Beautiful!
This dress is such a pleasant surprise! Fit is true to size and seems well made, especially for the price. The fabric is thick (not see through or clingy) but light weight and comfortable. As a 42 year old mom, this dress also is flattering in the tummy area and the cut and shape of the dress is just flattering over all. I will note that they ship this dress in a vacuum sealed bag so it does arrive wrinkly, but after an initial steaming/ironing I think the material will resist wrinkling and creasing. The only thing missing is pockets!

Pleasantly surprised
I love this dress. It is exactly as depicted. I am a 36H chest size 1012 and I ordered an extra large. I'm very borderline and probably could order the large but I liked how comfortable the extra large feels and it's still flattering in the waist and doesn't stretch on my bra. It's a slightly stretchy quality fabric. Perfect for a cocktail holiday party. I wouldn't wear it without the petit coat just because it wouldn't do it justice with my flat butt. :) Great dress for the price!

Comfy dress, love the stretchy material.
I like this dress, it's stretchy and comfortable. I am 5'3 and 194# and a 42DDD. Ordered a XL but the bust was a little big after I cut out the " modesty stitch " I love the pedicoat I ordered with it , makes it look more vintage. I love how you can dress up or dress down depending on accessories. You will need to steam it before wear as it gets pretty wrinkled. Great dress for the money.

This dress is perfect!
I am a larger hourglass figure that normally wears a size 12-14 and the Large was the perfect size. I got this for my husbands best friends wedding and the color of the Dark Blue is exactly what I needed. He’s the best man so I want to look good with his suit but not match the wedding colors in Wine.The material is the sheer, polyester feel which I love, but it does wrinkle easily and doesn’t have a lot of stretch. I don’t mind these things, a good rinse and hang dry then a quick, light ironing on low heat usually does the trick with this kind of fabric. The hem is a bit long but the bust is perfect, especially with the holding stitch removed and the higher waist line and flared skirt hide my new mom belly really well. The capped sleeves make this perfect for most occasions. The zipper is a bit sticky so expect help to close the back.All in all, perfect for the occasion I bought it for and will probably become a staple in my wardrobe!

Pretty dress, odd sizing
The dress looks like the picture. I thought the fabric quality was good. The stitching holding the overlap in the chest is oddly placed and makes it sit weird. I sized up to a large but wish I didn’t. The shoulders and chest area were large on me (which on my body is why I had sized up). The fabric is stretchy so you could probably size down. The wrinkles are hard to get out.It is light weight, a good length, and very comfortable. I love the look and I had a lot of difficulty finding something like this with nice coverage.

Flattering fit
This dress is beautiful. Still cute without an added petticoat, but gorgeous if you have both. The fabric is soft and slinky, slightly stretchy. I'm in a size 6, sometimes 8, 34DD and the medium fit perfect.

So pretty! These dresses run large
This dress is absolutely stunning! I love the cross-over chest, high waistline and flared bottom. This dress is very flattering on my figure. These dresses run a bit large. They are zippered in the back, but the material is stretchy, and I just pull it over my head. Normally I would wear a size 18 dress, but the first two dresses that I ordered were too large for me. I finally ended up with a size Large, which according to their size chart is an 12-14 (I don’t think so…) and it fits perfectly. I’m 5 foot 7 inches and 190 lbs.

Cute dress; stiff cotton material
I’m 5’9” 180 lb with a long torso and small/medium bust. Ordered a Medium. I generally fit in medium dresses when they’re stretchy because size larges are usually too big in the bust for me. This is a size Medium in the photo. It’s pretty cozy up there in the chest because the material is not stretchy and it is zippered all the way up the back. I’m going to try a size large just for reference but I’m happy with the chest coverage in the medium.It’s very flowy in the waist which is nice for dinner events that might leave you normally trying to suck it in. NO POCKETS!!The zipper is not top quality so I can imagine if you’re not careful, it will break with too much force so trust the person zipping you up with all your heart. FYI, There is a band just under the cups that create an extra tuff of material that the zipper has to gently yet also firmly get over.I ordered a few white belts that might add some flare to that band nicely but can also be worn as is!Easy to dress up for a formal event (why I bought it) or throw on a Jean jacket and flats and go casual.Again material is stiff—no stretch, so it’s slightly restricted in the arm pits but not so much that I cant raise my arms. I’m happy with the arm pit coverage which is always a self conscious trigger for me. I’ll have to follow up with what it looks like when I sweat here…Overall, there are lots of mixed reviews on this one but I say take the risk and try it on. My husband seemed genuinely wowed when I walked in the room. The only thing that would make this a 5 star dress is POCKETS! And maybe a 1-2% elastic material blend for some breathing room.

Excelente
Muy bonito, se amolda bien a la cintura, pues en esa parte viene ajustado. La tela es delgada y se transparenta un poquito.

Worth the money
It's so comfortable and true to size. I will definitely buy more. It is longer than expected but still flattering. I am around a size 8 to 10 and I bought a medium.

Wunderschön
Gute Qualität, erstaunlich für den Preis.Das Kleid 👗 ist etwas zu lang, es liegt aber an meiner Figur. Kürzer kann man es immer machen!.Angenehm auf der Haut! Dieses Kleid ist auch für Petticoat gedacht, wenn man es nicht casual benutzen möchte
