I am full busted and between sizes so ordered the larger size and it seems to work perfectly. I feel like a princess in this dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Perfect Holiday Party Dress. Fits well, great color, very pretty. Especially like the bodice, the straps and even in red it is slimming.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
talk about flattering. I'm a size 16 and this dress fits like a glove. I got more compliments on it. (wore to a wedding). so flattering when I saw it was available in red, I ordered it right away. would own it in any color. IN FACT, I'm having it copied for my wedding dress. (I'm an older bride and it's a destination wedding, so I wanted something soft and flowing). told the seamstress to make it exactly the same. Love, love, love this dress!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress in red to wear to a wedding. It was very pretty but it was too large on top for me. Also, I'm 5'7" and it came to my ankles, thought it would be tea length. The color was beautiful and the shawl was ample.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This is a most beautiful dress and it is very comfortable to wear as well. I have had a black one for 2 years. It is a bra-friendly dress, just make sure that your bra is cut low. It will flatter your figure and make you feel ABSOLUTELY LOVELY!!! It is a wedding/party type dress...very comfortable to dance in. I just wish that they mad it in tall sizes. I ordered the ruby one and it is gorgeous!! The shawl is handy if you are a little shy about having your arms and shoulders bare. If you get the right fit, YOU'VE GOT SOMETHING!!!! GOOD LUCK!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I like this dress, however, it is to short waisted. The straps on the dress could be a little longer and purchasing a larger size would make the dress way to long and big in the body
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I used this for a wedding and reception. It was elegant and comfortable.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought the Red Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl, and I love it. But I had to shorten the straps alot before it was decent to wear in public as I am rather big breasted and before the adjustments were made it was, way TOO low cut.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
The dress was very pretty. I went by the size chart and also spoke to a represenative and the dress was extremely big. I now have to send it back.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This is a very pretty dress it was one of two that I ordered for a wedding and I liked the other one better so I am returning this one. However I would highly recommend this dress... you can't go wrong with this one if you need it for a special occasion.

this dress made my anniversary dinner
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I was really happy with this purchase. The dress was very pretty, it was comfortable and nice enough to wear to a formal wedding. The only thing that I did not like was that the liner was too low on my chest. For some, this may be okay, but for those who are uncomfortable with showing a lot of skin (cleavage to be exact), it is important to keep this in mind. It might just be my body type, but I'm sure it would sit low on most people.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I purchased this dress in RED. I received so many compliments. It fit beautifully and looked awesome on me. The one regret was the left-side zipper. I could not zip it without help. Other than that, no problems. I plan to order it in black, too!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I wore this as a bridesmaid dress and it turned out perfect. It was comfortable but dressy too! Plus I can wear it for other formal occassions.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress for my nephew's wedding after searching and finding nothing I liked in the local stores. I measured at one size but my instinct said to order it a size larger. Glad I did! It fit like a dream and I received many compliments at the wedding and reception. The only issue I had with it was getting the wrinkles out. Since it comes packed in a box the wrinkles are unavoidable. I used my clothing steamer and had to go over it three times. The length worked for me...I'm 5'9" and it hit me low on the calf. It would be tea length or longer on a shorter person. Other than that I love it!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I loved the dress, it was very flattering on.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Going by the measurement chart provided online the dress needed was a 26. When we recieved the dress it was too big, we should have ordered a 24. Other than that the dress is great!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
bought to wear to wedding, worried about the red color being too bright but it turned out to be fine. I received many compliments ! Only problem was VERY low in front, sewed a similar piece of fabric in the front and made it a tiny bit more modest !

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I am so disappointed in how I looked in this dress. The reviews are good, but there was just something about the top, i.e the bra area. I just thought the cups and straps were so big looking. I have big breasts, but it just looked funny. I am sure it looks nice on others.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Asolutely BEAUTIFUL! But be careful when using the sizing chart. I ordered what it recommended and it was way too big all over and too long. Had to return this item and didn't have enough time to replace it before my function. Wish I'd ordered my reg. size. Too bad.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I purchase the dress for a very formal wedding that was having a cocktail reception afterward. I am a plus size woman and I received so many compliments on the dress. It has such a flow to it that it makes you feel beautiful. My only suggestion is that the straps should be a little wider.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
As soon as I put this dress on, I felt overwhelmed with happiness. It fit perfectly, the fabric felt so nice, I looked in the mirror & was so happy with the way I looked. I couldnt believe that I would ever fall in love with a dress, I dont wear dresses. I will be wearing this as a bridesmaid for my sisters wedding & I couldnt be happier with my choice.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought the black dress about a year ago and found that the top was too tight. Rather than return it, I gave it to a friend who adored it. Last month, I ordered the red dress a size larger and it was a perfect fit. No, it was not a weight issue, same weight as last year.
Would like to see more red special occasion dresses.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Too Small...greatly disappointed!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I have to express my gratitude to "Jessica London Catalog" for making great fitting dresses. I ordered two recently for a wedding. This particular dress I used during the reception. I ordered it in Ruby and must say that it has made me very happy. Everyone was complementing me on the way if flattered my curves and how perfect the fit accentuated all of the right spots. One note of caution, it was longer than I expected but it end up being just perfect! Thank you JL!

