5/5 Look - 3/5 Quality

Pros - Super cute, very flattering, comfortable & versatile on where to lay the sleeves. You can dress it up or downCons - Only wore it once and the stitching is already coming apart. It’s right in the front too so it makes the dress look really cheap now. I don’t think I’ll be able to wear after another wash.It would def be 5 stars if it wasn’t already coming apart.

Pros
  • The dress is perfect for casual outdoor events like picnics, beach days or festivals
Cons
  • The ruffles may be too flamboyant for some occasions

Thick and Petite woman double approved!

So I am 5’2 and a size 11-16 in pants/dresses. I fluctuate a lot. After a nightmare of buying fashion tape on Revain and testing it out only to have it rip off my skin… I wasn’t able to wear my original dress for my graduation. In a hysterical fit, I remembered someone coming into the bar with a dress the found on Revain. So I began to look for other dresses and this dress was not only cute but able to come overnight free of charge! It literally saved the day and it looks more fabulous than the

Pros
  • Shorter than I like but super fun and cute!!!
Cons
  • The ruffles may be too large and overwhelming

More please! for my opinion

I need this dress in every color! I adored how I looked in this dress. I am a short chubby mama of the ripe age of 40 and its taken 40 years to feel comfortable enough to show my legs to this amount. And holy hell did I love it! Did I possibly show a bit more than I wanted when the wind blew? Yup. But I honestly didnt care! This dress is adorable and flattering. Love love love!

Pros
  • Exactly as advertised. Fit perfectly, comfortable
Cons
  • The tie-back may become loose or come undone

Perfect for Short People

This is a perfect dress for short people! I love that it comes above the knees. I usually struggle with photos of dresses on models, because they are usually way taller than me, so the dresses are typically too long.I have an athletic build, muscular arms and broad shoulders, but this dress does a great job working with my shape! The material is nice, so it's perfect for semi-formal or even formal events. The tie in the back gives wiggle room, and there is a bit of stretch to the waist…

Pros
  • Dresses
Cons
  • The dress may require special care when washing or cleaning

Cute and beautiful in my review

I brought this dress for my wedding. It was going to be in a restaurant just with a few people so I wanted to buy something beautiful but simple for the occasion. But ended up being bigger for more than 30 people in a function hall. I wasn’t sure if it would be good for the moment and place because it wasn’t going to be anything small anymore. I had to buy new heels to make it fancy and it worked out great. I just wanted to show that this dress works for any occasion and moment. Perfect…

Pros
  • The dress is available in different fabrics, allowing you to choose a material that suits your preference
Cons
  • The dress may not be breathable enough for hot summer days

Cute fit, great summer or spring dress

Got the dress in light blue, and the sleeves are sheer which wasn’t expected but the rest of the dress is not sheer. It’s a very flattering cut, and highlights curves perfectly. Light weight and perfect for a summer party. I haven’t worn it yet, but I can’t wait to find somewhere to wear it to! Wish they had more color or patterns to choose from to buy in more options. Would recommend the dress. Followed the sizing guide, and it fit perfectly!

Pros
  • Loved the dress but definitely not flattering for anyone with a lil back fat
Cons
  • The fabric may be too thin and see-through

Super cute and comfy

LOVE this dress! Prefect color and fit. Wore it for my engagement pics and have had so many comments and friends wanting the link! ❤️ I always look at reviews but never write one…this dress deserves it! Notice I’m 5’3” and currently 145lb (all weight is different please note…I am a bodybuilder so I am very muscular and I typically wear smalls in most dresses and tops)

Pros
  • The dress is perfect for layering, making it great for transitional seasons
Cons
  • The ruffles may add unnecessary bulk to the dress

Cute but short and uncomfortable

This dress is really cute and it fit well however it’s not meant for anything other than standing still for pictures. It was shorter than expected and I’m only 5’7. Also the sleeves slipped off any time I moved and so did the tie waist. Ultimately I returned because I got it to wear to a wedding and didn’t want to be uncomfortable all night

Pros
  • The lightweight fabric is breathable and comfortable, even during the hottest summer days
Cons
  • The dress may not be versatile enough to wear for multiple events

SUPER CUTE but needed to fiddle with it

I love this dress so much, the style is adorable and I feel like it made me like my body so much more than I normally do (I’m a bit on the heavier side). Only thing is it’s very very short and you’ll likely need to wear shorts underneath if you have a generous bottom. I also needed to wear a bra with the dress, and had to safety pin the elastic on the neckline/sleeves to my bra straps to keep it from showing. Considering how cute the dress is and the quality, I would say it was worth making the

Pros
  • This dress was so pretty as a fairy dress. Great quality and fit.
Cons
  • The lantern sleeves may be too long and get in the way

Good design, each dress is one of a kind.

