- SJSusan J.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoFabulous!
It’s beautiful and I love it like I love all my my Zuri dresses. The material is wonderful, the colours and pattern are amazing , and the sizing is true. Can’t recommend is highly enough!
- HRHilary R.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoThe perfect red dress
I bought this when I couldn’t get an Ibis, and I’m so happy with it – the background red is bright but perfectly subdued by the black pattern with its accents of cream and blue. It’s the first time I opted for a Long, and it swirls in an elegant, cloaklike way when worn as a duster. The fabric is substantial and adds to its sense of body. I’m getting loads of compliments on this one!

Elevate is quickly becoming a serious go to dress! The color, the whimsy,the versatility all speak to my personality. The ladders in the design intrigued me at first and a challenge. Whether up or down, Elevate keeps it moving!
