Flattering for curves, great for price
I’m shocked by how great this dress is. I almost didn’t order it bc of some reviews but there was one that noted to size up enough to not have to use the zipper- which I did (2 sizes up from my usual) and it fits fantastically well. I wouldn’t recommend that for petite bodies though. Read below for more details on fit.Fabric: this is a heavy-ish polyester satin. It’s thick enough to drape well and side minor lumps without feeling like a table cloth. It has a little stretch so it’s very comfortable. This is a polyester satin though, so it doesn’t breathe. I loved it for my winter party, but would be a sweaty mess in warmer temps.Sizing- The Top:I agree with others that the top is cut large. I have a very large chest and small back. It draped very nicely, but it was about 1-2 inches too big around the top seam. Other reviewers said it has elastic at the top to help it stay- that not correct. It’s not elastic, it’s a plastic coating they put on strapless clothing and bras to help them stick to the skin. I was too rushed to pin it, and the plastic helped but I was picking it up throughout the night on the strapless side. It stayed on my shoulder all night through hosting. As a 34G the XXL (2 sizes up from my normal size) was too big, but doable bc of the drape. I could have easily worn an XL and I think a L would be the most flattering. Again, L is my usual size, sometimes XL in these cheap Amazon pieces.Size - The Bottom: this is where I’m glad I sized up by 2. I am holding a lot of bloat in my stomach bc of some health stuff and this dress covered it beautifully. It cinched in just enough to highlight my waist and the drape fabric hid my puffy stomach. If I wasn’t dealing with a particularly puffy stomach I would likely want a XL (one size up from my normal). The length is perfect. It hits at my natural waist (I’m long torso) and the hem is long enough to not look like you’re going to a club, but is still sexy. You could wear this to both a work event, and for a night out. I hosted in this all night and the give of the fabric allowed me to comfortable move things in and out of the oven, dance and sit. I got compliments all night in it. It definitely registers as a quality dress when it’s on your body.Overall- I highly recommend this dress. If you are slim or petite I’d stick with whatever size you usually wear or size down for a more fitted look. If you’re small chested, make sure you have pins and body tape, or pay to get it altered (I think it’s worth it). If you are curvy and like things more fitted I’d go 1 size up and if you want a drape look like on the model or have more tummy to hide, go 2 sizes up.The green is beautiful and as pictured btw. I may even order this in other colors for all my parties this season. It’s that comfortable and flattering.

Big up too. Too small around the hips.
I ordered this dress twice. I should have known not to trust the pictures & reviews, because Amazon noted that the dress was often returned a lot. But I gave the dress the benefit of a doubt. I 1st ordered a medium. The dress fits ok in the chest area, but too tight around the hips/butt. The dress has a lining but only in the front. It made it hard for me to pull it down or zip up on the side. So I ordered a 2nd dress in a large. Not flattering at all. The second dress had a lot of fabric in the chest area. The lining in the front made it hard to move. The dress pulled around the hips & butt. I’m worried that the seam would break. I just can’t make it work. So I returned them both.I’m 5’10, 185, 36B & 42 waist. The dress in the picture looks fine, but it’s not. It’s cheap looking as well. It’s comes very wrinkly so I have a great steamer on hand. The only plus is that the champagne color is beautiful.

WOW for $30 bucks
This dress is definitely cute and a lil off the shoulder sexy. You can't beat the look for the price, but then again it is $30 bucks. The zipper is cheap, you'll need to wear a slip, and the fit maybe off. I'm 5'7" 155( small breast ) and had a challenge zipping up the med. otherwise it fit nicely. I know if I go with a large the overall fit will be to big. it seems, if the top half fits the bottom may be too big or vice versa. Maybe save yourself some time and order two sizes and send the one back that doesn't fit. The dress is oh so cute!!

Almost perfect fit
I loved the dress. It was beautiful the color and material was well done. Nice drape like material. The one thing that I struggle with was the under skirt. It make it uncomfortable to sit because it was too short and tight and had no wiggle room so for my thick thigh and booty gals beware. And I’m 5’8 so when I sat it got really weird in the front and I was self conscious about how much was showing. But it was beautiful otherwise and very classy sexy.

Thicker material. Silky. But not for curvy ladies!
5’7”, 34AA, 33”waist, 46” hips - pear shaped fabulousness! Purchased a large after reading reviews. Was able to zipper dress up, but dress was still small on bottom half.Purchased the beautiful emerald green color, the color was just as the picture. And it’s super silky against the skin. Zipper zips on the side under the ruffled armpit sleeve and not obnoxiously visible in the back.Top part of dress: dress does have the silicone band to make sure dress stays up, but since I am small on top, this dress was still enormous. Bottom half of dress: straight fit and not flattering for ladies with hips. This dress does have an extra piece of fabric which is a straight, even, skirt-like before the V illusion so your hoohah isn’t showing, but with my body it was still too tight as hips stretch it out, and fabric has no give. Hips were being suffocated and that is just not at all comfortable! Needed maybe like an XL for bottom and medium on top.Overall: The material feels nice against the skin though, you can tell it’s a thicker material of dress as well and not paper thin as some other brands, but this just did Not work for me, will be returning.

Runs small
The fabric actually feels nice and navy blue looks rich however, the dress is not stretchy at all and it runs small.
