This seems like a really great service, especially for someone quite new to the vintage dressing malarkey (such as myself), to slowly be able to build up more of a vintage look wardrobe for less pennies. It's a shame that both dresses were the same colour so I look forward to any reviews you do of the dresses you receive over the next couple of months. Aside from that, I'd just like to say how much I am loving all of your videos. You are a sparkly inspiration and thanks to your tutorials I am having so much fun learning new things to do with my hair. Keep up the great work. Thanks and Tea from over here to you xxx

I have purchased dresses for me, a prom dress for my step-daughter and (in April) a prom dress for my god-daughter. I I considered buying a subscription until I saw the price. I have gotten some of the prettiest dresses from Unique Vintage for $25. None of the $25 dress were black. I sure hope they come through for you this month!

I also have the subscription, and have the exact same thoughts. I got the same dresses you did, only the halter dress I got was white, which was terrible. The construction on that dress was shoddy, and the lining in white was super sheer. I returned that dress because it was awful. As for the second dress, I kept it, because my husband really liked it on me. It was a decent enough basic, but I would have never purchased it for myself. I'm going to give them another month and if I don't get something that wows me, I'm cancelling.

But I hope it turns around for you soon, and you get something wonderful this month. :)

I loved the idea of the first dress, just not the construction. Could you imagine it in a bright fushia with a bright yellow underdress peeking out underneath? Now that would be awesome! The neckline of the second was definitely beautiful, the dress itself just seemed confused about what it wanted to be. I really hope you get some gorgeous dresses in the future. Keep us in the know!

I find that there are always less fun choices for curvy ladies (I am one myself) and there also tends to be a lot of darker fabrics. Apparently we are supposed to hide or something! It also looks like they are clearance dresses, and oddly enough that Marilyn style dress is available in a bright colour so why not send you that? I think as it stands the club is not that great. Having to pay for returns and not being able to get a refund is not good. How about an exhange instead? Or a tier system so could do like accessory or shoe of the month etc for a lesser price? Hopefully it gets better. PS your website looks amazing! great job!

I think the Marilyn-inspired dress looked WAY too Halloween costume-esque. It just looked cheap. The fact that the sheer fabric was seemingly fuller in the front versus the back was a huge put off. The second dress was...sweet and the neckline was very nice. I'm not opposed to the length either, but it would've been prettier to me in maybe an emerald green or even a mint green. ~Amy~

Those dresses look really cheap. From a seamstress' point of view, the fabrics look really cheap, and the construction has some execution problems. And, is it just me, or do they not even look that "vintage" in style? That first dress looked like a nightmare. Yikes. Hopefully it was a fluke and you can get two dresses that you really like eventually.

mmm yeah not too keen about the dresses either what the heck were they thinking with the first one? That's the kind of dress that only looks good if it's custom made... also the sheer fabric was put hephazardly. And to be honest? I wonder if the people doing this subscription box are not taking cheap dresses from Taobao or Aliexpress (or Alibaba) the dresses are cheaply made and take a looooong time to ship which would explain a black dress for summer. And don't think because they have a tab it's not copied. Or they have a huge overstock and they are liquidating dresses they had for a while. Also yay that they gave you credit for the dresses but yeah it you have a return policy you should make it easy to return the dress. Another thing I don't like about credit is this: What is they keep sending you dresses you don't like or resend you the same dresses. Then what? you can stop the subscription but llet's say they are holding on to 150$ worth of dresses... Do you bite the bullet and keep the dresses and terminate the subscription... also be on the lookout for the small prints they might actually have you send one last subscription before they let you terminate your account. That happened to me I cancelled my order way before the cut out time and they still charged my credit card and sent me one last box. I had to call my credit card and told them to NO LONGER ACCEPT transactions from that company because I cancelled my subscription and they still charged me. Since I received the goods my credit card company could not refund me but I prevented further charges.