Fits like a dream can't wait to wear it!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I wore this dress to a wedding, and I felt beautiful in it. I'm a big girl and rather self-conscious about wearing dresses, but this one was flattering and comfortable. My only quibble is that the top is a little too low-cut for my taste, but it wasn't unacceptable by any means, and there's enough material to close it up a little with a nice brooch if you want. The shawl is nice and long (too often they're too short to wear comfortably), although the black-on-black looks a little funereal - wear big bright jewelry to offset it.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I am wearing it to a 30 year classic reunion banquiet. The things that is great about it is all. The only complaint I have is that you need more clothes in my size.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
It is a beautiful gown, I got the ruby color. It does not show it in the book. It is very pretty. It was a little tight in the upper abdomen. But got alot of comments on it. My husband is in the 4th degree of K of C and I wear it there.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress was so comfortable and I received numerous compliments! Label says it's machine washable. I washed it b/c it was wrinkled and it came out fine. Tough to iron, but layers are flattering on even a lumpy and not so flattering figure such as mine!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I got this dress in the Ruby Red color and was so pleased with the depth of color. It is so pretty.
Once tried on, I realized the dress is also very flattering. It fits a bit big in the bust (and I have a sizable chest), but not so much as to be unflattering.
The skirt lays well, and moves well and it makes me feel pretty to wear it!
The satin straps really make it classy, perfect for a night out!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Wonderful dress. Wore it to a elegant 50th anniversary. I felt sexy and comfortable, everyone loved the dress. I would like to purchase it in red and I will tell a friend.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress was wonderful. I used it as a bridesmaid dress for two weddings. Everyone complimented me on how beautiful I looked. The dress was comfortable to wear all night long. Someone spilled a drink on me and all I had to do was hold each slip layer under the hand dryer for a few seconds... good as new! I love the fact that I didn't have to worry about my bra strap showing as well. Warning... the dress is fairly low cut.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress to wear to an evening wedding. It is perfect for that! I am a 40DD and purchased a size 20. The bust was a good 2 inches from zipping but felt good every where else, so I went for a size 24 and am currently waiting on that one to see how it fits, may have to have it taken in at the waist. My husband said it was a "sexy" dress!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I asked that you provide this in another color. Thank you. I just received the ruby. It is stunning. This will look good on any body type.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this to wear to my sister's wedding and I only had to take in the straps and nip the waist alittle. After that it fit well. The color is right and length was fine after alterations. Not bad for the total purchase price of [$] after my discounts through Jessica London were applied. I would recommend it as a special occassion dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Beautiful dress, but the bra area would not zip up and I ordered my size, and I am only a c cup, didnt order a larger size, looking for something better.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I loved the dress, when I first saw it. I ordered it w/a 30% discount. It was a little snug, I returned it for a larger size [...] then charged the original price when they sent the different size. Not fair if you ask me. I then sent the 2nd dress back [...] Makes no sense to me. I will not be doing business like this in the future.

I'm going to use the dress for a friends wedding! It is exactly what I was looking for and it also looks great! Very pleased.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I will wear this to my daughters rehearsal dinner in November with a faux fur instead of the shear shawl that came with the dress. The bust a little too small for my 5'4, 200 lbs, 40C frame and staps a little too long but seamstress will fix for me. (things off the rack seldom fit perfect in special occasion dresses, expect to alter).

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this for a formal occasion. I used the size charts and bought what I thought was appropriate, for 3 different outfits. All are two sizes too big. I thought of altering this, but it is a sheer overlay over a gown and would require extensive altering. I'm going to exchange it - it's worth it!

