PrettyGuide Women 's 1920s Black Sequin Gatsby Maxi Long Evening Prom Dress

I bought this dress for my mom to wear as a SURPRISE for their 50th Wedding Anniversary! Her and I are about the same size, I'm 150 lbs, and I'm 5 ft tall, 36DD. I ordered the medium and the large just to make sure to get the right size. The medium fit well, but the arms on the sleeves were just a tiny bit tight and would work if you like it to fit more to your body. My mom hates anything tight on her arms or her tummy, so the Large is what i went with to give a little bit looser fit. She is all of 4'10 though so I had to have it hemmed to fit her. The other reviews are correct about the bottom material on the dress being a little see through but a slip would work, but since I had to have the hem altered I just had the tailor add some material to the bottom. She thought it was a $200-300 dress and was flabbergasted when I told her I got it on Amazon for such a good price! She said she was very confidant and comfortable in it and loved the fit. The sparkle on this dress just can't be justified with pictures, in person it looks amazing and my mom looked absolutely beautiful in it!! So happy with this purchase!

I’m writing this review that confirms the other reviews for this beautiful dress! I weigh about 245lbs so I bought the 2X based on the reviews. The buyers were accurate!! I’m sad because the party I purchased the dress for has been canceled. It’s now hanging in my closet waiting to be worn. It’s too pretty to return it!!!💯💜

Thrilled with this dress! I have purchased dressed for thousands of dollars at Nordstrom and for hundreds of dollars from other brands here on Amazon and I am just as proud to step out in this little number. True, it doesn't have the couture detailing you'll find in those pricier dresses but no one's going to notice, including you! What I love about this dress is that it's FLATTERING! I'm 5'7" and 165 on a good day. I got the 10/12. It makes me look like a model! If you have a prominent pooch or other feature that really bothers you, you might want to wear some shapewear but most women can get away without that stuff. It's form fitting from the shoulders to the hips but not in a sausage-casing way... in a flowy, feminine way. And because the fitted area is covered in lace and beading, no VPL, lumps or other minor imperfections show. It will require either a strapless bra or one of those clear-strapped bras because it's just lace and beading over the shoulders. But it is a stunning look. And I was surprised to read women were wearing it as a costume. While I can certainly see how you can make it work as a costume, it does not scream "1920's". Go for it. I wouldn't steer you wrong. And if you found this review helpful, would you click, "yes"? I have dreams of becoming a Vine reviewer someday.

I ordered two of these dresses, one in green size 10/12 and one in blue size 6/8 since so many reviews say it runs large. This dress definitely runs LARGE. I'd love to give this beautiful dress 5 stars since it is feels well-made and is quite flattering on a curvy figure, but I docked it a star for a few reasons. For reference, I'm 5'8" 200lbs and my measurements are 40-34-44. Green size 10/12 - this seems to fit more like a standard US size 14 in my experience. It easily slid over my head without having to touch the zipper (which is probably a good thing as the zipper seems a bit flimsy) and there is extra material that bunches up at the sides and in the back unless I keep pulling it down to smooth it out. The green color is gorgeous though, and my pictures don't really do it justice. The length is good for me, it falls just past my ankles in bare feet. With heels it might feel a bit short, but fortunately I don't like to wear heels. Blue size 6/8 - this seems to fit like a standard US size 10. I also didn't need to use the zipper to pull this over my head. The fit is much better for me, although I was very disappointed with the color. I thought I'd accidentally received a black dress when I first opened it, but it is in fact a very dark navy blue. The pictures on Amazon had me expecting a more vibrant blue for some reason. The length is about a half inch shorter than the 10/12 size. All in all it's still a beautiful dress, and I'm a bit torn on which one to return. I may keep both! No discount or freebies received here, I pay full price for my stuff. Hope this was helpful!

This is the second dress I bought - in 2019 I bought the bergundy with black for a Christmas 'black tie optional' event. It fit wonderfully and looked great. I am 5'7" 190# with a decent waist, average hips- I fit a 14/16 really comfortably. I can pinch an inch of fabric on each side of my waist, but the stretch pulls it in nicely against my shape. I am a 38C and the chest is fit, but comfortable. The gown touches the floor in bare feet - about an inch rests on the floor. With my 3" heels, it is perfect. Beware that the end of the beaded bodice is just one layer of thin beading that will pull/snap at the seam (maye a quarter of an inceh) if you are not careful - lift it gently over your behind and it will stay put. If you do pull this a bit, it is easily stitched together without loss of beads. It is glamorous, it is beautiful and you cannot help but to feel wonderful in this dress. For a bigger person (not the model size 6), this is a true find.

Dress is stunning! Absolutely gorgeous !!!! Size was perfect

Its beautiful! Im 160 lbs. 38-33-44 5'6" Size fit great. Zipped up over boobs and hips! Lots of layers on bottom and has a slip to knees! Its really pretty! And fits great. Just measure yourself! Dont guess! Use the chart! Nicely made!!

Ich war erst etwas skeptisch ob die Bewertungen stimmen, aber ich muß sagen, daß ich ebenfalls begeister war als das Kleid schon nach 2 Tagen kam. Sieht sehr hochwertig aus und das dunkle grün wirkt sehr edel. Bin 165 cm groß und 56 kg habe S 36/38 genommen und passt perfekt. Die Länge ist mir persönlich ein bißchen zu lang trotz hoher Schuhe.. Es würde zwar gehen, reicht bis zum Boden, aber ich möchte beim laufen nicht ständig das Kleid hochheben oder den Boden putzen drum lasse ich es von einer Schneiderin ein paar cm kürzen. Aber wer es gerne ganz lang hat passt es perfekt. Es sind leider keine Cups eingearbeitet, was ich schade finde, da man dann trotzdem einen BH tragen muß (75B)

Wow! What a gorgeous dress! It looks beautiful and elegant on and fits well without being too clingy.I love the net underlay which drapes beautifullyand shows just a hint of leg! The beading looks expensive and is well finished. the skirt is long and at 5ft 8 i will need to wear heels to avoid treading on the skirt but it could easily be altered if you are of shorter stature. I can't wait to wear it to my ball!

con il titolo ho già detto molto. Calza perfettamente, non comprate una taglia in più non serve. sono 1.63 per 60 kg coppa seno tra C e D ed ho comprato una 40/42 (di solito compro M o 42/44. E' perfetto, proprio come in figura. Sono andata dalla sarta per eventuale consiglio, ma nulla era da modificare. Le paillettes donano luminosità senza essere stucchevoli ed a contrasto con il nero del sottovestito che si appoggia a terra con abbondanza, fa un figurone da non credersi. ....mi raccomando....tacchi a spillo! Un particolare ringraziamento all'operatrice del servizio clienti che è stata esaustiva a tute le mie domante con estrema gentilezza.

Me daba un poco de miedo por eso de no poder probármelo. Por el precio que tiene, me parecía que no sería muy bueno pero animada por las opiniones, lo compré. Me ha llegado antes de lo previsto y tengo que decir que el vestido es espectacular!!! Estoy súper contenta porque al tener talla grande, me resulta complicado encontrar vestidos de fiesta BBB (bueno, bonito, barato) y os aseguro que este es un BBB en toda regla. Es cierto que el tejido no ea muy duro y marca pero estiliza mucho. Si lo acompañas de un body, queda ideal. Para mi ha sido todo un acierto. Uso una 46/48 de pantalón y pedí el vestido de la talla 50-52. Estupendo. Quizá una talla menos también pero seguro que marca más así que no lo cambio. Este me viene perfecto!
