Drop Waist Velvet Dress

Such a gorgeous dress and really comfy. Wore it for a wedding at the Sydney Opera House. However, the chest is HUGE. I'm a 36DD and had tons of extra room. Needed tape to feel comfortable with the deep v and looseness of the top.

Better be tall enough to handle this, otherwise perfect

so cute for a wedding but ran big!

Loved the dress. A little warm, as there are layers and it is velvet, so not recommended for an outdoor summer wedding. Wore it with my chicken cutlets (boob cups? I don't know their formal name) as it is a low cut and low arm pits.

I absolutely loved this dress - very elegant, comfortable and fashionable. Others commented on the plunging neckline and arm holes but neither were an issue for me.

Stunning formal dress, comfortable to wear although it is cut quite low in the front and sides. I chose to wear a black bandeau underneath for coverage. Would definitely rent again!

May need boob tape.

I wore this dress to a formal, country club wedding. It fit well; the arm holes are deep and may show side boob, however, the front panel is wide enough to cover everything. The skirt is gorgeous and soft - it’s four layers of fabric so it drapes and flows as you walk. Just be careful - the top layer is soft mesh that can tear and pull easily. A gorgeous dress!

Nice low cut v neck line wore it to a wedding

A different type of dress. So elegant!

I have never received so many compliments in my life - bride, wedding party, family friends, grandparents, random people at the bar afterwards. I absolutely loved this dress and I wish I had an excuse to wear it again. I normally wear a 6 and sized down based on other reviews and the 4 fit well. I loved the length hitting just above the ankle and felt like the neckline was sexy but still classy for a formal wedding. I used boob tape (easy to use given shoulder/back coverage) to perk the girls up a bit but could go without just as easily. Danced all night and was beyond comfortable. Rent her !!!!!

I didn’t realize it was velvet on the top but was so glad that it was! Perfect for a winter black tie wedding. The contrast in the material of the top and plunging neckline with the bottom of the gown is just gorgeous! I loved the waistline- very flattering

I'm typically a 10 but went with an 8 based on reviews, it fit perfectly.

Wore this to a friend's wedding and never have I received so many compliments! The dress fit like a glove and held its shape despite being a deep cut in the front (no boobs flying out on the dance floor!). Fantastic "spin" and super comfy!

I felt like QUEEN.

Fit perfect!!!! Works best for smaller chested!

Unfussy and comfortable

Absolutely loved this dress! Super comfortable and super flattering!

Agree, wore the size down from what I usually wear. Got so many compliments. Definitely needed some boob and fashion tape but if you feel comfortable with low cut and some side cleavage the dress is comfortable and easy to wear. The dress skimmed the floor with no heel, so adding a heel prevented any dragging.

I absolutely loved this dress. It was comfortable and classic. Unfortunately, it ended up being 85 degrees on the day I had planned to wear it. Hoping I'll be able to rent it for an event in the future!

Perfect fit and got so many compliments!!!

Tons of compliments on this dress for Swan Lake at the NY Ballet! The top is velvet and has shoulder pads so gave me great shape while keeping me warm when it got chilly in the theater. I wore with ballet flats but would have been perfect with heels as well. I wore a sticky bra with this as the arm pits and deep v would show a regular bra!

I ordered this so I wouldn't feel underdressed at a black tie optional wedding, and it was perfect for the occasion. A couple notes: I'm a true size 6, but the 4 fit me like a glove so size down! I needed boob tape to work the deep v, but it's easy to do because there's plenty of coverage in the front and back. It's long - I'm 5'4" and definitely needed heels. And last it was a warm to dance in, so if you're going to break it down on the dance floor maybe choose something else.

I wore this for a black tie wedding, great style, fit well and super comfortable to have on all day. Length was great, I wore flats but would have also worked with heels

Wonderful dress, but I am interested and it showed a lot of side boob so I had to a dress underneath

So beautiful and flattering. The top is fairly structured, and the skirt is quite full and very flow-y. Highly recommend sizing down, especially if you are sometimes between sizes.

loved this dress! definitely need to get creative to strap the girls down but overall a huge win. others said this was too long. im 5'2" and the size 0 was the perfect length

this was a last minute dress choice because the dress I initially ordered wasn’t able to be sent due to damage - I was disappointed and unsure if I made the right choice after reading reviews here on the lose top. It ended up being a great choice - the top stayed put throughout my recital and I was very comfortable. It was also super pretty! Alls well that ends well ~ sizing was a bit strange, the 0 worked well for me but I’m usually a 2/4

I wore this to a gala and it was a hit! I love the elegance of the dress and received so many compliments. I’m 5’2” 130lbs and the 0 fit like a glove.

Loved the dress and the quality. I am 5' 7" tall and weigh around 180 pounds. The dress was really a deep cut in the front and on the sides. I wore a cami to help with the plunge in the front and cover the area under my arms. Dress has built in shoulder pads and is very long. I wore the tallest shoes I could find. Overall, I loved it felt good in it.

The skirt fit beautifully- it was full and great to twirl around in. The top was a little big and you can’t wear a bra with it. But some fashion tape held everything in place

Super comfy and got a ton of compliments on the dress. I am 5'2 and the dress was pretty long on me. It worked better with 3" heels. I'd size down as I'm typically a size 4 and ended up wearing a size 0

The 12 was a bit large up top, but the 10 didn’t lay as well, so I used some fashion tape and made it work. It felt great, and I didn’t feel exposed. I danced all night, and this dress was perfect for that! I would definitely rent this one again!

You need to size down at LEAST 1 size, if you have a smaller chest I would recommend 2. I taped the dress and made it work but I definitely wish I ordered the 4.

Soooo comfy, very low cut so have to be comfortable with the deep v, but the panels were wide so still did a great job with a little tape if larger chested.

I received SO many compliments on my dress at the wedding I went to! It’s super flattering and so easy to wear. The top section is velvet and has some stretch but is still structurally sound, and I never felt like I was in any danger of a nip slip or anything like that. My only complaint is that the zipper is a little tough to get up at the point where the bodice and skirt meet—it’s working past a lot of fabric, so a second pair of hands was really helpful.
