This is ankle-length on me, and it's loose, comfortable, and flattering. I'm 5ft 3ins/150lbs, and I ordered size Large. I think this could be the first time I've purchased a long dress that is well-made and fits me perfectly! Usually, I end up having to shorten the hemline, sew in some darts. It's fortunate that I sew! Overall, I'm very happy with this dress, and will be ordering another one. I just wish I could get a magnified view of the various patterns.
