Ola Lurex Stripe Dress

I approached this dress with trepidation based on reviews. As a small chested woman, this dress is very slimming, fits perfectly and I love the colours and gold thread!

I left purchasing this frock until the 11th hour and I'm very pleased to have clicked the mouse and finally purchased such a gorgeous dress at a fabulous price. The colours of this dress are lovely and rich and the cotton fabric very soft to wear. The outer fabric is sheer but the dress is lined in a soft, lightweight cotton so there is no need for a slip. Unlike other reviewers, I found the armholes are just right and there is no tension across the bust line. I am 5' 5' and usually wear a size 20 in TS clothes however the size 18 fits me perfectly. I love everything about this dress and can't wait until Melbourne's summer arrives to show it off.

Lovely material, but the cut of the dress doesn’t sit right. Plenty of room from under the bust down (maybe too much), but fit around the bust is a lot smaller and tight. Inconsistent with other Virtuelle dresses of the same design. Instead of going down a size, really need to go up a size to fit your bust. So wanted to love this dress.

Another beautiful dress, but again has vast amounts of material and a bust seam that is inconsistent between sizes - size 20 seam sat higher on the bust than a size 18, cutting across the bust line. The armholes are very large therefore the size and front of my bra was visible, you would need a cardi or cami underneath. Gorgeous material and colour though, would love to see more browns, olive greens and natural colours for winter.

The colour of this dress is divine but the armholes gape and the seam across the bust is not consistent between sizes - lots of material on the lower half, very billowy.
