Retro Stage

No my dress didn't come torn.

The dress was surprisingly decent quality; a little on the loose end but I prefer a little bit of space.

The shoes on the other hand were a bit odd. I ordered a size 9 and as that is the largest size they have, I was a little concerned that they might be too small. However they were actually a bit too big.
The buckle was rather strange too. Not an ordinary clasp buckle, it had a strange hooking element. I'm not sure if the buckle set up is is supposed to be historically accurate (1950s)… that would explain some things, but I would still prefer an ordinary shoe buckle set up.
The T strap of the shoe was too big. The part that goes around the ankle, with the buckle, could be fixed easily by adding holes oneself. However, the part of the T strap, going down the center over the foot, was also too long and I'm not sure if it would be an easy fix.

I feel like it may not be worth sending back the shoes and waiting for them to ship new shoes as it took long enough for the package to get here, and the packaging itself was rather shoddy.

I should add that I am a size 9US women's and the and that sometimes I'm nearly 9.5 to10 in shoe size depending on the company/shoe type and these were still too big.

NOTE: The shipping time did not trouble me, considering I did read what the site said, and they dutifully explained that packages could take up to a month. Shipping can take some time, depending on what your order. My shoes did make it before the dress, and they held the shoes at the nearest shipping facility until the dress had arrived.

Bought the burgundy color, as it is flattering to my complexion and hair color. Was not disappointed. A true deep burgundy, which is is a very popular color this fall.
I am just under 5'5" and wear a size 10. The dress fits true to size but even though I have long legs, it is a bit too long on me.
Prefer it to be above the knee, so I will take it to my tailor to be altered. Worth the extra expense to have it shortened, especially since I bought it with my coupon discounts.
As most of the other reviewers stated, this is a very forgiving silhouette. The layers hide a multitude of body issues and I felt pretty and comfortable wearing it. I am 59 years old and not as slim as I used to be. I am body conscious and was happy with how I looked in this dress. It is so lovely.
Some other reviewer mentioned buying it in black. Could not find it in black on the website. If it was available, I would definitely buy! I think it would be the perfect LBD! Hope you wear this dress and feel pretty amazing and enjoy your special dayin the dress and cannot wait to buy more.

I'm in love with the designs. Always getting great feedback from others. It does take a while for them to arrive but worth the wait! :)

I bought a dress and underskirt during one of the deals about a month ago, and received an email saying it was out of stock. That was fine, I could wait as on the site it looked like a wonderful dress and I was excited to get it. When I did receive the dress (Tuesday 8th October) it was made from very cheap material, the top of the dress was fraying and had a hole in the lacework on the back. With the top of the dress, it wasn't meant to be made of lace, on the site it looked like a more solid flexible material but I could look past it being lace if it wasn't done as badly as it was. There was no elasticity to the top so it would have just hung limply around my elbows, the lacing on the top and around the sleeve edges was fraying or there were odd bits of string hanging off of it. The bottom of the skirt was made from what I can only describe as a shower curtain.

I have bought a dress from this site before and I think it was wonderful, I wore it to a family friends wedding and it felt like a quality made dress but this second order has made me lose faith that what I receive is a 50/50 chance of actually getting what I ordered or getting a cheaply made party costume.

And with the refund policy, to return the dress the customer has to pay the return shipping cost (which for where I am and where they are situated costs me around $40), and the dress cost $33.59 so don't expect to get your money back if you want to return a product from this site.

I've bought two dresses so far and both of them are beautiful! Very cute designs and great customer service!

I ordered this dress for a military appreciation ball that my husband and I attended back during Veteran's Day Weekend. I ordered at the beginning of October and didn't think twice about it. Than I made the mistake of Googling reviews for Retro-Stage and became nervous. Everyone was crying and claiming they were scammed and that it took "over 2 months" for their dresses to come. Maybe that was their experience but it wasn't mine. My dress came within the time frame I was quoted - which was less than two weeks. It fit beautifully! I sort of got a bit of Princess Diana feel from this dress, seeing how it fit me. I felt so elegant and beautiful as we danced the night away. I even got a lot of compliments on how pretty my dress was. I plan on taking this dress on a cruise we are going on with my parents this coming June to wear on the formal night. The dress is great quality! I love how it fits and feels. It catches the light beautifully. I love Retro-stage and will be making future purchases. The dresses are reasonably priced and my experience is a good quality dress. It also helps that I love retro and vintage styles which is exactly what this company specializes in! 10/10 WILL buy from Retro-Stage again!

I love my new outfits and shoes from retro stage. They fit great and are super cute. I have gotten tons of compliments on them.

I ordered one dress from Retro-Stage. I wore this dress at my bachelorette party and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! The matI ordered one dress from Retro-Stage. I wore this dress at my bachelorette party and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! The material is super stretchy (so don't order too big) and it is very comfortable and classy! I added a waist belt and a tutu skirt/slip for underneath just to give it a little more flare. Love you, RETRO-STAGE.
