Review on Off Shoulder Cocktail Skater Dress With Short Sleeves And High Low Hem For Women By Sidefeel by Freddy Hammonds

Revainrating 3 out of 5

White dress is not great. Maybe other colors are better?

I was really excited about this dress because of all the positive reviews, so I was surprised at how much I didn't like the dress when I received it. I ordered it in white to wear as part of a Halloween costume. Maybe the colored dresses are better, but, despite its "thick" material (which, I admit, I was impressed by at first), the white one is completely see-through. I can totally see my bra and my skin through the fabric. Also, the front of the dress is extremely short. Thankfully it gets longer as it wraps around which makes it wearable, but I am going to have to be cautious dancing in this dress haha. I'm 5'7" and the front center part of the dress is only a few inches below my crotch. But maybe it will hang longer on girls who aren't curvy like I am? I will say, I ordered a size based on my measurements and the fit is great, aside from the length. The waist falls nicely and is flattering. The sleeves don't stay low on my shoulders as much as the girl in the product photo, they landed more like right below my shoulders, higher up. I think I would like this dress a lot more if it was in black or a darker color, because aside from the length and the see-through material I really like the fit. So perhaps the colored dresses are the way to go - all the girls who posted pics in them looked lovely!

Pros
  • The way it fits. I wore to my granddaughter's Sweet 16 birthday party.
Cons
  • The high-low hemline may not be flattering on all body types
