4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Sexy....But Tight!, 5.31.2013
Reviewer: MV (Melrose, MA)

I love this dress. All the reviews are spot on with respect to this dress being very flattering. However, I am usually a size 14 and I ordered a 1x, but it is tight!!!! Although I may exchange for a 2x, I am definitely pleased with the style.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 My Favorite Kiyonna Dress, 5.1.2013
Reviewer: Erin (Huntsville, AL)

I've bought 4 dresses from Kiyonna and this is definitely my favorite. Although I have a rectangle-shaped body, the lines made me look slimmer and gave me some rocking curves.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 THE DRESS EVERY WOMAN NEEDS!!, 4.16.2013
Reviewer: Sara Mendicino (Albany, NY)

To say I love this dress is an understatement! If I could give it a million stars, I would! I wore this dress to my law school's formal and I felt and looked AMAZING! I am a law student on a tight budget, so this was worth the investment without a doubt! It hid all the things I didn't want to show (tummy) with the ruching, but highlighted all my curves. In other words, my hips, waist, bust, and butt were all accentuated in just the right way! I got it in the red and it was so pretty! I received so many compliments on how I looked in the dress! I must have told, at the very least, 10 girlfriends about it! I received even more compliments when I posted the pictures up online. I referred even more ladies to Kiyonna! If you want to be classy and sexy all at the same time, this is the dress! I cannot wait to have a reason to wear it again!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Speechless!, 4.5.2013
Reviewer: Miriam (Hilliard, ohio)

Wow! I got this dress for my 5-year wedding anniversary. I never, ever dress up; I have a 2 year old and a 9 month old, so I'm just starting to get my shape back. I picked this dress because it was sexy. I put it on and was shocked because I LOOKED SEXY! Wow! When my husband saw me that night he was speechless. I asked him what was wrong and he looked at me almost crying and said "I forgot how beautiful you are." I just want to thank Kiyonna for helping me have a wonderful anniversary!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Perfect, 2.20.2013
Reviewer: Heidi (Cleveland, Ohio)

I actually bought this dress for my December wedding and it was perfect. The fit was true to size and the style was very flattering. I honestly don't think there was one picture where I didn't look at least one size smaller than I actually am!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Oh Baby!, 2.20.2013
Reviewer: Deb (Homosassa, FL)

I received this dress today and my boyfriend exclaimed "Oh Baby!" the minute he saw it on me. That's endorsement enough for me! I am typically Kiyonna size 0x, but I ordered this in 1x based on the reviews. The top is a little big for my 38D bust, but I can work with that. I definitely needed the extra room for the lace sleeves to fit my large arms. This dress is super flattering on my triangle shape as I am 5'3" and weigh 195. I can't wait to turn heads when I wear it to an art gallery cocktail event.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Super Sexy!, 2.20.2013
Reviewer: Kim F. (Columbus, Ohio)

I purchased this dress for my company's annual holiday party. I have never received more compliments on my appearance. My husband loved me in the dress and I felt wonderful all evening. I highly recommend the dress, but definitely suggest ordering a size up because it runs small. I am a size 16 and would not normally order a 2x, but thank goodness I did because it fit like a glove.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Dangerous Curves Ahead!, 2.1.2013
Reviewer: Rita Collen (Racine, WI)

The design and cut of this dress is brilliant! I'm a "rectangle-shaped" girl with a curvy bust, along with a waist and hips that are around the same measurement as my bustline. This makes it difficult to achieve the curvy hourglass silhouette I'd like to have. The color blocking and cut of this dress creates a beautiful visual line that gives the appearance of drop-dead gorgeous curves that look and feel great, plus the illusion of a more shapely waistline. I love that this dress has sheer 3/4-length sleeves, allowing a little arm coverage without looking matronly. I'm usually between 1X and 2X in Kiyonna dresses and needed the larger size for this one to get a more comfortable fit in the shoulders. Prepare to receive compliments in this dress!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Sexy!!, 12.8.2012
Reviewer: Cindy B (Tampa, Fl.)

