I love getting new and unique styles at a good price. Just keep in mind the sizes are a bit small especially in the arms and you will have wonderful garments with style!

Perfection!
November 15, 2018

I am so inexplicably happy at how wonderful of a fit this dress was. It was comfortable enough to wear at a hot wedding in New York. I only wore some normal sized wedge heels and it only grazed the floor when I walked downstairs. The sequins were not very itchy, other than after a few hours of sitting on them your butt gets bead imprints.
Other than that it's completely comfortable to wear. To be frank, it is also very easy to pee in. The dress isn't very stiff so it's easy to go in and just lift it. I am so incredibly happy that I chose this dress for my Grandparent's 50th year anniversary celebration. I got lots of complements!

Great service!

I needed a dress for one wedding and wasn't sure about online shopping, but the dress I ordered from Retro Stage came even more beautiful than in photo and even before expected time and for excellent price!

It looks very suitable to match with my new vintage dress! It helps me a lot in choosing a hair decoration. Love it!

Even when I put the dress in my mother's hand, she squeaked that she would NEVER like her. I just heard, "NO, no, no!" YOU WILL LOVE IT! They are really beautiful, they fit the breast, they are not so long they are not so short, just wonderful. There are still a lot of beautiful and funny dresses in this store.

Good company
November 8, 2018

I bought a dress from the site, I thought it would be much different from picture, but to my surprise, it's the same as the picture and the quality is so good. About the delivery, yes, it's a little bit slow. Then I contaced their customer service, they told me it'sout of stock, and it will be sent out when it's in stock, and told me to wait about 14 days. Then I got it on 13 day. Their customer service is so kind and reliable. Recommend!

Their clothing is as cheap as their price. I returned the clothes as instructed and was told that the only way I could get my money back is if I sent them tracking information. I have now emailed them THREE times and each time my email has not gone through because their mailbox is FULL. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!

This is by far the worst online shopping experience I have ever had. Dress ordered was "dollar store" quality and they still gave yet to respond with a refund after sending it back unworn! Terrible!

From retro stage.com, I have purchased a 1920 dress for my daughter and sent it to college for a 20's Gatsby Halloween party. I took the advice from the reviews that I had read, an ordered a size up for my daughter. Normally she wears a medium, but she has a large bust and flat bottom and it fit GREAT! Perfect across the chest, a little loose in the waist (which isn't a bad thing) and hugged her bottom in the right places! Plus, she is petite, and all the other dresses I looked at looked to be very long! She loved the length, fit her like the model you see pictured! The dress stops first and the fringe came to mid thigh! She was a big hit!

Okay
November 2, 2018

It took a lot of back and forth as they didn't have the dress I wanted in stock and didn't send me an order confirmation. Eventually, I was able to order a similar dress in a different colour. The sizing was a little off and I needed to get it adjusted but the dress was good quality material and not super expensive.
Their customer service could use some work though. They took for too long to get back to you and were really abrupt via email.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!
October 30, 2018

I ordered a size L, when the dress came, it was a 3XL which was a size 18, way too big. They have offered me solutions to make the dress fit but will not refund or return the dress for a right size, even though they sent me the wrong size. Days and about 10 email later the most they will offer is $10 off the price I paid. NEVER BUY FROM THIS SITE. THEY DON'T HAVE A RETURN POLICY EVEN THOUGH IT IS LISTED ON THEIR SITE.

Super cute. It fits nicely it's very oversized so go with ur normal size. The only thing that is bad is the zip doesn't go up. The zip line is curved so when you try connect the two zips they can't zip up cause it's curved. But apart from that amazing

It is absolutely perfect
October 29, 2018

Just received my dress and it is absolutely perfect. Size and quality are fantastic. Highly recommend. Took about 2 weeks to arrive which was okay as i wasn't needing it for anything soon.

I could've definitely ordered a size smaller, but I made it work. Also, the material is more of a costume quality than an actual dress. But it was cute! I used it as a "Navy" costume for my cat's veterinarian's contest and party. I got a lot of compliments. Decent price. I would try this vendor again.

Very pretty
October 22, 2018

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.

Love mine! It has some pretty good stretch to it. I wish I would have ordered a size smaller. But, I'm making it work. I got a ton of compliments in this dress.

Satisfying website
October 19, 2018

I ordered many dress on this website, and I am satisfied with most of the dress. But one of the dress is a little small, so I choose to return it. Then, I have to pay for the postage and waste some time. I advice that you can choose a little large size than what you measure. In general, it is an satisfying website.

A gorgeous dress
October 19, 2018

This dress is absolutely gorgeous. The quality is great, looks very expensive. It's very comfortable. I am 5' 9", 138 lbs. I ordered the SMALL. The hem falls above the knee and the fringe falls to about mid-calf. It was so nice to wear a fancy dress that you're not dying to get out of after 2 hours.

Would buy again
October 19, 2018

I ordered according to the seller's size chart and the fit was perfect. I love the fabric- it is light cotton and the design clear and saturated. This is a perfect dress for summer and spring!
