Review on Stunning Empire Maxi Dress: Perfect For Cocktail Parties And Elegant Evenings! by Brett Martinez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent for the price!

I bought this dress in white but dyed it to wear as a bridesmaid dress and everyone gave me lovely compliments!I’m 5’6” and 210 lbs in this photo, with a smaller bust (36B-C) and larger arms/hips. It was a little long but I wore heels for the ceremony so it worked out. While I am wearing a large here, I debated sending it back for a medium. my bust is small and didn’t quite fill out the dress, but my arms are bigger and I worried that the medium would be too tight. Due to time constraints, I just stuck with the large and used dress tape to make sure the bust wouldn’t move around.*FYI for DIY’ers: I needed a green dress (any shade) so I thought I could dye it. it was supposed to turn out a dark green but came out a very light sage due to polyester not taking dye well. If you need a light dress, buy dark dye - I probably could’ve kept trying to get it darker, but didn’t have time. (Luckily, the rest of the girls in the wedding party were dressed in a variety of green so I fit right in.)Overall, I am happy with this purchase!

Pros
  • Made with a blend of materials that feels soft and comfortable against the skin
Cons
  • The dress may be difficult to accessorize
