Collins Lace Long Sleeve Body-Con Cocktail Dress

This fit me to a T and is made well. The fabric covered button detail around the waist, zippers at the wrists, iridescent sequins that subtly catch the light, nude-tone underneath, and perfect length (just above the knee - I'm 5'5") - all combine for a darling dress that can be worn to an event or a date night. (The only flaw is the slight pucker at the bottom of the back zipper, but I'm sure Nordstrom can make a slight alteration to make it lie flat.) My husband loves it too! If you're middle aged - it's slightly reminiscent of the 60's - which makes it all the more fun to wear! Great buy - especially on sale!

Dress is beautiful but has a few quirks to it. It bunches in the back due to the zipper so it looks kind of off near your butt. The sleeves are very long they cover my hand entirely but that may be because I don’t have longer arms. I’m 5’2, 36B, and weigh 145. Im not big chested, have wide hips, thick thighs and big bottom. Normally a size 6/S-M and it was very loose throughout and not fitted. Framed my waist ok but loose everywhere else. Maybe if I had sized down to a small?! Also, the shoulders look weird. They’re way up there. Overall, expected it to be a nicer fit even though it is aesthetically pleasing.

I tried on the small in the store and it was tight across the back so they ordered the medium. For reference I’m 5’3” and 120 lbs and usually wear a size 4. I received the medium and it didn’t fit right since it was big on top. It also had several sequins missing and the pattern was off. I had to rerun it and wouldn’t recommend it, sadly.
