Not as colorful as photo. Nice, but too green
"The dress is nice, and I did receive a couple of compliments the one time I wore it in February, but it's too green. I was hoping it would be like the Peace bag or scarf, but it isn't. It's much more muted. Fits great, though. The swatch photo has a great deal of contrast. In real life, it's harder to read the words. Plus, those green daisies are distracting. If this dress were to be done over, I'd like it to have a lighter background with more contrast, and no blotches. Love the pattern other than those two issues."

Peace and Healing is what the world needs
"I love, love, love this dress. The message is perfect — it resonates deeply with my work as both a poet and a social worker. It immediately reminded me of my poem “Peace Be Upon You,” which celebrates peace in many languages across the world. The only design suggestion I would offer — and I share this with admiration — is to consider lowering the waistline about an inch to an inch and a half. A slightly dropped waist allows the dress to hang even more naturally and comfortably, especially for those of us with longer torsos. Svaha, you have my permission to use my poem below (with attribution to Joy Leftow). I would be honored. Peace be Upon You I envision a world where my sisters and me, And my brothers, stand united as one, you see. Let hate dissipate, as peace takes its flight, Through different lenses, we choose to ignite. In this plea for peace, no more battles we wage, Let brain signals emit waves of harmony on each page. Time's ticking, like legions of artists behind, My voice honors their legacy, peace enshrined. Vibrations move within, a shared trance we embrace, Formulating peace, dispelling illusions we chase. Breathe it in, feast upon peace's divine feast, Through my hair, my eyes, its essence increased. Visions transcend skin tones, colors fade away, In oceans of peace, we explore, we sway. Barish, Béke, Damai, Friður, and La Paz, Eirene, Laule‘a, Nanna Ayya—our peace's jazz. Pingan, Vrede, Shalom, and Heiwa's embrace, Pokój, Rahu, Shalom, Salaam Alaikum—peace's grace. Emit the pulse, resonate with Om shanti's might, Let La Paix, Om Mani Padme Hum guide us through the night. Peace be upon you, radiating to the universe's expanse, A tapestry of love and serenity, let it enhance. Barish - Turkish La Paix - French Béke - Hungarian Vrede - Dutch Damai - Indonesian Wolakota - Lakhota Friður - Icelandic Shalom - Hebrew Eirene - Greek Heiwa - Japanese La Paz - Spanish Udo – Igbo Nanna Ayya - Chickasaw Shîte - Tibetan Laule‘a - Hawaiian Rahu – Estonian Pingan - Chinese Pokój - Polish, Slovak"
