OH BOY!
In the interest of full disclosure... I'm 5'5"/237 and probably shouldn't be buying ANY clothes until the Wegovy kicks in for real. But, just as a test, because these things never work out when ya got curves (No matter my size, my waist to-bum differential is... significant), and I definitely prefer a skim fit over a sausage casing no matter my weight. I ordered the XXL in Brown, first(😉), because Brown (especially Black Coffee Brown, which this, unfortunately, is not 😪, - though it's still gorgeous) is VERY hard to find. I felt an extremely unusual thing when I pulled the dress from the bag: POSITIVITY. And, guess what? I quickly put it on and was SO impressed. It was perfect! I still can't believe I'm not nursing disappointment again.Bearing in mind the size I got (XXL), and MY stats (5'5"/currently 237, but working on that).....* This dress is a semi-clingy skim-fit (Neither tight, nor loose), with great stretch. Very forgiving. Very flattering, considering.* It is a fine ribbed-knit MATTE weave. It has none of that weird unnatural glossy sheen you see in the weave of so many of these column style dresses,* Nice texture, feels soft.*The fiber label reads 70% Viscose and 30% Chinlon (an internet search states that ChinLon stands for CHINese NyLON, described as a finer, smoother fiber that's more durable and resiliant than nylon/poly).* Care instructions read: "Machine wash Cold, Gentle. Wash separately. Do not bleach. Tumble dry LOW, remove promptly. Iron LOW. DO NOT USE FABRIC SOFTENER. DO NOT DRY CLEAN."* Because I have no idea if this fiber will pill I will wash the dress inside-out, in a large, fine mesh bag. I will use a color guard detergent, though maybe unnecessary. Nonetheless, I don't take any chances with colors and fading, and that stuff works! I strongly suspect if I mess up this dress (THESE dressES... Stay tuned😉), I'll never find another style which pleases me as well.Neither the sleeve cuffs, at the wrists, nor the hem are serged or sewn, but are self-knit finished. So, if any of the lengths are too long for you I'm not sure IF they can be altered easily (without unraveling, etc.) or at all. I have slightly long-ish arms and the cuffs hit about 2" too long on me. I might look into finding a top-tier tailor to see if that can be adjusted - but will likely simply turn them up at the wrist, since that looks perfectly fine. I am happy with the hem length, for now, since the hem on me hits just below the knee. The really good news is that, if you're thinking you may want or need to take in the dress at the sides it DOES have side seams, which should make doing so a little easier, though you would still likely need a pro or the skill level of one (unravelling, again) to do it without causing irreperable damage.I have tried enough columnar turtleneck sweater dresses through the years to know they rarely fit right or look anything like the picture (and these dresses are always shown on very thin, not curvy, women) so I wasn't expecting anything akin to satisfaction. Honestly, I couldn't be happier to see, finally, someone got the fit of a classy turtleneck column sweater dress right - and at a reasonable price point. This is the only one I've been VERY happy with. Obviously, I immediately ordered the deeper shade of heather gray, the black, and the Camel, because I'm all about The (neutral) Capsule Wardrobe.These dresses are fast selling out so, hopefully, Amazon will make sure they don't disappear. If your interest is piqued, I REALLY wouldn't hesitate. It's just dumb luck that I ordered the brown yesterday, got it today, loved it, and was able to immediately order three more colors before they ran out. But nothing's a done deal until you have it in your hands so 🤞

Beautiful dress
I'm really happy with this dress; it's exactly what I wanted for some "Barbie" moments. It's figure hugging, though I recommend a contrasting belt, and warm and cozy. Everything I wanted. The length is great. The weight is nice and it's good for cooler weather.

Nice simple black sweater dress
Bought this dress, unfortunately, for my mom’s funeral. Since it’s cold outside I needed a warmer material that I could wear inside & outside. This material worked for that. I wore it with a nice thick multicolored pink scarf. My mom liked pink. The style is casual but elegant. It’s a midi length. The stretch of the fabric is good. The turtleneck was a bit snug (I don’t like any pressure on my neck), so I stretched it to the point of breaking a couple of threads. It fit better after that. I wore a stretchy belt with the dress to give it a visual stopping place as the dress is long and straight & mostly fitted. It would look good on a curvy figure too. It’s a comfortable dress. I added short boots & leg warmers. I’m glad I bought it. I didn’t have to think about the dress, meaning no issues with it. I would recommend it.

Ultimate comfort and vibrant color’s
I just received my dress and it’s stunning with the mixture of colors. I’m hesitant to buy form fitting style dresses without trying them on (I’m old school) I bought a Large I’m 5’10 and 135 lb’s athletic build, small bust size 34B, hips 36. It’s a soft sweater, the material is tightly woven and has a nice stretch to it. The transition of colors is very flattering . The length comes to my mid shin my legs are longer than my torso so it’s perfect and that’s hard to find. The material is a lighter weight than some of my other dresses perfect for 3 seasons out of four. I also tried it on with a bra that boosts you up a cup size and it accentuates all your curves. I’ve already placed an order for 2 more. Excellent quality and very flattering.

Perfect fit except… THE NECK
This dress is beautiful and fits true to size. I’m 5’2 158 and ordered a large. It hits below the knee which is what I wanted. Material feels quality, very stretchy and flattering. HOWEVER the neck is SO SNUG. Like I would feel so claustrophobic wearing it, especially if I get even the tiniest bit warm. I don’t think I have a particularly thick neck?? I’ll be returning bc I just can’t handle the tight turtle neck.

Beautiful, Great Quality & Well-Fitting!! Size as expected (XL US 16-18)!
Beautiful, Great Quality & Well-Fitting!! Size as expected (XL US 16-18)!I cannot gush enough about these dresses. I bought one in nearly every color. Thick enough to wear with just a winter jacket or coat, thin enough that you won't overheat in the office. I love the ribbed style, the neck, and everything about it, as well as ALL those color choices!!!My wardrobe has been strictly sweater dresses since 2015. It's like my uniform - Sweater Dress, coordinated colored or black tights, and calf knee high high heeled black, brown, or gray boots.The ones I'd purchased previously weren't big enough for me, as they were a smaller XL, some L, from before I gained weight.I'm 46 y/o, 5'4, and 235, and because I had gastric bypass surgery, my body doesn't carry those lbs as nicely as someone who would have tight skin. My belly, arms, behind, and thighs sag.This dress is thick enough to hide ALL of that, and you'd never know!The sizing is perfect at XL for me (U.S.). I wear a 16-18, and the dress is fit perfectly, where it's not too tight, so it doesn't show my flaws.I love it, and I bought the dress in almost every color! It's a very low price for such a quality dress!!!
