This is the most perfect little black dress for plus sizes with a full bust. Insanely good draping and coverage. No special bra or spanx required. Might not work for petites. Runs true to size.
This is a wonderfully well-made dress, but sadly it didn’t work for my straight-sided figure. It was flattering on my apple belly, but I need a dress that does more to define my thick waist.
That said, I would highly recommend this for figures with a curvier lower half than mine. (It was too low-cut for my unusually high bustline, but I don’t think the neckline would be modest for most people.) I think this dress would be appropriate for many occasions depending on how it was accessorized.
Correcting my uneditable review above to say that I *do* think the neckline would be modest for most people!
I also want to add that the fabric is substantial so it might be too heavy for very hot climates, but the weight and coverage make it perfect for a mild day or air-conditioned interiors. The heavy fabric draped well and skimmed over all my lumpy bits so I felt no need for shapewear.
