Review on Summer Ruffle Maxi Dress With Pockets For Women - Off Shoulder, Casual & Beachy By VERABENDI by Andrew Roll

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pair with some good shapewear!

Bought this to wear for an engagement shoot. I had recently gained some weight, so it's possible my shapewear was too small or just not great to begin with, but it kept riding up as we were walking around. When we got the photos back, I was surprised at how fat I looked in some of the pictures! Mostly in photos taken from the side and where the fabric was being pulled. The fabric is lightweight, so when it wasn't draping just right, you could see underwear lines. From the front, it was a pretty flattering dress, though. It was super comfortable and I barely had to adjust the shoulders at all, which was nice. I plan to wear the dress again - this time with better shapewear underneath! I always read reviews for sizing info, so for reference, I normally wear a 10/12 in pants and I ordered a Large in the purple grey. Measurements (done myself so may be a smidge off) - Bust 39", Waist 34", Hips 48".

Pros
  • The dress is affordable for its high-quality design
Cons
  • Ruffles may add unnecessary bulk to curves
