Women German Dirndl Dress Costumes 3 Pieces Oktoberfest Carnival

My husband and I have been doing German fests for over a decade and I finally committed to the dress. We went to Munich for Oktoberfest on our honeymoon so I know what authentic looks like. This is a decent piece! Looks much better than the flimsy 1-piece costumes. Matches my authentic hat from our trip. I bought socks to go with to complete the outfit. For a reasonable priced more authentic looking piece this fits the bill. Sizing: I’m a pear shape, wear Carhartt/Old Navy 16 pants and size large (12/14) tops. The dress fit well and can be tightened. The top is a little big on me but I can fix that. Being 2 different sizes makes buying all in one items a challenge.

I am embarrassed to admit that I did not expect to love this Dirndl as much as I do, simply because of the relatively low price compared to many others. I was delighted by the look and feel of the dress, and the recommended size for the measurements I took fit perfectly. The quality is either extremely good for a costume or a little basic for wearing every day; the construction is good enough to hold up all day at Oktoberfest, for sure. I had zero problems dancing, moving, and sitting comfortably. It accommodates a petticoat very nicely if you like the extra poofiness, and looks amazingly graceful as you move. I had so many compliments - totally worth it! The blouse is adjustable to make the fit just right, as is the lacing on the bodice. The side zipper on the bodice makes getting in and out a snap without ruining the look of the front. I do really love the colors of the Dirndl, blouse, and apron, but if you want a fancier garment, you could add some piping or swap out a fancier blouse and apron. However, this definitely will get the job done for a wide variety of costuming or Oktoberfest needs. I loved it and will be finding excuses to wear it!

I purchased the black dirndl with navy apron and liked elements of the 3-piece set but ultimately returned it because of the fit of the dress. PROS: - Well made with pretty embroidery at the bodice and on the bottom of the apron. - Flattering crop top with just the right amount of puff in the sleeves and a neckline that is well suited for an updo. It has a modest neckline so keep looking if you want to show off cleavage. CONS: - Dress was too big. I ordered a medium based on the measurements but, even after cinching the front ties as tight as possible, it was still too loose. The apron can be used to define the waist if it’s loose but I didn’t like how much extra fabric was at my chest and I’d ordered another dirndl that fit better. For reference, I’m a 36B with a 30” waist and typically wear a size 6-8 top.

I have to admit, at first I was skeptical about the quality because the fabric felt thin and flimsy and came very wrinkled. But the wrinkles came out really easy with some heat, and the dress, skirt, and blouse looked AMAZING. The colors were vibrant, the fit was pretty true to the size chart, and the embroidery was my favorite part—very eye catching! I got TONS of compliments! I suggest going all out with a petticoat, a bra with some lifting power, and some cute shoes for the max effect.

Very well made! Good quality. The blouse is very short & feels weird but it works just fine. I will finish it off with white stockings & maybe clogs, then it’s off to the German Christmas market! Sized up & fits well.

$75 to not include the top with it

Beautiful and fit perfect Large is usually top size I wear Thanks! Will be wearing to work at Church German Dinner Getting into and out of the dress is a little difficult but if looser it would not be cute

I think you can see from the photos how well made this Dirndl is. So much attention to detail! The color was vibrant, everything was sewn so nicely, parts were of nice quality. Fabric was soft to the touch and comfortable all day and into the evening. The little white top fit nicely and didn’t ride up like some others do. I had to iron it to make it look crisp which is what you should do. I am 5’1” tall, 185 lbs and ordered an XL which fit me perfectly. Excellent company with a quality product at a reasonable price! Great Amazon experience! Thanks so much for a beautiful Dirndl that I will wear for years to come! Highly recommend!!!!!!!!! A++++++++++++++ In fact, they had another color I also liked so I’m going to order that one as well. Cheers!
