Reviews

The dress fits BEAUTIFULLY! I

"The dress fits BEAUTIFULLY! I am currently losing weight and ordered a bit smaller. It is quite forgiving in the midsection with the gather at the side. It makes me feel gorgeous"

Elizabeth V. (5/5)

"This dress received compliments but the amount of glitter this dress sheds is unacceptable. I had glitter everywhere and I mean everywhere. . . on my person, in my house and my car."

Geraldine (1/5)

Nice quality

"Beautiful gown with understated shimmer in the fabric, nice style. But when will designers of plus size dress clothing make sleeves that actually fit plus size arms? Trying a size larger, but not sure one size up will be adequate."

Zina R. (4/5)

Very flattering but glitter!!!

"I really lived the cut & fit of this dress. I’m 5’2”, 180lbs and everything looked and felt great. I o had to have a few inches taken off the bottom but I have to do that for all full length dresses. I only deducted a star because I was literally a waking glitter bomb! Everything and everyone I touched was covered in glitter. Chairs, tablecloths, napkins, people…all coated in red glitter."

LB (4/5)

So many compliments- I love this dress!

"I put this dress on, and immediately said "This is A KEEPER!". It is so pretty, drapes beautifully. I got so many compliments on it and felt gorgeous the night I wore it!"

"Not only beautiful but super comfortable. Very pleased."

Amanda C. (5/5)

Lovely dress - two time buyer!

"I bought the navy dress last year, and bought the black one this year for a black and white gala! Loads of compliments both years! The fabric of the dress is a nice weight that does not overheat and drapes beautifully, and the design is flattering for my very plus-size figure. I wore both dresses with Tieks flats, so they were a smidge long on me (5'6"ish) but not to the point that it prevented me from walking. Might be back for the red one next year . . . 🤔"

Q&A

i ordered this gown. it’s beautiful and flattering. any tips on how to get the glitter off that is falling all over the place i love the sparkle of this gown but the glitter falls everywhere. thanks
Thank you so much for your question, Kerri. We’re so glad you love the fit and look of the gown. You’re not wrong, this particular style does shed more sparkle than we’d like, which is why we’ve paused production and are actively re-fabricating it. In the meantime, gently releasing any loose glitter before wearing (we recommend doing this outdoors) can help minimize shedding. Our customers love this design - just not the glitter bomb 😉 and we truly appreciate you calling this out. We’ll be reaching out via email as we’d love to make you a new one.
How glittery is this dress? I'm going to a black tie wedding that starts at 4:30 and I don't want to be too glittery for the occasion.
This dress does have quite a bit of sparkle - it catches the light beautifully and will definitely stand out in a crowd. If you’d prefer something a little more understated for your 4:30 black-tie wedding, we’d recommend our Evening Romance Gown. It has the same elegant silhouette but without the glitter and comes in Black and Magenta. Another gorgeous option with plenty of drama (but no glitter) is the Veronica Ruffled Evening Gown. Both are stunning choices for an elegant, timeless look.
Hi, there. Is the Silver Starlight color black or a dark gray? I need a black dress for a choir concert.
Hi Susan, The Romanced by Moonlight Silver Starlight is black but the glitter is silver-toned. Hope this helps you make your decision on the purchase for your choir concert. Take care, Kiyonna Customer Service
Love this style! Can you make a non-glitter version? This would be fantastic.
Hi there, We are making a non-glitter gown just like this one in the Fall. Should be available in August. It's going to be called the Evening Romance Gown and will be available in three colors. Hunter Green, Black Noir and Magenta. Keep an eye out :-) Take care, Kiyonna Customer Service
What is the length of size 0X?
Hi Jess! Thank you for reaching out. From the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem on the 0x is 60 3/8". Hope that helps!.
Will this dress come in purple or plum again?? Romanced by Moonlight Gown
The Romanced by Moonlight Gown is not available in the plum/purple colorway at this time. Check back in the coming months as we might decide to reproduce it for fall-winter.
Does this dress run generous or TTS? I think I need a 1X in the bust, but you do not have it in midnight star. Trying to decide if I should size up or down.
Hi there, the Romanced by Moonlight Gown is a gorgeous gown. it has a nice stretch to it and is very true to size. If you are a 1X (14-16) I would stick with that option. Please reach out to us on chat for size and availability options.
is this dress nice enough for the Mother of the Groom wedding dress? I would love to feel comfortable and beautiful at the same time
Hi Geneva! Yes, absolutely! The Romanced By Moonlight would be perfect for the mother of the groom. There are no buttons or zippers on our garments, so everything is pull over style. We have a good amount of stretch in all of our merchandise for this reason. This dress is very comfortable!
