Ah!!! This dress was everything ✨ It gave all the classic modern Christmas vibes. Yet I could easily see myself wearing this to a wedding or an event of that sort. Its construction is strong and sturdy, high quality fabric and fit snug in the mid section. I almost exchanged it for a bigger size but then I realized I liked how it pressed my mid rolls in a bit allowing me to be free of my girdle I was so comfortable and got compliments left and right. I felt so beautiful. I was even able to get the mini version for my daughter, thank you Ivy City for making mommy and me dreams a reality for us plus size mommas.
*I wore a 3X for reference I am 310lbs and 5’2

This dress is so pretty and well made. I wore it for my Birthday! I had a bit of a fit issue with the chest being a bit big and the waist being a bit tight. I think this dress would be perfect for ladies who need ample room for their chest. All in all, I like it!
Kayley D.
I loved this dress for so long, and was so excited to get it!
I think it does run true to size, but I was would stress there is NO stretch, and also it’s fitted perfectly - I’m a medium normally, but pregnant, went with my normal and I’ll just say I would have to be diligent with my weight management for it to fit for a wedding in June im a bridesmaid in. ( haha not stressful at all)
So if you’re planning to wear it for a bump picture, definitely size up!
I know it’ll fit perfectly when I’m back pre-pregnancy weight.

I purchased this dress for a formal event for work and I'm extremely pleased with it. The fit is so nice and flattering. I did do my measurements and compared to the size chart to ensure I had the sizing correct since I was purchasing a final sale color, and the sizing was fairly consistent with my measurements and what size the chart indicated to purchase. I might have been able to size down a size, but I couldn't take a risk and lucky for me it isn't so much too big that it's not okay. Highly recommend this dress. Great quality and beautiful fit!
Samantha L.
So cute and very flattering!! Got so many compliments on this dress. The only thing negative thing I would say is the inside is a little itchy (still worth it though!)
Summer S.
It’s so pretty, I do wish the shoulders were smaller and that it was a little shorter.
Christina S.
I love this dress! It was perfect for Christmas and is so beautiful. It fits great, and I love the sweetheart neckline.
Anca H.
Perfect Christmas dress.
Colleen A.
I wore this dress for Christmas and my brother’s wedding rehearsal dinner. I loved it and everyone else loved it, too! It’s so much fun to have a classically beautiful dress to wear.
Frances C.
Beautiful dress! Slightly scratchy around the waist. 5'8" 135 lbs in a small.
Chelsea K.
Absolutely gorgeous dress! I’ve never received so many compliments on a dress until putting this beauty on! The the feminine details are to die for! Ivy city you did it again!
CYNTHIA M.
This was awesome for the holidays. It was true to size.
Amy B.
Absolutely beautiful dress with great material and quality. However was a bit too big for me, my fault though. I’m in between sizes. So i can give you the full effect. I will wear this dress for as long as i fit in it!
Jocelyn B.
This dress is beautiful! The fabric is such high quality and I love that the sleeves have a little beige lining to give more shoulder coverage. My true size fits but is a little big in the shoulders and tighter in the waist.
Mary P.
Absolutely gorgeous dress! Very well made. Quality materials. I loved it so much! Sadly, it did not suit me.
Jennifer N.
This dress absolutely made me feel like a princess. The sleeves are just magical. It fits really well and is a rich, lovely color.
Viviana Lorelle H.
Love, love, love and I’ve only tried it on.
Looking forward to using this dress for my friend’s wedding. Ivy City dresses are amazing as they are. But you know what would make them even better? Pockets. You add pockets to your dresses, and I’m a customer for life. ♡
Courtney U.
This dress is stunning , can’t wait to wear it next year for Christmas photos.
Tiffany B.
I wanted to love this dress. I really really did. The lace and colors are gorgeous. The bust is way too big for me. I went down a size to try and compensate for the large bust but then the dress was too tight at the waist. If you're needing some extra room up top, this dress is it.
Ivie C.
LOVED the flattering fit and feel. Great quality. I probably could have gone with a medium, and purchased a large, but I could tighten it up with my sewing machine. I'm 5'5" and about 165lbs. Customer service was great though!
