The dress was good quality but to small for me.

The dress felt conforable but it made my buldges stand out, even with a girdle. You could see my pany lines. I normally wear a size 12 dress and this dress was a Large. I weigh 156 and am 5' 3. It might have fit better if I had a larger size?

Pros
  • It was nice and comfortable. True to size
Cons
  • It is difficult to find matching shoes and accessories

Cute Style! Just not for me.

Style is really cool. Im an short hourglass with a long body so it was just too short waisted for me & the sleeves were way too puffy for me - kid of linebacker-ish. Love the style on others, just not for my body. Waist hit too high.

Pros
  • The dress comes in multiple colours to suit all tastes
Cons
  • The dress is not very versatile and may only be suitable for formal events

Surprised witg this dress

Complements all day. It is a besutifl dress. Fit well, not overly tight, sturdy stretch materal with quality thickness. I fit like it was custom made. Love the flare bottom. The belt stayed in place and did not twist with sitting or movement. It is a dry clean dress. Paired it with some clear sparkle pumps and a clear square purse(amazon), limited gold jewlery.

Pros
  • The retro style is fun and playful, allowing the wearer to express their personality
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for women who prefer strapless styles

Very Pretty Dress. :-)

I am pleased with the purchase of my new dress! I am 5 feet - 6 inches tall, and weigh 155 lbs; so I ordered the purple dress in a size "L". It fits well; so well that I am thinking about ordering the burgundy one as well! Thanks.

Pros
  • The short sleeves provide coverage and comfort
Cons
  • The dress is not very breathable and may be uncomfortable in hot weather

Clingy yet fabulous

Will the dress accentuate your stomach? Yes.Should you buy it anyway? Also yes!This dress is beautiful: the fabric is stretchy and comfy, the details are stunning, and the fit is fantastically retro.

Pros
  • Women
Cons
  • There are limited color options available

Cute Dress on my review.

This is a super cute dress. Nice material. The only thing I really didn't care for was the belt. It a little cheesy but not bad. I ordered a M. I like my clothes to fit/snug the curves. I am 5'6 and 165-170 lbs. 38DD breast size.

Pros
  • The dress is made of soft and comfortable materials
Cons
  • The dress is not a good option for people on a budget

Best in Class Late 1930s Retro-style Dress

This is a fabulous piece for the price. I got it for a late 30s dance performance, and it was perfect. The strong shoulders are really classic, especially paired with the belted waist and little flare in the skirt.Practically speaking, it's a dream piece; it washed up perfectly in my machine and only needed a light steaming after drip drying.Sizing wise, it was a little tight in the hips (for my use) but I was swimming in the larger size. For reference, I'm currently 40" 30" and 38&#34…

Pros
  • The dress pairs well with a variety of shoe styles
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for women who prefer more casual styles

Pros
  • The style is timeless and can be worn for years to come
Cons
  • The dress may not be appropriate for more conservative events

This dress feels like a church usher board uniform

Let me begin by saying this dress is nice. It is sexy but the material makes it feel like a church usher board uniform.It is true to size. I wear a 12-14 for reference purposes.

Pros
  • The dress is made of high-quality material, ensuring it will last
Cons
  • The dress has a strange texture that some people may find uncomfortable

Beautiful and classy

I love the stretchy material. The sizing was just perfect. And the material gives - incase you need a little extra stretch. The occasion I bought it for hasn't come yet, and I have narrowed it down to this dress and another dress I bought. So we will see which one I wear. But I can't wait to wear this one to any party or special date!

Pros
  • The dress is formal yet maintains a fun and flirty vibe
Cons
  • The dress is not very stretchy and may not fit well

Design needs fixes in my review

Smell = odorless. Glad this seller didn't drench it in noxious perfume like other sellers.Buckle = cheap. I prefer the fabric covered buckles on their other dresses.Belt is up too high, not at natural waist, detracts from the geometry of the stitching, is too loose, and adds bulk without cinching things in like a belt should. I'm just going to cut it off when I take in the waist.Waist is too wide and so it bunches up awkwardly. Not friendly for hourglass figures.Bust is a tad loose but will be…

Pros
  • The dress is easy to wear and comfortable for all-day wear
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for women with broad hips

Better quality than expected, accurate fit if you're careful

Vibrant color, shockingly well made for the price. Fabric is a little thick, as others have noted, and sleeves are very large on my small arms. I carefully followed the MANUFACTURER's size chart (NOT Revain's!) and it fits well, a little big in the chest for me, but there are bras that will help that! I ordered a medium, and am usually a 4-6 in dresses. The belt is not really a belt, as it is attached at the sides of the dress, and there is no adjustment possible to it, but it fits the dress…

Pros
  • The dress is perfect for a photo shoot or modeling job
Cons
  • The dress is not very practical and may not be worn often

Use measurements/size guide provided to get best fit

This fits really nicely! Very happy with the dress. Fabric is, yes, a synthetic, but it has a nice little stretch to it, while not having any issues with being too see-through. very happy. but allow time to steam out the wrinkles.

Pros
  • It is super comfy, stretchy but not tight, flattering style.
Cons
  • The sleeves are too short for some people

In love! But don't size up

I love this dress! I bought it in navy blue for my boyfriend's Navy Retirement. It has that retro look I wanted. I sized up do to the reviews, there is no need. I actually have to have mine taken in. Will post pictures when I have them

Pros
  • Dresses
Cons
  • The dress may not fit well for women with broad shoulders

It’s heavier material, beautifully made

This dress looks just like I thought it would, I’m pleased with it. I wish the material was a bit lighter, as I live in Florida. It fits perfectly as described!

Pros
  • The dress is perfect for a wedding or bridesmaid outfit
Cons
  • The dress may be too long for women who prefer tea-length dresses

Very Pretty Dress good for me

This was an exact replacement of a dress we'd used in a show several years back. Long story short, the zipper on the first dress broke and it was cheaper to replace the dress than replace the zipper. Stretchy material and a nice deep color made this replacement a no-brainer. Flattering to the figure and stretches enough to look nice and still allow you to breathe.

Pros
  • Good quality, fit is good and minimum stretch,
Cons
  • The dress is only available in limited sizes

Cute but shows everything!

This is a really, really cute dress. I feel a little bit uncomfortable in it because it really does show all your curves. I really like modest dresses. I am 5’4 and 125 pounds. I bought a Medium. I might have been more comfortable in a large, but I’m not returning it. Maybe if I just wear it on a night out with my husband I will feel fine.

Pros
  • 13 x 11.8 x 1.8 inches; 14.11 Ounces
Cons
  • The dress is not machine washable

I'm 5'3 and about 170 I order a Medium. Every time I put in on Everyone tells me they love it . Random people. the tie is weird beside that I love the dress.

Pros
  • The retro 1950s design adds a touch of vintage glamour
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for women with larger thighs

Derby dress for my opinion

Love this dress! I got so many compliments and wore to a Kentucky Derby party. Shipped fast too. When I first tried on I worried it might be too long but then I tried on with shoes and it was just right. For reference I’m 5’4” about 158lbs, 38C, 32in waist and bought the XL. Fit just right & not too tight. Wore on a hot day and was comfortable and fabric felt nice.

Pros
  • A uniform dress for church
Cons
  • Be prepared to break out the iron very easily after wear or wash.

Buy a size down due to stretch

The design and colour are great. The only problem is that the material is very stretchy. May need to buy a size down. I will have to adjust to fit perfectly.

Pros
  • Has some stretch and the white is not sheer. Fits a curvy figure surprisingly well. Worth the cost.
Cons
  • The length of the dress may not be suitable for everyone
