This dress was even prettier in person! The velour is so soft and slightly shimmery in the way it reflects the light. The color is a true bright cranberry red, no orange tones. I typically float between 2x and 3x in sizing here; I went with a 3x in this (despite the advice to size down) and it fits perfectly through the body. However, I have somewhat narrow shoulders and the sleeves want to fall off my shoulders. Also, the photos don't show how the back on this dress is; it would have been nice to know that. But it's still lovely to wear and I'm happy I bought it; maybe another color would be a good idea...
As always the fabric is of great quality. I love the puff sleeves and the rich color as well, and it fits great!
Love the fabric and the design is so fun to style
Very pretty! My measurements are 35-27-38 and the XS fits perfectly snug! Unfortunately I don’t see myself wearing it. The waist is asymmetrical enough that it bothers me. It’s possible mine just happens to have a defect. I am hoping to return it, but for whatever reason the returns portal is now impossible to find and I haven’t received a response to the email I sent 2 days ago…
Stepping out hugged by crimson arms, the sleeves of your dress whisper comfort and strength to you. Puff sleeves bring a drama to the very air around you, and even when you stop your pace, the skirt flows like water soft and warm. Do yourself a kindness and purchase this dress if you can, because it's lightning in a bottle.
So beautiful! I can’t wait to wear it for Thanksgiving—I was a little reticent about sizing down from my usual large to a medium, but the other reviewers were absolutely correct that this is a stretchy knit and it fits perfectly.
I love everything about this dress I love the color, I love the cut, the pockets, and I love the sleeves. I felt absolutely timeless in this dress. I highly recommend as something elegant but also comfortable
First off, this dress is beautiful. It has a vintage look, feels nice to the touch, and is well-made. I initially ordered an XL since my measurements are a 43" bust (36H bra) and a 33" waist, which put me at the lower end of the XL size. However, when I received the dress, it was too big. The shoulders were slipping, and it had a very baggy appearance. The cut seemed more suited for plus size- 1X, not a mid-sized body. I considered taking it in but returned it for an L size due to the shoulder issue. The return process was straightforward. In the photo, I am wearing an L-size dress. While I plan to continue wearing it, I face some challenges because it doesn’t fit me perfectly. It feels comfortable when I first put it on in the morning, but the waist becomes tight as I eat. Although the dress has some stretch, the waist area has none at all. The inside dress waist measures 35", giving me only 2" of bloat room daily. I might consider wearing a corset underneath to help with this. I do wish there was more seam allowance in the bodice, however. I only feel about a 1/4" per seam. It would be much nicer to have a 1/2" so people could adjust the dress just a little. Additionally, I plan to add loops inside the straps to secure my bra, as the narrowness of the area causes it to slip a bit. It would have been nice if that feature had already been there, but it's no big deal. Overall, I am happy. But if I am the same size I am today, I will have to be very careful with future size orders as my bust and shoulder size is more of an L, and it seems my waist is more of an XL due to how my body behaves throughout the day.
I have this dress in black and I had to have it in more colors. It is really well constructed and a beautiful princess dress. It does have stretch so if you are in between sizes size down.
I never post pictures of myself EVER! It’s a confidence issue. … If you need that special dress for this is it in my opinion the colour is a dream I have bought quite a few things I always buy 2xl or 3xl due to my 40H chest size 16 to 18 changing waist but I tried an xl in this although this isn’t the best picture the first time I tried it on I felt as though it had been made for me Xx
