“I found this dress while shopping for a dress for my daughter's wedding. While this dress won't work for that occasion, I couldn't resist ordering it. I am always on the search for a perfect little black dress. This one has a very flattering length for most women. I am 5'10" and it hits just below the knee on me. This dress does run a little larger than I was expecting. I ordered both the 22/24 and the 18/20 since it was my first purchase from Igigi. The 18/20 fit perfectly. The neckline is very feminine and the 3/4 sleeves will span most seasons in this fabric. It also travels well, I plan to pack it this summer as my 'go to' dress for a business/pleasure 4 week trip!_x000D_
Good job Igigi.”
“From the moment I put this dress on, I knew it was a winner. It fits fantastic, the fabric drapes beautifully and the style is so flattering - accentuates all one's lovely feminine curves! Fantastic quality, classically beautiful style that is unlikely to date quickly. I foresee that I will be buying this frock in whatever cololur it comes out in... a deep aubergine purple would be divine!_x000D_
Thanks!”
“I ordered this and needed it shipped to an APO address in Japan and it only took two weeks to get here. I ordered a size down according to their measurements and it fits perfectly. My husband comes home from Afghanistan and I look forward to wearing the dress. I love it so much I am ordering it in red. VERY FLATTERING!! and it covers the chest area just enough to flatter and not show too much. PERFECT LITTLE BLACK DRESS!”
“I wore this dress to two weddings this weekend and received compliments all night long. I generally don't get a lot of compliments so I have to give credit to the gorgeous Francesca dress! I felt incredible in it. It's just stretchy enough to have some give when you sit or bend but it's strong enough to smooth out some of those unwanted bumps. : ) I am generally an 18 pant and a 16 top. I used the sizing chart which told me to go for a 14/16 after measuring my bust at a 48. It was right on the edge so I was nervous but followed the recommendations and got the 14/16 and am so glad I did. The next size would have been much too big. Seriously worth the $160. This will be a staple in my wardrobe. I'm contemplating buying another just in case you stop selling it one day. THANK YOU!”
“My graduation was looming and I wanted to look 'ab fab' (absolutely fabulous)and of course, to use the dress for special occasions. Being from Northern Ireland and slightly dubious regarding the fact that I could order a dress from the US, the International shipping and the possibility of a return seemed daunting. That said, I read the 125+ reviews and thought, 'well, they can't all be wrong' - so I ordered the dress. Literally within a week, the dress arrived......tah dah! I LOVED IT! I put it on and just loved everything about it: the fit was perfect, the arm size was perfect (I had my reservations since someone else had noted the arms were small. PS I have big arms and it was perfect on me), I loved the flow and cut of the dress. More than anything, this garment seemed to hide the bulges and make me feel very sophisticated and sexy at the same time. Just a small note on the Customer Service - EXCELLENT! I recieved emails about shipping and was informed during the entire process (thank you Candace). I TRULY BELIEVE YOU WILL NOT FIND another dress made for voluptuous women! You have a valued customer for life!”
“I love this dress! As the Executive Director of a large non profit, and being full figured, I am not one to be excited about shopping for cocktail to formal attire. Found this website, ordered this dress, and absolutely love it!_x000D_
The ONLY thing that would make me any happier is if you offered this in a full length version. Please consider! Don't change one thing but the length! It would sell like gangbusters! And I would be the first to order! _x000D_
Thank you for beautiful fitting and flattering clothing for the full figured woman. You are a gem!”
“A simple black dress that flows off the hips. I purchased this dress based on reviews and the suggestions of going down a size which I did. I purchased the size 12 and for me I think my regular size 14/16 may have been a slightly better fit on my body. The dress is light weight and stretchy, there's no zipper so if your broad shouldered I wouldn't suggest going down a size on this dress. The dress is lined and the length fell at just about 2 inches below the knee. The sleeves are 3/4 length which is nice for wearing bangles however they were very tight. (I do have thicker upper arms though) the empire waist fit snug, I didn't have any problems the the bust line gapping open. _x000D_
The dress flowed smoothly over the hips._x000D_
This dress depending on accessories can be dressed up or down._x000D_
My measurements are; height 5'4" weight 200lbs bust 44 (bra size 40C) waist 39 hips 49_x000D_
The top part of the dress was very form fitting and snug on my body in a size 12._x000D_
