Dress for Wedding
Feb 6, 2020 | Posted By Dawn from Park Ridge, NJ United States
I receive this beautiful dress on sale in Royal Blue. I have been longing for this dress in any color since I first saw it in the catalog. As soon as it went on sale, I jumped on the sale and fortunately it was still in stock. I received the dress in record time and it fits perfectly!!!! The Butterfly skirt I will be interested in trying it on for the spring.... The other dress is backordered and will be in soon. I love their products, they are made well. They come fast and I always receive multiple compliments.
love this dress!

False advertising
Jan 10, 2020 | Posted By Rachel G from Auburn, WA United States
I bought the blue in 2x. Not only is it not the vibrant blue color advertised, the lace is completely wrong and looks like a chinese knockoff of the advertising picture. I've been wanting this dress for years, and I am incredibly disappointed, and will be returning it.
Helpful service
May 5, 2019 | Posted By Ruth E Smith from Tumwater, WA United States
I was quite pleased with the phone assistance, not to mention prompt and accurate resolution of my whole order. My measurements were spread across the size chart, so I ordered two dresses in two sizes, certain that one would fit. They were both way too big. As I was beginning to be pressed for time, the customer service person was very helpful in keeping the account straight and in getting out my second order of two dresses - it arrived within 3 days. Amazingly, the smallest one fit (yay!!!). And it fit perfectly! It feels nice - no harsh seams or irritating zipper heads, and I LOVE the color (blue).
Beautiful and fun dress
Feb 22, 2019 | Posted By Doug Rose from Ruston, LA United States
I bought this for my daughter-in-law for her birthday. She had seen the catalog at our house and admired the dress. She was surprised and delighted to receive it. She said she will wear it on a special occasion. It looked cute on her. I may buy her the other two colors "just for fun" as I really liked the green and everyone needs a little red dress to wear at a funeral for "THAT" person!

I really, really love the dress. the color blue is also beautiful. But what I like the most is the material because, it is really soft and comfortable on the body. I highly reccomend it. Thank you very much.

Beautiful dress and wish it fit, but my bust is not large enough to fill out the top. Should have listed to other reviews that had the same issue.

I've always been impressed with the quality of Gaelsong products until this dress. Like everyone, I couldn't wait for it to arrive. I ordered blue. Three complaints: In order for the color to be bright as in the pictures, you need very bright lights or sunshine. The material is very thin and clingy like a dance costume would be perhaps. The fabric has a noxious odor. Overall the quality was very disappointing despite my wanting it not to be. I'll be returning or exchanging this for something else.

Very Pretty
Dec 26, 2016 | Posted By Tamara from San Diego, CA United States
I bought this for a Christmas party and it is just lovely. Very comfortable and flattering. My only issue was that it ran large through the bust so I needed a few alterations. I probably could have sized down and it would have still fit well. I saw that some reviewers didn't like the stretch fabric but I think this is an excellent feature - it doesn't detract from the overall attractiveness of the dress and gives some wiggle room in case you gain or lose a few pounds between wearings. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase.
Loved it!
Dec 12, 2016 | Posted By Denise from Walkerton, VA United States
I purchased the blue and loved it. Wore it to a Christmas party. I took the advice of others on size. I wear a 10/12. Ordered the medium and it was just right. I am a triple D up top. The fit was good but i did have some cleavage showing. Nothing embarrasing. Very pleased with the fit and comfort. Oh and i am 5'2' and it hung a bit below the knee.
Just what I wanted
Dec 2, 2016 | Posted By Kat from Glassboro, NJ United States
I bought this dress in green and I love it. First I should say that this is a knit green dress with a sheer black overlay with green embroidery. As such, there is a lot of stretch in the fabric, and you might want to order a size smaller than usual. That being said, I got a lot of compliments on the color. The green is vibrant enough even through the black overlay, and the embroidery adds a nice finishing touch. This is also a side zip, so it's easy to zip myself. It is very comfortable on, and it's versatile enough to wear to a wedding, or simply out for a nice dinner.

This is my first purchase from Gaelsong. The blue dress was beautiful. Fit well, although it is designed for women with a large bust, so I will have to take it in a tad. Not hard. I received so many compliments when wearing out and about, even from strangers at the store. Loved it. Plan to purchase more!

Royal Blue
Jan 3, 2016 | Posted By Elizabeth from Detroit, MI United States
The royal blue dress was rich in color with unique style. However, the quality was poor and not worth the cost of the dress. I ordered it in December and returned it within two days ( still waiting on payment to be returned to my charge card. Overall, the fit was just as expected. If it goes on sale, I will buy if for my upcoming Caribbean cruise-2016!
Green Party Dress
Dec 30, 2015 | Posted By Julia Kappenman from Lincoln, NE United States
I loved it! Due to the use of the single knit under the black sheer with lace, it has a nice stretchy quality allowing it to fit a little looser yet still hang nicely. I recommend it highly.

