Hanpceirs Women's Boatneck Sleeveless Swing Vintage 1950s Cocktail Dress New

I got this to wear on Christmas. I ordered it on December 22n’d, it arrived on time. I got xtra large. I am 5’4” and 170lbs, but most of my weight is on my bum/thighs and arms. I have a narrow waist and small chest. The dress hit exactly at my knee. I haven’t washed it yet and I don’t know, but don’t anticipate it any shrinking. It fit with some additional room in the waist/chest area but was comfortable and fit perfect for a holiday, lots of room for all the food I ate and super comfortable for all the sitting I did, but I could have gotten a large. **NOTE** However, I have to say that it wasn’t what I was expecting, as I buy this dress in different patterns often. It has been one year since I bought one however and these are the noted changes… The material is very different and initially, out the bag I was VERY upset… but there’s a happy ending! So, I have tried to highlight the differences in the attached pictures. For the comparison the older dress from 2021 is Red/Navy, while the Green/Navy dress is the newest from 12/24 (the most recent dress prior to this one is from Winter 2023 and is the same as the red/navy). For starters the new one has a liner…YES, a glorious liner!! I have some small sensory issues, but with this dress… I could sleep in this dress! Don’t get me wrong, the red one is comfortable, but it is nothing compared to the new green/navy lined dress! While the old dress is obviously mostly cotton, evident by everything in the world wanting to stick to it. It does a far better job in catching all the lint than the dryer lint basket!! I now wash and dry that dress alone! Yet it gets worse, the red/navy, notorious for the stubborn wrinkles! The come out with ironing and you get a couple hours of sophistication.. But this new dress (hearts for pupils) The new dress ARRIVED in an amazon special delivery bag(sarcasm) it arrived in a BALL, but that darn thing slipped out and was ready to wear. Now that I think about it, I am pretty sure an iron would melt it, lol! But lets not get bogged down with silly details. What is important is that despite my initial hate and skepticism for the change in material…. after wearing it on Christmas I then decided to wear it on my drive home, 14 hours!!! And that trip was never more comfortable! Lastly, it comes with a sash, of which I didn’t wear around my waist, instead i used it for a headband, when they come with the sash I usually go the headband route, but you should know it was BIG, the sash was ready for anyone’s waist, for real.. Also note there are no sash loops on the dress, which I prefer. Finally, I returned to order more and figured I would leave a review. They’re true to size IMO, comfortable and versatile. I often wear these dresses with a pull over sweater/boat neck.. and you can’t see the top so it appears that I am wearing a skirt and top. Or you can wear a cardigan, or you can wear a white button down dress shirt (fitted), but of course it really needs nothing. Overall it is a very pretty and flattering cut and I love the new material. Not sure what is up with the tags, but I don’t care either. Ordering more.

Size purchased: SMALLMy measurements:Height: 5'1.25" (155.575 cm)Weight: 138lbs (62.5957 kg)Waist: 27" (68.58 cm)Inseam: 27.5" (69.85 cm)Bra size: 34E(DD)Perfect fit! Great quality, white is non-see through. Dress did come with sash for bow, I just didn't tie/attach it for the picture. Sash is also good quality fabric. As you can see, the skirt is not as full as in the stock photo. Other reviews mentioned adding a petticoat to make the skirt fuller; I personally love the amount of fit-and-flare. The colors are bright, vibrant, and crisp. I am NOT wearing a bra in these photos.

The dress color was beautiful. It fit well enough. I just didn’t like the feel of the fabric (it’s a synthetic crepe feeling) and worried in FL heat for sweating at a wedding.*I probably would have kept it but I noticed heavy deodorant marks on the inside of the dress & I didn’t have the time to dry clean this or order another one.Give yourself time. & try them out, they have beautiful things, this just missed the mark for me

Want a classic look, this dress delivers…….add a ruffled petticoat under and it’s perfect……so classic and will never be out of style……nicely made and the fabric is very nice.

The dress was a perfect fit. I wore this to a charity event with a tulle slip under it to give it volume and received many compliments.

If you're not wearing a petticoat underneath, this dress is for you. Beautiful dress and fit me like a glove. Unfortunately I had to return it because the material is too thin and lightweight to hold down a petticoat properly. The petticoat will flare the thin material out so much you'll look like a poodle skirt girl. The dress was lined only at the bodice not the a skirt. I purchased another dress from a previous vendor who uses thick material.

Bought for cocktail attire at a school event. Super cute!!Size: xs / weight: 125lbs / height: 5’8

Did not come with bow and looks different in the top than pictured. But goes with overall vibe I was looking for well so only took away one star.
