Dolce Vita Reviews and Ratings

I bought this dress in the creme, size M. Being an Australia size 10 and 5'2" I found that this dress was slightly too loose around the torso and forearm - but not to an extent that it looks out of proportion. The bodice was less sheer than it appeared in the photos which I am happy about. However, my main concern with this dress is that the zipper on the left hand side is very difficult to do up as it gets caught where the bodice and skirt of the dress join together. I am sure this is due to the delicate nature of the materials used to create the garment, but even with an extra set of hands helping I cannot easily get into this dress. Despite this being a potential wardrobe staple for hot Australian summers with the flattering cut and light materials used, the zipper issue may be enough for me to consider returning this dress.

This dress is gorgeous! Really sexy cutouts that shows just the right amount of bra/cleavage. The top is a a little sheer, but double layers on the bottom.

I have been stalking this dress for over a year. It is a beautiful dress, but it is not built for my body type. I have broad-ish shoulders, I am pretty muscular and I have a very narrow waist. With that being said, I ordered a medium and a small. The small was too small, in the shoulders and arms. For reference, I wear a size 2-4 in dresses, 25-27 in jeans, and x-small to small in shirts (with no boobs what so ever). The medium was too long in the waist and I have a long torso. It fit better in the shoulders and arms but everything else was too large and long. There was nothing my tailor could do. Sadly, it went back. Personally, I think the arm holes are made for a more slender body not a muscular one.

This is a disappointment. Way too big and too grunge.

Loved this dress. Wore it for a birthday and got so many compliments! The top is see through so make sure to wear a cute bra underneath it. Highly recommend!

I got this in blue, it looked so pretty and had so many reviews but it didn't wear well on me like it seemed to others. I am 5"2, 34D, 25 waist, 34 hips. The top for starters is not meant for busty women! I ordered an xs, it fit everywhere but looked all wrong on the chest, it was too tight, and because of this, it pulled the waistline fabric up, making it look ill flattering. I also don't like that the skirt part is the only part with lining. It doesn't show off the cutout detail. I wish the top was lined so I could wear it without my chest pushing out on the cut outs. It's made for tall flat chested people. Not flattering for small curvy girls!

After a year of contemplating and (re)reading so many reviews, I finally purchased this dress....and I could not be more pleased! I was hesitant about sizing, but I went with my gut and purchased the xs. For reference, I am 5'2" 105 lbs 32-24-33. I find the xs to be slightly loose (as pictured above) and have no issues with the arms being too tight, even though I don't have thin arms. Overall, I am so glad I finally purchased this dress and I can't wait to wear it all summer long :)

Perfect dress, fits perfectly, the lace is sexy without being too provocative and stays very chic.

I cannot say enough about this dress. So flattering and so gorgeous in person. I have gotten so many compliments on this dress. The fabric is kind of thin so make sure to order your correct size. I just wear back with a nude lacy bra. The top portion is not lined and see-through. Love this dress!

Light weight fabric, flattering cut. I usually wear a 0/2 and ordered an XS. The shoulders are a little narrow for me, but I tend to have that problem. Can be worn dressed up or down. Can't wait to wear it for my bridal shower!!!

The back of this dress is beautiful, and the bottom half is very flattering. The quality is great. The front is not very seethrough which is nice. I don't have very slim shoulders/upper arms so I find the bell sleeves do not look very good on me. I bought a Large and I am 5ft8 and weigh 140 pounds. I think it is a bit big in the upper shoulder/chest area.

I love the color, it is so spring

perfect little white dress. a little big for me, but it works for summer. lovely details. will never go out of style.

The top is absolutely gorgeous! The embroidery at the bottom is beautiful and the fabric isn't as sheer as I expected which is great. It's really versatile, can be worn with shorts or pants, alone or with a blazer.

A beautiful lace top! I receive compliments everytime I wear it! A little semi-sheer. Goes beautifully with jeans or shorts.
