Review on MUXXN Ladies Vintage Sleeves Outdoor by Gary Davis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nicely done; oversized by upper body

I am 5'11" and 110 lbs with a small high waist and hobbit legs. I ordered a gray size smaller. Like other Muxxn dresses I've tried, this one is cropped but seems to fit my waist better (not that low) compared to others. The hips fit well/not too tight but the bodice was huge. There was plenty of extra room in the sleeves and a bust line. I tend to gain weight in my arms so I know they aren't unusually small. I could probably get away with the loose top because of the "suit" style. The skirt was an inch below my knees, which I actually like, but the back vent was shockingly high, even on me. If you're tall, I can see that's a problem. thick and stretchy with a rich matte sheen unfortunately the material is not breathable at all and even with the open neckline and short sleeves you can only wear it in cooler weather. Mine arrived wrinkled and I had trouble laying the collar flat, especially in the back. It just seems like it just takes more weight or size to hang straight instead of flapping up. There is also a problem on the front: the neckline opens above the top button. It needs to be fixed with pins to keep it safe. The buttons feel very solid and securely fastened - not flashy or flimsy like many people make it out to be. They are lined with fabric and match the dress. This will add sophistication to the image. I wish this brand had a very small variant, although I suspect I might have some fit issues on my hips in that case.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Appearance
