ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT

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.

Terrible
December 9, 2018

Overall unimpressed with customer service and dress. Dress took 16 days to arrive and I had to contact customer service numerous times to receive shipping information. Dress had an unflattering fit and looked nothing like the picture. When I asked for refund they first accused me of not reviewing their sizing chart before ordering. Then this is what customer service offered me "If there are no problems with the item itself, would you mind that you kindly accept it and how about we refund you US$7 as a compensation? May you give it to your family or friends as a gift? Or resell to others? Is that ok with you? As if you return it back, it will be charged the shipping fee. Hope you understand." Looks like others had this same experince. Wish I would have read more reviews first.

The dress is exactly as expected and looks just like the picture. I didn't notice any fraying, missing beads, etc. The material isn't thin (its not thick, but it certainly isn't thin) and its actually quite comfortable. It has the right amount of stretch without looking like its straining.

Good service
December 7, 2018

For these prices, the quality of the dresses is good. What caught my attention is that the customer service of this store will patiently communicate with me. The skirts arrived within their promised deadlines, which made me very satisfied. I can trust this store.

I absolutely love the store RETRO STAGE and their dresses! It is well made of a nice, heavy fabric. The first time I ordered, I went by the "fits as expected" reviews and ordered my usual size, And it perfectly fit as expected. I will definitely be ordering more retro stage dresses. These dresses would easily go for $60 or more at a department store. Highly recommended.

Very well made dress. The fabric is very nice and swings/ drapes well. It does have a fair amount of giving, so you can move in the dress without fear
Of ripping the seams. The color was just like the picture (I bought the dark blue). I am 5'1"", 175 and 36DDD girls and should have bought the XL not the XXL (a little too big is better than a too small). I did cut the tack threads at the bust line and gave the girls more room. I wore this dress to a wedding and my husband LOVED it. I got several comments on how well I looked. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars, is it had no pockets. I am an aesthetic and need a place to stash my inhaler. (note I did add a pocket myself) I was able to iron out the few wrinkles from shipping. I will buy more in different colors (dark red next) and a smaller size. Buy it you will not be sorry.

I bought this very affordable dress to wear to a wedding. I really like this dress. There is a good amount of stretch to the fabric and the dress hugs in the best places. FYI- I cut the little tacked threads in the center of the bust to open up the cleavage and it makes the dress look more like the advertised image. Also note that you can not iron this dress. I just sprayed with water and smoothed out the wrinkles. Do not tug on the wet fabric, it will miss shape the dress. All in all a very pretty and affordable dress. I would purchase again in another color.

Get surprised
November 21, 2018

Get items with modified description to fit on the retro-stage.
Or maybe getting rare item, result of mistake.

When you once received your good, you get unlimited access to funny emails bonus:
Just try to get your money back.

Your new item will always stay with you. It is to expensive to send back & for extra security you get no address.

Great Dress!
November 22, 2018

The dress I bought from Retro Stage made the party soooo much fun. It fit very well, I played it up with some fishnet tights, a chunky little heel, some gold jewelry, and a headband. It was so comfortable and I received numerous compliments. For the price, I might consider re-ordering it in another color!

Ordered a cute looking dress for $60 AUD. Firstly, I recently noticed they've been stealing photos from smaller retro companies to use on their site, most of the photos on the site are not of their products. Secondly, it took months to arrive, and I didn't expect it to be in all Chinese (even the tracking data). When it did arrive I was really upset, it was on the day of the event. The material is cheap, and doesn't match the photos, the stitching is very messy and in the wrong places, there are loose threads everywhere and the sizing is all wrong. A total waste of money and terrible customer service.

LOVE!
November 22, 2018

I ordered a 1920s dress for my Mom's Great Gatsby themed party which was going to be out of the country. I am very nervous that this dress can't arrive on time, but fortunately, the dress arrived at my home on time, great logistics. When the dress arrived, it came in a thick clear plastic bag with tags on it, no smell, and very nicely handled. The beading on this dress is incredible, the material is good. I highly recommend this dress, it is definitely stunning and worth the money. I hope this helps.

Attention all ladies!
November 19, 2018

I had my husband purchase a dress for me in an XL to attend a 20s themed party. I read all the comments and finally decided to buy on this website. It is very surprised when the small package arrived at my house(two days earlier than I expected). The customer service was very good, I send the email to correct my size and successfully received the right dress. Everything is perfect.
