Nice dress but wrong color!! I believe that they sent me the buttercream, but they insisted this is their white dress and is more of an off-white. I compared it with my other white dress in the picture. It’s totally not white like the model picture. Even if it’s off-white, the tulle shouldn’t be this brown. I hope they fix this color issue because the model picture is very misleading. I hope they just make future dresses whiter or correct the model picture to reflect the right off-white color. Hopefully they’d send me the whiter version of the dress to make up for this unsatisfactory experience.
PS: I contacted their instagram associate first before emailing them, and she even thinks the one I got is the buttercream dress!!! If i’m not the only one who thinks this dress is not white, shouldn’t ivycity fix this issue?

STUNNING! This dress is unreal. My daughter is actually wearing it to her pageant and going with a more classy look, all eyes in her

I had ordered the white ballerina dress for a special event, baptism! Felt in love with the dress online, but once I received it the dress was beige! Not even close to an off white, it was “BEIGE!” I even doubled checked myself and nope I did order it on white, very disappointing since it was for a special event!

When I saw the photos of this dress I knew I had to have it! Love the skirt and the sweetheart neckline! The sizing is hard, given that the waist is pretty small, but it is just a tighter fit. Such a beautiful dress!

It definitely is on the snug side but I prefer it to be more fitted than loose! The tulle is a bit more stiff but overall it is a lovely dress!!! I wish the neckline was slightly higher but I’ll just have to watch out when I lean forward lol

I feel like this dress you either love it or hate it! I personally love it. The tulle is very stiff and I do prefer the fabric of the floral ballerina over this one, but I did buy this job for a special occasion! Watch my video for steaming tips and size reference!

Love this dress! I’ll be wearing this for my wedding reception dress! The skirt is fuller than the black ballerina, which I love, but I know isn’t for everyone. If you prefer the sleek and soft look, go with the black one! This one has more princess vibes!

I have to say I love this dress but it was a little different than I expected. The tulle is very stiff and not as flowy. I am wearing a size small but I feel like is tight around the ribs so I was thinking maybe a medium would fit better. The top is very soft and I love the neckline. The zipper has lots of issues going up even when I’m not wearing it so I’m hoping to exchange it.

Love this one even more than the black one! Soo classy and true to size!

Loved this dress! Found it was hard to steam and get the wrinkles out. It was quite wrinkled when I got it. It got a bit loose in the chest area but usual for me. It was so pretty for my schools sweethearts dance and I got so many compliments!!!

I love the Ballerina in White... makes me nostalgic for my dancing days! Yes.. plan on steaming the skirt before wear because the tuelle is stiff otherwise. The waist fits well.. though the sleeves do fall off my shoulders ... that’s normal for my body type though and I will get it altered. Helps if you have a bigger bust too LOL I’m just going to say it!
I am 5ft and got the XXS

I think it runs a little small but could also be zipper issues. It’s sooo pretty and it got me to buy a steamer so I can easily get it ready (haven’t done it yet, stealer still in box). Waiting on the floral now!

What a beautiful dress

Runs true to SIZE CHART, I usually wear M on other styles, but according to the size chart I needed to size up. It's beautifully made, I only wish it offer more coverage on the bust area. I love that is not off white, but more ivory color. The sleeves, belt, wow! it's a beautiful design! I'm sure it'll turn into an Ivy classic. Again... gorgeous decision making ladie: please consider more coverage for us the busty ladies.

Pretty but off White.
The dress is beautiful but I thought it was a white didn’t realize it was an off white it’s more of an ivory color and I really wanted a white I also usually wear a large and the large wouldnt zip up where my waist is but the bust part fit fine so if I size up it will be too big but it’s definitely a beautiful dress if you have the black and it fits I definitely recommend getting this one unfortunately my size is weird and no matter what it will either be too big or too small so hoping the future ones they make have a smocked back.

Ballerina dress
I love the dress, but it’s really false advertising. It is NOT white, it’s ivory. The pictures also show the model wearing the dress that looks much fuller because they sewed extra layers in it. If you want it to look exactly like the picture, then do not get it. Other than that, its a really cute style.

Pretty but off white
Beautiful dress and flattering cut! It is off white, and the tulle is a little stiffer than the black ballerina. I believe this is on purpose, so the skirt can appear fuller, so if you are into a full skirt, this is for you! If you prefer softer feeling tulle, I’d go with the black ballerina instead!
Kelly
Cute dress but bad color.
The dress itself fit like a glove and was really cute but the only is not white. Looks like the color of a white tshirt that someone wore too much and it turned off white and yellowish.
Elaine
Black ballerina
I have this dress in black and it’s the prettiest dress ever. The tulle is so dreamy and the sweetheart neckline gives it a girly look.
Naomi A.
Gorgeous
This dress is gorgeous but it does run snug like the black ballerina dress. Also the tulle is way stiff compared to the black. On the fence about keeping it because of the stiffness. It is a beautiful dress though! I’m just too scared to wash and steam it and the tulle not soften up.
Christy
So pretty, but mid layer is a bit difficult
Ah this dress is so stunning that it hurts me so much that I may have to return it! The mid shell layer is hard and stiff nylon which helps the dress stay airy and shaped but it’s very difficult to manage if you don’t have a steamer. Even then, if you sit down for a long time the mid shell gets all scrunched up it you may have to wear it that way for the rest of the day as you can’t just stroke the wrinkles off. I can’t stress how pretty this dress is though!

Love
Ahhhh I love this dress so much but I don’t have a steamer. Too scared to put it in the dryer. Had to return but it is soooooo beautiful
Holly
Beautiful but stiff
I LOVE the silhouette of thIs dress! I’m obsessed with the black one but this one is a bit too stiff for my liking and you cannot wear a dark bra/undershirt as it shows through a bit.
Caroline
Perfect
Just like the black ballerina dress this dress in white is perfect and beautiful for any special occasion
Lyn R.
Overpriced!
The silhouette of the dress is fairytale but that’s the nicest thing about it. The tulle is super cheap and scratchy, does not lay nice, needs extreme steaming to get it to be wearable. Also the bodice is flimsy and not flattering, the waist is cut very small. It should be priced under $100 for what you are getting but I know it’s been hyped for a while.

Feeling those ballerina vibes!
I loved this dress so much in black, I got it in white too. It's seems like a creamy/white/ivory which I was very happy with. Dresses designed/made/sold by women truly make all the difference! Women get women's bodies!

ballerina dress
it looks poorly made. and the way the top details are makes it very unflattering on the chest. i usually love ivy city dresses but this one is not it :/
