Customer Reviews Norma Kamali Sleeveless Shirred Waist Dress

I bought this for my wife for a Valentine's gift. She loves it. She normally wears either an XS or Sm (115 lbs, 5'6") This has a snug fit and she preferred the Sm although either would work. I thought it looked great on her. Looking forward to going out with her wearing it.

I absolutely love this dress! It's length and higher neckline make it classy, with a shape flattering curve at the waist and hips. No-show pantie are a must - it's quite fitted through the behind! I felt both classy and sexy wearing this dress.

Another excellent Kamalikulture dress. Sized accurately, machine washable, comfortable for office or to dress up at night.

This dress is absolutely phenomenal for the price. I am 5'2" and have a 33" bust and 25" waist. I ordered a small in the eggplant color and it fits very comfortably. It runs a little long on me due to my height and reaches down to the bottom of my knees, but it doesn't look out of place at all and the shape of the skirt makes it work fine. All the ruches make this dress hug every curve and the back cinching ends just at the top of your butt which makes the dress lay beautifully in the back. The fabric is a little on the thinner side, but it's heavy enough that I would never be concerned about it being see-through. You do have to wear some sort of seamless underwear, but I didn't have a problem with the lace or edges of my bra showing up under the fabric except for the straps on my back which is to be expected. This dress looks great with a jacket and some heels. Great purchase!

This dress is pretty comfortable, very pretty and more than affordable. I usually wear a small but followed other reviews and ordered a large in this dress. It fits a tiny bit loosely but I will keep it!

This dress is awesome! I'm 5'6", 160 lbs and wear ddd bra size. It's hard for me to find a dress that fits both my upper body and lower since I'm pretty top heavy. I feel like a either a hooker or an old granny in most styles. This dress is sexy and modest at the same time. I'm able to wear one of my favorite bras with it so I feel comfortable and the shirred sides and back help camouflage a little tummy pooch. The fabric feels nice and the color is great, a nice deep rich blue. I ordered both the L and XL, and kept the large, the XL was just a bit too long for my body. I recommend this dress to anyone!

Great red color (more blue red than orange red). I ordered the small (usually wear a 4 or 6) It fit perfectly. Fitted and sexy. Could be dangerous...be careful where/with whom you choose to wear it! ;) Great value!

I love this dress and I love that Zappos' free shipping allows you to be able to figure out your size without risking money. I ordered a small and the next day free shipping was such a treat -- I don't know of any other company that offers that! The small was a little too tight and a little too short for my taste, so I ordered a medium which also came next day. Not knowing if the medium would be too large, I really appreciated the chance to have them both at the same time to compare them. The medium was perfect so I returned the small (for free). Zappos takes all the risk out of buying clothes on-line! About the dress: very thin material and no lining, but with the right undergarment can look just like the model. Love the hour glass shape and length just below the knee. Very elegant and great neckline for jewelery. Beautiful, elegant design! This will be my Chinese New Year celebration dress and my Valentines dinner dress this year!

I'm a curvy size 16, 5'6". tried several Kamalikulture dresses. This was the best for flattering fit & style, though as others have mentioned it will definitely require Spanx. Purchased this to go under a long cardigan or jacket of some kind. Should work nicely. Love it!

This is my "go to" LBD. It is flattering, comfortable and can be dressed up or down, The fabric is lightweight but the gathered sides don't let bumps and bulges show (and with Spanx, you will be flawless). I'm 5'6" and a healthy 125lbs.

Cute! Form fitting, but still very flattering. The shirred waist is a nice detail. I liked the pattern better in hand than expected. Due to clingy fabric and style I am uncertain if this could be made work appropriate with a longish cardigan or other cover up.

This dress is a knock-out! Fits like a glove and is shirred to give a very slim-waisted look. It runs a little small, but not much. I got the Small and I usually am a size 2. It is very comfortable as well. I am a little over 5 ft 4 in and it just skims the knee. Excellent little summer evening dress. Paired with strappy red sandals and a red clutch and you have a striking look. Nice enough for most summer weddings.

I love this dress! The fit is wonderful and the dress is beyond comfortable. This is perfect for late spring, early summer days. I wear it sometimes with a thin cardigan that is the same blue. Sometimes I wear it with a well-cut, short dark navy blue blazer. Sometimes I wear it with a dark blue wrap belt. All KAMALIKULTURE dresses are superbly made, beautifully designed, versatile, comfortable, very flattering, and long lasting. This is a breeze to wash on gentle cycle (inside out) and hang to dry. Norma Kamili deserves kudos from all of us who love classy design and cannot purchased high end designer clothes. I am very grateful and have a number of dresses all of which are classic and will be worn for a very long time.

This dress is amazing! LOVE it! I may buy another because I know I'm going to kick myself a year from now if I don't.

I love this dress and so does my husband! I am 5'6" and about 150lbs and I got the large. It fits perfectly for me--it's still fairly clingy, but not skin tight and the material is extremely comfortable. Yes, it is thin material, but I got the black and I can't see anything through it.

This dress is just perfect! I bought it for a graduation, and ended up no using it, but will keep it anyway because it fits so well. I think it runs a little small. I am a size 4, and based on other reviews, got a Medium. (Small may have worked, given the style of the dress) It is very slimming and does not cling. The pattern is nice for a small person too.

Beautiful. The dress is perfect for a wedding or cocktail party. It is sexy and form fitting. For the price, I am extremely happy with purchase.

This dress is absolutely gorgeous! It fits me perfectly. I am 5'2'' and 107lb and I ordered the XS. I am so happy with my purchase!

This dress looks amazing on, and the great thing about it is that you can wear it casually with flats or dress it up. It's very flattering and the fit is true to size.

I was ordering a few dress on trial for an event. This dress was not dressy enough for what I was looking for, but I kept it because I am a pear shaped woman with cellulite in the back end. I thought I would have to wear spanks with this dress. Nope, the pattern of the fabric hides everything and it hugs all the right parts. I love it and good for traveling, it can go in a ball and shake out to wear.

When my husband tells me how sexy I look in something, I know it's a keeper. He couldn't stop talking about me in the dress. My body type is curvy / athletic. I have a big butt and thick, muscular thighs so I knew I would need to size up to make sure the dress was going to fit me around those areas. I am 5'7 155lbs and I ordered a Large. I could absolutely fit into a medium because the large is a little roomy but I can wear regular underwear and bra without the lines showing though.

This was a wonderful dress. It makes your body look great but it requires undergarments such as Spanx if you are a little fluffy. I am 5 foot 4 210 pounds and wore this to a high school reunion. The print hides lines from panties or bra very well. I got Many Many compliments. With the help of my Spanx I looked awesome. I am a curvy girl with hips and thighs and a booty but have a tiny waist. This dress showed off that while hiding my problem tummy. It can be classy and trendy at the same time. I went to my 20 year HS reunion then on to clubbing afterward. I wore it with a short black shrug of similar materials and had some bright yellow accessories for pop. With the shrug I was set for our dinner event and catching up with classmates. Once that came off, ready for a night of clubbing. Even hit on by some 20 somethings LOL.

Love this dress, wish I could take it off the website so no one else could have it. I am not an hourglass shape I actually am more of an apple. But this dress is so form fitting and does wonders for my body. It even makes my chest look a little better. I am 36DD. Better than expected!
