Beautiful and only $30!

Looks great! I'm 5'7" and 184lbs. I usually wear a large/ women's 14 or juniors 15. I have a bit of a stomach and curvy. The fringe on the dress hits below my knees, the bottom of the dress hits above my knees, and the liner is about an inch above that.Pros: this dress looks exactly like pictured. The details are beautiful, the bead work and sequins are lovely. It's a great flapper era dress without looking costume-y and cheap.The design goes all the way around the dress. It has sleeves for those that like to cinch things in and wear a bra, and it's flattering which is hard to do for a flapper era style dress. The bead work doesn't call attention to your problem areas and the dark color helps hide bumps.Cons: it's a heavy dress. The beading weighs it down. (But that's only a con if it's an issue for you, personally, I like that they put some much beading and sequin work into it.)The liner may move around and scoot up, I haven't worn it long enough to determine that. I'll be wearing it with tights, so I'll find out later.I haven't worn the dress for more than half an hour yet (the event I'm attending is next week).But it's beautiful and very comfortable.You will need someone to help you zip it up! I had to have help.
No Regrets

Let me start off by stating that I never write reviews for products, but for this one I just had to. As a matter of fact, I think this is my very first review for Amazon. I was a bit sceptical buying this dress, but I was in a pinch for Halloween. To my surprise, the dress arrived just in time (Thanks Prime!) and fit perfectly. I am 5'-5" tall and 130 lbs. with a 34D bust and I ordered a medium. Not too tight, not too loose, but just right. Also, I read complaints saying the dress was too short. Not for me! The lining of the dress hit just above the knee with tassels hanging just below the knee. With all the sequins one could expect the dress to be itchy, but it was not. I really don't have any complaints about this dress. I wore it for 3 different Halloween parties this year and I was impressed with how well it held up! I received so many compliments on how beautiful the dress. It really is stunning! The price was pretty amazing too. If you're on the fence for this product, get it. You won't regret it.
Everyone loved it. I bought a large and it stretched ...

This dress is GORGEOUS! I bought it for a 1920s party and everyone who came through the door complimented it (more than once!). It's very well-made and has beautiful detailing, and it really looks quite expensive. It's flashy and very much made me feel like a wealthy 1920s babe without looking like a costume. The beading makes it heavy, which I liked - it feels secure and doesn't just feel like wearing a bunch of cheap plastic.I am 5' 4" and 170lbs and the XL fit perfectly.It did have one small section (2-3") of beading that was not secured onto the dress when it arrived, but I was able to sew the beading back down in less than a minute. For the price, I expected there to be way more issues than one tiny thing! Definitely worth the price.

This dress is great quality. I am tall and have a big butt, so the slip was very short on me...luckily the fringe kept everything concealed. This is a perfect dress for a Great Gatsby, Roaring 20s, Halloween, or other theme party. It was quite popular....I saw it on several women in other colors at the party.
Gorgeous dress!

I love this dress! I am 5'3, about 145 lbs and I got the L after looking at the sizing chart. It was a perfect fit. Just form fitting enough without being too tight. If you want it looser maybe consider sizing up but if you want something more true to size, go with the size on the chart.As far as quality, I thought it was much better quality than I was expecting considering how much I paid for it. I was surprised to find it so cheap here on amazon when the exact same dress is much more expensive on vintage clothing websites! When I opened it I saw there were a few stray bead strings, but no indication of missing beads or holes. I just secured the loose beads and it was perfect after that.The back of the dress is identical to the front with a zipper going up the back. Didn't have any zipper trouble. The length was just what I wanted, though the inner layer tends to ride up when you sit. The tassels fell just below my knee which is what I was hoping for.Basically this dress met and even surpassed my expectations, and it was super comfortable to wear. I have now worn it to two different dancing events (one of them being salsa) and it held up really well. No fallen beads or tears or anything. I can't wait to find another occasion to wear it to so I can wear it again!
Unflattering
Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2018
Iâm 4â11 and 195lbs. I got an XL because thatâs what I typically wear in clothing. This ended up being so unflattering that I put spandex on underneath and that still didnât help. It outlined my stomach so much I looked like I couldnât breathe. I probably should have stuck with black but decided on the beige to try something different. Big mistake, it highlights all your flaws! And man the slip is short, like right under your butt short, the fringe hides it well though. The only reason Iâm not giving this one star is because the dress itself is beautiful and great quality.

For the price the dress is absolutely stunning the beadwork on it is gorgeous, and feels so expensive when it isnât at all!! Originally I bought it for a fancy dress party for Halloween, but will be keeping it to wear on nights out in future! Would definitely buy from this company again!To give an idea of fit, Iâm a pear shape and a size 10-12 top and 12-14 bottom and I bought the large which fits pretty much perfectly. Itâs not skin right which is nice, but not mega baggy either, and if youâre like me and are a bit curvy itâs nice to find a flapper dress that isnât straight up and down!

LOVE IT!!!!!! Bought an XL, needed to fit a size 14-16 and it does. It's not tight fitting if you get an XL but still has a shape. Will buy again.

Absolutely beautiful dress. Wellade and looks more expensive then it is. Sadly I had to return the item as it was too big for me and they don't do a size smaller than a Small. I'm usually a size 8 or 10, 5ft4. I would size a size small is a comfortable size 10, possibly a 12. If they did a smaller size I would definitely have bought it.

Although I would say this dress was very nice and I found it hard to make a decision between 2 I had ordered. I finally decided to send this dress back (thank you for the refund) as the dress reached below the knee but the inside lining was much higher and showed underwear when sitting down. All in all it was very pretty and good value.

I was quite upset that other sellers didn't have this dress in an XS when I read reviews saying the the S was too big for an 8-10, was thrilled to find this in an XS. It's still quite roomy around the middle, which is good as flapper dresses shouldn't be tight (or have much of a waist at all, this does). Great quality for the price, didn't shed a sequin or bead all night and I wasnt careful at all! Lots of compliments, great product.

Was really surprised by the great quality of this dress. Itâs got a lovely weight to it and fits really well and looks far more expensive with all the bead work and sequin detail. I bought it for an up and coming Gatsby inspired party but I know I will be able to wear it for other formal occasions as this dress is definitely too good to be classed as fancy dress outfit

Lovely dress. Full of sequins and beads and looked great. Fits well. The only reason I didnât give 5 stars is because thereâs a small section on the shoulder that is coming unstitched. Not a major problem, just a slight inconvenience as iâll have to stitch it up.

What a stunning dress! Good quality, it has a nice feel to it and does not look cheap at all! It looks actually quiet expensive!Wore it at a Peaky Blinder 1920 themed horse race and at the after party. I never had a day/night out where women and men walked over to me to tell me how stunning my dress is. Would definitely recommend this dress to my family and friends.I am a UK size 8 and the S was a perfect fit.
