[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This style is absolutely fabulous. It feels more fitted and makes me feel curvaceous and confident. True to size. Zipper looks great up or down or anywhere in between - I love that about Marcella garments.

Way too tight
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My previous orders fit perfectly so I ordered the same size. This dress however was so tight, even around my arms, that I could barely pull it back off. The only place it was loose was the colllar and it wasnt an attractive lay at all. Unfortunately will have to return it.

Wanted Chic, Got Sausage Casing-Runs Small!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this dress—I mean, I was rooting for it. For reference, I’m 5'7", 130 lbs, 32C. After reading reviews about the clingy fabric, I sized up to a medium like a responsible online shopper… gold star for me.
Unfortunately, the dress had other plans. The bust was still stretched too tight near the bottom of the zipper and under the arms, creating some less-than-flattering puckering—like it was trying to breathe and couldn’t quite manage. And when I say it highlighted every curve, I mean every curve… the flattering ones and the “maybe let’s keep that between us” ones.
The cowl neck also didn’t have that effortlessly draped, polished look from the photos. It felt more “meh” than “model-off-duty. ”
I think this dress would look amazing on someone with a straighter figure. On me, though, it gave more “overstuffed black sausage casing”.
This is the third return out of four items, and I’m noticing a pattern—they seem to run small. To be fair, my hips are just barely over the small size chart, but my waist and chest are solidly within it… hence the medium. Still didn’t save me here.
Sadly, this one’s going back too.

Amazing
This dress is gorgeous and has the perfect fit. This is my all time favorite piece yet and I own 6 pieces of Marcella clothing. I usually wear a small or medium but I could tell I need to M and it was the right choice

So many compliments
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this and received so many compliments wearing it. After reading other reviews, I opted for a size L (I’m 5’5” and 155 lbs). It’s the perfect size. Very flattering. I love the color too.

read the reviews!
Unfortunately I didn’t pay too much attention to the reviews. I am 5’11” and 150 lbs. and normally a 6/8 and the medium was sooo tight. Loved the material. Sending back. May reorder…
