"As they did not have my size (L/XL) I ordered the PLUS and it was very, very big (I am a 10/12), but I had it take in on the straps and on the sides a bit.....it looked great!!

I did NOT wear the hat, paired it with the wavy wig from this website and used the necklace (which was quite nice), gloves and a boa.....it looked great and I received many compliments at the party. This was a great purchase!

Title: Got lots of compliments! Date: October 30, 2009
"I wish I'd waited until it was on sale, but nevertheless it was a smash at Halloween. I got lots of compliments on how authentic it looked. I chose not to wear the hat (it had a weird fold in it) and instead paired it with a flower over my ear. I'm typically a size 12 and this fit a little big. The chest area was definitely a little large for me and I had to take it in and pin it. But other than that, the costume fit really well and looked good. Definitely as it appears in the image. Also, I live in Canada and shipping was effortless! All the customs fees are taken care of in checking out and the package arrived within 3 days as promised."

Title: more than expected Date: October 18, 2008
"I was pleasantly surprised by this dress. Much better looking in person than I expected. The hat is very cute. And fits very well. I have very thick, curly hair so finding hats that fit can be a problem. I am excited for halloween even more so now that I received the dress (a few days earlier than listed, btw).

Overall, great costume, and accessories especiallly for the price.

Title: Very Cute! Date: October 14, 2008
"This was a very cute costume. The quality was good for the price. Absolutely loved the hat. I wish the model was plus sized to show how the costume would look on a plus sized woman. The costume fit ok (I'm a size 18), but was shorter than I expected."

Title: Gatsby Dress Date: July 12, 2008
"This was a fun costume but I was disappointed by the quality. The fabric was poor quality and won't hold up to many repeated wears. But it was a success for the 1920's themed party I attended. Next time I'll look to buy a costume of higher quality."

Title: Worth the money Date: February 27, 2008
"I am so thrilled with this purchase. It's a little large on me (I am between a 14-16; larger on top than bottom, a typical apple shape) but I plan on making an adjustment and tucking it in at the sides. After reading that it ran small in regular sizing, I went with the plus size. I might could have gotten away with a L or XL. It really is nice for the price. Very showy and glamourous without going overboard and into tacky. I don't think the hat is too big... It would look good IF I liked hats! It seems like it will be a very comfortable costume and will hold up to more that one wearing."

Title: Good buy! Date: December 20, 2007
"I bought the Plus size dress because my true dress size is 16. The inside of the dress is a little too big, but it is simple to alter the straps and the sides to make it fit better. The mesh on the outside is meant to be bigger because of the nature of the dress, so it is perfect. The hat is a little too big, but again, it was the nature of the style- so it will work. I was impressed by the necklace- very pretty. This dress will fit anyone with a bit larger of a top section because of the design and it stretches. This was a good buy."

Title: Odd sized, but fun Date: October 18, 2007
"I ordered both the regular adult and the plus size. If you wear a 10 or a 12, order the plus! The regular size runs small thru the hips. Otherwise, very cute costume, the hat is adorable."
