• My parachute nylon dress

  
  By A1T792EPOMJ2YH on 2008-07-15
  This dress is an excellent costume quality gown.
  While this dress looks elegant..it photographs like a shiny nylon parachute.
  Pros: Elegant design, shipped super fast, added bonus..a matching shawl and a real high quality satin sash, and the company is very professional about handling concerns about their products.
  Cons: The dress is cheaply made (super cheap nylon taffeta material, no hook at the top of the bodice to secure the zipper), sized for a misses fit (not well suited for shorter people 5'4 and under), and the bodice has wire stays that stab you in the ribs when you sit.
  
  I actually like this dress enough to add my own additional hooks and adjustments to make it last longer.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

• Beautiful dress

  
  By AXGONT5NUHMBU on 2008-11-12
  This dress is very beautiful. I bought it for my daughters Military Ball and it will be perfect. I would recommend this dress to anyone. The only thing that could be better is a correct sizing. The dress comes smaller than the size indicated, so order the next size up. Otherwise, very worth it.
  
  

• Amazingly awesome dress

  
  By A10171R5O6W97P on 2008-03-28
  I bought the burgundy version for my Senior Prom. I absolutely love this dress. It looks even better in person. I recieved it in the mail very quickly, surprisingly actually. It's a gorgeous color, soft fabric, very form fitting dress. The size chart was very accurate for me. The ONLY problem I had with it was it was too long, I'm 5'2 so my mother has to trim a little bit of the bottom off. But I can't blame the company for my genes.
  
  

• Perfect

• Love It!!!
  By A1ICMMMUT5GHTQ on 2008-04-16
  This Dress is absolutly amazing. It has a corseted beck so even though it was a little big we just sucked it all up until it was perfect. I definatly feel like a princess in it.
  
  
• Great dress, lazy vendor
  By A11M4D57O08XT0 on 2008-04-12
  I bought this dress for my senior prom. The Ivory one. In the picture it has a black ribbon around the waiste. When i got it, it came with an ivory ribbon. I ordered it because i liked the contrast. I e-mailed and i e-mailed but no respond. It was rediculous. So i finally got fed up and called. They sent a new ribbon right away. The only problem was the ribbons are frayed on the ends. They do not sow them, so they can come unraveled.
  
  The dress is beautiful. It looks great! comes with straps and a wrap. I had to have to dress taken up because it was too long, but i am short. The size chart was perfect for me. It fits great. It doesnt slide down, and i can breath.
  
  I would totally recommend this dress.
  
  If you have any problems, however, do not bother to e-mail. The vendor will not respond. Just call.
  
  
• Very nice for the price
  By A2C8W20H6ZEEHS on 2008-03-30
  The picture of the dress is very accurate and it came with shoulder straps and an extra sash and wrap! Unfortunately I did have to return because my daughter told me the wrong size. Otherwise I would have definitely kept it!!
  
  
• If you're a tall woman you will LOVE this dress!
  By A2WA0Y4FNDT73N on 2009-07-19
  I ordered this dress in burgundy. I will use it as my wedding dress. I am a size 18, and stand at 6 feet tall, NOTHING I buy ever fits me right, except for this dress!!! I put it on right out of the box, and it fit me like it was made for me. I could not be happier. The fabric is lightweight, and comfortable to wear. I like how shiny it is, it seems to change color when it moves. If you are a big and tall woman looking for a beautiful gown, get this dress! You will feel like a goddess in it.
  
  
  
• Perfect!
  By A19AWEFOJ8HHO9 on 2008-05-04
  My daughter is very petite. We ordered this dress express shipping so that we'd be able to take it in and have it altered before her prom. No need. She tried it on, and with the shoes on, it fit like a glove, as though it was made for her. It was a very pretty dress, the price was great and she looked beautiful in it. I would definitely do business with this company again.
  
  
• Amazing Dress AND Amazing Customer Service!
  By A32W21LMDOB44B on 2008-05-04
  I received a frantic telephone call from my sister who had been looking all over the Washington DC Metropolitan area for weeks, without success, for the right dress for my niece's cotillion that was now 3 days away. My niece saw this dress on Amazon and fell in love. However, my sister had never ordered anything online and had spent countless hours the night before trying to order it, but kept getting to the same point where things just froze. She was running out of time so she called me (in Seattle)the next day. I placed the order and sent an email to Pacifiplex that the event was 3 days from now, so could they please expedite shipping as much as possible. THEY SHIPPED THE DRESS IMMEDIATELY AND IT ACTUALLY ARRIVED THE NEXT DAY! This white gown was even more beautiful than in the picture and fit like it was taylor-made for her. It was PERFECT! This company's great quality product, awesome customer service, super price and lightening fast shipping helped avert a potentially disastrous situation and allowed a very special young debutante and her family to make this "life moment" an extraordinarily memorable event. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
  
  
• Gorgeous dress
  By A385AB34VGLRXY on 2008-04-07
  The dresses arrived very quickly. They are absolutely gorgeous. This is my second purchase from pacific plex and both were great dresses and great transactions.
  
