The Black and White colors are vibrant and true. White is pure White, and Black is rich Black. The effect is elegant. Taking this one to Cancun. I'm not one for cheap plastic on my tops, but the 'jewels' aren't too overwhelming, they blend in well. True to size in Lg. The slit cuffs are nice, and the amount of fabric at hip line is just right. Not too bulky, & not too tight. It flows softly over the body. I'm 5'3" and this is a true tunic length. Would recommend to Misses figure types.
