Very big

This is a beautiful dress. Great material but very oversized. I’m normally a 12. I purchased the medium but could e fit a small. It had extra room under the arms. The extra fabric wasn’t an issues, as I don’t like my dresses tight but there was a lot of extra fabric! Beautiful dress though!

This dress is ridiculous, there are no words to describe. It looks nothing like the picture, I’m so mad at myself for getting this on final sale. It looks nothing like the picture!!

This picture is a complete misrepresentation of how it actually fits. It’s a big mumu. It doesn’t enhance anything. It’s like wearing a big balloon. Since I can’t return it, I’ll have it altered so it’s wearable. Honestly, horrible dress.

Cute but it fits like a tent!

This is the 2nd Madewell dress I bought from Nordstrom Rack recently and I'm just as disapointed with this one. It is a super cute dress, but the fabric and the lining make it balloon out like a tent! It looks ridiculous on, so sadly I will be returning it. If it was a softer, silkier fabric, it would hang much nicer and would be a keeper.

HUGE

I wear a L, but I would need to buy an XXS to make this work. The sizing is way off.
