PrettyGuide Women 's 1920s Black Sequin Gatsby Maxi Long Evening Prom Dress

First let me say I absolutely love this dress. It's gorgeous. Bought it for an upcoming cruise and can't wait to play dress up. Ordered Jan 11th, rcvd Jan 19th. Now for some details. I typically wear an 18-20 more so 20. Chest 40D I ordered the XXL as they suggested. The dress fits wonderfully. I don't even have to unzip it to put it on. It slides right down. It does take a minute to shimmy the slip down, then adjust the layer on top of that, then adjust the beaded part as that slips right over the bum. The dress is sheer so I added a slip so I didn't feel so naked. The armpits of the dress are perfect as there's no hanging or bunching material (I hate that drooping look). The chest area although it's stretchy material I felt like the girls are packed in. Not uncomfortably packed, just in there firmly. The length, I'm 5'4 and it just touches the floor. I put on 1inch heels just to see how it looked and again perfect. Flats could work but with such an elegant dress you need a shoe that dazzles it even more. (I'm sure 3inch heels would be better but not for this girl lol) The detail is incredible. All the beads, and the time they put into the dress is amazing. I did have one bead fall already but I expected that to happen as I was twirling like a little princess in my dress. So what's the down side. As far as I can tell for me just one. It has to do with all the beads. I noticed my arms rubbing up against them. I'm thinking my arms may start to get irritated. Its rough almost like scratching. So I've decided I will just keep my arms posed to my hips all nite. lol. Hope this little review helps. A few pics for ya below.

The dress is absolutely beautiful. Happy with price, length of skirt, and quality of material. It will look great with heels, but I don’t wear more than 2” heels. I am 5’9” 145 lbs. I ordered 6-8 and loved how it fit because I did not want a strong mermaid look. If I wanted more curves to be accented, I would have went a size smaller. It has a light cami slip in the bodice and was modestly covered in the front w/o looking like a nun. I bought a light shawl to cover the back a little more, but it was not too revealing as is. I would approve for my daughter’s prom and/or a evening party with spouse.

I ordered two of these dresses, one in green size 10/12 and one in blue size 6/8 since so many reviews say it runs large. This dress definitely runs LARGE. I'd love to give this beautiful dress 5 stars since it is feels well-made and is quite flattering on a curvy figure, but I docked it a star for a few reasons. For reference, I'm 5'8" 200lbs and my measurements are 40-34-44. Green size 10/12 - this seems to fit more like a standard US size 14 in my experience. It easily slid over my head without having to touch the zipper (which is probably a good thing as the zipper seems a bit flimsy) and there is extra material that bunches up at the sides and in the back unless I keep pulling it down to smooth it out. The green color is gorgeous though, and my pictures don't really do it justice. The length is good for me, it falls just past my ankles in bare feet. With heels it might feel a bit short, but fortunately I don't like to wear heels. Blue size 6/8 - this seems to fit like a standard US size 10. I also didn't need to use the zipper to pull this over my head. The fit is much better for me, although I was very disappointed with the color. I thought I'd accidentally received a black dress when I first opened it, but it is in fact a very dark navy blue. The pictures on Amazon had me expecting a more vibrant blue for some reason. The length is about a half inch shorter than the 10/12 size. All in all it's still a beautiful dress, and I'm a bit torn on which one to return. I may keep both! No discount or freebies received here, I pay full price for my stuff. Hope this was helpful!

You would think that for this not to be an expensive dress it would look cheap or not fit well because its not a custom fit well guess again. I wear a 14/16 and that's what I ordered and it fit perfect. I'm a curvy 5'2" so I had to get about 4 inches cut off so that my shoes could be seen but this is a very pretty dress. What makes it so wonderful is that the dress is beaded with light weight beads and the sequence is very classy. And the dress has a lot of stretch to it which give with any body flaws. The bottom is sheer but has a lining so that the sheerness doesn't come to high up the leg. The zipper zips very well and there were no loose beads. It is a very dark navy and it is very modest but sexy. If you're on the fence about this dress buy it and I don't think you'll be sorry.

