Charlene Ruffle Gown

I had to buy this literally last minute for a black tie wedding and I had very low expectations. However, with high heels (was a bit long on my 5’3 frame) it fit great and the color was stunning. I see some folks having issues with sizing but it did fit me pretty well. For reference Im a solid size 4, leaning to a 2. I do think it runs snug. I am a 34D which I mention because some people have issues with the bust fitting properly.

I purchased this gown for a Mardi Gras Gala, and it was an absolute showstopper! The dress fits beautifully and is incredibly comfortable. It runs true to size overall, but I did need to size up to an X-Large to accommodate my larger bust (36G), as I typically wear a Large. The only minor alterations I made were shortening the straps and the length, but after that, it was perfect. The fabric is sturdy yet has a nice stretch, making it both flattering and easy to move in. The ruffles add a gorgeous, dramatic touch, and the slit gives just the right amount of elegance and allure. I felt confident and glamorous the entire night and received so many compliments!

I purchased this dress online and am sad to say I am returning it. It was very tight across the ribs (difficult to take a full breath) while the fabric was loose and floppy where my breast are. I'm a 34C but would say I need to be at least a DD to fill the fabric properly there. The material is wonderful and feels well made but it just didn't work with my shape.

I can’t believe how frumpy I looked in the size Small. I’m usually a size small or XS. It was not flattering AT ALL. I was surprised I didn’t fill out the chest area because I have a large bust. MAYBE the size XS or XXS would work, but the dress is giving cheap vibes so I don’t know if I’m going to make the effort to keep trying different sizes of it for the wedding I’m going to. TL;DR You should definitely get a size down from what you are thinking of ordering!!

Ordered for my anniversary and it will be going back. The fabric looks and feels so cheap. The sizing is all off. Not the biz.

Fit perfectly and was so so flattering!
