Review on DRESSTELLS Vintage Tea Dress: Perfect Cocktail Fit Flare Dress For Church With 3/4 Sleeves by Denise Rose

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice dress--but not what's shown

The dress turned out nicely, thank goodness, because there was no time to return it and get another. Because it was NOT what was described or shown in the product description. The color was similar. The fabric content was 95% cotton, 5% spandex rather than the nylon/spandex as advertised. It was VERY wrinkly, as you would expect with cotton. Fortunately, a good wash and dry took care of most of the wrinkles. It does seem to be a good quality cotton, because it's a good dress weight and the wrinkles do come out and the fabric didn't shrink. It has a little stretch, but not as much as you'd expect with nylon or polyester--which is worrisome with something that only comes in S, M, L sizing. Still, it fit my daughter well enough. The skirt was nowhere near as full as in the video, and so not as good for dancing. It was right to the knee, rather than below it as you see in the picture. The bodice/neckline was very different--a scoop neck rather than a vee neck. The dress had cap sleeves rather than wide gathered straps, as shown. I gave it 3 stars because it was not what was described and advertised, but it was still good quality and my daughter still liked it and wore it to the dance. *The belt was purchased separately, it did not come with the dress.

Pros
  • A little long, however I’m only 5’2 and 135lbs. The medium fit great. True to size
Cons
  • The dress may require special care instructions, restricting the ease of use
