    10/10 dress

    Beautiful dress! Got a size Medium and it's perfect, thick material definitely warm for an outside New England wedding in the fall. I have an appointment to get the dress altered to take off the cuffs (they give costume vibes) and I'm going to have the shoulders taken in because they definitely fall down if you have a smaller chest.

    Halloween Night Out

    This dress is very elegant. It hugs your curves beautifully and complements an hourglass silhouette. The black velvet fabric elevates the whole look and the bell sleeves add a unique touch. Although I'm a short person, with the appropriate heels, the dress elongated my figure and looked incredibly polished. Very happy with my purchase!

    TIGHT FIT, LOOSE SLEEVES

    I can't even tell you whether this runs big or small because I got an extra extra small. I'm 94 pounds. It's super tight but fits fine except the sleeves will not stay on my shoulders, and it's super loose under my armpits. Seriously this sleeve just fall down, the dress is completely unwearable. The photos are of me just standing normally, the sleeves won't even stay on my shoulders

    Fits tight but I wouldn't change the size. Very pretty and comfortable. I'm 5'2 so it's long on me, but I have a pair of very high heels that worked out perfectly. Material is thick and nice.

    Perfect for my costume

    I ordered this dress for my Morticia costume this year. It fits me well, but I would say that it fits smaller than most of my other lulus dresses. I also had to have the shoulders taken up to fit me correctly, but it's still a really pretty dress.