Perfect fit. I wish the interior cloth to be silky. I think the dress is a little expensive for the quality of the interior cloth and the outside part would be better in green also.

I ordered the festive dress in green. The first one I received I had to send back due to a tear in the overlay. Gaelsong was great and got my replacement back to me in record time, the dress is beautiful, fits well and was in time for me to wear to my nephews wedding.
Love the dress

I want to get it in blue too. It is a little large, but better to have some extra room then being too tight which I find from other clothing websites.

Pretty in the picture, but not in life. Fabric is very thin and clingy, and lace did not sit well. Very disappointing.
Many compliments
Dec 12, 2014 | Posted By hibrau from Windsor, CA United States
I wore the green dress to my husband's office Christmas party. It's a very fancy affair (the dress could have been fancier if it were satin, as it looks in the catalog, instead of jersey underneath). I dressed it up with jewelry and a fancy up-do. I got so many compliments, especially on the color. It's so hard to find a green dress for Christmas--this was perfect. My only complaint is that the bra I wanted to wear showed at the armhole, so it does require a demi bra. Can't wait to wear this dress again.

Beautiful and Comfortable!
Nov 17, 2014 | Posted By DaisyJane from Spokane, WA United States
I purchased this dress for a formal event. I danced in it for hours, sat comfortably, and never needed to adjust or tug. It is a beautiful shade of deep green, and the embellishments gleam in the light. It runs true to size- I could have gone with an XL if I had wanted a more snug bodice, but I got the 1X for comfort, and it was fine. Also, the customer service was exceptional. They actually saved us money on the shipping and were great to deal with. Thank you!

lovely green dress
Aug 17, 2014 | Posted By Emily Diane Pearce from Satellite Beach, FL United States
I really like the new festive green dress, but I kind of wish you had a more expensive version made with a lining of green taffeta instead of the soft knit since it appears to be some kind of a costume, made for dancing.....Thanks so much for it anyway I am sure I will order more of them for my friend and I. Possibly for other members of my family also.
Poor quality and fit
Jul 28, 2014 | Posted By Lindsey from MI United States
Do NOT under any circumstances follow the sizing chart. The material and cut of this dress is such that you need to order down at lease one size. If you order according to your bust size it will be so big under the arms that pretty much everything is exposed. I'm a 38C with a 42" bust, my proportions are fairly normal, there's no reason this dress should have fit so badly. The quality of the material was also much lower than expected for a dress in this price range, cheap, flimsy, frayed ends, snags easily etc. I did not look nice enough to wear to a wedding, which it why I purchased it. Based on the pictures and reviews, I thought I was going to love this dress, it was a huge disappointment. I had the pleasure of paying for UPS 3 day select only to have to run out and buy a dress at the last minute anyway, then I got to pay for return shipping. I've been a Gaelsong customer since the 90's. This is the first return, but it left me feeling pretty sour.

Such a disappointment. I have been wanting to order this dress in green for years and finally did. I should have listened to the reviews. Looks nice in the catalog but not when I got it. One side of the black overlay was actually sewn crooked and was obvious because of the bunching. I can't believe this was sent to me in this condition- there must be no quality control at Gaelsong. The fit was bad, the top was too big and it just looked cheap. I returned it the next day.
Better Than I Imagined
May 11, 2014 | Posted By Morgan Marie Jordan from Grants Pass, OR United States
I'm not young and when my daughter told me about this dress I was sure it would not look right on me. But the formal wedding I needed it for was two months away and I had time to return it, plus my daughter is never wrong about style. So I ordered it and it is perfect. I had to buy a wrap to cover my old lady arms but it fit so well. I'm 5'3 and the small is just right. The measurements on the sizes chart left me wondering, however I used the bust size and it worked. The dress is not only beautiful, it is comfortable as well. The color is amazing and I will be able to dress this up or down and therefore wear it to many functions. Very happy.

Too bad!
Mar 20, 2014 | Posted By Paula from Colorado Spgs, CO United States
The dress looked so lovely in the catalog, and many of the reviews were good, so I ordered it in red. I was very disappointed in the quality and the color of the dress. The material is very cheap, and the color of the dress itself is not actually red. The red embroidery on the front clashes with the color of the dress. The dress also does not drape well, and looks like a cheap t-shirt when worn. I sent it back and exchanged it for the Flamenco Skirt in red, which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!!

This dress is very pretty. I purchased it in blue. I really like the way it turns from blue to black when you move you see the blue alot unlike some of the other comments I read. I bought it a size bigger then i normally wear and it fits fine I could have went with my size as I can put it on without unzipping it. Loose is good because I'm using it on a cruise and it will leave room to eat lots of goodies.

