Promising review: "Love this dress, it's made of nice, thick material. Really stretchy and comfortable. It runs a little big. I ordered a medium, but could have ordered a small." —candice shakes

Promising review: "Bought this dress for my Wednesday costume. Very skeptical but I loved it! I'm 5'6" and 150 lbs. and 34C bra size. I got a medium and it fits perfectly I could have bought the small because it was just a bit loose on the waist but at the end it still looked amazing! Oh and the material of the dress is stretchy and very nice, not cheap at all! Definitely a dress a can wear to the office so I'll be using again." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Welcome to comfort city. If you're looking to wear what I believe clouds made into clothing would feel like, well then you have arrived. Just add some leggings, cute boots, and a jazzy scarf, and it will look like you kind of tried for the day whilst feeling like you're wearing PJs. AND IT HAS POCKETS!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I bought this for my birthday party this month (July). The dress came on time, fit me perfectly in every area and the material was fantastic for the price. I found no downsides to this dress other than the mesh is hotter than it looks. Having been born in the summer I’m used to it but it’s definitely toasty! I thought it was a beautiful addition to my closet. Dark but not tacky is my fashion goal lol. I found it to be a bit itchy, but I have the most sensitive skin of all time. Overall I’d buy this dress again, I loved it and so did everyone else!" —Kelly

Promising review: "Super cute, I absolutely LOVE the shoulders... just wish it was a little shorter... I will probably get it shortened with my seamstress. I am able to wear a normal strapless bra with this. I'm wearing this for my upcoming '21st birthday' pictures and I can't wait! Like I said, it's a little loose in the waist, so I might add a thin, black belt! Would order again!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This dress is amazing in person! Wore it to a work holiday party and got tons of compliments. The back is see-through, so you'll definitely want some kind of adhesive bra.I was amazed that the sleeves/shoulders fit well, I generally have issues with non-stretchy sleeves. I cannot say enough good things about this dress!!" —Ariana S.

Promising review: "I bought this dress along with several other contenders for a Christmas party. After trying this one on it blew the others out of the water. It is the perfect combination of sexy and sophisticated. The neckline can be adjusted to be more or less revealing. The waist perfectly flatters my body and brings out the hourglass shape while masking a few fluffy undesirable areas. My aunt said it made me look like Jessica Rabbit as soon as I walked out in the dress. I have pretty short as well (4'11) and the dress was only a few inches too long for me and will easily be fixed with a heeled shoe." —Steph

Promising review: "OMG! Awesome!!!!! I'm 5’4” and 145 lbs. I bought a medium and it drapes beautifully. I plan to wear it on my shoulders, and the elastic seems strong enough to hold. I bought the white and it’s light and airy — not see though at all. I'm so thrilled. I will buy it in black ASAP!" —LB

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS SWEATER DRESS! I read the reviews, and they said if you want the oversize look to go up a size. I am 5’4", 145 pounds, and normally wear a medium, but I went up to a large for the oversize look. I normally roll up the sleeve once for a cute cuffed look. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND." —Jodi Hochstetler

Promising review (for pic on right): "Get. This. Dress!! I wore this dress for my birthday dinner and it was fantastic! It flattered my figure and flattened my little tummy, I wore it with some Spanx underneath for that accentuated hour glass shape and I received compliments all night. I added a gold belt just to give it a pop and it worked out wonderfully. This is by far the best dress I own and I’m definitely purchasing another one (if not two) more" —illy

Promising review: "This dress surprised me. I normally don't shop for clothes on Amazon, but I saw the pockets on this one (I'm obsessed with pockets) and started reading through the reviews. I ordered two because you can't beat the price. I wore one to work and thought for sure people would know how much I paid for it. But nope! All I've been getting are compliments and requests for links to buy the dress!! I'm about to order some more." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I love this dress! I dress more on the modest side but still like to be fashionable. This is perfect. The fit is great, it goes up to the neckline, and the sleeves and buttons are beautiful. The length was about mid-calf on me (I’m 5’6”). It was a thin material, so you may have to wear a slip, but other than that, it needs nothing extra!" —Maria

Promising review: "What a beautiful dress! I bought this ruffle hem party dress for a day outing and as you can see in the pictures, it looked awesome. I ordered small size of this dress and it is exact length I wanted well, my height is 5’5". It doesn't stretch out at all or lose shape after wearing it for a long time or after washing. Tie neck and short ruffle hem makes this dress even more special for special events." —AK
