Review on Vintage Off-Shoulder Dress For Women - A Classic Bodycon Pencil Piece For Homecoming, Work, And Cocktail Events by Amy Maeva

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cute, But Desperately Wrinkled

This is a very cute dress. The fabric is a thick, somewhat stiff cotton stretch. I love the bird pattern. It fit me fairly well, and accentuated my waist. I'm 5'1" 110 pounds with a high waist and hobbit legs. This came just below my knee, which is what I wanted. The bodice is nicely lined, there is a tidy side zipper, and elastic stretch sewn into the off-shoulder neckline.Now for the bad:It arrives TRAGICALLY wrinkled. As in, possibly beyond redemption. The neckline is a bit wider than it should be, as others have mentioned. Mostly this manifests in the back/neck area. It pooches out. Also. I have a very small chest. If you are well-endowed, it might not fit your chest. Basically, it's tight around the chest but loose around the shoulders.I ordered the burgundy at the same time. It is a different material, sort of slippery slinky knit. It flatters my rear better (the bird-print is stiff and wrinkles up when my spine curves) but was even more horribly wrinkled. Also, the shoulders in the burgundy are looser. It came packaged differently from the bird-print.a cheap clear bag that looked like someone had already tried it on and sent it back. Which is what I may be doing, unfortunately.Still. Two very cute and flattering dresses. Seems to be well-constructed.
