" bust, 34.5" waist, and 44" hip, and I'm 5'9". I like wearing this with a black mesh mock neck shirt underneath so I can wear it to work and not cover up the butterflies on the shoulder straps! It's also fun to wear this with the straps off the shoulder!