Beautiful dress!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I loved the way the fabric feels and flows. What I was not happy about was the lining is so much tighter than I would like and it was very low cut. I wore a diffrent shaw with it and pinned it closed, so it would not be so revealing. Other than that, the dress was great. I would like to see it in another color, like red and blue or green. I would buy it if it were in those colors and more than likey one of each.

I bought this dress for my High School Alumni Gala. I was kinda scared because I didn't get the dress until Wednesday before the event. I though it may need some alterations. When I put on the dress it was a perfect fit. I don't know how this happen, but I was delighted. Thanks for making my night wonderful

I bought this dress for a wedding & cruise. I'm small breasted & it fits nicely. It conceals my tummy area. I'm 5'4" so I ordered a petite. The length is perfect. I would recommened this dress.
I can't wait to see his reaction to the dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I was pleasantly surprised considering the price. The dress is quite nice. I ordered my regular size. The top needs a slight alteration because it is just a tiny bit too large. If this were not an empire style, the waist would be too big. But due to the style, it's not noticeable. Otherwise, it fits beautifully.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress was purchased as a bridesmaid dress. The bride made it easy, and we can all choose a black dress of our choice. I shopped at the local bridal shops, but couldn't find anything for under $250 once I had to pay for alterations. This is just dressy enough, and since I am 5'4", the length is past my ankles, so the almost to the floor makes it seem dressier. I do have to have the straps taken up and some of the waist taken in - other than that, a perfect fit. I also like the shawl that comes with.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
On arrival this dress will be wrinkled somewhat due to packaging. I used my iron on a low setting and did it myself and it turned out fine. I also stayed to my true size when ordering and did not go by the measurements. I ordered a 16W and it fit perfectly, very comfortable and hid my flaws. I felt very elegant. I am 5'5 so the dress came down to my ankles, but with heels looked nice. I wore this to a black tie event and felt that this dress fit right in with the style and event. I read several reviews before purchasing and saw that some stated that if ordered by the measurements that it will be too big. I also am a D cup and the bust fit perfectly and I did not find it to be too revealing.

This dress is beautiful, worn to an anniversary celebration. I recieved tons of compliments. The fit is exceptional, purchased the size 22 perfect fit. I am an hour glass figure type, dress glides over my curves. My husband had never saw the dress all he could say was it is beautiful. I give this dress high reviews, I have purchased more expensive clothing that did not compare to the quality of fabric, or fit of the garment. Please give us more colors to chose from in this dress.

I wore this gown to a Mardi Gras Ball here in Mobile. This was the most comfortable gown i've worn in years! I had many compliments on this gown too! It fits true to size and the picture does not do it justice. It just flows! I'm short so I was able to wear it as a formal floor length gown. It would also be wonderful as a t-length dress!

I wore this dress to an awards program that was televised. It looked beautiful on the screen and in person. The only downside was the low cut of the bodice. I'm very top heavy..but the shawl worked great as a drape. The picture shows how I modified it.

I chose this dress for my company holiday party, which I was hosting. I needed something that would make me look great in the spotlight but also be comfortable enough for running around all night playing hostess to 300! This dress was perfect. It's very flattering, and the material was much more comfortable than I thought without looking inexpensive or casual. Can't wait for another reason to wear it.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Loved this dress, but as another buyer pointed out, plus size girls usually don't like sleeveless things and I am no exception, she had hers sent to the tailors to have sleeves made of the shawl - BRILLANT mine is going just as soon as possible then it will be a 5 star for sure! It is a little too long but I am 5'4" and that happens alot and I like things long anyway

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This is a beautiful dress and a bargain at this price. However, I only gave the dress four stars because I really would have preferred it with sleeves. The dress is at the tailors---he's making the shawl into sleeves. Since most larger size women are self-conscious about their upper arms, I don't even know why manufacturers bother making sleeveless dresses in women's sizes. Even a short ruffle sleeve is better than nothing.

I often attend affairs that require me to dress up and this dress allows me the ability to accessorize with any color.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Well I am not a dress lady and this was wonderful. I was comfortable for the entire night and everyone commented on it. It is revealing and concealing at the same time.

I bought this dress for a black tie affair. It is nice for an older person perhaps but if your young or young at heart you may not like it.

Runs small under the bustline
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
What a beautiful party dress! It fits without even one alteration. I am 5'9" and it's plenty long on me. The back shoulder area is sheer so I'm off to shop for a strapless bra. Can't wait to wear this dancing!

