" I bought this dress when I was a 2x and i bought it in all the colors over many years. I've lost a few sizes and just repurchased this in the smallest size they make in Black again. It's my favorite dress ever. It doesn't wrinkle. It looks great with Boots and sandals and heels. Jackets, cardigans and scarves change it up.

Remember that not every style is designed with your body shape in mind. For example if you're pear-shaped, a dress with straight sides will either be too tight across your hips or too loose across the bust. In that case, A-Line shaped styles will fit your more comfortably.
If you're unsure which size to order, please contact us and we can advise you. Brands that aren't Vikki Vi follow a different size chart (available on the product page), and we're happy to pop into the warehouse and measure a garment for you if necessary.
Our blog includes numerous plus size shopping tips and plus size style tips that can help you select garments that you'll love.
How to Measure Your Body
Relax and remind yourself that your measurements are neutral bits of information. We know that this can be an emotional experience, but it doesn't have to be. You're just gathering data.

Waist - Let's start with this one because it's easiest. Wrap the measuring tape around your waist and come on, baby do the twist. That twisting motion moves the measuring tape to your natural waist.
Bust - Wiggle the measuring tape up so that the back is a few inches above your bra band. You want to measure the largest part of your bust and since you want the measuring tape to be parallel to the floor, wiggle it around until it is.
Hips - You need to measure the biggest part of your hips - the hard part is figuring out where that is. Every booty is unique, so you may need to measure several spots to find the biggest one. It's probably lower down than you expect.
Inseam - You may find it easiest to measure a favorite pair of pants to find your inseam measurement. Lay the pants on a flat surface and measure from the crotch to the ankle.

I haven’t worn it yet, but I tried it on and I love it!!
Hi Daphne! I'm so glad you love the dress. We can't wait to hear how it looks when you wear it out. Thanks for sharing your excitement!
This dress is elegant. The material is excellent quality and hangs beautifully on you. It can be dressy with just a statement piece at the neckline and earrings or dressed casually with a scarf and hoop earrings.
Thank you for your kind review! We're so happy to hear that you find our dress elegant and of excellent quality. We agree that it can be dressed up or down, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe. Thank you for choosing Vikki Vi!
I like the un-fussiness of the dress. It is long enough that I can sit on a front row or platform without worry about exposing “secrets.” I plan to wear it with the Classic black blazer when it becomes available in my size. The dress is a marvel without a jacket and looks amazing with or without a stylish hat. I am delighted to have it in my wardrobe.
Hi there, thank you for your review of our Vikki Vi Classic Black dress. We're so glad to hear that you appreciate the simplicity and versatility of the dress. We agree that it pairs beautifully with our Classic black blazer and can't wait for it to be available in your size. We hope you continue to love wearing this dress with or without a stylish hat. Thank you for being a valued customer.
I would love to see more of this style dress with different patterns
Love the color and texture of the material
great fit
I bought this dress when I was a 2x and i bought it in all the colors over many years. I've lost a few sizes and just repurchased this in the smallest size they make in Black again.

I bought this dress and jacket to wear to a wedding. However, it will be great to wear many places and events. Actually, all of the outfits are so pretty and I will purchase another one soon!

