Title: So pretty!
Review: This is such a beautiful lace overlay dress. The lace is a lot stronger than I anticipated, which is really nice- this is the type of piece I hand wash anyway, but if you’re unable to hand wash, maybe a lingerie bag or something will help? I don’t like to see lace break down so I typically will hand wash it. I love the slightly antiqued tone of the lace. It gives it just enough to add to the overall look and feel.So, if you like to put a lot of different pieces together, this is definitely a good overlay dress for you. I think it’s absolutely lovely. The neckline isn’t over the top, but is interesting enough without fighting for attention with the lace. The tattered looking hem adds a lot to the dress and the corset- oh, the corset! It’s so pretty. Just adds a lot to the overall look and feel.I got this for my oldest daughter who is definitely a “whimsical clothing” person. She has been layering it over longer and shorter dresses, leggings and tops, etc. Of course, you could always just wear it as a dress, but unless you’re comfortable with a bit of skin showing, I would find something to go underneath.My daughter pairs this dress with boots, or a pair of platforms mostly. It really is such a versatile dress that has a lot of range and it can really set off a look. She loves it and so do I! Well, I got it for her, I am probably gonna steal it from her from time to time, and I may end up just grabbing one of my own.The corset in the back is so orettty!

Title: Beautiful Lace Dress, but Delicate Fabric
Review: This Dearly Departed Lace Dress is absolutely gorgeous and fits really well! The lace design is elegant and detailed, making it perfect for a gothic or vintage-inspired look. I love that it features an adjustable corset back, which allows for a more customized fit. The dress looks stunning when worn, and I’m hoping it will pair nicely with a shapewear slip I have on order to enhance the overall silhouette.However, the material is a bit thin, and you definitely need to be extra careful when putting it on and taking it off. The fabric is delicate, and I could see how it might be easy to accidentally tear or damage if not handled properly. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it would have been nice if the material was just a little more durable. That said, once it’s on, it feels comfortable and flattering.This dress is beautiful and well-designed, but it requires gentle handling due to the fabric’s delicate nature. The corset back is a great feature, and it does fit well, making it a worthwhile purchase if you’re looking for a lace dress with an elegant, romantic look. I’d still recommend it, just with the caution to handle it carefully to avoid any mishaps.

Title: Beautifully Delicate Less Dress
Review: This dress is gorgeous and fits perfectly. It’s another winner for Dolls Kill. I just love their clothing. This dress will be perfect for a cosplay idea I have, but I have some other layering ideas for it as well for everyday wear. I love the color of the lace; it’s a very pretty ivory. The dress itself is very well-made, and it’s made from quality materials. I love the corset design on the back of the dress. The dress just flows as you walk. I cannot really describe how stunning this dress really is in person. All I can do is recommend that you get it for yourself—you won’t be disappointed.

Title: Attractive – Unique – Well-made – Soft – Adjustable Corset
Review: This is a very unique lingerie dress, and although I’m not well-acquainted with goth fashion, found it to be lots of fun, pairing it with dark stockings and underwear for contrast. First off, I was impressed by the softness of the lace fabric, giving it an 8.0 on a scale where 0 = rough/scratchy and 10 = super soft; it feels really nice / sexy against the skin. Aside from its softness and obvious transparency, it’s very lightly stretchy, the perfect amount to hold its shape and still be comfortable. I liked that the corset portion on the back is actually functional, finding that I could pre-tighten it to approximately where I wanted it and then still be able to slip the dress on over my shoulders and remove it again without untying the corset. It’s well-made and designed; all the seams are nicely sewn/serged, with attractive details, such as the flower at the bottom of the neckline. I’m 5’9″, 160 lbs., 40-35-38, typically wearing a dress size 10-12, and the XX-Large size fits me well with extra room for adjustment with the corset-portion on the rear. Although this is a unique, attractive piece and more like lingerie than a dress, I removed a star because the $69.00 price (at the time of the review) seems high given its simplicity.

Title: Lovely quality, flattering
Review: Love this dress! For ref I am 5’5″ and about 160 in the photo, normally wear a size 10 and got XL, it fits perfectly. The lace up the back provides some adjustment and the dress itself is slightly stretchy. I wasn’t sure how to style this but with a slip and tights I think it looks really nice and I feel very confident in this. I have some back fat since I am mature and it doesn’t bring any attention to it, or to my tummy. Lace material is really nice quality, not too thin. Flows and moves really well and very comfortable to move in and sit in. Awesome lightly tea stained type color. Very goth and boho.

Title: Beautiful well sewn lace dress
Review: This is the first item I have had from this brand, and I was very impressed with the quality IRL. It is a lovely garment. The lace is soft and drapey, and the fit and cut of the dress are lovely.

Title: Absolutely stunning but poor quality
Review: Can’t get over how absolutely gorgeous this dress is. It’s so flowy and beautiful, the corset backing is divine, it fits beautifully and it’s extremely comfortableEDIT: i came back to update my review because after ONE use this dress is now full of holes. When you pull the strings to cinch the waist, it starts to rip. If you sit down, it rips. I am extremely disappointed because this dress is stunning, but a single use clothing item is definitely not what I wanted.