The dress was lovely and perfect for the event. I added long satin gloves and a rhinestone belt which dressed it up even more and defined the waist. The dress is a little long for someone “short” like me, so I raised the front hem at the top (easier to do) and let the back of the hem drape for a nice effect.

The dress was just perfect. I ordered it for my daughter's wedding, I wasn't sure what size to order because some dresses say size up some say size down. I ordered the size I normally wear, a size XL which is 18/20. I am 5'10 and 210lbs. The length was perfect with a slightly heeled sandal. I had to remove the bottom row of beads because it was a little tight across my thighs when I sat but that wasn't bad. The bottom netting is see through from the knee down which looked dumb so a seamstress added a piece of the exact material, underneath at the seam which made the dress perfect. The sequins did not bother my underarms at all. I ordered it in Navy. The dress is absolutely beautiful!

I really thought this dress looked good and feels nice but it just didn’t fit my style. It does have the old flapper style look too.

Hi, I had the hardest time trying to figure out what size and if this dress would look like the picture. I thought it would resemble a costume type dress or look fake but it didn't!! It is a real dress. As for size, I ordered a Medium 10/12. I wear 10/12 (36D, 145lbs, 30-31 waist). The Medium fits perfect. The small would of been to small and the large would of been too big. So if you are a size 10/12 order the medium 10/12 it should fit nicely. My only problem is that I am 5'4 so the dress is way too long for me so I will have to get it hemmed/altered. I need this for my son's wedding so I will have to find someone to alter it. Overall, I really like this dress. The cobalt blue color is popping! I don't like navy blue in this color but if you are going to an event and the colors are navy blue attire, then the navy blue color will work. I prefer the cobalt/blue and black color better. Again, if you are 5'4 and under, you will have to get the length altered. Oh, and it arrived very quickly (two days). I am a prime member so maybe that's why? Anyhow, Hope this helps!

Très belle robe de soirée, couleur parfaite, le tissu est bien, elle ne gratte pas. Je fais du 36 je voulais prendre du XS mais j'ai pris du S car je ne savais pas trop. ma morphologie est un 8, elle baille un peu au niveau de la taille, mais je sais coudre donc je l'ai un peu reprise au niveau de la taille et de la longueur et elle me va comme un gant. Je ne regrette pas mon choix sur la couleur et ni sur la taille.

Ordered 16-18 as a 14 to 16 myself. Beautiful dress that hangs well and has some weight to it. Excellent value for money as looks much more expensive. Comfortable to wear too. Would definitely look at this make again.

Thanks, Looks fantastic. Fits also as expected. Will wear it to my wedding anniversary party. Thanks!

Ottima fattura, ben rifinito e ben cucito, indossato è veramente molto raffinato ed elegante. Una 2XL, per me che ho 112 di seno è leggermente larga, come fosse una taglia in più, ma se si usa, come nel mio caso per cantare, è perfetto perché dà la sensazione visiva di fasciare il corpo ma lascia agio al respiro e ai movimenti. Avendo le spalle coperte è possibile usarlo anche per concerti in luoghi di culto. Valorizza il "lato B" in modo elegante. Non è difficile da accorciare anche se è lungo: basta fare una "balza" al di sotto della zona con le paillettes che si sovrappone alla parte finale, senza tagliarlo in fondo. Qualunque tipo di reggiseno indossato non si nota. Gran bel vestito!

Me daba un poco de miedo por eso de no poder probármelo. Por el precio que tiene, me parecía que no sería muy bueno pero animada por las opiniones, lo compré. Me ha llegado antes de lo previsto y tengo que decir que el vestido es espectacular!!! Estoy súper contenta porque al tener talla grande, me resulta complicado encontrar vestidos de fiesta BBB (bueno, bonito, barato) y os aseguro que este es un BBB en toda regla. Es cierto que el tejido no ea muy duro y marca pero estiliza mucho. Si lo acompañas de un body, queda ideal. Para mi ha sido todo un acierto. Uso una 46/48 de pantalón y pedí el vestido de la talla 50-52. Estupendo. Quizá una talla menos también pero seguro que marca más así que no lo cambio. Este me viene perfecto!
