Love the fit of this dress for me

I just bought this dress and I love it. I came online after getting home from the store to write a review and was surprised to see the poor ratings. I am 5'2" and weigh 160lbs. I cannot say to what size to order online, because I don't know my normal size (recently lost a bunch of weight) other dresses I was trying on today were mediums, 8s, 10s, and a couple larges. This dress is so pretty though! I will probably be get it hemmed shorter a bit, but will be doing no other alterations. I added some photos from the dressing room. Im very excited to wear this to an upcoming wedding!

Terrible fit, terrible shame

I was SO excited to get this dress and try it on for an upcoming wedding I'm attending. The bust is SO ill-fitted, baggy in the arm pits, some how made my chest look half its size, and made my shoulders look twice as big. The pockets seem like they'd be a nice touch, but the way they are constructed into the skirt make the pleating stick really far out, creating a crazy (for lack of a better term) silhouette. I couldn't get this dress packaged up fast enough to send back, which is an awful shame because the material and color are so beautiful. Reference: I'm 5'11", ordered a size 16 in plum

Pretty for upcoming weddings!

I love this dress. I wore it to a black tie wedding. I got lots of compliments. The color is so pretty in person. The dress is very well made for the price. The fabric is beautiful, I am tall and it is floor length.

Absolutely loved this dress. Agree with other reviews that’s the top runs large, but it actually worked perfectly with a push up bra. It was so flattering and fun! Perfect for formal attire wedding guest. Got compliments all night long.

Runs large

I was so excited about this dress, but when it came in it was way too big. I’m usually always an XS or sometimes S with size D bust. I could not fill out this dress at all, the straps were too long, and the waist was even too big. Could’ve been my lighting but it also seemed a bit darker than in the picture to me.

Not true to size

This dress runs extremely large in the bust area. I am 5’5” 105lbs, and I purchased the XXS. The dress fit okay in the waist. However, the top of the dress was so large it sat below my bust line. The straps were also placed oddly far apart, and so they wouldn’t even stay on my shoulders. The dress itself is absolutely beautiful, but it would take someone with an xxs waist and a bra size of a c or larger to even be able to wear this dress.

Beautiful dress bad Fit

This dress is so beautiful. The print and fit is unique and I wanted it to work so badly. I took it to a seamstress to refit the bodice. Honestly if you have larger boobs it’s not going to fit. The space where the boobs sit is soooo small. Don’t recommend this dress unless you’re willing to take it somewhere to fit properly
