This dress did not take long at all to arrive and is even more beautiful than I imagined. The fit is perfect! I'll order more from this site!

Absolutely amazing for dancing!
I ordered this dress specifically for a retro night theme ballroom class. (But to wear again also!) it is beautiful. It fit amazingly

I LOVE this retro Dress!
I was interning at a nursing home and my position required that I was always in professional attire. The residents of the home responded positively to my style of dress so I decided to amp it up and dress in a more retro style.

THE SIZE AND THE WHOLE SHAPE IS NOT APPROPRIATE

So pretty
Perfect fit

Super stylish and fits great for busty women!
It fits really well with the stretch material but needs to be ironed before every wear and can stain pretty easily.

Beautiful
The price for this underskirt is unbeatable and it is well worth it! I

Great for the price and otherwise
I purchases several 50's style dresses on amazon now, and this might be my favorite. It fits great, the fabric has a nice give. I am 5'9" and 180lbs, with measurements of 38/28/40, I am dress size 10/12 and a usual size large. The large did fit somewhat large, where I could have likely sized down to a medium, but I am keeping the large and just using the corset type ribbon in the back to tighten the top as needed.

Perfect 50s Photo Shoot Dress!
This dress let and exceeded my expectations. It was a *tiny* bit bigger than I thought it would be according to the size chart listed, but that worked out perfectly because of the ability to tie the back of the dress tighter. I bought the navy blue dress and paired it with a set of candy apple red heels for an amazing photo shoot! It was definitely worth the price!

All around perfect
This dress is perfect in every way. I am so in love with it and so is my boyfriend. His exact words were omg I can't describe how beautiful you are. I will say buy it with the petticoat if you want the fullness. This dress is flat without it. I'm 5'1 155lbs and bought the xl and it fits perfect. Perfect length. The only thing I'm not happy about is the zipper. I can already tell I am going to have issues with it very soon. Other then that I am very happy with my purchase

Chic Dress with Attitude!!!
I LOVE THIS DRESS!! Bought an XL to wear to the Kentucky Oaks Horse Race and it was a huge eye catcher - received many compliments on the dress. Size wise, it was a tad tight in the tummy area but I also do not have a flat tummy wihter but fit fantastic in the chest area (I'm a full B cup) If you are bigger in the chest area, may want to consider going up a size. The material has a silky feel and handled the hour drive to the race without wrinkles. The dress is not big under the arms, has an adjustable ribbon in the back (corset style) to tighten if needed, and the length was just right -not too short, not too long. I also purchased the Dresstells Vintage Rockabilly Petticoat to go under it.

Fast Devliery & No Skimping on Quality
This is a great buy!! The construction and quality of the dress is really nice. I ordered based on the size chart. I am 6' with a D cup and normally wear a size 12-14 pant; M-L top. I ordered the XL and fits perfect!!! there is even this really nice corset that you can tighten if u choose. I cannot wait to wear it! THe length hit around the knee. I love it and even went back online to see if there were other everyday prints I could order :) Thank you! Item cam quickly and packaged ever so thoughtful in a nice zipped garment bag.

So beautiful dress!
i have just received the dress, and they are really beautiful :) I have to admit that I was little afraid how the dress will look like,but I was surprised. The color and embroidery is so pretty. Also the material is of a good quality for the price of the dress. I ordered large size,what is not my size (I wear M) but it was a good decision. The dress fits me perfectly, the only problem is the upper part of the dress, the line under the chest might be lower, but the dress still looks good if I wear strapless bra underneath. I think, this dress was a really good choice, but they are definitely not for big breasted women.

I received this pretty fast. I have really big hips so I do get worried when I was ordering..but this dress is TOTALLY worth it. Its super cute, I really want to buy the pink one!

I love this dress. Brought it for evening wear on my honeymoon so only tried it on but its perfect. Good fit and comfortable.
Katie B
beautiful!!!
Wore this dress for a Minnie Mouse costume. Fit perfectly! So flattering and so comfortable, I got so many compliments. I bought the large and normally wear a 12-14, and it fit just right. The corseted back is very forgiving. I highly recommend getting a petticoat for underneath as it gives it a much more desired poofy look.
Ariel
Good fit, awesome deal for the price
The waist fits nicely, and fits correctly at my natural waist, which is flattering with the cut of the dress. The fabric has enough stretch to be forgiving, but enough structure to feel secure. The satin ribbon at the top does not have the same stretch as the rest of the bodice, so to prevent weird smooshing, I just make sure to wear it higher up on my chest. Nice fabric, nice fit, a great deal for the price. The black ribbon at the waist isn't attached- it comes separately, and you tie it yourself. It tends to bunch and gather a bit, but it's an optional feature. You can just leave it off if you don't like it.

