“I did all the things honey love asked for this dress and with an hour glass shape got a very fitted almost can’t sit and zip dress.
It’s beautiful perfect length for 5’4 inch gal. Weight 122. Chest 34b But very very tight. Dress took a while to zip as friend had to pinch it every strep of the way to zip. As I bought it on final sale can’t return. So aiming to drop two addl lbs to have it fit better.
Don’t know if medium would be too big.”

“This is a very nice black dress, that can be easily dressed up or down, work well for layering even if I add a cardigan on top or a turtleneck under. It would be flattering on more shapes than most regular straight dresses, but it's not compressive enough to replace shapewear. The rouching around the waist is creating a nicer look, but won't hide bloating and it's still not enough for me (I am rather thin, but apple shaped so my tummy sticks out no matter what). The crepe knit fabric looks a little cheap, but I still like it better than anything smoother; the material is very prone to being damaged, so take care which other clothes you are washing this with, zippers and hooks can cause damage. It has an inner liner which is visible under, especially at the bottom. It's a little bit difficult to get the zipper close on your own, but it has a piece of string that helps pulling it out. I purchase an S, my regular Honeylove size, and it's actually loose, not snug; I wouldn't size up. For me it's perfect, because I can wear my large collection of turtlenecks underneath. The length it's pass my knees (I'm 5'5''), but I can bunch it to be bellow my knees without looking off.”
“Beautiful dress but the sizing was off for me.
Re-ordered a bigger size & since this was a final sale will give the smaller one to my daughter.
Really does hold you in all the right places! Very chic!”
“Two things I wish were different...
1) I couldn't zip myself into my dress; and
2) I wish there was another version for a shorter length for petite people (5'4" and under).
All that said, the dress is so flattering once on. A shorter length for short gals would have kept it from bunching in the middle after a while but it soothes and smooths all your curves in the right places when in place.”
“I ordered it from them via Facebook. The dress is lovely and arrived in nice packaging. However, I need a medium instead of a small and the website says that I can't exchange it. I wouldn't have bought something that I believed was not exchangeable.”
