True to size for plus size, excellent value for the money!
True to size for plus size, excellent value for the money! I got this dress because I love dresses, and skulls and I find that a more retro style dress is flattering for plus sizes.I honestly did not hold high hopes it would actually fit, but it did! I often run into dresses and other plus size garments from brands on on Amazon that say plus size but that are not actual true to size plus size~ this one is. I have also ordered 3 other dresses from this brand since this first one was such a good fit.Zip closure in the back. It does come with a satin sash that you can tie in a bow around your waist, I skip it as for me personally it doesn't flatter my body shape when I use it. I looked through the brands size chart and ordered a 3X based on measurements. And it fits just as expected. My measurements are 46/50/50 (I am a 46FF UK/$6H US wide set chest). I have plenty of room in the chest without feeling squished and the dress is comfortable enough for all day wear! It is sleeveless so it pairs well wit cardigans and boleros too.I have many designer pinup or 1950's styles dresses and skirts that were more than triple the cost of this one. The material/fabric is very similar, and the overall quality is very similar as well. Making this dress an excellent value for the money. I did not need an underskirt with this one, it was just a flowy as I needed it to be without adding an underskirt.I am short, I am only 5 foot 2 so dresses do stop much lower on me rather than a tea length like they would on anyone taller. Even with a 2.5 inch heel on my shoes this does fall a little lower than mid-calf on me. Highly recommend for anyone plus size who likes dresses. It is very comfortable, check the brands size chart for a good fit. The dress does have some give to it, but not enough that I would suggest sizing down if you are in between sizes.Tip: To get wrinkles out from shipping hang the dress in your bathroom and run the shower on hot until the bathroom get's steamy. This will loosen the wrinkles out if you do not have a garment steamer.

Runs small. Yellow is dark yellow.
Dress was too snug at bust and waist despite my measurements being mid-range in their size chart. Also, I got the yellow and it is a dark yellow, darker than what I wanted, but if the dress would have fit I would’ve kept it. Beware though, this fabric is going to be very wrinkle prone. The dress itself is a nice style, I was going to put a yellow petticoat underneath it anyway so the clear stripe wouldn’t have been an issue.

Perfect dress!
Wore to a Mom/Son event last weekend. Arrived in 2 days. Recommended size fit perfectly. Great dress for dancing, twirling. I’m 5,2” and it hit right below the knee. Got a ton of compliments. Material was light which was great for the 80° weather.

Pretty dress, but...
We bought this dress for my daughter's middle school winter dance. It is a cute dress with a nice fit, so for appearance, I give it a 5. The reasons for the 3, however, are because it didn't have any loops for the sash, so it kept sliding up and down while she was dancing, AND it was shipped as and remained after wash a wrinkled mess with fabric that was very challenging to iron. We probably spent a good 45 minutes with the iron on the hottest setting and still didn't get the wrinkles fully out. We also took a steamer to it afterwards, as well, and while it looked better, we never got the dress totally smooth. So, overall, an attractive dress, but it needs belt loops for the sash, and plan on spending a lot of time dewrinkling it if you purchase. Definitely would reccomend adding a petticoat, too. That definitely completed the look!

Love This Dress!
I love everything about this dress. It’s so comfortable. I like the fabric, the style, fit and the comfort. I added a tulle petticoat with it and it looks great with that also. You can wear different belts with it if you want. It is just so classy. It’s true to size. I ordered my recommended size Snall & it fits perfectly.I’m 5’ 4” & 98 lbs.

Good choice, nice material, just needed a good ironing.
Dress turned out to be a great choice. While I did change the color of the ribbon to add some contrast got many compliments. Size was spot on. I am smaller busted could have been altered a bit. but a 2x and fit was good, wasn’t too short.

Lovely dress
Love the material. Put a petticoat under it for that extra puffiness. Bought for a funeral. Will buy more in other colours. Fits nice. The material is a bit creasy I’ll need to iron it but other than that, nothing bad to say!
