Making the CutWomen's Standard Ruffle Dress with Flounce

I was so excited about this dress, but when it arrived, I was disappointed and had to make a few alterations. I was ready to send it back because the zipper was stuck and the clasp in the back was missing. With no other alternatives at such short notice, a few stitches here and there, a heavy steaming. I was happy. This dress is stunning! I am 5'11 and 6'2 in heels the length was perfect. Unfortunately, there was so much commotion at my event I didn't get any post-worthy photos.

I’m an inverted triangle, so finding a dress in which I can look good and feel comfortable is always a challenge.The skirt on this dress looks like a simple high-low design, but it has so much more fabric than it seems, creating a nice volume that doesn’t look bulky.Also, IT HAS POCKETS!!!The design on the top is just the right amount of sexy, my only issue was that the v-neck would “open up” a bit and show more chest than I was comfortable, but nothing a safety pin couldn’t fix.The ruffles on the back of the shoulders are nice and stiff, meaning the stay up no matter how much you move or dance.I noticed the fabric stretches a bit, it’s soft, and soooo comfortable.

I was unsure I could pull it off. It's a lot of dress when wearing it - like flamenco skirt. The material is great because its like cotton, so it doesn't need to really be ironed to look good. I wore this to a friend's wedding and have seriously never been more popular with both my friends and total strangers. several people told me they noticed my dress from afar when everyone went up for communion and it was the talk of the town..... its feels avante-garde at first trying on, but trust me it's the perfect mix of BOLD and TIMELESS. I ended up wearing it again to a wedding a few weeks later. both were fancy, one being an art-deco hotel wedding in cold weather and the other at a vineyard. also............ IT HAS POCKETS. YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. BIG POCKETS THAT DON'T SHOW. I had my clutch in one pocket and giant phone in the other while hitting the dance floor and you couldn't even tell. I can't wait to find a reason to wear it again and honestly might buy it in pink also.

Dress is made for small breast. The back is out so no bra. I love the color and fit. Unfortunately it arrived very very wrinkled.

I wore this to an event and got so many compliments! Such a fun and unique dress!Heads up, the dress is HUGE and heavy because there’s so much fabric. But it’s really well made and feels so nice and so comfortable. It came pretty smashed, so you’ll need to allow time to get it pressed at the dry cleaner.

Loved the hot pink color, the flutter sleeve, and high low skirt!

Love it, very good quality, I could have easily ordered a smaller size, but the one I did was also great. Very flattering on every body type (I'm plus size). Highly recommended.

Material: I love sateen and sew all of my casual garments out of it, because it is a quality shirting cotton that holds its shape. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this dress is made out of sateen! It is a shirt suiting material that is rigid enough to hold the cool shoulder shape without starch and ironing, but soft enough to flow when you twirl. If you are not savvy on fabrics, imagine a men's button-up shirt material.Design: This is a double full circle skirt, reminiscent of the kind you see in traditional South American cumbia dress. I love twirling in it, and the shoulders look like angel arches in silhouette. It is gorgeous happy dress, and I cannot wait to wear it out. Garden parties, spring daytime dates, Easter picnics, these would all be great places to wear it.Fit: Firstly, this dress is true to tailored sizing, not vanity sizing so TAKE YOUR MEASUREMENTS and order accordingly. A lot of brands in the USA try to make a size 14 feel like a regular "large," but in reality it is an XL according to true sizing.Value: Overall I am very happy and love this dress. I do think that $200 in general is just out of reach for the average person, HOWEVER, this dress uses every bit of that cost in the labor to make something like this. The ruffles look amazing, the amount of material you get in this double-full skirt was much more than I expected. The ruffles are double-faced, so that alone in material eats up a lot of the cost of that price-point. The pricing is more than fair for the quality you get. Remember that this is a quality piece, not fast-fashion.Final thoughts: This dress is lovely, and I am a happy buyer. I had no idea who Sienna was before Making the Cut, and now I am hooked. Thank you, Sienna, for making a normal girl like me feel beautiful.

Como dicen algunas reseñas, sí es pesado, pero no se siente al traerlo puesto. Es hermoso, luce mucho. Tuve que arreglar los lados de las costillas porque siempre me quedan anchos de ahí.

L’ho comprato per un aperitivo con dress code white . E’ bellissimo , molto scenografici solo un po’ pesante ma una volta indossato sta benissimo

El vestido está irreal lo bonito y bien hecho que está! La talla es exacta si sigues la tabla de medidas. También la calidad de tela es excepcional.10/10 para este vestido

L'abito rispecchia lo stile mostrato in foto e se preso in promozione ha anche un ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo ma è pesantissimo. Realmente pesa più di 4 kg portarlo addosso era impossibile mi aspettavo fosse di un tessuto di cotone leggero e scivolato invece è un tessuto molto pesante quasi una felpa rigida. Se posso consigliare non adatto alla stagione estiva ma piuttosto ad un evento indoor .

I love this dress so much! It's beautiful!!