This dress is very pretty. It is a bit big but I believe the smaller size would be too small. I will have to have it tailored but as I am in the middle of a weight loss program, I believe this is my issue and not the manufacturer. I can't wait to wear this on my cruise in April!
Nice!

The only problem I have with this dress is it is a bit too big on me even though I ordered it in a Small. Besides that though this dress is beautiful and simply amazing.

I've wanted to get this dress for a long time, so when it went on sale this month I just had to have it. Emerald green is my favorite color and this dress is so elegant. The sizing is perfect (I a 5'2" and usually wear a 4 petite - the small fits perfectly). I am tempted to get it in the cobalt blue... maybe for spring!

I wore this dress for Christmas Eve this year and it was stunning. I ordered the Large and it fit me comfortably, but it is a little low in the front. I got a lot of compliments in this dress and look forward to wearing it for other occasions. I loved this dress so much that I ordered it in red and will eventually get the blue one as well.
Lovely!

Gorgeous dress! It runs a wee big, so if you're in between sizes, get the smaller size! I took that advice from others reviews and I'm glad I did.. It's sooo beautiful and very modest :).. However, It's a little too big in the chest... I'll just have to get me an extra padded bra! LOL.
RUNS LARGE!!!
Dec 17, 2013 | Posted By Christa from North Hollywood, CA United States
I have been wanting this dress in green for about 3 years now, but it's so pricey. I kept hoping it would go on sale, but I finally decided to treat myself and ordered the smallest size offered (a small. My face fell as soon as I pulled it out of the packaging. I could immediately see that this is no small. It's a 6/8 (medium), easily. I'm 5'1", 34A/B bust, and around a 27 or 28 inch waist. I didn't even need to unzip the dress to get into it, and everything just hung on me. I could fit a fist in both sides at the bust and waist, and the straps were definitely made for a taller person. But I've been lusting after it for so long, and I paid quite a chunk of change for it, so I took it to the lady who usually does my alterations. She said I'd have to take it in to an actual tailor, and that it would be more expensive. I found a tailor and took it in during lunch today--they can make all the alterations, which includes bringing the straps up and getting rid of several inches off the sides. But it's an additional $50. I'm paying it, of course. It's too pretty not to, but I'm pretty disappointed. It's just a jersey knit dress underneath the netting, so I'm not quite sure why the dress is $98. It IS beautiful, however, and is incredibly flattering when it fits. I see it goes up to an XXXL here; perhaps Gaelsong might want to think about also offering true small and extra small sizes? I'm not an XXS, but the way they have this dress labelled, that's exactly what I'd need to order.
very disappointed!
Dec 12, 2013 | Posted By Dianne Beal from North Stonington, CT United States
I received this dress as a gift from my mom - she was so excited as it looked lovely in the picture. When I received it however I couldn't believe how cheaply made and flimsy the material. It was simply awful. We were both quite disappointed and I couldn't wait to send it back. I expected much better quality for the price.

Much too large, color dulled
Nov 29, 2013 | Posted By Kate Kenney from New York City, NY United States
This dress which is so lovely in the catalogue is unfortunately different when it isn't under the photography light shot for the promotional picture. The color is so dulled by the black overlay that you get just a hint of the color, rather than a muted tone of it. Still very attractive, but different than what I was expecting based on the picture. Regardless, I had to send it back as the small is much larger than any small size I have run across-it hung loosely and limply and simply wasn't made to fit anyone who has a petite or smaller frame. I'm an accomplished seamstress, and because of the zipper placement an alteration to make it even remotely wearable would be incredibly difficult, and therefore I determined it couldn't be made to fit. Unfortunate, and disappointing. I also had the many black threads on the lace trim I read about in other reviews.

Festive Green Dress
May 10, 2013 | Posted By Nancy S. in Tucson from Tucson, AZ United States
I purchased this dress for an important event I attended last Friday (May 3rd, 2013). The dress fit well and I received a number of compliments on the color. However, when I washed the garment and followed - to the letter - its care instructions (hand wash only), I was very disappointed. The green dye had a tremendous discharge and migrated to the label in the garment itself. I teach textiles at the college level, so I know a thing or two about dye issues. Wonder how much testing was done prior to selling this garment? The dress does not look as good now and I probably won't wear to another special event again. I would like to return for a replacement and will DRY CLEAN the dress the next time.