I wore this to a military ball and it was perfect for the occasion. I'm 5'4 so it went down to my ankles. The fabric was a bit clingy for me but beyond that the dress was great. Very pretty and comfortable.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Although the dress is lovely, and makes a great party dress, it did not fit "me" properly. I am small in the bust and large everywhere else, so the bodice was too big, while everything else fit as it should. The side zipper was a nice touch.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
When I wore this dress to an office party, I received numerous compliments! I not only looked pretty, I felt beautiful in this dress. I was kind of hesitant about too much of my arms being out. However, the scarf added ease to that feeling

[...] The dress is a bit too large and not as "sturdy" in the bodice as it appearsin the photograph.[...].All in all, it IS a pretty dress and the length is great for me at 5'9".

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Dress is very pretty, but sized for someone with larger hips and a smaller bust. I am evenly proportioned and the top was very small. And yes I followed the formal wear rule: Always go up a size as formal wear is sized small.

This dress is very stylish! It's beautiful and it compliments very well. I love it! I've never purchased a T-Strap dress before because I didn't think it would look good on me but this one did! The shawl adds a very sexy touch!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I was looking for something to go to a New Years Bash, I am going to London England, and I looked everywhere for the perfect dress to go with my man and his sexy Tux.. and I finally found it in this dress, I am 5.5 perfect wanted it to go to my ankles. and its the stunning and elegant with the shawl... My man says I look like his Princess and he can't wait to escort me in this beautiful dress.. I am very satisfied!!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
The dress was pretty and fit well. However, it is almost floor length. I'm 5'5, and tried it on with 3 1/2" heels, and the dress still went to my ankles. Makes it too formal for my occasion, and didn't like it enough to spend the $$ to shorten.
The back was kind of boring too. It's just straight across, kind of square Given the fun/stylish front, I was hoping for something different in the back even a v neck to match the front (or a picture of the back so I knew what to expect)

Wore this to a military ball, and I HATE dresses. I always feel like my hips are SO wide in dresses, but I felt sexy and fabulous in this one. Have NEVER felt so good confident in the formal setting. What a GREAT dress!!!!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress to wear to a wedding. I got many compliments both from friends and a complete stranger I passed on the street. It is extremely comfortable. I did find it ran a little big and does wrinkle easy. However, I will still wear this dress again and highly recommend it.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress after reading the reviews. I was amazed when I received the dress and tried it on that it fit perfectly. Imagine that with a side zipper!! The three layers of the dress give it a nice flow when you move. The bustline is sexy because of the sheer fabric overlay. I look forward to wearing this dress again, the only 'bummer' is the dry cleaning!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I really love this dress. I bought it for this years Christmas party. Its a fancy event, and i needed something pretty formal, this dress is really exactly what I was looking for. It definatly feels true to size. The only thing is, I am only 5ft 4in so the dress does not fall and mid calf for me, it is a floor length gown on me, which isnt bad either. Decided to leave it that way, made it look even more formal. I'm very excited to wear it to the party :)
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I ordered this dress for my sons wedding. It was the perfect choice, very flattering. I ordered a size smaller than what I normally would, it fit perfectly. It's very comfortable and slimming. I looked at this dress for a couple of months before I decided to order as I was leary to order online, I'm so glad I did. It was the perfect choice!

The dress is beautiful, but not for hour glass women does not define waist at all, if your fuller in the mid section, this dress is awesome!!! The fabric is beatiful, well made, great detail
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I actually had to return the first dress. [...] it was too tight in the breast area [...]
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This is a very simple style but very elegant. Good fit except perhaps in the bust where it was a little loose but I think I can fix that. Down side is I think this is an easy wrinkle outfit.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Great dress, just added a shrug for a little more
cover.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress has a neat design, you could drop a few pounds and wear it, or gain a few pounds and wear it. Nice waist cut allows that. Fabric not a dressy as I thought it was pictured, but will work and should pack easilly.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I am wearing this dress to a theme party. The theme is James Bond. My husband is wearing a white jacket tux..like the 60's. I think this dress will help provide the Bond Girl look to go with the white jacket tux very well.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I wasn't sure how this would look on as it looks very plain and non-descript when it arrived, but once on, I knew it was a keeper. I am short (5'4") so it was floor length with me and I wore strappy sandals with it. I never got more compliments on a dress. It was comfortable to dance in and flattering...even in pictures. Would love it in multiple colors.

