4X and I’m in love
I was skeptical to buy from skims bc I can’t say I’ve seen many bodies like mine wearing their brand. Didn’t even know they were as size inclusive as they were (which can we get a moment for not having to go to a “plus size” section and almost everything comes in a plus size option with actual size accuracy? I mean that in itself is amazing to have.) but I bought the dress. I’m normally a 3x, 5,9 with longer legs a smallish waist and large bust. I do have a big apron B shaped belly that I was worried this dress would exaggerate. It did not. I did wear their maternity shapewear underneath but without it I only noticed it was slightly more clingy to those areas. The dress is a great material, i did not feel like it clung and held right to my belly like other bodycons. ...

The dress is a great material, i did not feel like it clung and held right to my belly like other bodycons. I also need to add I’m 34 weeks pregnant, it was actually very flattering around that area and showed off my pregnancy in a flattering way. I’m very picky with clothing which is why I’m writing such a lengthy review. While I am curvy I am not the typical large hips, small waist, medium bust curvy. I have medium hips and a smaller waist and a larger bust and huge thighs. I feel this dress actually accentuates my curves. It’s incredibly stretchy and I sized up a bit for the baby bump.I would definitely recommend this dress. If you’ve been nervous or unsure, I think this is a fair bet you’ll love it. I do plan to buy it again in another color.... Show more

AMAZING!
Compliments !!!!This dress is absolutely amazing! I wore it to my husband‘s company Christmas party!!! I got unbelievable compliments . The fabric is to die for! It is the same as the tons of leisurewear, bras and underwear I have purchased. I recently lost 70LBs, but this dress would look great on any figure!!! I went down one size from my new size because I read that other customers did the same thing because it runs a little larger! I was also thrilled because I ordered it on a Monday, and they said I would not get it in time. I live in Philadelphia and found out we have a Nordstrom Rack here and they had the dress. I kept in contact with SKIMS customer service and explained this to them, but I would just give the dress I ordered to my best friend for Christmas. ...

Low and behold , SKIMS excellent customer service got me the dress early and called Nordstrom who told me SKIMS already cancelled the order and got me a refund !!! Awesome customer service! I am such a loyal fan of your merchandise and wonderful customer service! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Warmest Regards, Kelley Lang Russell... Show more

Great on IG, not IRL
Just like you, I couldn't wait to look bangin' in this dress. It is so pretty, and I've been seeing it allll over social media. But I think there's a reason it's all over social, yet you never see it on anyone in real life. It's not nearly as flattering as you'd think (or as you'd think you would look). When I returned it, there was a girl in front of me AND a girl behind me also returning a SKIMS dress, probably for the same reasons.Try the dress on and you'll see. Again, it's beautiful on Insta and TikTok. But real life doesn't have the filters.Oh, and the walking. This dress forces you to shuffle. When I finally slipped it off, it was like, "thank god, my legs are FREEE!"... Show more

I LOVE SKIMS
I am a SKIMS JUNKIE. It doesn’t matter how you feel about Kim, I personally love her, the products are solid. I have purchased all of the Soft Lounge Slip Dresses, Soft Lounge Long Sleeve Dresses, several short Onesies, the Boyfriend Boxer and T-Shirt Collection, and the Henley Sleep Dresses; all items are FANTASTIC. They wash well and I feel so sexy when wearing them. I just purchased the Soft Lounge Boxers and Long Sleeve Shirts, excited for tge shenanigans I might find myself getting into even I wear them. I’m an older woman and SKIMS lounge wear helps me find my sexy. Thank you Kim and team!... Show more

I TOO FEEL LIKE A F****** QUEEN IN THIS DRESS!!!!!!!
Never in my life have I felt as sexy as when I wear this dress!!!! I am so tempted to buy the same colour again just so that I have a change for when I need to wash this! The quality is amazing and it is suuuper soft! I freaking LOVE IT!!! For reference I am 167/168 cm tall, 86 cm bust, 66/67 cm waist and 97 cm hips: I got an XS and fits PERFECTLY! According to the size chart I was kind of in between XS and S (at least my waist was) but following the many reviews I read I decided to go down a size and it is really perfect! And no, the black one is not transparent (I was afraid it would be in the hips area, where it stretches the most but it is not). I wear it with black or neutral underwear (the fits everybody scoop bralette works well but my normal balconette bras ... MoreNever in my life have I felt as sexy as when I wear this dress!!!!