Love it! The color is gorgeous and it fits nicely :)
Poor quality and runs large, too
Apr 26, 2013 | Posted By fluffysquirrel from sicklerville, NJ United States
Beautiful, but fragile:( The care instructions should not have offered the option to hand wash---the embroidery at the hem all started coming off. Some of it came loose at the waist, too. The reason I washed it was because of the odd smell of the dress when I opened the package; thought I could freshen it up. Falling apart all over the place and the occasion I planned to wear it for is in less than 2 weeks. There is no one in customer service on the weekends which adds to my sadness. Do not wash under any circumstances. Poorly made:( It's a shame because it is a beautiful dress.
Perfect Sizing
Apr 17, 2013 | Posted By Alyssa from AZ United States
I ordered this Festive Dress in royal blue, size medium. I was debating whether to pick the large or medium because on the sizing chart I am 34 waist and 43 hip, but accurately a 36 bust. I went with the "M" and it fits perfect. The "L" would have probably been a little too loose. The dress is not restricting or scratchy at all; you are able to move your arms very freely. I am 5'8" and the length of the dress for me in "M" is tea-length, meaning that its length is just under the bottom of my knee cap. The netting makes the blue appear very dark and makes the dress look like it is almost on the verge of changing to a dark sort of purpley blue; however, when you lift the netting up, you can definitely see that the fabric underneath is royal blue. The dress feels a little weighty but that is because it is a cottony material. It lays very nicely and hugs your torso under your bust. Didn't have any problems with the company and arrived quickly.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the dress. I am thinking of ordering the blue one. Fits like a glove. I was worried when I read the other reviews about being a tad bit large but I am a little busty so it was perfect!
Festive green dress

I LOVE this dress. I am not a "dress" person, but I did love this one. Reading reviews I ordered a 1X and it fit, but I thought it may be a bit snug. I called and asked customer service to send me a 2x and it arrived in plenty of time for my event. Great service, and this is a great comfy dress. Order a size smaller than usual. It does run a little big. I sent the 2X back.

REALLY wish it was an actual "small". It's more of a medium and will be difficult to alter. Not as well made as it appears in the catalog.
love it!

i ordered the festive green dress for my upcoming wedding. it arrived very quickly and the quality of it is amazing! i didnt expect something so nice for that low of a price. i usually take a medium but the size small fit me perfectly.
Runs big, not as red as pic, but easy care dress

I read all the reviews very carefully before ordering this dress. I went with the red since the blue was sold out. (I was torn between both so just went with one not being available to make up my mind.) The red isn't as red as what's shown online or in the catalog. The black mesh over it really tones it down. It also does run larger to size than more true to size, which is not such a bad thing. Just something to be aware of. It'll be a perfect dressier dress to take on travels, particularly cruises, for me. All in all it's not a bad buy, and it'll be easy care and maintenance, something that's important to me.
Well worth it

I ordered this in the royal blue color. It is beautiful-I'm a size 8 and ordered a small and it was true to size. Thinking of ordering in the other colors!
fast shipping!

I was stunned by how quickly my item arrived-only 2 days after ordering and I live in a very rural area! My daughter loves the dress. It is beautiful.

Gave the green dress to our daughter as an early present, and she loves it. It fits great she says it feels wonderful, a great length, just perfect. So glad I ordered it. Great, great, great! I might add she is a size 1.
Lovely dress

This dress is lovely and also comfortable. It may be hard to see in the photo, but there is an underlayer of soft jersey fabric in green (or red or blue) with an overlayer of black tulle.
Nice dress, vivid color, not a perfect fit

This dress looks very festive, however it feels one size too large. I am still keeping it, I guess I can survive a loose fit. Good quality and very flattering unusual vivid color.
Beautiful

I ordered this for my son's wedding, in green. It's absolutely stunning. Delivery was nearly 2 weeks. I am between a large and extra large, I ordered an XL and it's a little big. There is a side zipper as well. If you are between sizes, I would go with the smaller. I have no time to make an exchange.
Beautiful Dress

This dress is quite pretty and is true to size. The only problem that I had was that on the lacey scrolling there was strings that I had to trim off. Other than that it is very comfortable and fits great.
Beautiful!

This dress was shipped SUPER fast... I got it within 4 days of ordering. It was the only "must have" on my daughers Birthday/Christmas list. It was worth the money for the speed of delivery and quality of the dress! I would definitely order from here again!
Wonderful

I bought this same dress in green last year. I love it so much I purchased it in red this year. My only complaint is that it is rather low cut.

This dress was what I expected. It fits beautifully and I know that I would order another item from you. This was purchased for a Christmas Tea that I attend each year. I can't wait to show it off. Thanks again.
Many, many compliments

True to size, comfortable, flattering and no armhole net-scratching.

Beautiful dress! Ordered it for my February wedding (2nd time around) and I'm thrilled with it. It's beautiful and makes me feel beautiful. Fabric's a little thin but I can live with that. Can't wait for February so I can wear it for the big day!
