Bardot

Australian designer Carol Skoufis wanted to create glamorous styles with a wink toward sexy. We think she nailed it when she launched Bardot in 1996. Whether it's fitted or flowy, flirty or sophisticated, Bardot clothing recalls a distinctly Down Under sensibility, fine-tuning the latest trends for sun-drenched days and sultry nights.

Well made and sophisticated
Beautiful structured dress with high quality lace and design is very different, the back is beautiful and sexy. I have very narrow hips and this was snug in the hips, but fits well. The dress does ride up a bit because of this, the lining is thin fabric. I usually wear 00 in dresses and this fit perfectly. I’m 5 foot 8 inches and 117 pounds. You can’t really wear a bra with this and I’m very flat chested, so I’m going to have light pads sewn in which will work great because the dress is very structured.

Not what I expected
I usually don’t write reviews on items but I will be returning this dress. The quality was horrible and felt like an old lace table cloth that you would find at your grandma house. The lace portion of the dress is very long but the slip is too short.

Beautiful dress, horrible fit
I wish this dress worked for me! The fabric is beautiful, but the fit was terrible. I am 5'5, 127 lbs and purchased the medium. I'm usually in between a small and a medium, but sized up due to other reviews. It fit perfect in the hips and any smaller would have been too tight, but it was HUGE in the chest. Unfortunately, this will be returned.

super cute, but…
Feb 23, 2022
body type
2 star does not reflect quality - only fit. This dress is beautifully made - really gorgeous. It will fit a certain body type ONLY. If you have any curves - sorry -this is not for you. This manufacturer makes dresses for a specific body type - athletic and linear. There is no give in the fabric. If this is for you - you may want to size up one size. Colors and styles are just beautiful.

Cute dress
Nice dress, maybe not the best quality and craftsmanship but good enough. I just wish the bottom park wasn't ruched but mire of an A line shape.
