soziemrsaugie - 2 days ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little confused by this item because in the picture the model has it on backwards. She has the low dip in her chest area however, when I purchased the dress, I noticed that that is where the tag is so I believe the dip is supposed to be on the back and the higher neck is for the front . Maybe I have it wrong but that’s the way the tag is sewn in anyways I really like this unique dress I love that. It is ruched on the top half. It’s very lightweight. Perfect for a warm summer afternoon. I’m typically a size 14 ordered this in an extra large and it fit me very well. I received an incentive to write this review.

Comfortable fit but longer waist is awkward

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried on this dress in my usual size medium and it fit comfortably true to size. The dress is stretchy in the torso, making it very forgiving. I am 5’4 and about 140 pounds and I was pleasantly surprised that the length works well for me, as I often have an issue with full length dresses being too long. I did feel like the longer torso style looked a bit awkward on me, but overall the material is comfortable and breathable. I received an incentive to write this review.

Really pretty dress, but the model is wearing it backwards lol! I’m 5’2” and the dress falls right at my ankles. The shirring on the top is very flattering.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked this dress more than I thought I would. It isn’t something I would normally try on but I figured why not. I loved the neckline and the dropped waist was a lot more flattering than I thought it would be. I also liked the color more than I thought I would. The burnt orange will be perfect for fall with a denim jacket. This will be a great teacher dress. Shown in medium. I am 5’6” and usually wear a size 6-8.

Material looks and feels cheap

soziebizzymom29 - 10 days ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered this women's dress online. I really wanted to like this dress. It looked super cute online in the photos. I think the first problem is that the model is wearing it backwards in the photo. When I tried this on, the neck goes up so high that it's actually tight and uncomfortable. Usually smocked material is forgiving and hides your flaws, but this one actually accentuated my middle and made it look like my tummy and chest was bigger than it was. The material is thin and feels pretty rough. Not a desirable fabric. The print is pretty and I do like the color. I'm wearing a size XS which I can usually wear in dresses. It fit throughout the hips, but it felt tight through the arms, chest and stomach. I'm a 34B for reference. For the price, this dress was not worth what I paid. There's no lining, no pockets, and really just felt kind of cheap. I received an incentive to write this review.

The material is beautiful, a great transition piece from summer to fall. HOWEVER if you have any bit of bloat or a tummy, this dress is not flattering. I wanted to love it so bad but unfortunately returned.

It's ok, but the color is duller than it appeared in the online picture. If the skirt was lined and had pockets, I'd give it 4 stars. Since the style is cute, I'll wear it, but I'm not sure it was worth the price without lining and pockets.

In the pic, the model is wearing the blue dress backwards - that's where the label/tag is located. I'm 5' and 125 lbs. Purchased the blue dress in XS. It fits perfectly. Will pair with a light cardigan/shrug.

Perfect dress- looks great on me (I am 5’11). Very summery and lightweight- I like that you can wear it two ways. Only wish it had POCKETS.

Lightweight pretty summer dress

Sarahbeeee - 22 days ago, Verified purchaser
Funny, in the picture the model is wearing it backwards. The high part supposed to come up in the front and the back is meant to dip down, according to how they sewed in the tag. When you wear it the correct way it’s SUPER cute and modest.

Really pretty even if you’re petite, I’m 5’2. However, one of the sleeves puckers out. It’s 100% cotton, so that is nice!! It’s true to size, I’m a medium 145lbs. Nice stretch to it and comfortable.
