GUNNE SAX for ModCloth Grace Peplum Midi Dress

Disappointed in quality

Ordered the large first and was unimpressed. Despite the corset, the fit was boxy. The plastic connecting the straps to the dress felt very cheap and kept sliding into vertical position. The cream colored ties felt like low-quality paracord. Overlooking these issues, I ordered a medium to see if I’d be less bothered by these things if the fit was great. The medium did fit better, but came with a funky zipper that felt seconds away from breaking. Sent them both back.

Authentic style, great plus size fit

I bought this dress for a dance performance with a 70s theme, and it was perfect. As someone with a smaller top size than my lower size, I made some alterations to get a more precise fit since I was going to be moving quite a bit on stage. The styling and construction was very similar to the Gunne Sax dresses I wore as a teenager, and it looked great.

Returned

I was so excited for this collection and the dress looked beautiful. First, I agree with other reviewers; the tie on the corset was incredibly cheap which is ridiculous at this price point. There was a lot of gaping around the top which looked ridiculous and I didn’t find the dress flattering overall which is why I returned it.