Michaela T.
Super cute! I love this dress and it fits good in all the right places however it is a little loose on the shoulders and a bit booby compared to other fitted dresses I have from ivy. Would work great on bigger chested girls lol. It’s is so gorgeous though and the details are amazing
Amanda W.
Another Ivy City win for me! Love the dress so much. The fit is spot on and color is gorgeous. I'm 5'4", 200 lbs and love the way this fits.
Shannon A.
Beautiful lacing throughout
Patricia A.
Black Friday sale I purchased Clara in Plum and this beautiful dress.
Coming home from celebrating New Year’s eve I wanted to take pictures with me wearing Venice dress.
Similar to sizing of Clara dress just little loose but I would rather have this than too tight for me to zip the dress up!
I am excited to wear this out!!!
BrieAnna B.
Nice neck and bodice length, arms feel a bit puffy for fitted coat but much better bodice length than some others.
alondra f.
Absolutely fell in love with this dress when I laid eyes on it! Bought it during the Black Friday sale and worth every penny! Wore it to a Columbia University Event and every single man and woman complimented my dress! Lol even while getting my certificate I was complimented for my beautiful dress!! I got a size small! Definitely want to order it in different colors!
Katelyn H.
I am absolutely obsessed with this dress! It is so gorgeous and so flattering! I hope to get it in more colors.
Kristen R.
Such a gorgeous dress!
Anne B.
I got this dress in green in a 3x. I’m 5ft 2in. I believe this runs true to size and was a good length for my height. I really wanted this dress to work. I found the dress to be very itchy and the piece at the waist on the dress I received had a defect on it. It didn’t match up where the seams meet and you could tell. It wouldn’t have bothered me so much if it wasn’t on the front of the dress. There were also a few threads on the dress but those could be snipped off. I think I just got unlucky with this dress and so I unfortunately had to return it. I will say the customer service is phenomenal and I have never had a better experience.
Mindi M.
This dress is gorgeous! I bought it for our Christmas photos and it was perfect for the occasion. The details in the lace are beautiful and the sleeves are so fun. I like that the sleeves were lined. I do think the dress runs a bit big, and if I had time before the photos I would have attempted to get one size down.
Overall, it is beautiful, comfortable and very fun to wear!
Kristin G.
Pros:
Beautiful Dress
Lots of compliments on it!
Cons:
Not the most comfortable
No give in the waist
Rafaela M.
How gorgeus!! Prettier in person! It looks fancy and expensive. True to size.
Hannah B.
This dress is gorgeous! The green is a little darker than I expected. The fit is perfect.
Krystal R.
I got a million compliments on this dress! I loved it! I will say, there isn't any stitching to protect your shoulders from the raw edge of the tulle sleeves (right at the seams where all the fabric meets) and it can be SO scratchy. So if you're sensory sensitive, something to really consider.
Michelene C.
This dress is so beautiful. The detail and the color. I just love. I recieved so many compliments. All my sisters and my niece asked me about it. My niece loved it and said if the dress came up missing she wouldn't know anything about it. It just made me feel so feminine and beautiful. Well done!!
BROOKE B.
Beautiful dress. I do wish the sleeves weren't so puffy. But I was able to tame them some with a steamer and not ruin the material. I was very careful.
Betsy H.
This is a delightful dress! purchased a 3X, I'm typically a size 22, 285 pounds 5'7". Bust is 51.5 in (38K), waist is 44in. Lenth hits me at upper calf. The waist is loose since I'm more of a 2x in the waist/underbust, but I size up for my bust. It makes it very comfy to sit in, it's not so loose that it looks sloppy since the bust fits almost perfectly. I love that the lining matches my skin tone! It would be great to see this still in various shades of nude so folks of all shades could get that mimicked skin look. My only complaint is the lace on the sleeves is a bit scratchy. I'm sensitive to certain textures, but I think I could deal with it for a few hours. If this design was to be tweaked to lengthen the liner fabric, so the lace didn't make so much skin contact, I think that would fix the issue. The liner fabric is more a cap sleeve. But this is a personal preference and doesn't affect the quality or look of the dress. It's a very fun, but classy style of dress and instantly made me feel gorgeous!
