PattyCandy Women's Winter Long Sleeve Soft Velvet Skater Dress - Elegant Flared A-Line Party Dress for Christmas, Holiday Parties & Casual Outings

I really like this item. I am a size 16 and, thanks to another review, I ordered a 4XL (I would usually order an XL or 1X). The fit is definitely way small, but since I ordered based on the other review, the fit was perfect.This dress is very comfortable, and it is perfect for dressy or casual. I can throw on some sneakers with it or I can wear heels and nice jewelry, and it works for either scenario. The fabric is a good thickness - not too light or too heavy - and it will pack very small, which will be great for travel. This is the only dress I plan to take on my next cruise. Highly recommended, but beware of the size discrepancy.This is too tight on me even though I've been losing weight. I'm returning it and ordering an XXL in another color. The yellow is a little see through. Other than that I really like it. I'm looking forward to the larger gray one.Runs VERY small. I wear a size 14 dress and following instructions, I ordered a 3XL and it was still too small :( I got it on, but it was very tight. Even at that, the material was nice and smooth, but quite thin and would show every bump and roll. The neck is very low, like a wrap around, but you could wear a cami under it for that. I'm returning it.Based on previous reviews I ordered a 4XL (I wear a size 16) and it was a size too big and the material/rouching just didn't fit well. Returning.I bought this in a Large eventhough I typically wear a Medium. This dress was still pretty tight around my mid section, but still very nice. For reference, I'm 5 ft, 135 lbs and a 36C cup. I found that the ruched band under my breast pulled up a bit and when I did fix it, there was quite a bit of cleavage showing. Regardless, the dress is pretty and I bought it for less than $8. I may order more colors and just go up another size.Material a little thin but good for my climate. I'm long waisted and the "cumberbund" belt was higher than I like but still looks ok. Color is lipstick red, not an off color. For the price I'm very satisfied.Good basic knee length in a color I did not yet have.So far have not worn but did try on....comfortable and very cute!
