TopdressWomen'sVintage Polka Audrey Dress 1950s Halter Retro Cocktail Dress

I bought this dress for my Bridal Shower. I ordered one size up b/c I’m more of a busty girl with a smaller waist and wider hips (hourglass shape). The fabric matched the image of the white floral pattern. The tie around the waist is just that, a long piece of fabric. It’s best to know how to tie a cute bow for this dress, the fabric was long enough to go around my waist and tie a decent bow. The neck line sits higher than I’m use to but it’s more appropriate than what I was expecting, which is great for the crowd I will be in. Because I ordered one size up, the middle around the waist was considerably bigger than needed; but the lace up back helped synch in to fit great. I added a petticoat (white) underneath for a slightly more full effect. Without it, the dress does lay somewhat flat (my hips do flare it out a bit without the petticoat). I gave it 5 stars b/c for the price and what was received the only thing I could even be upset about is the fact that I have to iron it. (Not even mad at it). Would highly recommend.

Received lots of compliments, it looks well made and classic. Very cute and slimming shape. I dont mind the plaid pattern not meeting at the seams. I wish the fabric had more movement and that the skirt had more fabric for spreading out while seated.

I am very pleased with my purchase. Shipping was very quick and my items were nicely packaged. I purchased a size Medium and I am 5'7 and appropriately 140-150 (I fluctuate depending on the time of year, lol... as most of us women do)...and it fits just perfect in all areas. The length comes to about my knees. I am not that well endowed, size 34 or 36/B, so I do like that you can tighten or loosen the back to fit your frame, within reason of course. The belt is detachable and would also work nicely as a hair piece...and there is also a side zipper for easier dressing. I bought a navy blue petticoat with it and the length on it with the dress is also perfect. However, I debated between the navy blue, (which I purchased) and the white, I almost wish I'd of gone with the white because the navy is a tad lighter then the dress, but nothing to where anyone would notice, other then myself. Its barely noticeable, so I will be keeping the navy petticoat.All-in-all, I am VERY pleased and excited to wear this get-up this spring to my EMS picnic, for EMS week! I also purchased an adorable summer hat to go along with it and am currently awaiting on the shoes to go with my ensemble.Hope this helps. I myself looked over all the reviews and tried to add in what helped the most.

I really love this dress. Polka dots are always a go to for me especially red and black. How cute does it look with red lipstick!?The dress fit as expected. I usually wear a size 16 dress and a 38 C cup. It was a little loose on top but nothing the corset on the back couldn't fix. That corset on the back is great. Not only does it make the top of the dress tighter, if you need it. It also helps bring out your curves. Plus the halter helps with altering how high or low you would like it.The only down side is the piece around the waist to create the bow. I had thought the bow was apart of the dress but it is a separate piece. For me it is not long enough to make a cute bow in the front or back. It makes a small awkward one.

Orders this for my Engagement photos i used their size chart fit me perfect. Great quailty material very well made love this dress i did but a pettie coat to give it aittle flare

I normally wear a large & that's what I bought & fits great! Lots of compliments!

This dress is wonderful. Good fabric and very comfortable.

I am so very happy with this dress. I wore it to a friend's wedding and got so many compliments! It fits as expected per the size chart, but since the back is ruched elastic with a corset-type tie, you can adjust this to your liking. I had to cinch it pretty tight to keep it from sliding down my back (maybe some fabric tape would help). That said, I would NOT size down as then it wouldn't fit in the waist. This dress offers great coverage in the back despite being a halter (I am weary of halter tops as they seem to have absurdly low backs, but not this one!). I did wear this dress with a petticoat, but it can be worn without. It is well-made and a good medium-thick material, but still breathable for warmer weather.For reference, I am 5'6", 245lbs with a 46DD bust, 42" waist, and 47" hip.

The fabric was different and the shape of the dress is also different. This belongs on one of those "dress fail" internet posts.