I ordered this dress one size larger based on reviews. It does run slightly smaller. Other than that, it's perfect! It is gorgeous! My new favorite dress. I bought this for my company Christmas party and a week later I am still receiving compliments. The color is so pretty and the ruching is so flattering! It hides my belly bumps. The illusion panels gave the look of killer curves! If you want to look sexy and feel beautiful, this is the dress you want!

 

3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Beautiful dress - sizing way off, 11.16.2012
Reviewer: Cathy (Fort McMurray, Alberta)

I ordered a 1x according to the size chart shown and it didn't go near me. One of my co-workers tried it on and she is a size 11, not even close to a 1x, and it was snug on her. I love this dress so much; I was so excited to receive it and utterly disappointed and sad when I realized how small it was, even with the stretchy material.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 awesome dress, 11.2.2012
Reviewer: Sabrina (Chicago, IL)

This is one of the cutest dresses I've ever ordered online. I typically avoid dresses like this because they look too tight and make my stomach look big, but not this one! It layers perfectly to avoid making your stomach appear as if it's bulging and the black lace in the back adds a sexy look to it. Perfect dress! I can't wait to wear it out.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 VALENTINA MAGIC, 10.7.2012
Reviewer: MONA (SYDNEY, NSW)

I WAS REALLY HESITANT TO BUY THIS DRESS ONLINE AS PREVIOUS ONLINE SHOPPING HAS LEFT ME GREATLY DISAPPOINTED, ESPECIALLY IN THE SIZING DEPARTMENT. I LOVED THIS DRESS, TOOK THE PLUNGE, AND BOUGHT IT USING THE MEASUREMENTS ON THE SITE TO SELECT MY SIZE. I CAN TELL YOU THAT THOSE MEASUREMENTS ARE TRUE TO SIZE WHEN PURCHASING A DRESS THAT IS MADE FROM A STRETCHY FABRIC, IF NOT, GO A SIZE UP. ANYWAY BACK TO THE VALENTINA MAGIC DRESS; IT WAS A SENSATION! I RECEIVED SO MANY COMPLIMENTS AND IT LOOKED ABSOLUTELY SEXY AND STUNNING ON ME. THANK YOU KIYONNA; NOW I CAN ADD YOUR SITE TO MY FAVOURITES FOR PLUS SIZE CLOTHING THAT ACTUALLY FIT AND ARE TRUE TO SIZE.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 XOXOXO!!!, 9.13.2012
Reviewer: Angela (Memphis, TN)

All I have to say is wow! This is a very sexy dress and I absolutely LOVE the burgundy color. I wish Kiyonna would come out with more dresses in this color. Until now, the Betsey Ruched dress was my fave. Whoever designed the colors on this dress is so clever because it seriously compliments my shape. I'm already an hour glass shape and this dress enhances the good and tones down the bad. I love the sleeve length and the sweet heart cut neckline has already been my favorite. One tip though: I always order one size up in these very form fitting dresses. I believe it makes the dress more flattering and comfortable! I keep saying that I have enough dresses, but as long as Kiyonna keeps cranking out good ones like this one, having too many won't be possible! This dress gets Kiyonna a standing ovation from me!!!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Too Hot to Handle, 8.2.2012
Reviewer: Laura (Owings, MD)

I bought this dress for a very special anniversary dinner. The husband was blown away. This dress makes you look curvy with or without smoothing underwear. Super comfortable, soft jersey fabric, and true to size. The blue is beautiful and classic. I will be wearing this to another posh dinner, I just have to buy a new pair of shoes instead of a new outfit! I turned heads at the Ritz Carlton... which doesn't happen very often. Thank you Kiyonna.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 I Feel Pretty (and Sexy), 7.27.2012
Reviewer: Roberta C (Nashua, NH)

This dress fits true to size and looks amazing on. Because of the illusion effect, I look about 20 pounds smaller than I am. I lost over 100 pounds and got a tummy tuck, so I have trouble finding a dress with sleeves that fit in both my (flabby) arms and flat stomach, but this is the dress. The lace on the arms and back of the dress stretches nicely and gives your whole body a sexy hug. I ordered the burgundy/black and the burgundy is a nice, rich color. Love it!!
