Bbonlinedress1950's Bowknot Vintage Retro Polka Dot Rockabilly Swing Dress

I love this dress!! It made me feel like a princess and I received a lot of nice compliments while wearing it. I got this dress in yellow in a size small. I'm 5'6 and weigh 125 lbs. The dress is a pretty sun dress without a petticoat underneath. (which is not included) I put one on and it turned into a great tea party dress! If you don't want to wear the petticoat, I would recommend a slip underneath for the lighter colors. The material is a nice cotton with a slight bit of stretch. The shoulder bows and the waist sash are not attached and can be taken off. I would definitely recommend this dress if you want to wear something bright and feminine!

I ordered this dress in an XS for my daughter. She wears a size 2, 32D, is 5’ tall and weighs approx. 100 lbs, The bodice was loose on her, but only in that it created a slightly blousy appearance. It looked gorgeous on her, but for sizing purposes someone a little taller and heavier than she could still wear the same size but the bodice would be a little more fitted. Contrary to what other reviewers have reported, the skirt is not a true circle skirt. It is very full A-line skirt. This is important if you are planning to wear multiple crinoline skirts under it because, quite simply, you can’t. My daughter wore two three-layer crinolines underneath it, and the skirt was full enough to accommodate them, but it was not full enough to accommodate a third crinoline. When she put on the third crinoline, the skirt would no longer raise up and instead wrapped tightly around the crinolines creating a tightly packed bell shaped silhouette. We had been looking for a dress with a true circle skirt because we wanted to create a very poofy look (although this dress was so pretty on my daughter that we quickly forgave it), so hopefully this information is helpful to others.The fabric is a soft, cotton/poly blend with a tiny bit of horizontal stretch. It’s not super thick nor is it overly thin fabric. I’d say the density of the fabric is just right for the shape of the dress. The bodice is lined with a thin, synthetic blend fabric which is also soft and the skirt is unlined. I was concerned that it might look like a cheap dress based on the low price, but as soon as I saw it I was relieved. It doesn’t look cheap at all.The belt is unattached so you can tie it with the bow wherever you like. My daughter tied it to one side (the same as shown in the product pictures), but it also looks nice with the bow tied in the back if you’re looking for a dress with a simpler front.Rather than ironing this dress, we chose to steam it to remove the wrinkles from packaging. This type of fabric sometimes gets a shiny sheen to it when ironed, so I didn’t want to risk it. Therefore, although I cannot tell you how well it irons out, I can tell you it streams beautifully.Overall, we are both very pleased with this dress. I thought it was very flattering on my daughter as did she, and she said it was also very comfortable to wear. She received multiple compliments from complete strangers when she wore it, and that is really a testament to how flattering the dress is.I included a photo for reference. Yes, she is being goofy but that’s what teenagers do. :)

Bought this dress for graduation and I got good compliment. Size is true to chart I am 200 pounds ordered a 3xl because I didn't want it to be tight, but I could have taken a 2xl, wash dress and it didn't run and looks brand new same way.

beautiful perfect fit. I ordered a 2x I'm a size 16/18 5'11 and 38ddd. falls just below my knees and fits perfectly

Amazing dress!! I am 5'10 200 lbs and a US size 14. 40DD, which is important as the bodice was perfect which is unusual. Dress looks like it was made for me. the dress hits right at the knees and I got the black petticoat to go with. Perfect!!! Can be dressed up or down. The material is light but dense at the same time very flattering hides some of the extra curves that are not wanted, big plus!!

I ordered in a 3xl. I’m 5’5” and 210lbs and wear a 40F bra size. Dress fit perfectly!! It’s slightly snug in the bust but in a comfortable way. I wore this to a wedding and got tons of compliments. It looks especially good with a crendelin petticoat underneath!

This dress is so stinking adorable! Fits perfect. I ordered a large and I wear 36DDD and I'm about 5'6 155lb. It's very well made. Fabric is super soft. Great product

This dress fit like a dream and looked like fantasy. I absolutely loved it and i wasnt the only one. The boys and girls at the bar were gagging over the look. Its chic, simple, and pretty! I am a man so my natural waist is 44 but cinched and the dress looked amazing. I ordered a 2XL and it was perfect for me. Im 5'9 245 pounds thick thighs. I hope some how this helps you find a size for you. Without the cincher the dress its self dosnt really have or hold much figure.

I took a chance on the size I ordered due to the reviews stating that the same size comes up as a different fit. Admittedly I need to lose a stone, so I ordered a Large. I don't know if it's my body but the dress fitted well in some places and badly in others - the back gaped and didn't sit flat against the back thus making the dress look too big, the waist was a little snug (no fault of the dress, just the fault of my greedy self) but it could have been warn quite comfortably. However, the under arms come up too high sitting right in the armpits, which is a particular hate of mine so I knocked off a star. I would have liked the scoop of the front to come down slightly lower. Other than that I'd say it's a really nice dress, good material and great price. When I lose my weight, I'd order this again and maybe in two different sizes, but for now it has been returned for a refund. The green is gorgeous. It looked good without the petticoat but I think it would look better with one.

What can I say you will feel a million dollars in this classic dress you could dress it up or down so a wear any where dress . I’m a size 16/18 and a large bra cup size so the stretch in the cotton makes for a great and flattering fit . There were many colours plain and patterned to choose from I love navy so that was my colour choice though I will order a couple more now in different colours as you really can’t beat the price for the quality of fabric , style and fit you would expect to pay upwards of £50 elsewhere.

Pretty dress, so happy with the purchase! I bought it for a 50s themed party, with a white petticoat separately, but they complimented each other perfectly. :)

Ich habe dieses Kleid in 2 verschiedenen Farben für mich und meine Cousine bestellt. Grund war ein Faschingsball, den wir als Pin up Girls besuchen wollten.Wir waren unbeabsichtigt der Hingucker des Abends. Die Kleider sahen wirklich toll und überhaupt nicht billig aus.Mein Problem bei Kleidern ist üppiger Busen. Habe bei Konfektionsgröße S Körbchen D - da müsste ich oft zu Größe 40 greifen, die aber dann z.B. an der Hüfte viel zu weit wäre. Bei diesem Kleidermodell hat mir dennoch Gr. 36 / S wie angegossen gepasst.Konnte die Kleider auch problemlos bei 30°C waschen, lufttrocknen lassen und anschließend bügeln. Ich werde definitiv noch weitere Farben bestellen.Klare Kaufempfehlung 👍

I was expecting this dress to be cheap and tackie it's anything but. looks really nice when on it will look even better when ironed quality material I just love everything about it wanted to order the pink but they havnt got my size I'm a UK 14 and was told to order XL so glad I did it's a perfect fit thankyou to the seller will be ordering more when they get my size
