bond dress

Usually I’m an 8 and sized down to a 4 on this dress.

I wear a size 2 as 5'4, measurements are around 31/32 - 25/26.5 - 36.5-37. The dress fit quite loosely and was unflattering.

Super flattering! Slightly big in the neck area

I ordered the Bond dress in navy (with white pinstripes) for my convocation, as I sought an elegant dress that looked professional yet chic. This dress exceeded my expectations! The exterior material of the dress is the perfect amount of thickness, while the interior is a sleek and smooth material. While waiting for my ceremony to start, I spent quite a bit of time around campus taking photos. Mind you, the day it was held was a sunny and warm day, yet I did not feel hot while wearing this dress! Even inside the theatre whilst wearing my gown, I did not overheat in this dress. It’s a suitable dress to wear, even in a warm environment. In terms of the fit, the Bond dress is quite flattering. The A-line design ensures that your waist is snatched, while the length is appropriate for professional events. The best part about this dress is that it’s so versatile - you can dress it up with a pair of kitten slingback heels like I did, or you could even wear it with ankle socks and dunks.

I love the style of the neckline and how the skirt fell but I had to get the waist taken in because it was a little boxy. The material is very high quality as well.

I'm 5'1", my measurements are 32AA-24-33hips and I weigh 92 LBS. The 00 fits amazing. Since I am small and petite I was worried the dress would be too long, but it's about 1-1.5 (maybe 2) inches above the top of my knee caps. Long enough to wear to work but still short enough to my liking. I am an elementary school teacher and I will wear this to work with my nike dunk lows and then a plain or striped button up underneath the dress. Very work appropriate, but still flattering and cute! I read another review where someone said they were a size 6 but had to size down to a 00, I'm not sure how that is possible because this dress fits like a glove, unless they had serious sizing issues a while ago or something. If you aren't sure about your size, put your measurements in and it will let you know. I bought this dress in the navy stripe, the medium gray, and white in the reessential fabric. I will get black in the same fabric, and then a couple more in the wool fabric. This is my first purchase from Aritizia and I'm very impressed.

This is the first thing I’ve ever ordered from this website and if every item they sell fits this well I’ll be a customer for life.
I purchased the navy pinstriped version and it’s so cute and classy, perfect for an office setting & is just the right length to still be kinda sexy. I think i might have to buy every single color now.

I ordered this dress and was really disappointed. It was an akward fit and perhaps a bit too long. I have an athletic body type and I think that this dress would better fit taller and slender body type. The material is nice but overall was not for me.

Very flattering fit and shape

I have this dress in grey and black, and it is the perfect dress for the office. I’m 5’1” and the length fits a couple of inches above my knee abs the dress is fitted but not tight. I can also dress it up or down with different layers and shoes.

I got the white for my college graduation and it was the perfect spring dress to celebrate my milestone day! I plan to wear this through the summer with heels, flats or sneakers. This dress is so flattering and fits really well.

This dress is extremely flattering and work appropriate! However, I recommend staying true to size as there is no stretch to this dress. The other reviews have stated to size down and when I did, it was too snug.

Super cute staple dress that can be worn to work or casually with sneakers. Dress for a capsule wardrobe.

Liner is key. POCKETS! It’s classy but not frumpy with the mini length. Bought it in another color immediately. Good for work with flats or date night with a pair of cool heels

I read the reviews and ordered a size 6 instead of an 8 or a 10. It was super tight and I would’ve been better off going with my regular size. The dress is lined and tailored brilliantly with an obvious A-line (very flattering) . Will be exchanging for a 10 as there is no stretch in the fabric and I’d like to wear it for an 8-hour workday.

The quality and the craftsmanship is very nice, but beware that this dress runs extremely large. I’m usually a size 4 in most Aritzia clothes but I had to get a size 0!

This dress is really cute and good quality. Definitely work appropriate. But it runs really large and didn't hug my waist at all.

For reference, I am 5’4” and my measurements are 44, 30, 40 for bust, waist, and hips, respectively, in inches. I bought a size 12.

This dress is beautiful and well made. The fabric and extra lining on the inside are great and I love the pockets. Unfortunately, this dress was not made for anyone with any curves. I’m usually a size 10 or 30” waist in jeans and bottoms, but I have a large bust (34I) so I sized up. I’m used to sizing up and expected the dress to be looser outside of the bust. Besides my bust, I am not really any curvier than “normal” and I follow the waist and hips of the size chart for a 10 pretty much to a T. However, even when sizing up to a 12, the dress was very fitted around the hips and butt, which caused some unusual bunching around the hip as well.

Furthermore, although the bust area actually did zipper around my chest (yay!) the armpit holes were SO BIG! I could not wear any sort of bra without it showing 1-2 inches of my bra fabric in the front of the armpit holes, which kind of makes this dress impossible to wear with a bra. This means it basically doesn’t work for anyone who needs support in that area since the dress has no bust support itself. It also means there is a ton of side boobage that can be seen. Of course, besides the bust and hip, the waist was expectedly loose, and I had 1-2 inches of extra fabric there.

This dress is also definitely made for somebody who is at least 5’7” as it was almost at my knees and the neckline and shoulder area were too big and kept gaping.

In conclusion, this dress was made for a very specific body type, and this body type is taller and not curvy at all. If you are tall and not very curvy, I believe this dress will fit great for you. I do wish that for the larger sizes, the measurements reflected the curves that most mid-sized women have. I also wish that this dress came in petite sizes, since it was a bit long on me, and in a larger size range, for anyone who is bigger than mid-sized.

Great dress! Like the fit!

I love this dress with flats and a thin sweater over my Shoulder. It is such a cute and classy look

I love the high neckline and flare of the dress! Unique take on a classic LBD.

Good quality material - thick and lined. Unfortunately did not workout for me because the neck wouldn't lay flat since I'm petite. Otherwise would've been the perfect dress for work.

Good sturdy fabric, doesn’t seem like it will pill or need to be steamed with every wear. Pockets are great and are intentionally in line with structure of the dress! Il

This would be a great work dress but wish it wasn't so very short! There's a good hem to let out but it only adds, at most, an inch. My usual size 0 fit well with room to spare except for the length. It's very structured and holds its shape well otherwise and the colour is great.