I wear it with black or neutral underwear (the fits everybody scoop bralette works well but my normal balconette bras work just as well and for bottoms I use the no-show kind of underwear ) and it does not show through. It arrives to my ankles (thought it obviously gets scrunched up when walking, like all such dresses do).PLEEEEASE bring back the dark brown, red and army green!!!! PLEEEASE! I would sooo buy them if they come back!!!... Show more

Just buy it!
I’ve always been skeptical about SKIMS, I saw tons of tik toks advertising it and always thought it was just the sales team driving them. I bought this for a trip to Vegas since it is casual yet sultry, and let me just say, the tik toks aren’t lying! I seriously haven’t gotten a “little black dress” that fits me in the way this dress does. It hugs your curves in all the right places, and this is the first time I feel confident in a dress with my tummy sticking out a bit. I initially bought a core control thong to go with this, but honestly looks good on its own. Definitely recommend it. Also, the material is comfortable and super light, as well as stretchy. I wanted some wiggle room, but can definitely see myself sizing down for a more snatched and tight fit.Just ...

Love it
Definitely buy this dresss with plans on wearing it a lot because I got it and have had it for months now and I’ve only wore it once .The material is amazing.I’m 5’5 and it covers my ankles and lands on my feet .It is pretty long so keep that in mind if you end up choosing to wear it somewhere other than your house .Very comfortable and breathable .My only problem is the shoulder area of the arms is a bit big but I read the reviews and knew this prior to buying so I’m not shocked .It hugs the body nicely .Another big concern was it being see-through ( I got black or onyx I think that’s the name ) . It wasn’t see-through well if your wearing hot pink under and for the big boob girls it shows bra lines a little bit and the low cut is kind of low and hiding a ...

Overhyped
Nice quality dress, however, did not meet my expectations considering the price. The neckline is SO open, like nipples almost showing open, and overall poorly sewn (I’m not one to hide my neckline). I had to use double sided tape and place it all around the chest opening to keep everything in place. There is this weird hump on the shoulders that looks like the dress was hanging on a hanger (it wasn’t). I also think they should offer different lengths, lm 5’7 and would’ve liked another inch or two, I can’t imagine how someone taller would feel. Overall the texture is nice and it’s very comfortable, but I expect a better fit and slightly thicker material for something at this price point.... Show more

Soft, cuddly, and sexy all in one
I love the soft lounge line, and this is definitely one of my favorites. Since I'm in Texas, the temperature window at which I could wear this dress has already passed, but I still love it. As a big girl, it's rare for a clingy dress to be able to make me feel sexy, but this one does it. I even feel comfortable wearing it without a bra at home, which is extremely rare for me since I have a large chest. All around must-have item.For other large ladies out there, I will say that I wear a dress size of 28, which obviously isn't carried by this website. But I still love the way this fits. Because of its clinginess, I know that even if I were a size 22, it would still fit beautifully.... Show more

Sooooooo Comfy
I was super unsure of which size to get as the size chart says I should be about a L (I'm 5'5 and 165) but decided to go with a medium to make sure it fit snug as I didn't want it to be loose at all. I'm glad I went with a medium it fits perfect. If you're unsure I suggest sizing down because I easily could've even fit an S it's suuuuper stretchy. Beware it is a little see through. I only wear it with skin tone underwear and any panty lines will definitely show in this dress so I suggest a seamless thong. The dress is very comfortable and I wear it to work and sleep in it, if I could never take it off I would. The length is great and I rarely trip over it, my biggest issue is that it's slightly see through and while wearing it I noticed some of the seam strings were ...

The length is great and I rarely trip over it, my biggest issue is that it's slightly see through and while wearing it I noticed some of the seam strings were coming loose, and for a 160$ dress I would hope it wouldn't be falling apart during my first wear, so that was really disappointing but noting a quick ship couldn't fix. Also it's a lot thinner than I expected! I figured such a full coverage dress would be a little warm but I was freezing in my office. Anyways I love the dress and will definitely buy one in another cut just beware it's thin and some of the seams are tricky.... Show more
