Womens Casual Fit and Flare Floral Sleeveless Party Evening Cocktail Dress

34D, size 10 Long pants, 155 lb. but muscular so look a little smaller. 5'7", 32-33" inseam, all legs, short-waisted. Bought a size Medium.I looked at probably 7 to 8 different brands of styles similar to this before purchasing this, reading probably 200 reviews and looking at all the photos. I was concerned about having enough room for my 34D chest but armholes, shoulders, and ribcage/waist that is small enough for me.The fabric is very soft but not shiny. It flows over your hips in a way that is not clinging but also feels like pajamas.Depending on how I wear it (pulled down a little or pulled up a little as it adjusts), it can show a tiny bit of cleavage or no cleavage. I'm modest but not prudish, and this works well for me.I am 5'7" tall and short waisted, so my legs are pretty long (32"-33" inseam). This hits just above my knees. If you have a longer body and shorter legs at 5'7", it might be higher above your knees because your knees would be lower than mine.I wear a size 10 pants (gained some weight) and the medium fits me perfectly. Since most of my weight is below the ribcage, the flared skirt accommodates the weight. I know that when I lose the 30 lbs. I gained, this dress will still fit because the shoulders fit, the armholes are small, and the fabric adjusts to your shape.The colors in the green dress are vivid, and the white in the pattern is true white--not off-white. That's part of why I got this color. I don't look good in subdued colors. I was concerned that my brown-streaked silver hair would not look good with this busy floral, especially a green with all the yellow in it. But, the green is a little bit bluish, and the yellow is vivid. With the bluish red and pink, it is flattering to me. There is also a forest green and dark olive color, but those are not as dominant as the bluish green. I also noticed from the review photos that this color looks good on people with yellow blond hair and people with dark brown hair.The waistline on this dress will sit where you put it. When I wear it so that it covers my full coverage bra and either shows no cleavage or shows just a tiny bit of cleavage, the waistline sits just below my bra or at the bottom of my bra, but the back of the waistline is lower as my back is small. If I pull it down so that the waistline sits at my waist, the neckline is low-cut, and I would have to wear a more skimpy bra than I own. It would be very pretty, mind you, but a bit va-va-voom. As a teacher, I am not given to wearing my necklines that low. I also could wear a white or dark red cami underneath and pull it down but I usually don't like a lot of layers.Because I have some jiggly parts now, unlike most of my life, I have to admit that I might wear shapewear under this--some flesh colored shorts. However, I don't think it's necessarily necessary if you aren't too self-conscious or don't have any bumps you want to smooth down. It's not clingy, and the only time I'm self-conscious is when I slump over. This dress does not seem see-through in this color, and it doesn't seem to show panty lines.I chose this over Tom's Ware styles because the Tom's Ware styles didn't have as much stretch for my ample chest. This stretches without looking like you had to stretch it to fit into it. It's not tight feeling at all but it does feel secure in that there is no gaping at the armholes or chest. If you're smaller chested, the front may go up higher or the waistline my go down further.If you are bigger chested like me, you can either pull the waistline down to the waist and have a va-va-voom look or wear a cami to fill in the neckline, or you can pull it up and have a more modest look with a higher waistline. The waistline doesn't seem very obvious so I don't think it matters. Because the waistline is lower in the back on me due to my ample chest, I would think the dress would be longer in back, but it's not. Maybe my derriere makes up the difference.I knew this was a little bit of a risk since the price was higher to reflect included "free" shipping and no Prime Shipping was available, but after all my research, I felt safe ordering it. I'm glad I did. I think it is a great deal. I just got it so don't know how it will wash. I plan to wash it inside out inside a mesh bag on cold on the short cycle or hand wash. I plan to hang to dry.Edited to add:Now that I've worn the dress, only for about an hour, I have decided that it is not for me. While it's not worth it to pay to send it back to China, I don't think it's flattering for me. However, that doesn't mean it's not a great dress. Fifteen years ago when I was still very slender and even fitter and before my skin seemed to age overnight, and while I was still dying my hair dark brown, this would have been perfect for me.I've noticed in the reviews that this color looks best on people with yellow blond hair and people with dark brown hair. The warmth of those colors works well with the greens and yellows in this dress. Also, the solid hair color looks best with he vibrant print. My icy silver and dark, dark brown streaks that look black from a distance clash with the print.Also, although I'm muscular, I have more flubber than before and while this dress honestly doesn't cling and is forgiving in that way, the fact that it's a little more revealing in the chest area somehow makes me feel exposed. I wouldn't have felt that way when I as thinner. I don't normally wear tops or dresses that expose any cleavage. I thought at first that I could just adjust it so cleavage didn't show, but it doesn't stay that way. If you're going to wear this dress without a cami underneath, expect cleavage to show, at least if you are busty like I am. As a teacher and someone who likes to be able to lean over without exposing anything personal, I didn't feel comfortable with the neckline on my errand. When I walked into the mailbox store, the young men in there looked surprised though I often go in there. I don't know how to interpret their reaction and didn't ask.When I got home, before I went to the grocery store, I changed into some mid-thigh compression shorts and a boysenberry colored cap sleeved solid top plus some black and white walking sandals. With my silver nearly black streaked hair, the outfit made me look great, even though it was casual and probably sounds odd. I decided that solids and colors in the pinky red to purple range were my best clothing picks, as before. And, I decided to go back to wearing necklines that were about two inches higher.Other people might not be so particular about how a dress looks on them and may wear this. The dress is great. It's just not a match for the way I look now. I still love this dress and highly recommend it. It had a higher neckline so that no cleavage showed and was solid and in my purples and bluish reds, it would be perfect for me.I may end up wearing this with dark leggings, walking boots, and a cropped dark red long sleeved top or sweater OVER it so that the solid red is near my face and my neckline and arms are covered. This would be great for our mild winters here in Southern California and more comfortable for me. Being a teacher, I would rather not show cleavage in public and I don't like to have to be careful when I bend down. I also would feel more attractive with the color that flatters me next to my face.If I end up not wearing it much, I could definitely wear it as a dress for at home or a nightgown, but it's so pretty that I hate to only wear it at home.Now, I did consider getting the black/pink/gray color as I would not have the color compatibility issue. I decided not to because it's still too low-cut for me. However, if I find the red top to wear over the green one and like it, I might get the black print and do the same as that would actually be a good color selection for me.