The dress is okay. Feels smaller than actual sizing. Tight at bust, rides up.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress was purchased as a "Special Occasion" dress. It appeared as listed in the catalog. Downfall - when received it so wrinkled, as if it were rolled in a ball and left for days prior to mailing.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Note on fit: After a day of shopping brick-and-mortar, I ordered the size I'd been trying on all day, which was *two sizes* smaller than the size chart suggested. That size is the one I noted above as fitting perfectly, though anyone who's a large-C cup or larger may spill out of the top (it feels lower cut than it looked on the model.) It may be difficult to find a bra that would work with this dress; I wore a corselet and it worked perfectly. As others have said, this dress is comfortable and flattering, and looked good for our black-tie dinner-dance. The side zipper, though invisible once zipped, is very difficult to maneuver; I suspect anyone who lives alone would find this dress impossible to zip, and even with my husband assisting the zipper resisted. Aside from awkward placement, I suspect this is partly because the zipper feels very flimsy. In fact, the dress as a whole is polyester and feels like it--light, airy, machine-washable (or so says the label in the dress), but unlikely to stand up to much use. The included scarf/shawl is generously-sized and looks good with the dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Pulled dress apart, removed bodice and took out 4 inches in the width at the top. Once it was fitted to me it was a great dress. Very nice if it fits you correctly. Much larger than actual size.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Beautiful dress that I purchased to wear to a wedding. However after using the sizing chart I ended up with a dress that is enormous on me. Had to have it altered because I wasn't sure I could get the right size in time for the wedding. Also I didn't even know at that point what size to order.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I liked this dress in the catalogue and though I seldom get this dressed up I have a black tie wedding to attend soon so tried it. I am shaped funny- bigger in the hip than the bosom- so actually had to purchase three sizes to find the one that fit me. It was worth the fussing though. I will need to take it in in the bosom area, and the bodice is not as low-cut as indicated in the picture, but that's easily fixed. The model in the image must be 6 foot tall because this is floor length on me at 5'8". This will work for me now but I will need to shorten it to match the image and be more versatile later on. Still, good value for the money.
One note- I know it comes with a shawl but wish there was a version with sheer three-quarter sleeves for those of us with aging fatter arms. I'm adding those to my dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this for my daughters wedding. Order early to get the correct size. I normally wear a size 28. Ordered a size 26 & it's still a little big in the bust.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this for a black tie fund raiser and felt properly dressed.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
If you base your order on the size chart, you'll get a dress that's way too large. I ordered two sizes and had to return both because the smaller one was too big. On the bright side, the dress looks much better on the body than on the hanger.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Really is pretty but it deff needs to get professionally pressed to get all the wrinkles out.

I am so pleased that the dress fit so we'll, and I received it in a timely manner ready for my cruise for my birthday.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
this was really pretty. I didnt think it looked as nice on me as it did the girl on the picture. I was thinking of it for a cruise and using it on formal night but it seems like more of a dressy dinner dress than a gown type dress. I liked it tho.The shawl is more for show than anything as its so sheer it woudnt keep you warm

The dress was a little longer than the picture showed. Very, very beautiful and classic. Would recommend to anyone wanting to make an enterance.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress for a special night out with my husband. I especially like the high waist since it hides my trouble spot. I was disappointed that there aren't actually pleats but the fabric is sown to look pleated. It's still a very pretty dress and I look forward to wearing it.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I purchased this dress for my 30th class reunion. I started to return the dress, since I usually do not wear this style of dress. However, everyone who saw me in the dress loved it. By the evening of the reunion, I loved it too. It looked very elegant and comfortable and little sexy (and washable). I received so many complements on the dress that I am looking forward to another occasion to wear this dress again.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I had some anxiety about going to my 25th high school reunion. I had gained a lot of weight since then!! But this dress made me feel sexy and beautiful!! My husband loved it and so did I! It covered all the "junk in the trunk" and accentuated the positive(bust)!! It is well made and very comfortable! Now they just need to make it with sheer long sleeves for cooler seasons!! hint hint

From the time I first saw this dress I knew it was the one! I am planning on wearing this dress on a cruise that I will be taking with my Aunt. I have decided it will be worn the night we are to sit at the captains table. A special dress for a very special occasion. When I tried it on it fit perfect! I love the sleek design and to offer it in black made it even more stunning for the night out! I always feel so beautiful when I wear it!

