Unfortunately I have to agree with the other poor reviews but my dissatisfaction also extends to a general dissatisfaction with ModCloth's customer service too. I ordered this dress, but stupidly only read the reviews after because it looked so cute. However, I realized that at 5'10 there is no way this dress is going to be a dress on me. So I contacted ModCloth to halt the order. No one got back to me until the next day when they said they couldn't stop the order at this point. So...they sent it out, but it took over two weeks to get to me, a long time for not being able to stop the order. When I finally got the dress. Sure enough, way too short and really bad quality. The zipper is terrible, as it catches and feels like it is going to break very soon. The elastic in belt is already looking stretched. The dress is thin and the design...meh. I really think that this dress is overpriced for what it is. In fact, if you live in a cosmopolitan city, I think you can find way better products at your hip Chinatown stores (since everything I've bought from ModCloth is made there anyway), for way less money than what you are getting from ModCloth. Since I basically paid shipping and now will have to pay return shipping to try on a dress I knew wasn't going to fit me, and the customer service was lacking, I think I'm done with this company.
We're sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction! We'd be happy to help you process a return. I'm sending you an email with more information.
Yes, this dress is short on taller girls. I am 5'9" and it's more of a mini dress. It hits about mid-thigh. But, I think it's adorable and one of the cutest dresses I've gotten in a while. I'm seriously considering buying a second one just so I have a backup in case something happens to the first one!
Oh and to add on to the previous review, like stated I'm 5'6" 145lbs 36C and I got a Large-- medium definitely wouldn't have worked, which is what I would normally wear. Unfortunately I would say you couldn't be much bigger than me (maybe 15lbs?) and fit comfortably in this dress-- it does run small.