I'm 5'7", 136-Lbs, athletic build. I ordered the medium. I might gamble a small instead of a medium, to see how that one turns out.I order the "Peacock blue" and "Small floral on white". Both had areas where the stitching wasn't done correctly. You'll notice where the bust meets the waist on the peacock blue, the fabric sags slightly on the bust. When looking closely I noticed the stitches dipped downwards, then back up, causing the fabric to sag/ protrude in that area. Which throws off the…

Pros
  • The mini length makes it perfect for summer
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for those with larger busts

Flattering good for me

I wore this dress for engagement photos and loved it, especially from the front. It fit as expected and was flowy in the skirt and cinched at the waist. The only thing I didn’t like was that the tie back did not hide my bra very well. I was going for a clean, classy look. The knot was over the center of my back where the bra clasps are, but they were still very visible. If you’re looking to totally hide your bra, this dress won’t do it. That’s the only reason I’m taking off a star.

Pros
  • Love the way this dress looks on me, the dress feels very comfortable.
Cons
  • Love the color but length wise just barely passed my bum by 3 inches and I'm 5'2 150lbs.

Loved this outfit!💖💖

Omg loved this dress I got it for my baby shower but I still use it for other events. I feel like a princess every time 💖Truly made me feel great the material was light and breathable I do suggest some shorts underneath just incase you plan dancing in it and or sitting and want to be comfortable I had to because I was super pregnant and super swollen lol Oo and the Bow is super cute in the back it even covered up my bra in the back so it was perfect placement definitely recommend it!

Pros
  • The dress can be worn to a variety of events, from a backyard barbecue to a formal occasion
Cons
  • The lantern sleeves may limit arm movement

I’ve never felt closer to being a Disney Princess

This dress had great reviews which is why I bought it, but like I imagine most women do, I had my doubts that I would really like it on my own body.As soon as I tried this baby on I was blown away. This dress is so flattering. It hangs and flows in all the right places, the tie back allows for a fit up top that’s just right for the individual wearer. My big concern before I purchased was whether it would require a specialty bra as I hate having to buy bras for one particular outfit. Turns out…

Pros
  • My daughter loves this dress. It fits like expected and is very flowy.
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for colder weather

So beautiful and flattering, highly recommend

Where do I start with this dress! It was everything I had hoped for, so here are the pros- Fit me perfectly, I'm 5'7" and about 200lbs ordered an XL. Extremely flattering especially around the waist, I have very wide hips and small boobs and this dress looked amazing.- The color was spot on, maybe a tiny tiny bit lighter but a beautiful shade of green.- It is definitely a short dress, but because of the layering, it felt really comfortable still.- You will not look like a medieval peasant…

Pros
  • The off-shoulder silhouette gives a feminine touch to the dress
Cons
  • The ruffles may look dated or unflattering on some people

Feels kind of awkward in the arms

I like that I can wear this with the sleeves up or down, it’s definitely more flattering down but shows a lot of cleavage that way. The sleeves are sheer but the bodice is not. I love the material it’s made of, very durable. It’s one of my favorite dresses I own. It’s stretchy enough around the waist and bust, some parts are less stretchy and feel like they’re pulling away from the rest of the material. I suggest putting it on from the waist vs over your head if you have a larger bust and wider

Pros
  • The dress is the perfect length, not too long or too short
Cons
  • The off-shoulder style may not be suitable for those with larger arms

Super Cute and Flattering

This is so cute in person! It’s super flattering. I was concerned because I’m a 34” DDD and dresses don’t always fit me in this area. Or it’ll fit in the chest, but be too big elsewhere. If you are smaller chested, you could definitely go bra less. I choose to wear one and was able to kinda hide the bra with the tie in the back. You could definitely still see the straps and the band if you looked. This didn’t bother me, I just choose a cute bra to wear with this in mind. I really love the…

Pros
  • I wore this dress to a wedding, and it was really comfortable.
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for formal events

Perfect fit, super cute even for plus size!

If youre on the fence about this dress, I can def tell you its a good buy. I ordered this in a late night frenzy to find an outfit for my 40th bday. Based on the reviews I went for it, arrived next day. The fit is PERFECT. The waistline is stretchy, the sleeves are super roomy no need to worry about that, bust fit me ok but that's cause I have implants from my double mastectomy. Was worried it'd be big on the bust because I'm a size 16 but no longer have a large bust size but it was good. If I…

Pros
  • The beautiful design makes it an excellent gift idea for someone special
Cons
  • The lantern sleeves may overwhelm petite frames

Plus size friendly: my feedback

I loved the dress and how it looked on my body. It was very light and was perfect for hot days! Obviously I wore it to a Renaissance Festival and I didn't have any issues with it. It was super comfy and easy to walk around in for hours.

Pros
  • The dress is perfect for twirling, thanks to the flared design
Cons
  • The dress may shrink or fade after being washed

Perfect dress for a work event!

Got these dresses for a work event and they were PERFECT! We did wear white short shorts underneath but received SO many compliments! I’m the one with brown hair in the picture — 5’9” and 140 pounds with a very long torso — I wore a size medium one day and a size large the next day —- I actually preferred the large just for a little extra room but very little difference. My worker and I wanted to wear a bra so actually tied the things in the front instead of back… it was the perfect solution…

Pros
  • The sizing is true to size, making it easy to order online
Cons
  • The vintage style may make the dress look too formal for some occasions

Great product I’d size up

It fit really well and was super stretchy. Most clothes I wear a size small but I decided to size up to a medium and it was the perfect size

Pros
  • Wonderfull!
Cons
  • The dress may not be suitable for all body shapes
