Perfect for Miss Scarlet!

I bought this for a Halloween costume. I was given the part of Miss Scarlet in a ‘Clue Murder Mystery’ It fit like a glove and showed off every curve. I ordered the large. I had room in the dress. It was comfortable and not tight at all. I wore regular underwear and a strapless bra. Two of the pictures are of trying it on when it was delivered and the other is in full costume after the murder mystery when I was awarded ‘most dramatic’. I am completely in love with this dress!

Pros
  • The dress can be paired with heels for an elevated evening look
Cons
  • It may not be suitable for those who prefer more modest clothing

The greatest dress you will ever get for under $20.

I ordered this on a whim for a holiday party and this dress is AMAZING. I'm 5'5", just over 150lbs, 36D bust. I bought the 12 and it was a perfect fit. I might have been able to fit in a 10, but that would have been a tighter fit. I am built like a Pringles can - a perfect cylinder - but this made me look like an hourglass! The shoulders stay put, the dress doesn't ride up or down, and the material is comfy. I steamed it to get the package wrinkles out and that worked fine.Need something dressy

Pros
  • The dress runs large. Definitely size down. If you normally wear a small. Don’t order.
Cons
  • It may not look flattering on all body types

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

Pros
  • Dresses
Cons
  • It may wrinkle easily

Runs a little big! for my opinion

I was a little heavier than normal when I ordered this dress. A usual medium, I was wearing mostly large at the time. I ordered medium thinking "I'll go back to my regular size and this will fit". When it arrived

Pros
  • The dress can be worn with a statement belt to cinch in the waist
Cons
  • The neckline may not suit all face shapes

nice dress and fit for the price

This is a very inexpensive dress, but a value for the dollar. I would probably have paid double to have nicer fabric though - all else the same. I bought two of these dresses for an upcoming cruise where I would be salsa dancing. The bodice and sleeves are nicely lined and the collar line is elasticized to help secure it in place. Lifting arms above the head properly in this dress would be difficult, but for most social occasions you should be fine. I ordered two print designs. I feel like the…

Pros
  • Imported
Cons
  • It may not be stretchy enough for those who prefer more give in their clothes

Perfect pinup style!

I was shocked by the quality of this dress for the price. It was PERFECT for my friends’ vegas wedding! I got so many compliments! I’m 5’8” and 150lbs and a 36C Im about a size 8 dress so I bought an 8. This thing fit about as well as I could’ve asked. (My friend got her dress on revain too!)

Pros
  • The dress can be worn in all seasons with the right layers and styling
Cons
  • The price may be too high for some

Beautiful but bad zipper

The only reason I didnt give 5 stars was because the zipper is very flimsy and ended up breaking so now I'm going to have to replace it. Lucky I know how to sew but still it's an inconvenient thing to deal with. Not the first time these vintage style dresses have a faulty zipper issue. Btw I'm 5'4, 145lbs with a 32 inch waist. It fit perfectly just a bad zipper.

Pros
  • The vintage style adds a touch of old-school glamour to your outfit
Cons
  • The fabric may be itchy or uncomfortable to wear

Fit like a GLOVE! on my review.

I am 5'2" and about 135lbs. I bought a size 8 and it was absolutely perfect! SOrry i dont have a full pic but as you can see it fit well. I got so many compliments and the quality was great. Excellent purchase

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • The vintage design may appear outdated

Comfortable but will stretch out!

I like the dress BUT after a couple of hours of using the dress I felt that the skirt of the dress really stretched out and got a lot bigger then I started off with. I looked like a box.Is the dress nice yes. Is the material comfortable yes.My weight is 186 and I ordered a size 14. I usually wear a size 12 in pants and large to x large in shirts.Would I recommend this dress yes. It's nice and comfortable but it does stretch out at least in the skirt area.

Pros
  • The dress can be dressed down with a denim jacket and sneakers for a casual look
Cons
  • It may not be suitable for those with a larger frame

Va-va-voom! good for me

Typically I wear 10-12 in Calvin Klein dresses to work. Large in skirts. I ordered this in a large and easily could've worn a Medium. I was surprised! I'm large in the chest and have trouble getting dresses to zip but this dress has enough stretch to compensate. It's sexy without being overly revealing. Definitely good for a date night.

Pros
  • The dress is a great investment piece for your wardrobe
Cons
  • It may not be suitable for those with mobility limitations

Perfect Dress! - my new review

I was scared a bit with the sizing but it’s a comfortable fit. I got a 2X and that did me good! The dress has some stretch to it so it makes you feel much more secured but breathe ability! ANDDDDD it doesn’t ride up…

Pros
  • 💓Occasion: Our Off the Shoulder Bodycon Dresses are suitable for cocktail, church, graduation, party, evening party, wedding, night out, etc;
Cons
  • It may not have pockets

Fits great! in my review

5'2", 135 lbs., hourglass. I bought the medium and it fits great. Fabric is thin which is fine for the price, but you'll need to choose your foundation garments carefully. My biggest issue is with the zipper. It does not zip smoothly and, even with my partner's help, it snags a lot. If you don't have a zipper helper I'd pass.

Pros
  • The versatile style makes it easy to dress up or down with different accessories
Cons
  • It may be too revealing for some settings

So soft, elegant, quality is precise!

I got so many compliments & it made me feel beautiful even if it was only for Halloween I will surely wear again its stunning! It was a little long I’m short so having it a little shorter would be even more amazing! Thank You all for bringing the retro to the present.

Pros
  • 74%Rayon+24.4%Nylon+1.6%Spandex;95%Polyester+5%Spandex
Cons
  • It may not have a zipper or buttons for ease of wear

Perfect dress! best in my review

I have been looking for a dress for a wedding this summer and this is exactly what I was looking for. It’s comfy, good material and flattering. I bought it in wine red but they have other cute colors so I may need to buy more! This is definitely worth the buy.

Pros
  • Zipper closure
Cons
  • It may be too short or too long for some
