Not Even Close, October 3, 2011
This review is from: Mystery House Women's Upstairs Maid Costume (Apparel)
While the costume package received had the same model picture, the dress IS NOT exactly what you see pictured here. Very similar, but not the same dress. The apron in the front is a smaller oval shape, rather than the square apron seen in the picture. Not that this mattered so much, but it only made it that much more obvious that the model here is not wearing the same dress. Also, the apron band fits more around your middle, as opposed to where the model is wearing it at her hips.
I am 5'4", about 117lbs, a B boob size. I ordered a medium.
Taking it out of the packaging, my first thought was, "Wow, this seems kinda cheap." Upon putting it on, the straps for the arms were way to long and my boobs did not fill out the top what so ever, causing the neckline to be straight across rather than the slight v-neck seen in the picture. This together made a very unflattering box shaped neckline. Even after attempting to stuff my bra with socks, it appeared only superhuman mega-boobs would make the top fill out the way it should. Not that i was planning to wear the costume with socks in my bra - i was merely curious However, despite the over-sized top, the waist was snug and fit okay - aside from the bunching, cheap extra material. It was clear that in the small size the waist would not fit me. In addition, the crossed lace in the front becomes crooked after walking in it for more than a minute, and the skirt was so short it barely covered my ass cheeks.
My roommate, who is 5'8" with a similar body type and a similar boob size also tried it on, with nearly all the same problems, though the waistline bunched up a bit less. And of course her ass was practically hanging out.
No complaints about the delivery time or anything of that sort - Simply a bad, cheaply made product. A size up or size down would still not fit, and i highly doubt this dress could properly fit anyone - which must be why they couldn't even picture a model wearing the dress. I am returning it.
