Adrianna PapellWomen's Short Sleeve Blouson Beaded Gown

When I was looking for a dress for my son's wedding, I kept seeing this dress & passing it over. After a long search for the "perfect" dress & failing, I became desperate & ordered 6 dresses from Amazon's try before you pay program 1 week before the wedding. This dress was one of the dresses I tried on & I loved it. I wish I would have ordered it from the beginning. It was plenty long (I'm 5'8), the fit was very flattering. I received tons of compliments on the dress. I am so happy that I found a winner in my desperate final hours of dress shopping!

Upon arrival, the dress already had some beading issues and pulls that I fixed myself. But I cant fault it seemed like the tag snagged a few beads during shipping. The dress is gorgeous, I wore it to a black tie wedding and got complimented all night. I’m 5’8” and it was like 2 inches shorter than I wished, not a big enough deal to return or really care since it was so flattering. The bust of it is a bit flowy and gives it a unique look.

Color and fit are perfect! Size 10, I am 5’6” and weigh 145lbs. Very classy, fits close to body but not tight. Lovely weight and drape. About 2” too long for me as I wear 2” heels. Easy to cut and sew under dress and only cut tulle type over dress to fit. Deep forest or hunter green, I’m wearing to a wedding in Oct but would be amazing for the holidays in Dec and Jan!

I bought this for a wedding and realized the style/ cut is tighter on the shoulders than other gowns of the same brand. I have previously purchased other gowns in a size 16. Otherwise delivery was fast the gown came intact and the beads and sequins were all intact

Dress is beautiful and very well made. Color is also spot on. However, I wear a 16 in dresses and this dress (size18) did not fit. It was tight on the chest (I’m a 36 DDD) and tight on the tummy and hips

Beautiful color and very comfortable. Great price for an evening dress

I ordered a few dresses to try for a formal event. This dress was my favorite but sadly I have to return it because its a bit too large.I am 5'3" and 130lbs a little pear shaped.I ordered a size 8. The dress seems well made of nice quality but its too big all around. It is also a little too long but the beading stops before the bottom of the dress so that there is room to have it hemmed if you like.I wish I had time to try to order a size 6 but it wouldnt arrive in time for my event.

It was pretty and fit well but it was too long. I ended up being unable to wear it (not enough time to alter it) and returned it.

I love this designer! This is the 3rd dress I have bought from her. This dress is good quality and well made. I bought the beige for my brothers wedding (photo is of me and my brother) And I bought the emerald colour for a ball, but poor lightingin photo. Only thing is that you do have to be careful of the beading. Mine all survived the event but still take care like you would any formal gown. So comfortable and I get so many compliments whenever I wear her dresses. I'm 166cm and 78kg. I bought Australian size 14 but I could of gotten away with a 12. It does touch the ground with 7cm heels. You can trim the length by an inch or two if really needed. Highly recommend to grab any of her dresses when on sale so you have them on hand!

Size is true to size. Love the product so does my husband.

I ordered this dress for our daughters wedding. I had my eye on it for many weeks but could only find it in Navy online and at the stores I went to. I needed green. Finally I did an online google search with photo and found this beautiful Dusty Green colour here. Who knew I'd find my perfect dress on Amazon and got it in 2 days. I was very careful to take my measurements and used the size chart. The dress fit like it was made for me. Very comfortable. The only thing I had to do was get it shortened. I am 5'2", 125 pounds, 38x35x40 and bought a size 14. I was very disappointed that during the ceremony a whole line of beads started falling off. Not sure this can be fixed.

This dress is a gorgeous deep red and beautiful craftsmanship but it would fit a moderate to short waisted figure better because of where the bodice meets the skirt. Especially if one has a full bosom as well.

The dress is beautiful, the beads on the dress are hand sewn and it's true fit. Much to my disbelief, the dress was shipped in a plastic bag as though it was a piece of rag. People, use your brain. I know you want to use less packaging but if one bead came off, then it's a domino effect on the rest of the beads. Not one size fits all. Some products need to be properly packaged. For that reason, I'm rating this 2 stars.
