A "Must Have" Purchase
Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2016
I received so many compliments on this dress. The cut compliment my shape and is extremely comfortable. I love it!!!!
Size chart is close - Pretty good deal for the money, but don't expect PUG quality!

I am 5' 2", weigh 128 and bought a size small. The length from the waist is 25" and falls 1-2 inches below my knee (will depend on your legs). My waist is 29 1/2 and bust 36 at fullest part (32 D) and I also wear between a 4-6 dress. The small fit me great except for being just a teeny bit tight across the bust...not enough to matter though. The waist was a perfect fit even though I'm 1 inch bigger than the size chart indicated for a small. If you do not wear larger than a 34 C bra I think the small will fit. I do not like my dresses baggy, but then I dry clean vs washing them so i do not worry about shrinkage or fading.The fabric is a medium weight cotton blend (most likely 97% cotton, 3% elastane) which allows for a little bit of stretch and is my favored for my retro look dresses. As someone else mentioned, the waist runs slightly high, but again, not enough to matter - I put a 1" belt on and it was not at all noticeable (I am NOT short waisted).The construction is "okay" and the bodice is not lined, like most of my better dresses, but considering the price, it's not a bad deal and yes, I am pretty picky! One more note....some commented in their reviews that it is sewn a little odd so that the dress lifts when you raise your arms...this is true, but then I don't plan to play volleyball in it!Photos were taken right out of the package, before pressing.
Wore This for a Theater Production, Felt So Confident! :D

I needed a dress to play Hero in a period adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing. A very feminine and classy character. Being a plus-sized actress, I was determined to find one I felt good being on display in. This one shipped so fast (tried dress Lily first - won't make that mistake again). Not an absolutely perfect fit, roomy in the shoulders and the waist wasn't quite what I'd wanted. But still. Such an easy, comfortable, yet sturdy feel. Just enough stretch. I still needed a good shapewear top to avoid back fat, but around the front and waist it was nicely fitted and flattering. *Our costumers added the little band of fabric to the bottom hem and some shoulder pads, but no other alterations were made*.As somebody who hasn't always felt beautiful, especially in the theater world, I was SO grateful for this little number.
Fit it odd but the fabric is cute

Hmmm . . . Not sure where I am on this dress. I ordered the pink print and it is super cute. But the fit is odd. I'm 5'10 and normally wear a 16. The waist is fine, but the top is huge. It buckles a little at the neckline and the arm holes gape wide open. I would have to alter the top a lot to get it to fit. The bigger problem for me tho is it is stinky. Maybe it's sat in the packaging for too long. If it fit properly, I would definitely try washing it to get the odor out. I can see it being really cute on someone who would be able to fill up the top or who likes it enough to have it tailored. I'll be returning this one.
Loved this dress!!!

I am so happy I purchased this dress. I was always skeptical of buying clothing online, but the dress seemed so pretty that I went for it and I'm so glad I did! I got SO many compliments and it fit perfectly. I ordered an XL, I wear a size 14-16 in dresses. I did not have to have any alterations. Thank you for my lovely dress!
So disappointed
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2017
So I had been eyeing this dress for a while, and I finally purchased it for nearly 30$. First of all, it arrived one day late even though it was a prime purchase (a first for me to receive something late from prime), but that's not a huge deal. But.... My heart sank when I picked up the package and it weighed about as much as a rice cake. Super thin light material, but I thought, okay; I can live with this. Then I realized the color of the dress was nowhere near the vibrant blue in the picture that I had fallen in love with. The color is very light and faded. Also the print doesn't look as intricate and beautiful as the one in the photo. But the worst part of all, is that it is way shorter than I expected. It looks like they ran out of material so they decided to give me a mini dress. Okay, so a mini dress is a bit of an exaggeration, but this is quite short and I'm about 5'6, it hits around 2-3 inches above my knees. A very awkward length on me. I wanted to love this but unfortunately it's going to be returned. Maybe I would keep it if I had paid less, but for 30$ this is not what it should be. I hope the return process goes smoothly. :( :( :(
Adorable vintage inspired

Adorable. I ordered the size small but wish there was an extra small option. The bust area fit just fine but the waist was too big for me. My bust is 32c and my high waist is 27/28 inches. I just added a belt to help fix it. Price was good. Quality is good but not excellent- but expected at this price point. Material has some stretch but i wouldnt stretch it too far. Lovely pattern and color. Material is not thin but not thick either. I wore a slip underneath because i felt more comfortable that way. I tried adding a petticoat but it did not look good because this dress does not have a full circle skirt. This dress is very versatile. I can pair it with heels and wear it on easter or to a bridal shower and also wear it to a vintage inspired event.
Cute dress! Looks perfect on me! Dress is larger than it listed in the size chart, so choose a smaller size
Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2017
I am 5 4", ~120 lb, I bought an S size and it fits me perfect. The size chart for this dress is under-estimated (the dress is larger that it listed in the size chart). I think my waist is ~29.5 inch, that my chest is ~34.5 inches, so according to the size chart, I should buy an medium. But I saw a lot of comments the dress was big. So I decided to by a small one, and it fits me percent! The design and the color is so nice!One thing to notice is the back top is too big. It buckles a little at my back neckline. But I don't have much concern about it because I always let my hair down, so no one will see that. The arm holes fit perfect on me. Overall, I love it a lot! I don't often leave comments on Amazon products, but I like this dress so much so I would like to share my experience to others!
