"I originally purchased a small and was unable to zip it and it was very short. I'm usually a small in Forest Ink but a 34DD so I'm sure my bust was the issue. I exchanged it for a medium and it fits perfectly. It's still short but so cute with the bloomers under it. I'm 5'3 141 lbs."
"I am in love with this dress however it does run smaller than expected I always wear an XL with your products and this time it didn’t fit :( I ripped the tag off early and can’t return it now which makes me very sad because the dress is perfect, and the material great. I love this company"
"I had a hard time justifying this price point, but I decided to pull the trigger. I followed the size chart, and my measurements barely fit within the S measurement range, but I figured I’d rather it be too tight than too loose. When it arrived, it was too large in the midsection and bust area, and isn’t adjustable. The bust area has so much extra fabric, it pools near the armpit and makes it appear like I have strange pockets of fat, and I can’t seem to smooth the extra fabric down. The length of the dress is very short, and while I would be comfortable wearing it (I’m 5’4”), on a taller or curvier person, it would have your entire backside exposed. The zipper feels extremely cheap, does not zip smoothly, and had stray strings fraying around it. The dress just isn’t flattering nor does it live up to the price point. I like the idea of having deep pockets, but when I can’t wear it because I look ridiculous, I rather would have just bought a $30 dress without pockets. Here are my measurements, if you’re similarly sized and still decide to purchase this dress, try an XS and not S: Bust: 35in Waist: 27in Hips: 36. 5in Height: 5’4”"
"Perfect dress, the fabric is luxurious and it has pockets for your drinks. ð I wear it with the bloomers under."
"The dress is super cute, and the fabric is comfortable. I did have to size up from my usual size to accommodate for the lack of stretch with this fabric. For the price, I am really disappointed with the zipper, it does not zip smoothly at all, I ultimately ended up paying more to have it fixed by a tailor."
"Looks great and is super comfy. I’m 5’7 and 155lbs, C-D cup size. Ordered a medium. However I’d have to wear bloomers underneath to avoid exposing myself in any way. It’s super super short in the rear end department. The zipper is difficult to work with and doesn’t function smoothly, and the top part of the zipper doesn’t come undone. This makes pulling it on and off difficult without audibly stretching the seams. However it’s adorable and is very flattering, comfy and soft. I’d say it feels to be great quality , and the adjustable bust is nice. I wish the top of the zipper hooked instead of being a strip of solid fabric. Overall happy with it tho as it’s very flattering."
"I have been collecting most of Forst inks clothing and I love every item I recieve but unfortunately this was the first item I recieved that was too small unfortunately and I had already threw away the packaging expecting it to fit perfect since I always get the XL in everything. Also I'm 5'11 so its definitely too short on me to wear out so if I were to lose enough weight to wear it I would definitely have to wear bloomers under because it currently shows half of my butter. Other than that it is gorgeous and great quality I would just size up."
"The dress material is so high quality and durable. It is a bit heavy but it seems it'll last a long time and won't damage easily! Super cute fit too. I will say, not super supportive without a bra if you are on smaller bust size. I just wear bra with it. Its a perfect length too. Not too short."
"Cute - Sexy - Simple What more do you want? It's perfect. AND HAS DEEP POCKETS. You can dress it up, you can wear it as is. 100% will be buying the longer version, as well. The material is like silk on your skin. The bust and straps are easily adjustable, the side zipper was smooth, and the dress will snatch your waist in all the best ways. I've been looking for a shorter dress for summer time and I found the perfect one!"
"Love it!!! The pockets fit my vape and my phone well enough for me! I can wear this without a bra and it looks amazing. The material has just the right amount of stretch. It looks SO good on."
