Adrianna Papell Women's Long Beaded V-Neck Dress with Cap Sleeves and Waistband

Bought sz 12 in nude. I typically wear an 8 (snugly but comfortably) in AP and knew I needed to size up in this one because of the waistband… but the 10 was $300 and the 12 was $115, so 12 it was, LOL… and it fit wonderfully! Just a bit more room than I needed, though you can’t tell by looking at me when I’m wearing it, and I think the 10 might have been too snug in the waistband anyway. Some medium heels will keep it just barely skimming the floor on my 5’7”. It has already had a couple beads and sequins come loose, but I knew that would likely happen. Can’t wait to wear it to my husband’s work gala!

Generally I am size 8 but I had returned and ordered a size 10.

This was beautifully sewn and fit true to size. I'm 5 ft 7 inches and still had 2 inches more cloth that could have been trimmed. Great for formal occasions

It did not fit waist

This dress came to me damaged and smelling like laundry soap, so I am pretty confident that it was used which was a big bummer for such an expensive dress. Besides that, it is very beautiful, but doesn't fit me the way id like it to around the hips. I am wearing shapewear in the photo.

I got this dress in nude shade besides a similar one be in a blue gray shade from the same designer and I picked the second. This one is great and elegant, it fits very well in the hip area but is a bit loose around the chest and shoulders. Colors is beautiful and neutral, and it compliments all skin colors. Beading work is great and design is classy.

I believe I ordered the wrong size for me. But overall nice dress. Had to return. I ordered size 18 probably needed a 22.

This dress had zero shape and no waistline. Was very disappointed - and the color was much closer to purple than the picture shows. This dress might look great on a full figure or a tall, thicker figure but if you are slim, have a waistline or are under 5’5” this is too much dress.

I really love this dress. It looks expensive and elegant. The two things I don't like are the scratchy feeling under the arms and the zipper gets stuck half way up.

Beautiful well crafted beadwork. Heavy dress but able to move and dance! Had a formal dinner and dance. Lost “0” beads! Designer team made a complimentary style.

Purchased this dress to wear to son’s wedding. It looks beautiful, but when I received it it’s very heavy from the beads and sequences were falling off when I tried it on, the zipper is not the best and gets stuck. Found it to fit small.

Was dress shopping for a formal wedding, and I have tried Adrinna Papall dresses before and loved it was so happy that they are sold at Amazon for a reasonable price. The dress looks amazing, it fits a bit bigger although I don't have a normal size cause my bust is bigger and I have to normally switch between size 8 and 10. everything looked great, but it was too big for me so I had to return it. The colour is a not as bright as it shows in the picture but I taought it was real nude. If it fitted the way it should have I would have kept it for sure.

Cap sleeve structure might be uncomfortable for some. But give it a try 1 or 2 sizes up! I've tried on many Adrianna Papell dresses, for some reason this dress was 1 to 2 sizes smaller than the others. Also (even without it on) the zipper sticks pretty bad when it gets to the waist band. The beading is beautiful, A.P. does make great dresses.
