flattering fit
I normally don’t like jersey dresses as I prefer structure. But the shoulder pads on this dress are everything. They make the waist look tiny and the body doesn’t get lost in the material as it might with some maxi dress styles. So comfortable for the casual existence that has been since last year. Can be dressed up with a belt and dressed down with sneakers.

Huge Shoulderpads
I wanted to love this dress bc it was simple yet cute and I loved the 80’s vibe with the shoulder pads. Unfortunately, on me, the shoulder pads were too big and wide, causing them to fall off my shoulders, making them look off center. The beige is a pretty color. IMO, I also felt the sizing ran big. Usually a M, I had to try a size S and even those shoulders were huge. Sadly, not a hit on me but is soft and simple.

I was unsure about the shoulder pads but they help make this dress..it has an elastic snitched waist- def can dress it up or dress down..I’m pretty “hippy” and the M fit perfectly and the dress is a nice soft material.wish it came in better colors

flattering dress
I tried this dress in store today because of the buttery soft material. I didn’t realize it had shoulder pads until I got to the fitting room. I figured since it’s already in the fitting room, let’s just try it on. I was really pleasantly surprised. This dress hid my covid weight gain and very comfy to wear. I am 5’2” and 120lbs and xs was perfect.

Perfect evening black dress
The material on this dress is very soft and comfy. It does come with shoulder pads which works for me by slimming me down somewhat. I can't wait to pair it with some sandals. I'm 5'5 in height and 180lbs. for reference.

Perfect Summer Dress
I wasn’t sure if this dress would be flattering on me because it doesn’t look like it has much shape, but OMG it is my new favorite dress! I am 5’6, 190lbs and 38D… the shoulder pads give this dress a beautiful statuesque look and it just drapes beautifully on the body. I wore a short slip to help hide the underwear outline and it worked! The material is nice and thin. Perfect for summer. I got it in grey and size L. I’m going back for the other colors!!!

Cute and comfy!
I rarely write reviews but I just love this dress so I am. The shoulder pads make the dress!! It’s super soft too. Stylish but also basic.