I bought this dress for a wedding. My husband didn't care for the picture online, but totally chnged his mind when he saw it on me. I received several compliments over the course of the night. I must admit after reading the other comments that I was a little leery about the sizing, but I ordered my usual size. I did not use the sizing chart on here. I have found that it isn't necessarily accurate. If between sizes or larger busted, I would suggest that you order the larger size.
Blurry but Lookin' Good

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I ordered two different sizes of this dress. I am a 18w, ordered the 22 + 20. It did not hang right. I looked pregnant. It was also very long (I'm 5'6). I thought the pleats though out were going to be dramatic,the dress was actually very straight and plain. Would definately need professional pressing to achive the pictured look. I had to buy a different dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
[...]after taking into consideration of what others wrote...i ordered the right size..shoo! fit perfect!! i thought the length would have to be hemmed, because there was no option for a petite length. i am 5'3" and it was at my ankles, so it was great for a long length. i will however have to have it pressed as other consumers said..[...]
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I ordered this dress in two sizes. BOTH were huge, either I had miraculously shrunk (wishful thinking) or it was cut really big. I loved the dress, thought it was beautiful and stylish. Great for a cocktail party or other dressy occasion. Unfotunately it won't do for me and I don't have time to re-order to try more sizes. Beautiful dress though.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I hadn't worn a froo-froo dress forever, and needed something fancy but classic from my niece's wedding. I saw this dress in the catalog and fell in love with it. I ordered it in a size up from my regular size and it was too long in the straps and the empire waist was too big. I ended up returning it for my true size, size 20, and will still have to shorten the straps a bit, but there is ample room everywhere else and it looks great. I love the empire waist fit. I love the fabric quality. I love the sleek style. I love how the skirt swishes so beautifully when I twirl around. I feel elegant.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Followed sizing guide and ordered the size to fit my measurements, however it was HUGE (also it was missing the shawl). I called Roamans, and asked for an exchange, they were out of one size smaller, so I risked taking 2 sizes down (really wanted it for my cruise). The smaller size fits perfect !! Roamans has great service. This dress is absolutely Beautiful !! I am wearing on formal night on my cruise, but this can be worn to ANY special occasion (wedding, formal, etc).
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I wore this dress for my son's wedding and was absolutely stunning. I intend to wear it again New Year's Eve. The length works great for those who have less than perfect legs. The shawl is just what I needed to cover my mid to upper arms. Definitely gets attention from everyone.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress is beautiful! Many have commented to order bigger but if you are a pear shape with a smaller top/chest and larger bottom you might want to go a size smaller. I am 5'9 and usually wear a 22 bottom and 18/20 top. I purchased a size 20 and it fits perfectly. It does help if you are taller. This fits me at mid-calf. I can't wait to wear this to my 20 year reunion and a couple of weddings!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
My major problem with this dress as well as others is that they never have a PLUS size person modeling them. So they look great on the size 2 model, but you never know how it is going to sit on a person with more pronounced curves! Other than that it is a beautiful dress!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
My son is getting married at the end of this month. I am so excited to wear this beautiful dress. I am 5'2" so the dress appears to be more of a "formal gown" on me. Which is exactly what I wanted!!! Plus, it is so flattering in the fact that it hides those unwanted body flaws. All without looking like a tent. I am thinking of adding a rhinestone broach at the center of the empire waist for a bit of sparkle...? Don't know for sure yet, I'll have to see what that will look like.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
A beautiful gown for me (mother of the groom). I just wish it had been in other colors, as I would have liked other choices. I thought the gown was a bit longer than pictured. That or my legs are shorter than I thought! :) All in all, I am very happy with my purchase.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Lovely dress, great look, but not for me...I do not favor the empire waist....I will be returning this item....
Thank you..
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I wore this to a dance-I should have went one more size up because I am busty. The waist and bodice were okay. The shawl is an added bonus. If you have a function to go to at moments notice-this a wonderful dress. It is mature, youthful and elegent all at once!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Well I have bigger upper body as well as lower, the shawl really worked well. I sported this very sleek dress to a banquet and was right on time. More complements that a little. I will suggest it to others but remember it is a look for banquets,being in weddings or some special occasion
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This dress is beautifully designed and made of lovely, good quality fabric. The shawl is also nice fabric and of a good size. I only wish it had fit me better, the front was just way to low cut for me to be comfortable wearing it. Had to return. But will shop Jessica London again.