I have it in green to wear to wedding with my irregular choice heels

nice dress
Dress is well made, it stays up well, comes to mid calf length on my 5'2" height. It was comfortable with the elastic in the back, the corset lacing hides the elastic just right. I did not wear the ribbon belt, as the bow at the bottom of the lacing in back would have been in the same place as the belt bow, and I thought it looked great without a belt anyway. I sew, and think the quality it excellent, if I ever need another dress, I would go with the same company if at all possible. I got lots of compliments, too.

Love the dress
This dress was perfect! While I did use it for a Halloween costume, I'm so happy to have this for future use as well. I ordered per reviews to fit my bust and that was a great suggestion. It is a little stretchy and has the corset, so it can be modified to fit perfectly. I bought a petticoat to go underneath and it added just the right amount of poof. Paired with a black shrug, it dresses it up just a tad. Nice quality fabric and sewn well.

Very nice dress for the price
Very nice dress for the price, true to their size measurements listed. I'm about 5"1, 115 pounds with a 34B chest and larger upper body from lots of swimming. A medium was the perfect size that fell right at my knee. This dress is probably not for the big busted and or big cupped I'm thinking.
Amanda Roberts
great dress!
beautiful dress!! it's exactly as pictured and not bad quality c: i selected the fit as somewhat small because while it does fit perfectly initially it shrinks a lot after washing so you should buy a size up! also take note that you lose a LOT of length when it shrinks. it still is long enough to remain modest for me but i want the look of the 50s/60s so im going to buy some matching fabric and have a seamstress take it down to below the knee :3 i imagine this problem can be avoided by washing in cold water but i intentionally shrank it because it was too big LOL. so basically: buy a size up if you're absent minded and think you'll probably forget it needs special attention when laundered; otherwise buying your size will probably be alright. i like the dress a lot, im happy i bought it, and i do recommend it!

I feel very comfortable in this dress
I feel very comfortable in this dress. The line just under the chest could have been an inch lower but it still looks great on. Nice stretch in the fabric too.Large was the size I got , I am a size 18

Runs large but otherwise awesome!
The dress runs large. My daughter needs a 1950s dress for a choir concert, and would usually wear a large per the size chart measurements. She's busty, so we ordered up since that's really the only fitted part of this dress.
NOPE. It was at least two sizes too large! Which is a bummer, because the dress is really cute and of great quality fabric and construction.

Beautiful Vintage 50's Type Dress
Absolutely love this dress! It swings beautifully. It fits well and it's gorgeous. The material is lightweight and breezy. It falls just below my knee and I'm short 5'1" I plan to buy another dress from this vendor.
T. Farmer
Nice Find!
Good material, looks as pictured. I know i was worried it might come small, as the fabric does not have a lot of stretch, but actually I am a size 10/12 and i went a size XL and could have gone down to a L. Mostly it is loose in the waist so a belt will fix that right up. Overall happy with the item.
Tricia Dixon
Cute dress!
Cute dress. I am a size 16-18 and I bought the XXL. I have a large chest, so I can't button the buttons, but I will wear it with a tank. The length is shorter than I expected. This dress is adorable and you can't really complain about the price. I will probably wear this with a thin crinoline as it is not a fI'll circle skirt. It really doesn't "need" an underskirt, but I will want it for length while I'm at the office. Overall a good purchase. I'm happy.

Love this dress!!! ??
My daughter typically wears a small, but ordered a medium and it fit perfectly! This dress is super well made and a steal for the price! The seams were all very neat and clean and the finish work is beautiful!!! I love that the print pattern was carefully matched up at the seams! Would definitely buy again!!
Melissa Dawson
Great for the price and exceedingly cute!
I love this dress! Only critique is that the zipper is just a tad catchy at times.
W. Waldecker
Great stitching and material
Great stitching and material. If you wear a 12-14 get a large. I'm very busy (36ddd); it fit the girl wonderfully.

you get what you pay for
This dress was purchased for my grandma who's in her late 60's. She's a big lady, so we were weary about the size when we purchased it. Luckily, it fit like a glove. Her only qualm was that she expected the shade of blue to be a bright royal blue, this was more of a bright navy blue. I believe that the dresses are true to size. Just be sure to know your bust and waist measurements and reference the size chart before you purchase.
