NWT (Defect) Lulu’s Black Swan Lauren Forest Green Velvet Bodycon Midi Dress, XS

NWT (with strap defect) Lulu’s Black Swan Lauren Forest Green Velvet Bodycon Midi Dress in size XS. Flat measurements: ~14.5” unstretched bust ~16” stretched bust ~12.75” unstretched waist ~13.75” stretched waist ~16” unstretched hips ~18.5” stretched hips ~42.25” length True to size. Do NOT buy if you’re not a true extra small. Model is wearing an XS; her measurements are 5’9”, 34” bust, 24” waist, 34” hips. I’d say the XS would fit up to a 32” bust, 26” waist, and 36” hips comfortably, but I’d recommend sizing up for any measurements beyond that. I’m typically a size 4/small (34” bust, 27” waist, 37” hips) and thought this XS would fit since the velvet was advertised as stretchy, but the dress is quite fitted and barely has any stretch, especially the waist. I struggled to zip this up without help, and the lack of stretch completely flattened my bust and was uncomfortably tight on my entire body, particularly my ribcage and shoulders (straps dug in). 94% polyester, 6% spandex, lining 100% cotton. Hand wash cold. Strap defect: left shoulder strap is not fully attached to the body of the dress and is hanging on by a literal thread (see photos #15, 16). A seamstress could easily and quickly reattach the strap for a very, very small repair fee. I would’ve gone this route had the dress fit. Price firm. Selling to recoup as much money as possible to repurchase a size small. Posh takes a big chunk of sales, so not much room for negotiation.