The dress was beautiful and [...]. I ordered 2 sizes too big and it fit me pretty well. Did take it to the tailor to be altered a smidge and to be steamed. Within minutes of steaming it was very wrinkled again. They resteamed it. Same thing. I wore this in my sister's wedding and felt great in it though! I'd recommend it, just order a size or two bigger.

i bought this dress to wear as matron of honor in my mom's wedding. it fits great. had to order two sizes up tho. ordered other dresses from jessica london and had the same issue. the dress is very flattering, flows over the body. very bra friendly. like other reviews, is lower cut than some of us might be used to. showing it on a full figured model may be helpful to some people.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Didn't fit quite like it was pictured. Also, didn't realize the bottom of the dress was "sectioned" together, didn't care for that part of the dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I did like the dress but it was a bit long and didn't fit right in some places it was too big and other too small..
I'm returning it.

This is the perfect dress for our upcoming cruise. I need something elegant and a good bargin so if I never have the chance to wear it again.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This is a beautiful dress that I will be wearing to a summer evening wedding. The dress fit perfectly and I ordered my larger size of the 2 sizes that usually fit. It will need to be pressed but otherwise feels like a nice quality. Very flowing and swirling when you move and I feel very feminine in this dress. !

I was looking for a dress for my son's wedding. The dress is beautiful and it flows so nice. The dress does run big in the bust area, had to take in the underarm area. It is bra friendly and the material is wrinkle resistant. I loved everything about the dress. It made me feel like a princess. My husband said it was the perfect look for the perfect evening. Many comments on the dress from our guest

I ordered a size up from my regular size based on other reviews and it fit perfectly! I have a very large bust ( G Cup ) so I like that I can wear a bra with this dress!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I loved the dress, however, the size I ordered was too small in the bust. When I tried it on, my husband said, "Wow, what's that for?" I originally ordered it for my 36th class reunion. I have ordered it in a larger size. I hope it comes in time! Can't wait to get it!

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Great dress, I needed a black dress to wear as a bridesmaid dress that would be stylish and similar to the skinny girls dresses. This fit the bill to a tee. very flattering for a size 28.

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Love this dress, the look is wonderful, it is better than I thought it would look. I am 5'8" tall and the length of the dress is just as I like it "LONGER", though a person who is 5'2" would need a petite or have it altered it is the same length on me as on the model in the picture. When I say "Fit Feels Too Small" I am talking about the bustline, the rest of the dress is wonderful. Though I am a size 44DD this dress was snug in the bustline and I can get through that, and it shows my bra, so I will have to buy a strapless, at my size I hope I can find one that will stay up...
All in all this dress is beautiful and looks great on. I can't wait to wear it on our cruise. Everyone needs a black dress, little or not...

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I have learned that you need to order clothes form this catalogue a size or two smaller than the size charts say. If you do that, then you will find that the clothes will fit. I keep a mental list of what size I wear in what catalogue.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress not expecting it to look as beautiful as it does. The on-line picture was pretty, but I did not expect it to look better in person. I brought it to work to show my friends, and we were all pretty amazed at how pretty it was in person. I am going to wear it to a wedding. I do not know how wrinkle resistant it will be, but it is pretty!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I will be wearing this for our 50th wedding ann.
but I am adding a jacket and wish this dress had
a matching jacket. Few women my age and size can
or should expose their upper arms. The shawl is
hardly adequate.
Otherwise,love the dress. It is much better quality
than I expected. I am very pleased.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
The dress looks beautiful in the catalog. The pleating would need to be pressed at the professional cleaners if I was keeping the dress. I don't like the fit so I am returning the dress.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I had been looking for a dress for my daughter's wedding for months, hoping to find the right one. When I came across this on the internet, I knew it was the one. The comments really made my choice easy!Sexy but classy and not over the top formal, perfect for any "dress up" event! Wedding in 2 weeks and can't wait to see my husband's face when he sees me in it; haven't worn a dress for years!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
There's nothing bad to say about this dress, it flows and looks great and sexy too! The shawl is a added touch of class. On that cool evening you don't have to cover your dress with a coat. I love it.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I felt like a queen and was told I looked breathe taking. The man in my life kept telling me how beautiful I looked and treated me like cinderella all night long. I would highly recommend this dress. You can dress it up or dress it down. No matter how you wear it, you are sure to get someones attention. The ladies smiled while the men admired.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
In my case, the bust area was too big so I will need to alter that but everything else about this beautiful dress, I adore.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this dress for a special occasion. I love it. Beautiful and looked great and was comfortable. I couldnt be happier about buying it. I felt great in it and well the compliments were nice to get as well.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I saw this dress several times in the catalog and admired it. It wasn't until I realized I needed a dress for a formal dinner on a cruise that I ordered it at the last minute. It arrived just in time, the fit was great and best of all I received a lot of compliments
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
After reading reviews I decided to take the advice given and order a size smaller and the fit was perfect. I ordered to wear on formal night for my upcoming cruise and can't wait to wear it! Great dress!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Bought this for a cruise later this month. It is beautiful - fit is great, length is perfect and it's very flattering.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
So far, everything that I've ordered from your
company I've been extremely happy with. I like
the fact that you are so accomodating with re-
turns. I think it is the best catalog (that I
receive) to order good quality merchandise from
and the deferred payment plan is awesome.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I wore this gown to a wedding and it was perfect and breezy in the hot weather. I'm 5'2" so it was a tad bit long on me, but I cut the bottom of the gown and hemmed it and it was very easy to do. The material used for this gown is a nice quality material. I loved this beautiful gown...
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
the dress is amazing i am really happy with it though it seems a little too long and the waist is just a tad big i love the dress overall