  
• Great dress for the price!
  By A3FKLF866TKNYQ on 2010-01-13
  I'm really impressed with the dress. I bought it for a mardi gras ball. I ordered it on a Sunday and with express shipping it got all the way from California to Louisiana by Tuesday! I was king of confused as to how it could fit in its box since the box was so tiny!
  
  Pros: I found mine to be on the long side which is great since I'm a taller woman. It is also great if you are flat chested, the dress looks good despite it. It is also really elegant looking. I bought a Large (I'm sort of in between Medium and Large) and originally it is really big on me, but once I tightened the laces it fit perfectly! It also comes with attatchable straps (that you have to sew on) and a sash. Fast shipping.
  
  Cons: The material is kind of thin which isn't great for cooler places or during the winter (but its great if you need a formal dress for summer time!). Also the loops for the black sash aren't very attractive. One of them broke about 5 seconds after I tried on the dress! But that isn't a big deal since I intend on cutting them completely off anyways.
  
  Overall the dress is great! But expect to get what you paid for. If all you need is a formal dress that is made like it only costs $90 then great! If you're looking for something REALLY fancy then I wouldn't recomend it. However, I like this dress enought to make the minor alterations to make it look better.
  
  
• Used as my wedding dress.
  By A32NZ49K7WT16S on 2009-07-06
  I haven't gotten married yet, so I haven't received feedback from a lot of people on the dress. When it arrived, I immediately tried it on, and it was too big. I'm about a size 16, and I ended up needing the 1X. Very flattering cut, made me looks smaller, not bigger! The material is gorgeous if you like shimmery shine. I ordered burgundy, and it almost seemed like an iridescent color somewhere between red and purple. I got rid of the sash because I thought that it dressed it down. Instead I added a few sequins here and there. The dress is somewhat cheaply made and some of the seams didn't align properly, but overall the price was right. I added a piece of lace to the top because I felt like it was a little low cut and I needed some extra coverage. Dealing with the company was simple. I needed to exchange the dress for another size and the transaction was completed quickly without any snags.
  
  
• Beautiful Dress - Excellent Price
  By A36Y4R54MNW5S1 on 2008-09-21
  Dress arrived to England very quickly and is everything I expected. This is not a very high quality dress but certainly looks the part unless you look very closely. The bodice type lace up back really means it fits perfectly. I feel like a princess ;-)
  
  
• You can't go wrong!!!

• Taffeta=Terrific!
  By A3QR5WO0V1S67H on 2008-07-09
  I needed a white or black, long length gown for a local gala I was being forced to attend. I went to EVERY dress shop in town and I couldn't find a single gown that either fit, was formal enough, or didn't follow the dress code requirements. I decided to give online a try, and this was the first dress I looked at, and it was perfect! I ordered it thinking that since I was ordering it online, it would arrive near the fifth day of the 3-5 day period, but surprisingly, it arrived on the 3rd day, in perfect condition! It was neatly packaged, and there was a matching satin wrap, which wasn't advertised, and it was definitely the perfect surprise! I measured myself before ordering, and I was a little worried about ordering the dress online because I couldn't try it on before spending the money, but when I emailed the company, they assured me that the dress could be exchanged or returned in the event that it didn't fit. I ended up ordering a small, even though I was in between a small and extra small. When it arrived, I tried it on, and it was a little loose, but the dress has a built-in corset, so it can be tightened or loosened to perfectly fit! I cannot thank you enough for making me look and feel so beautiful on my special night!
  
  
• WOW!
  By AMITZ23DEXZUL on 2008-05-19
  I ordered this dress for my daughter for her senior prom. I measured her according to the size chart. I was nervous about ordering over the internet but thought I would give it a try.
  I ordered it on Wednesday and it arrived on Thursday. When the box arrived, my daughter threw it on the couch and said "I thought this was gonna be my dress!" I told her to open the box and much to our surpise, it was her dress. The box was so small we couldn't believe the dress fit in it.
  This dress was absolutely beautiful! It fit perfect and nobody else was wearing a dress like it.
  I would highly recommend this dress.
  
  
  
• Fabulous dress
  By AYHAO4YIBBAF1 on 2008-05-18
  Love this dress. Perfect for a wedding or prom. Would definitely recommend this dress to a friend. I would suggest ordering a size up because i normally wear large and I bought an XL and it was an exact fit for me.

