This dress was true to size and comfortable to wear. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a fun black dress to style 

Like a sexy tshirt. Rides up a bit in front while walking but not really a problem to scootch it down. Wore it twice.

Sized up on this because I'm pregnant and glad I did. It is very tight around the legs but it was cute and warm.

Material was thick so definitely warmer, it was short but I wore with tights and higher boots. Top was big enough on larger chest and I felt like it fit my waist in a flattering way too. 

Like the other reviews, hits snug on hips/waist and loose on the top. Wore this out for a date with tights and also to a club. 

Loved the velvet and overall style of the dress but the fit was off. The dress is short and tended to ride up. But the top was way too baggy. So it was disproportionately both too small and too large. I wore a belt to distract from the bagginess of the top. Probably wouldn’t rent again but it worked for a party I hosted in the winter 

A little hard to get over my head but once it was on it fit perfect in the waits but baggy on top. Would still recommend! 

Cute crew neck dress! I wish it had a size zipper. Nearly had a panic attack trying to get it on/off the first time when the lining rolled up and wouldn’t budge. Very comfortable on for standing around. Wore to a concert where I spent half the time sitting and it became tiresome on the hips and thighs. Size up if you can and will be sitting a lot.

I have boobs and hips and this fit great! Definitely size up if you are in between but the fabric hugs great and is very flattering 

It is nice and easy to wear to a nicer event. However, the bottom is tight which looks nice/is flattering but the top is loose. The looseness of the top part is fine, but kind of odd contrast with no belt/accessory. 

Trust these reviews - I have a very athletic build (read: NO hips), and this would've been impossible to get on if I had sized down.  

That said, the fit on my hips were perfect in this size, and the length of the mini was tasteful for a dame pushing 40 yrs like myself :). The tops was blousy, but comfortable.  

It's a great dress but size WAY up, especially if you have any hips.

felt so cute in this dress! i loved the looser top and more fitted bottom, could be dressed up or down. the ruching in the skirt creates a very flattering look, even for those (like me) with wider hips. it is short, but a pair of opaque tights add plenty of modesty, if you’re worried about the length. i am not really into short, tight dresses, but i loved this one. it was also very comfy. might buy it. 

Material is thick and lush. Can be dressed up or down. The only thing I didn’t love was the neckline. It made it a bit too casual for my liking. Still a beautiful dress.

This dress was not easy to put on as it has no zips and no stretch, but love the fit. It’s pretty form fitting and fits true to size. Skirt would hike up a little and it’s already quite short. 
Velvet fabric is gorgeous. Got to channel my inner 90s girl
