Reviews

On my wish list for ages

"This dress was sitting on my wish list for ages how ever I was waiting for some more money saved up to buy her. I do love it and I’ve worn her ALOT since buying. It’s just a shame about the polyester material. For a dress that is so expensive I was expecting cotton or something similar. I know it was listed in the description but who can honestly say they read all that unless: A- absolutely necessary, or B- because you suspect there’s a chance it may be low quality (given the price I had no reason to suspect)"

Would not recommend, unfortunately

"I like the design and it looked nice. I would recommend sizing up or being prepared to wear a minimiser bra. I’m really disappointed with the quality. I wore it once and when i got home the bottom button had ripped off and it’s not repairable because it took the surrounding material with it. I don’t even know how it happened. I certainly didn’t experience anything that felt like it could rip my clothes."

Great dress for larger chests

"Size 20 (UK) fit so well! I am a 40G(US)/40FF(UK) bra and this buttoned over my chest without any gaping!! It's a very flattering cut. I don't usually go for that type of sleeve but it looks so good! Its not a heavy dress; regular, thinner cotton with no stretch so it'll be good for all seasons! Love it."

Kale (5/5)

Fantastic

"I wear this all the time and have had to many compliments. The tie back really pulls in the waist and gives a good silhouette."

Gemma M. (5/5)

Love it

"As pictured. Great fit, love it. Only downside is it will need ironing and I hate ironing haha but it's worth it. I have pretty long legs and am 5'7" and it goes nearly half way down my calves - so if you're short you may find it a bit long. But for the tall gals it's a win!"

Jaz (5/5)

Great

"Great quality fabric and an even better fit."

Starr (5/5)

Absolutely love this dress!

"Nice material. Lovely shape. Great price: washes well. Love it!"

Shona (5/5)

disappointed

"I loved the dress, but I was expecting a different material; this one wrinkles very easily. I washed it to wear it for the first time, and one of the straps came undone."

Jess (3/5)

Not the quality I expect from Disturbia

"Very papery feel, not a huge fan."

Emma M. (3/5)

Perfectly goth

"I had to have this one as soon as I saw it, although I personally think it could do without the tie at the back, idk it just doesn’t really make sense to me since it doesn’t go all the way around. Anyway other than that I love everything about this dress. The puff sleeves, the collar, and the embroidery along the buttons all come together to make a really nice looking dress! The quality and way it looks is fabulous as well. Very happy with this one!"