very flattering to the full figure
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Beautiful Dress
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
This is a very "elegant" and flattering dress for plus sized women. It is very comfortable, and you can wear your bra with it!! Many dresses of this style cannot accommodate a bra because of the straps. This is a very AWESOME dress!! It slims you and keeps you looking very elegant and TOGETHER. You will DEFINITELY be the "Belle of the Ball" in this lovely dress!! Enjoy!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
The dress was nice, but.... the bust was too small, and overall it looked NOTHING like it did on the model. If you are going to sell Plus size clothing, then perhaps using a plus size model would be a good idea.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I bought this item for a cruise I'm taking in August, so I haven't worn it yet, though I've tried it on. I absolutely love it! It is a wonderful length on my 5'7" frame. It hits me at the ankles. I feels so sexy and luxurious.
I feel like the "pleats" do great things for a larger figure, taking away from the lumps and bumps that many of us might show very easily in a fabric that is straight or satiny. It is very hard to find a dress that is pretty and flattering to the fuller figure, but this is the one. I wish that it had a shrug, rather than a shawl, as I find shawls annoying to deal with practically. I plan to buy a shrug to pair with this.
Keep in mind the top is a bit low cut, and has a sheer covering towards the top. You may need a new bra, possibly demi because a full coverage bra may be visible.

I'm going to wear this to a wedding on the beach in Maua. Its perfect. Dressy, yet light!!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I am a little over 5'10 " and this dress was the perfrect lenght on me! I hate when dresses are too short and look funny! The dress hit me at the right tea lenght spot. I used this dress for my sisters summer wedding as her matron of honor. From ordering to shipping to arrival this was a great purchase! Thanks!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I was looking for an elegant dress for my son's wedding. I am petite so I knew when I ordered this dress it would be way too long but a trip to the seamtress and it is perfect. When I tried it on, I felt like Ginger Rogers and that Fred Astaire would come out and dance with me. It is a beautiful dress!
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Bought this dress to wear to a friends wedding. Beautiful dress. A little big in the bust which was a surprise since other reviews said too small. But overall a nice fit. Extremely comfortable and great coverage.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
Ladies the dress is ment to be sexy, sassy and feminine, When did some of you forget that phat girls have a bustline also..Use that shawl like a necklace.. Get one of those black bras with the soft lace front.For u whom say the front is to low or to big stuff the shawl across the front inside it will fill in the bust and hide the cleavage. Do you think only our skinny sisters have the right to show off their bust. Sensual does not always mean trampish..Stop hiding behind baggy t-shirt and covering yourself up.This dress is classic and awesome. Red carpet dress designers have nothing to compare to this dress so buy it and Flaunt it.

need to come in different colors:
perfect for weddings
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I was only unhappy with the fact that I read a customer's comment that the bust ran small and to order this dress in a size larger than my size. Well, I did this and it was too big which would not have mattered except for the most frustrating fact of all. Every time I tried to order this dress it was on back order and I am the mother of the bride in a wedding and did not have time to wait for the back order so I had to take it to a seamstress to have alterations done.
Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:

Comments about Jessica London Slip Empire Waist Gown And Shawl:
I purchased this dress to take along on our Caribbean cruise. I am large chested, and can usually not wear an empire waist, but really wanted to try this dress. I ordered it 2 sizes larger than normal, and it was almost perfect. I need to make a small alteration, other than that I am thrilled. When on, it made me feel beautiful and elegant.