HI Barbara,
Thanks for writing a review. Enjoy!
It feels good and looks good. Delighted to add it to my coordinated wardrobe!
Hi Kristina,
So glad that you are enjoying your Vikki Vi Graphite dress! Thank you for the review.
I cannot adequately thank you for making this dress style available! It is SO difficult to find quality clothing when you're both PLUS size and *TALL*. And the longer length is great for ANYONE who likes to wear dress boots, and finds it irritating when there's a gap between the top of the boot and the hem of a dress.
This dress is so flattering and versatile. I buy one each time you come out with a new color. Its quality fabric that does not cling, paired with the
A-line cut and mid-calf length make this style FAR superior to the straight cut and awkward length of the tank dress, which I stopped ordering after my initial
purchase.
The very subtle sheen of the fabric not only makes the dress quietly elegant for special occasions, but can easily be "dressed down" with a sweater or jacket for daytime wear. It is my "go-to dress" for church, dinners out, etc.
My only disappointment with this style is that there are so few color &/or print options. In speaking with customer service, I learned that this is because the "midi" length is sold less often than the knee-length or floor-length styles. I'm wondering if a simple redesign to elbow-length sleeves would make this dress truly trans-seasonal, and therefore more appealing and saleable. (The current 3/4 sleeves are lovely but make the dress too hot for summer, and shorter sleeves should be fine in winter, since it would likely be paired with a jacket or sweater
anyway). Again, Thank you for this WONDERFUL dress, and PLEASE keep the solid colors/prints coming!!!
Hi Karla,
Thanks for the review and the suggestions. Enjoy!
Such a pleasure to have a dress to coordinate with other acquisitions in your lovely chocolate brown!
Hi Kristina,
Thanks for writing a review. Enjoy!
I have been
a client with Plus by Design for so many years. I have purchased everything in black and once in awhile throw in another color. The three quarter dress is just stunning. II can wear it for many events and look slim and stylish.
Hi Sheila,
Thanks for writing a review. Enjoy!
Bought this dress in black and love it. I’m short so for me it’s the perfect length as longer than midi. The scoop neckline lets you dress up the dress with nice spread of a necklace piece. The 3/4” Sleeved fit nicely as they are not too long on my short arms ( they go with the vertically challenged height). Obviously loved the black so took the opportunity to buy it in navy.
Hi Esther,
Thanks for taking the time to write a review. Enjoy!
The style of this dress is great. The classic fabric has just the right weight to skim over ‘the not so good’ things, but still look good. Wish more colors came in this style.
Hi Nancy,
Thanks for writing a review. Keep an eye out for this style in future collections. Enjoy!
Love the dress very stylish and sexy.
Hi Lavonne,
Thanks for writing a review. Enjoy!
The stretchy material is a bit iritating-scratchy. coupon for save $25 no minimal purchase came AFTER I bought 2 dresses. Wrote so see if they would kindly refund me $25 a few times with no response. Debating whether I return it or not.
Thank you so much for your review. We emailed back to let you know that your original purchase was on a 25% off flash sale and not valid for an additional coupon. You are more than welcome to return the dress if you aren't completely happy with it. Thanks again!
I love this dress and this style! It is perfect along with the blazer that I use to coordinate with it! Would love to see this dress available in more solid colors and prints as well as the blazer!
Hi Kristina,
Thanks for leaving a review and for letting us know what you want to see more of. Enjoy!!
I'm really enjoying my navy dress. I can dress it up or down with jewelry or scarves. Great material!!!
Hi Brenda,
Thanks so much for letting us know. Enjoy!!!
I love my new Wisteria 3/4 Wisteria maxi dress and am so glad I purchased it!
Hi Kristina,
Thanks for leaving a review. Enjoy!!!
Simple, elegant. Lovely flattering colour. It is going to work hard in my wardrobe!
Valerie
Hi Valerie,
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. Enjoy!
I can not say that they fit ‘true to size’ because American Ready to Wear has no sizing standard. I will tell you that the size 2 fits me wonderfully. I’ll need to get my Navy dress shortened but right now the tailor shop is closed due to Covid-19
I love the fabric and from past experience I know that it packs well, doesn’t wrinkle when wearing or in a suitcase. I have purchased the short Navy dress, a Navy jacket, a black and also a violet jacket. I bought these for convention.
Hi Cathy,
Thanks so much for leaving a review.
I always wear a 2x. But based on the reviews and description of the dress I decided to buy the 1X to reduce the amount of fabric in the hip/skirt area -- and, a little bit, -- to reduce the length. I'm only 5' 1". It was a good decision. I love the dress and while it doesn't "skim my middle" as much as a 2x would have, perhaps, I am satisfied with the fit. Of course it is still way too long for the dress as designed but fine if I decide to keep it and wear as a "maxi", which I might. This is an elegant style and has the usual rich black color and heavy "hand" of all VikkiVi Classics. I wore it with a chiffon topper and felt very polished. Another winner, Danielle!
Hi Ellen,
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. Good call with the size. Enjoy!
Great style, fabric wrinkle free, great fit. I am so excited to have this dress in my closet. Wore it New Year’s Eve and felt wonderful in it.
Hi Barbara,
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. Enjoy!
Wrong size for me; too big; also very heavy fabric
Hi Helen,
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. If the acetate fabric is too heavy for you, you might prefer the jersey. Feel free to contact us for advice on which size to order if you're ever unsure in the future.
Exactly what I was looking for
Hi Susan,
Thanks so much for your review!!
