Review on πŸ‘— Milumia Women's Stripe V-Neck Maxi Dress with Half Sleeves and Button Up Split - Perfect for Parties by Michelle Watson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very cute but very cheap workmanship

I like how this dress looks. The dress is light and falls well. I love how the length glides across the floor (I'm 5ft 7in). I washed the dress in the cold and air dried it and it did not shrink. Interestingly, the reviews note that it somehow compresses the heat used. I will be careful with this dress! I've been waiting to write this review after a full day at work to see how the dress looks. I was impressed that it didn't wrinkle that much and was very comfortable. The obvious downside is that this dress is very cheaply made. I'm curious if it will hold up through the summer. The drawstring came undone at the waist, there were lots of loose stitches around the buttons and I had a random piece of fabric sticking out of my side. I was able to fix it by cutting it with scissors. I think the price for such a cheap dress should be between $15-$20, so I think it's a bit overpriced. In terms of fit, I usually wear a size 14-16 and my bust is 36DD. Also, I carry most of the weight on my hips and back. I ordered XXL and found it too big in the chest and waist; but it sits well on my hips. I think I'll sew the waist to make it smaller. Despite being cheap I liked it so much that I ordered a second one in beige but decided to downsize to XL so hopefully it fits better. I think this dress fits many body types but be aware you may need scissors and a sewing kit to make it wearable. The imperfections didn't matter to me because I can sew and it looks really great! It also makes a great beach cover up. Finally, I wear a black bodysuit underneath just in case so it shows through at work.
