Amazing quality! Wish Octoberfest was everyday!
Beautiful craftsmanship. Real embroidery and lovely detailed metal lacing grommets. Quality fabric that was soft yet sturdy. Well sewn hems, closures and decorative details. They had even removed all the loose end threads! Very professional work.I ordered a size small- - I’m 5’ 5” 118lbs and wear size 2/4 typically- - The fit was perfect but also very snug. Not the dress for eating giant meals, lifting heavy kegs or singing operas in! If it had been of lesser quality, I’m sure the seams could split and pop! But it held fine all day and looks like it will last a long time.My single wish is that the dirndl top had a way to adjust it from underneath the bodice to allow the “girls” to be a little more front and center. The length of the top is so short, it barely covered my bra, stopping just beneath the second row of lacing grommets. I was imagining sewing two sets of ribbons onto the dirndls bottom hem, one each on the front and back, and left-side, right-side, that could hang down past the waist. At least then you could pull those from under the skirt to lower it or even attach snaps or Velcro to the ribbons (like a garter almost) and also on the inside of the bodice/skirt at corresponding lengths. Then you could adjust the top “depth” to your liking and secure it to stay in place!Maybe? Idk… just a thought. Once it’s all zipped up, there’s not much ability to change how the top lays or how on display you are.As you can see, this outfit is more “modest”, concealing the bust (there are adequate girls hiding in there) and hitting just below my knee, unlike many others I viewed online, but this was perfect for my needs. I even discovered I had the perfect stockings to match the blue apron exactly! (I’d ordered those from Amazon the year before). I did wear a crinoline petticoat underneath, but the skirt fabric has enough heft that it looked fine without one. I found wearing a slip was optional, as the skirt had no see-through issues and I didn’t find it scratchy.Shipping was fast! It arrived in less than five days!Removing it from the packaging, I noticed some minor wrinkling, but all it needed was a couple spritzes of water and a few vigorous shakes to release them.Considering this is not a dress I’ll be wearing but once or twice a year during Octoberfest or Halloween, I wanted it to last for years and not fade, have stitches fall out or get old looking just hanging in the closet due to cheap materials or workmanship.This really matched all my needs!Beautiful, quality workmanship,Thoughtful special little details,Rich, true to image color that didn’t transfer elsewhere (car seat or desk chair)Made with sturdy yet comfortable cotton fabric,Accurate sizing,No weird smell or hard to release wrinkles,Offered at a discount,Free, fast shipping (not just for Prime members)Definitely would recommend.I received lots of compliments wearing it at work for Halloween 2021 and my boyfriend liked it too! I Can’t wait to wear it again next year! Go for it! Buy yourself one too!! 😁🍻

Octoberfest!
The material and design are very nice. My only complaints would be that the waistline on the dress is a little bit too short, as I am taller. Also, the blouse is very uncomfortable. It might be better if it was longer length. Overall, a good bargain!

Winner for many reasons.
Winner! Nice durable fabric. Seams won't fray. The ribbon, apron and dress colors all coordinate very well! I weigh 168 and am 5'3" ordered a XXL because I was concerned that sizes ran small as they SO OFTEN do outside of the US sizing. Nope, not this time. This was much to big so I ordered a XL that may even be roomy.... but there WILL be beer wearing this dress (wink). The metal loops holding the ribbon are authentic and classy looking, just like in the picture. It's a winner ladies! Came to my knee ... easy to hem but you can't make it longer and I'm 66 years old so I'm good with the length. Really happy!!

GREAT dress!
This dress is SO well made! Great, thick fabric, pretty design, comfy, and a great price! If you see the 20% off deal, grab it! It looks pretty close to the authentic dirndls I saw in Austria. Doesn’t look “costumey,” either. I did have to return a few to get down to the right size, so I’d say it runs a bit large. I seriously can’t wait to wear this to a bunch of Oktoberfest events!

WAY too Big
For the price I think the embroidery was nice and overall a good quality dress and looks like described. However, the sizing is way off. The bust is massive and even with a push up bra I couldn’t get it to work, the shirt and the straps of the dress were sliding off my shoulders. The waist is also large but I was able to cinch with the apron. For reference I’m 5’4” 120 lbs with a 34B bust. I want to warn the ibtc that this one is not for us. :)

Beautiful outfit
This exceeded my expectation! It is well made; The material has a brocade look. The color of the photo matches the items received. The fit was perfect. (The criss-crossing ribbon in the front can be loosened to provide extra room if needed.) Although I wish I could have afforded an authentic German outfit, this more than “works” for my once a year family Octoberfest.

This dress is very nice and a good value
The fabric is mostly polyester and cotton. The colors are nice and bright. The embroidery is very nice. I had read all the reviews and was somewhat worried my normal size of XL might be too tight so I ordered 2XL. It is too big for me and I now plan to order one size smaller. 5.5' tall and the length is perfect.
