グレッチェン オクトーバーフェスト ディアンドル コスチューム

The costume was perfect and I got so many compliments. I ordered the Large first after reading customer reviews that said it ran big. They must has mis packaged a medium because I couldnt zip it closed on my chest. Returned it for an X-Large and it was so loose I could pull it on and off without opening the zipper. It was too long waisted on me in the XL, but since the apron actually has strings, I was able to tuck and hide about 4 inches of excess length. I made a quick petticoat out of islet curtain panels and it puffed out the costumes skirt with a more authentic German look than the tulle slips would have. Everyone loved the whole costume. It was adorable after a few alterations.

I purchased the large, after reading the reviews...however, a medium would've been just fine. I'm about 5'5", 135lbs, and it was a little big, but, it's forgiving in the same sense, with 2 tie-ribbons, one that is a halter tie around the neck, and the other tying around the waste, in the back, in addition to the cross-weave "corset" tie, which can be adjusted as needed. It was a big hit, and did come with the stockings, as I'm not sure it stated that when I ordered. Great costume!

1. Sizing: based on reading their product description, I would have leaned towards the extra small. However, based on all the reviews, I bought a small. The skirt is perfect length with the small. Its supposed to be short. However the extra small would have fit me better around my bust/waist. It feels looser than it should around my waist and the top just feels really big and baggy for my bust. I wouldve been fine going with an extra small and dealing with the shortness (just wear spanks underneath). For reference, I am 5 ft 5, 32A bust, 26 inch waist and 110-115 pounds (depends on the day). I think the people who say size up probably have bigger busts than me and/maybe the shortness of the dress. If I was even a B, it might help a little but it makes me feel like my boobs look even smaller. Only reason this is getting 4 stars is because I am not completely in love with the fit of the outfit. Overall, definitely worth it for the price and would buy it again. My boyfriend went to Octoberfest so he owns an expensive, fancy costume. He wanted me to buy one to match him for Halloween so that he gets the most use out of his outfit lol. 2. A girl posted she bought this exact petticoat a few reviews before me (pretty blonde with bf .. she posted pics). I took pics with both the petticoat and without so you guys could get an idea of length. It makes the outfit a little longer which I know some people may prefer. The poofiness is cute. The petticoat is one size fits all which I was not completely in love with. I rolled up the petticoat once because it was a little long on me. I might try to do some DIY outfit adjustments to try and make the waist and bust smaller? Might be too much work. Also excuse my messy apartment

Fun costume to wear with my husband ( who was a very good sport ;) for a Point beer run/ fest. Also ordered the "Be Wicked Women's Kate 12 Inch 2-Layer Petticoat " which was perfect.

I thought this was super cute. It was a little long in the torso. Im 52. I was wearing this in a large. Great costume for the $. I wore plain socks instead of the ones that came with it. I would recommend this.