At under 5' tall, and 120 lbs, I am a curvy, small size. The dress is a touch on the snug side however going up a size would have made the dress too large. I have a short waist but my biggest issue is not with the sizing, but that the waist is too short by two inches. This dress with a longer waist would be super cute and something that could be worn to the office with a nice sweater. As it is, it looks awkwardly casual with the waist hitting just below the bust line. At the price, I will keep it, but I won't be wearing it as I had intended.

This is one of the first dresses that I bought of this type so was very set to get the 3XL. I was not sure how much this fabric would give and am always on the look out for too narrow of a measurement between the shoulder measurement. I always stay to 16" on up to make sure there are not problems with the top being large enough. This one says 17" so if anything there is a lot of room to not worry about this problem! I absolutely love the pattern on this dress and love the fact that both dresses I bought like this were so different. One is darker ,(blue/purple), with a white background and the other lighter,(peach/pink) ,colors with the background of a tannish hue! The difference that was notable between the 3xl and 2xl is that obviously one is a slight bit smaller all over and the largest difference seems be that measurement between the shoulders. One is 17' and the other is 16.77" . I tend to keep moving the straps around more with the 3XL. Both are very close though in fit and length without anymore differences that would not allow you to fit in both ...just depending if you like a looser fit for something that has a smidgen less room and is just a bit more snug! (Not in a bad way however!) I guess it just being a preference! Go with the size that speaks to you ..that is the one to try! Again, this dress is very soft and comfortable, allows for you to not feel confined, is a nice thickness to feel cool, hangs well, and is very flattering! This one also came to my knees ...maybe a bit longer... but ended up being at a flattering length. No riding up here! Add a belt or don't add a belt both ways are attractive and is a dress that is sure to please! I am very pleased and am glad that I added this to my collection of must haves! It was not a mistake! (BTW the neck on this dress was rounded ...not a v neck but really doesn't matter! I still love it!) Deb....Scott's wifeNOTE: I bought the 2xl from ACEVOG. Their sizes are a bit different than from this company but both have beautiful dress selections and the 2xl runs larger than from this company!

It fits as expected. The fabric is unbelievably soft and looks exactly like its picture. The dress is cut in the same shape and style as the Tom Ware dress as I'm sure everyone noticed and was probably led to it based upon seeing it at the bottom of the page while looking at the Tom Ware dress just like I was, lol. It is a little bit roomier than the Tom Ware dress and like I previously stated, the fabric is very soft (softer than the Tom Ware dress) and a bit thinner and more lightweight. With that being said, I personally did not find this one to be as flattering to my body as the Tom Ware dress. Its pretty unflattering for me and that's why I gave it 3 stars. Its cute, it came exactly as pictured. But I personally will not be wearing it unless I was home alone and knew no one would see me as it makes me look very frumpy, loose skinned, large, pear shaped and saggy in all the wrong places. That is just my experience though.