  Absolutely beautiful dress. The Shipment came in 3 days and I was really impressed with it when I got it out of the package. I thought I might have had to by a petticoat but it comes exactly the way it's supposed to, fluff and all. It comes with straps and a shawl just like the people who've also purchased this dress have said.
  
  It trims the waist too to give a thinner appearance.
  
  Stunning! I'm completely happy with this dress!
  
  
• Great item!

• Speedy shipping, poor quality dress.
  By A1AXLODO8ERGKD on 2008-08-26
  I bought this dress for my wedding which was will be an informal destination wedding in Barbados. The seller, ships quickly and very efficiently. I received my dress in about two days. However, the dress itself is of a very poor quality. I agree with another reviewer, it looks like a holloween costume. The design is ok and it fits well but the taffeta was the cheapest looking taffeta I had ever seen. When I got the dress I thought that it was packaged on the wrong side so that I assumed that the cheap nylon looking fabric was the lining. Imagine my shock when I unpacked it. I don't know if it is better when it is in one of the other colours but it is horrid in white. It came with a black satin sash (dispite ordering a white one) that was also of poor quality. For those of you still thinking of getting this dress.. I am a true (comfortable) size 18 and the 2x was an easy fit. It may be a little big but the lace up back helped. Forget the sash it is horrid. My opinion? You can feel comfortable purchasing from this supplier as it is super efficient but buy another dress as this one is not worth the money. I now have to buy another dress and I can't return it as I am an international cutomer. The cost of shipping it back is more than the dress.

  By A2U16MQNW3UI6J on 2010-06-29
  I decided to take a chance on this dress because it looked simply elegant in the photo. When I ordered it, and received my online receipt and it said I chose 'Burgundy' when I was sure I had chosen 'Ivory with a black sash'. I called immediately the next morning, and they fixed it right away before it was shipped, with no added charges! Wonderful customer service. I received my order the next day, with TWO sashes! Ivory and Black. The dress fits wonderfully and makes me look slimmer, and isn't bulky or heavy, which will help during my summer evening wedding. The dress does look like it could be slightly see-through from the belly button down when I tried it on, but that is easily remedied with a slip purchased at any clothing store with an undergarment section- so not at all a big deal. Or if you are a larger girl, like myself; a stomach cincher of the same color. Two birds with one stone. I have a larger bust, and the top is a little tight, but I imagine that is because it's strapless and needs to be able to hold on. Strapless bra-cups will most likely fix this issue, as will the optional spaghetti straps that come with the purchase-so no real complaints about that. It does rustle a bit when you move, but not at all loudly or crinkly. Just a soft swishing. Most, if not all, of the negative reviews complain about this, but considering the dress is 'Taffeta', it makes their complaint void, in my opinion. I think the rustling is actually a 'charming' effect to this dress, and, I find it a rather pleasant sound. All-in-all, it's a wonderful dress that I am very happy with, and it will make my wedding day, even more special. =))

• Great for prom
  By A2FCIBXSLSJVRU on 2010-04-08
  Awesome service - ordered on a Friday evening and recd on Wednesday with regular shipping!!! The dress did not disappoint and we have purchased quite a few dresses from various retailers at great expense. Not sure why others called this cheap - my daughter was thrilled. She had two events and we got two for the price of one so I am thrilled as well! The reviews helped me with sizing. She is a 12 at Davids Bridal, but we got the XL because she has a full bust and this one fit perfectly because it could be adjusted in the back!
  
  
• amazing!!!
  By A1CBEPS8GRO5LO on 2010-03-29
  the dress was amazingly gorgeous.the size fit me perfectly.and the delivery was super fast for international,i receive it within 7 days after purchasing.
  
  
• Meh...
  By A2SB2JLVC7KOB6 on 2010-03-05
  I should have listened to the reviews I read. The taffeta fabric is way too thin. I could see my undergarments through it. When I took a few steps, the fabric rubbing against itself was very loud. I did however give PacificPlex 3 stars because they did ship fast and when I sent the dress back, I got my refund quickly.
  
  
• Excellent
  By A2FMCN9OSO71RV on 2010-03-05
  Exactly what I wanted! Beautiful material, fits like a glove and the colour, navy blue, is radiant! Certainly recommend for a school ball or prom. A+++
  
  
• I love this dress
  By A16FIM9DTUN53Q on 2010-01-29
  "I ordered my dress last minute, and paid for expedited shipping. The dress arrived even sooner than expected, and looks great! Yes, the material is a little cheap (it's taffeta). But the dress is worth what you pay for it, and the customer service is excellent. I am 5'7 and the dress length is perfect. It fits nice barefoot, and looks great with my 3.5" heels." The color was a little darker than pictured, but is a beautiful deep purple. I would definitely recommend this dress.
