Scarlet DarknessRenaissance Costume Women Medieval Corset Dress Puff Sleeve Fairy Dress

So glad I found this when my other outfit fell through. It arrived quickly and the quality is so nice and looks exactly like the picture online. I got lots of compliments on this dress. The pockets and side zipper are very useful. The corset has boning that makes you feel supported and is adjustable for comfort. Overall very happy with this dress!

I was surprised by the quality of the bodice, it looks well made, has some boning for a better fit, and has deep pockets. The white slip's quality is on par with what you'd expect from a budget costume, but both pieces are very light and breathable. It's nice that they're separate, I'll definitely be mixing the bodice with other costume pieces I already have.As other reviewers mentioned, the zipper can be difficult to zip up. I found it a lot easier to loosen the laces, rotate the bodice so I could zip it up in front of me, then rotate it back and put my arms in as another reviewer suggested.I ordered a size 10 since other reviews suggested sizing up, but 8 probably would've been a better fit. I'm 5'3, 150lbs with a larger chest (F cup) and it was still a bit loose around my waist with the laces fully tightened there. The laces are super long so there is definitely wiggle room to loosen it up in the front if needed.Overall, I think this is a great value for the price. I'll definitely wear it again and I'm even considering ordering another color in a smaller size.

This is a very pretty dress. Is it as high quality as what you'd buy at the faire? No! But for the price, it's amazing! It's 2 pieces. The corset is attached to the overskirt. Then there is a white underdress. The underdress is very cheap, but you really don't see much of it, and with the corset/overskirt covering it, it's not very noticeable. The corset part is beautiful. Very well made. The material feels tapestry like and looks great on. The attached overskirt is made out of some kind of polyester. I prefer cotton, but I'm assuming that would have wrinkled quite a bit. That being said, the skirt part is just okay. But again, for the price, it's a lot nicer than I expected. I bought this on a flash sale for 39.99. I see the price now is 59.99. I still think it's a great deal. I have paid much more than that for a corset alone. Also, the colors are so pretty. I got the light blue/ lilac color. I normally go for olive greens, so I'm a bit out of my comfort zone, but I love it!!!

Right out of the package, I was impressed with the quality of the corset dress. The broadcade fabric was lovely, and it has legitimate boning in it. The skirt needed a good ironing, but that is no surprise.I didn't realize that the white portion was a separate piece (because I obviously didn't read the description closely enough). I think that makes the garments higher quality, but it contributes to making this a difficult outfit to put on. The main thing that makes this difficult to put on is the side zipper, which is small and crosses two different fabric types and tends to stick at that transition point. It is hard to get a good grip on it from the side, and then the separate under-dress has a tendancy to poof out and get in the way of the zipper as well.For me, the most efficient way to get into this was to loosen the corset, put it on around my torso (but don't put my arms in yet), and then rotate the dress to the side so that I could get at the zipper from the front. Once I was zipped in, I rotated it back into place, wiggled into the straps and tightened the corset. Once it is on, it fits perfectly, so I am glad I didn't size up, but it is a bit of a nightmare to get into.I am 5'4", 135 lbs, 32dd and usually wear a 6 or 8. Based on the size chart, my measurements are closer to an 8, so that is what I ordered and I have no complaints regarding the sizing. I appreciated that this dress isn't super long, as I am on the shorter side, and it hit me right at the ankle.

okay so first off i wanted to get the bad thing out of the way- the corset part was rlly hard to zip up, getting over the threshold of fabric vs corset was hard. onto the good stuff- the fabric was super light but very good quality, so it was very breathable and i didn’t get hot walking around near 90 degree weather for a few hours. the fit was amazing as well, it was exactly my size! it also has the appearance of being homemade, if anyone was wanting that look. the color is super bright, and i haven’t washed it yet but i hope it’ll stay!

The fit was ok once I was able to get it on. I feel like I could probably have sized up for an easier time getting the black top piece on and off. I had to loosen the ties all the way just to get into the dress. The white under dress fit perfectly. I honestly think that if you have a larger chest size you may want to size up 2 sizes or more. I feel they either need a longer piece of ribbon in he front or a zipper in the back to make it easier to get in and out of.

Bought to wear to Ren Faire. Came quickly. IT HAS POCKETS!! It is 2 pieces which I love so no worry about the purple bleeding onto the white. Corset is very nice-legit boning. Bodice is beautiful. Fabric nice and soft not at all scratchy which is good because I can't handle gross fabric on my skin🙄. Got so many compliments. Definitely would recommend! To be honest for the price I was expecting a lower quality so was VERY pleasantly surprised.

Overall this dress is pretty decent. It's great for an occasional dress up or costume event. It looks beautiful and high quality. My only issue is the material used has a cheap polyester look and feel to it. The chemise should have been linen or some similar cloth instead. The skirt could have also been a softer and less plastic feeling fabric. It's not really something you can tell by looking but it's very obvious in how it feels and these fabrics do tend to cling with static and get hot really easily.I'm rather petite (5'4, 110lbs) and usually wear a size 2-4 but the 6 fits me fine due to the corset lacing.I'd say this dress would be fine if you were taking photos or wanted something pretty for a costume party. It may work for a ren faire, but the fabric might make it uncomfortable and sweaty if you were to wear it all day. For the price it's a great piece but don't expect anything really high quality.
