Adrianna Papell Womens Short Sleeve Blouson Beaded Gown

I got the blush gold color for a Christmas Concert. I absolutely love this gown. I’m 5’ 5” (5’ 4.5” to be exact) and 133 lbs and I got it in size 2, size I normally wear from Adriana Papelle and it fit very well and very comfortable, plenty of room. I made the right decision by not sizing up. The only alteration was for length, half inch of outer material and 1” from lining. I read the reviews about the beading. My dress came in all beads intact but it did loose a few beads of a row in the back in the process of dry cleaning and trying on, I can’t say when. The gown came with extra beads and I fixed the one row in the back and reinforced a few that were loose. Totally worth it, the gown is delightful, just loved it, a total vision.

fits nicely except for the length. Why can't these manufacturers make petites.

I wore this dress to our daughter's wedding. The dress was beautiful and very flattering. I had it hemmed, but I expected to since I am only 5'1". I got lots of complements and was told how elegant I looked in it. It was comfortable and easy to wear. I will add my caution with other reviews that the beads fall off! I saw the reviews, but told myself that I am very careful and take care of my clothes. I tried to be so careful wearing it, but by the end of the evening, I started losing beads. When they fell off, they were in a line, so it became a problem as a row of beads would fall off. I am upset that unless I fix it, which doesn't seem very easy with the bead pattern, I can't use it again or sell it.

This dress is absolutely a winner. The color, the silver design running through the fabric are perfect without being overly done. This gown would be appropriate for a very formal wedding without missing a beat. It does run slightly small because it is form-fitting. I chose not to wear it because it was a little over the top for the wedding I was attending. (I was very disappointed but did not want to outshine at a slightly informal outdoor wedding.) I would highly recommend this beauty as it is well made, very attractive and is priced right on target. It will make you feel like you are on the runway at the Oscars!

I ordered this dress in August for a wedding on November 2nd. It is a beautiful dress and fit well, not tight at all. However, the first time I sat down in it, the thread attaching the beads to the dress broke. I had 20+ beads on the seat of my car and 15-20 on the seat of my chair at the wedding reception. I cannot wear the dress again because of the missing beads and because it looks like all beads are attached with a continuous thread, so I cannot find a way to stop more from falling off.

Pretty but not the right color for my occasion

I loved wearing this dress to my granddaughter’s wedding. It was very elegant and so comfortable to wear. It is beautifully made. I did have to have it hemmed, though. I’d say it runs long.

Absolutely stunning evening gown!

I wore this beautiful dress for the wedding of my daughter. I felt so good all day long. Well made, beautiful style and hand beaded. Fits well and exceptionaly elegant.

I love this designer! This is the 3rd dress I have bought from her. This dress is good quality and well made. I bought the beige for my brothers wedding (photo is of me and my brother) And I bought the emerald colour for a ball, but poor lightingin photo. Only thing is that you do have to be careful of the beading. Mine all survived the event but still take care like you would any formal gown. So comfortable and I get so many compliments whenever I wear her dresses. I'm 166cm and 78kg. I bought Australian size 14 but I could of gotten away with a 12. It does touch the ground with 7cm heels. You can trim the length by an inch or two if really needed. Highly recommend to grab any of her dresses when on sale so you have them on hand!

Muy bonito, de muy buena calidad, se ve lindo y a mu buen precio. Compralo a tu talla. Es aseñorado, a mi mamá y a mi suegra les encantó.

Fancy and elegant good for big occasions
