Review on Celmia Women'S Autumn Solid Loose Long Maxi Dress Cotton Caftan by Steven Asthana

Awkward Silhouette: Being Returned

I wholeheartedly agree with the August 2018 review which likened the dress to an Oompa Loompa look. It appears that there are no problems with the actual construction of the garment, but I found the silhouette extremely unflattering.The Measurement at the hip is 44" but the pockets stick out to 76". The fabric has the texture of linen rather than cotton and is not what I would define as "soft" so it doesn't drape well and the extra fabric protrudes at the sides. The neckline on the dress I ordered was a "boatline," which I prefer, rather than "round" as described. Additionally, laundry instructions are to Hand Wash and Line Dry which I did not see in the product description. (Hand Wash is not in my vocabulary.)I am 5'5" tall, normally wear size 8-10 and the Large fit well, except I felt it was a little short (for my preference). I also tried the medium but it was really small.

Pros
  • The dress is a great option for those who want to experiment with fashion without stepping out of their comfort zone
Cons
  • Too juvenile for older women
