Wowza!

I was scared this dress wouldn’t fit right based on reviews saying it runs small. I’m 5”3, 172 pounds, 34H bra and the top fits perfectly in size large. If anything it is ever so slightly big at the straps. I carry my weight on my hips and buttocks and my waist is 30 inches, if that helps anyone trying to figure out if this dress will work for them. I’m not sure if I will keep it yet as it may be a bit too low cut for the event I need it for, but my first reaction when I tried it on was “Wowza! I look good!”

Courtney Sequin Lace Cocktail Dress

The netting on the dress was too much and did not lay well on the dress. Also the netting had a lot of static. Returned the dress. Really disappointed in the way the dress fell on my body. Had planned to wear it to a New Years Party.

Runs very small

Beautiful dress. Purchased for a wedding in NYC. I’m 5’10”. 170lbs. 36A cup. Normally wear a 8-10 and M/L. Ordered a Large. Length was good but wouldn’t zip across my back. Ordered an XL which was also too small. Also tried a XXL which I got zipped but it was tough. Couldn’t justify the poor fit for the price.

Very pretty, but runs quite small

This is a very pretty, classic dress with a retro 1950s sort of feel that looks just like the photos. Unfortunately, it runs very small. I'm 5'3, 122 lbs and normally wear a small or 4/6, but I couldn't even zip this up. Not sure if I'll exchange it or try a different style entirely, but wanted to post a review so others know about the sizing issue.

Gorgeous & comfortable

Beautiful dress! Received many compliments when I wore it to a wedding. Low-cut in front so wore a similar style bra. Comfortable, flattering and works well for hourglass types, as it accentuates the waist and disguises the hips. Only thing missing is pockets!

LOVE this Dress!

I really like this dress! It's a bit heavy and makes you sit up straight, but I loved wearing it to a black tie event. It's so pretty and I received many compliments. I felt beautiful wearing it! Highly recommend.

Disappointed

Not as good as I expected. I have bought several dresses from the brand but this one had an awkward fit in the upper body. Returned it!

Glamorous and Fun

Wonderful dress! I look forward to wearing this for many occasions after wearing it for the first time as a wedding guest. I received many compliments both from young and older people. It's comfortable to sit in, walk in, and dance in. It's easy to pack in a suitcase - I folded it up and put it in a 2 gallon Ziploc bag and squeezed the air out. It was fine!

Perfect NYC Black Lace Cocktail Dress

I loved everything about this dress, sexy sophisticated, classy. The perfect dress for a New York City celebration. Everyone complimented me on the dress and I wasn’t the Birthday girl. It was the hit of the party

Simply Stunning.

The dress looked great on me. Would have loved an extra inch around the waist, given the fact that I'm a Plus Size girl. Exercise can help here. Plan to wear it in August. I have time to lose a few pounds.
