We always hope that the dress looks just like it is pictured i would say that this dress is more of an emerald green rather then a paler mint green . that said it is very forgiving stylewise because it does not cling and show your lumps and bumps . however the material is very thin like a sheet. length is good it is right to the knee on my 5'3" frame. armholes are well positioned and not too big as to show bra or undergarments .
 not so sure how it would hold up over an evening or afternoon wea