Laura M.
Absolutely gorgeous! The sleeves lay nicely and are not too poofy. The lining is nice and doesn't "stick" to your body so it has good flow and doesn't reveal bulges or problem spots. I only wish the color was a little more jewel toned and less muted! This neckline is everything. As a busty woman I've been patiently waiting for this style and am in love!
Jessica W.
Excellent quality and detailing is gorgeous. Love the v neck
Ashlyn G.
This is the perfect Christmas dress. It does run fairly small. I sized up twice to a 1X from my regular XL and it fit perfectly. My measurements are 42 in the bust 36.5 in the waist and 48 in the hip. Definitely check the size chart. However once you get the right size it is very beautiful on!
Lana R.
Love this dress Great for holidays
Summer S.
This dress is so gorgeous!!! I love the neckline, it’s so flattering. I got my true size medium and it fits like a glove. The only thing is that I wish it was to my knees. I’m only 5ft tall and it goes to the top of my ankles, I wish it went to my knees or just below. Other than that, I can’t wait to wear it for Christmas Sunday
Lana R.
The most beautiful dress
Chelsea M.
I love this dress it is so well made and so gorgeous, even more so in person. It is such a beautiful color and absolutely perfect for Christmas. The neck line is stunning and I love how the skirt hits higher since I have had 4 children and still working on the damage done by all those pregnancies. These dresses are really created with a beautiful feminine touch- I just can’t say enough good things about them.
Kylie N.
Beautiful dress! I find it ran true to size. The shoulders are a bit broad so I did take mine in. It’s perfect for the holiday season and is so cute!
Melissa C.
This dress is stunning! I am wearing a 2X. I have a larger chest and this dress fit me perfectly. I love the sweetheart neckline. It’s so flattering. Thanks for making this dress!
Cami P.
Very beautiful dress. The lace is gorgeous, the only thing that ended up disappointing me was that although the sleeves are beautiful, they just felt like they stuck very far out and made my shoulders look very bulky and large. I think this dress may be a tad too big because if I went with my measurements, I would be a large, but the medium fit better in my opinion, I like my waist to be very fitted and close, so maybe it was a personal preference because the large didn't look bad on either. I am wearing a medium, 5'5" and 165 pounds. The dress doesn't have stretch.
Maral D.
Love ❤️ love ❤️ love ❤️ this dress made my 30th birthday extra special. I’m in size 1x and fits good little tight no stretch. Also want to mention the excellent costumer service . For sure i will be ordering more ❤️.
Erica R.
Debuted this dress at a formal Thanksgiving dinner, it was perfect. I'm a big fan of this length and the neckline sold me.
Jade H.
STUNNING!!! I ordered this for my work Christmas party and I felt so confident and feminine. I was receiving compliments all night!!! The dress felt very light and had a lot of movement, so you don’t feel constricted at all. This is my 4th Ivy dress and I’m itchy to buy more.
Heather F.
Love this dress! So feminine and pretty. The lace is gorgeous and adds a fun texture. Also love that I can match with my little girl!
Maureen C.
Absolutely obsessed with this dress! It fit me perfectly and the color is gorgeous. I received so many compliments!!
Ionela D.
In love with this dress, it’s so detailed and this color is perfect for the season. I can’t wait to wear it to church on Christmas Day!
Eyerusalem
It’s a beautiful dress.
Emi
This green is AMAZING. I love it. This new neckline is everything on the Sicily style and I'm so happy I waited for the Venice!! This definitely runs TTS. The waistband is wide so it feels/zips tighter than the measurements suggest. I thought maybe I could size down because the size chart shows this dress running slightly large, but my TTS fit just right. I love how the neckline is modest but still low enough to be flattering.
Martha P.
Okay this is stunning!! Iv been waiting for this new dress with the lower necklace. It’s very modest and the lining in the sleeve I appreciate so much. This is a classic piece!
