Oktoberfest Outfits Women Dirndl Dresses German October Costume Festival

FANTASTIC quality! I am so impressed with this costume. It is like something you would make yourself. The bodice is completely lined, there are no frayed edges, everything is hemmed nicely. The fabric is real fabric not plastic-y polyester. The zipper in the front makes it so easy to put on and the zipper is LONG not like some that are barely enough of an opening to fit into. The grommets for the ribbon are metal and cute. All the trim is well done and adds a very nice touch to the outfit. I love the piping. This dress is FITTED so make sure you know your size. To be clear, it is fitted in the bodice so that's the measurement you want the most. I do have a little tummy but the bodice does NOT come all the way down to the NATURAL waist so it actually hides my tummy in the skirt. One thing that is less than a 5 star is the blouse. It is cute and all but it doesn't have any stretch (not of the costume does) and so it is a bit of a struggle for me to put on. It has ties so you can tighten it but it fits me snug so no need to tighten. It would be nice if the fabric was a bit softer and I wonder if it will be softer after washing. If you are between sizes consider that the cotton might shrink. I plan to line dry mine. Also the sleeves are a bit tight at the elastic. Lastly, I feel it is a cute style and flattering.

Very well made and beautiful. Thick material. Binds and pushes up where it needs too. Lots of compliments. Not too short. Not too long. Can wear regular bra.

I needed a dirndl dress for an Oktoberfest party. I probably won’t be wearing it more than once so I didn’t need anything super high quality that would last a long time, but I still really wanted something as authentic as possible. This one is a great option bc, although I would put it solidly in the costumey category in terms of quality of materials and cost (this is clearly not an actual authentic dirndl), for what it is, the craftsmanship, fit, and design are very good. As a non-Bavarian person who has done a fair amount of research on authentic dirndls, it has the look of an authentic dirndl (as far as I can tell), down to the single side pocket. The craftsmanship is great. There is a lot of attention to detail, including the lining, trim, and ruffle details. The material of the skirt is quite thin (looks like cotton but is rayon) and I wish it was a bit fuller, but that’s kind of expected given the price. I added a petticoat underneath and it makes the dirndl look waaaaaay nicer. Sizing is true to size and the fit is excellent. I normally wear a size 4 and the small fits perfectly. The length hits right at my knees. I would love to support the authentic dirndl makers, as I do love traditional cultural attire, but I can’t justify the cost for something I’d wear just once. If you’re looking for an authentic looking dirndl that doesn’t break the bank, this one is a great option.

Very pretty and good quality but the sleeves were too tight. For reference I’m 125lbs 5’3” and typically a size small. I got the small and everything fit well except the sleeves. I’m sure you could stretch them out a bit or make a slit in the elastic to help. I ended up returning it. My friend got the same one in a bigger size. Still snug on the arms but it worked out for her!

Truly beautiful! Excellent quality. Adorable. Size guide is accurate.

I got this dirndl as a last minute scramble to have a dress for an Oktoberfest happening this past weekend. Ideally, I wanted an authentic or at least a German branded dirndl, but this was a great alternative, because it comes with the blouse and the apron. It was delivered just in time, I was able to give it a quick iron and I was ready to go. The dress is not cheap like most Halloween-style dirndl that have basic colors. The dress is made of 100% rayon, which is fine alternative to cotton, definitely breathable. The bodice is reenforced with white batting. The detail on this dress is amazing, I was impressed. For the price and time I got it, I was very pleased. It will always be nice to have this as a backup to the authentic dirndl I will be getting. As for fit, I usually wear a medium, I followed the size chart and got the medium and it fit great, not too tight. The flat waist measurement is 15" and that is my preferred comfortable measurement. I'm 5'1"/133 lbs. for reference. If you add a petticoat it will be even better and I will be getting a red ribbon for the bust instead, so it will bring out the fine red check pattern on the apron (it's not pink, it's a very fine red and white check). My only critique, and it's minor, is the tightness of the blouse sleeves. I probably have fat arms, but I think the sleeve openings could stand to be a little bigger!

I ordered the XL. I was shipped a Large. I returned it and bought a better quality XL from the same company. Very happy with the new dress. You should buy this one instead, much better quality!

It gets 5 stars for Quality, this isn't a cheaply made "costume" like dome others. Unfortunately for me, this did not get delivered in time for our Oktoberfest town party... so im returning it, delivery kept getting changed by amazon. I did try it on when it arrived, I ordered an XXL THE CHEST OF DRESS WAS TOO TIGHT, And the white top didnt fit. My sister is A large and she tried it on, she was able to get it on, but the white top was also a bit snug on the arms.

Excelente compra! Muy buena tela y SÚPER CÓMODO!! Según la tabla de tallas debía ser una L, la pedí y me quedó grande así que lo cambié por una M! (aún así me quedo un poco grande pero nada grave, ya que con el mandil todo queda bien)

I was looking at buying other dirndls for Oktoberfest that ran $4-500, this one is a reasonable price, fits perfectly (even a larger bust). The material isn’t thick which is nice and means I can wear shorts underneath without getting too warm. The sleeves are a little tight but I already planned to replace the blouse.

I was a bit nervous when I ordered it as it didn’t appear to be shipping for the first week or so but it got to me early. Which is great because I am wearing it to an Oktoberfest event this weekend. Still need a wash and iron it but it’s good quality. Fits true to size. I’m 5’6” and 165 lbs (a 10/12) and it fits perfectly. Ordered LARGE. Zipper in the front to make it easy to put on and take off. Nice quality. Beautiful colour. Exceeded my expectations!!!

Good quality but sizing is off. Order smaller than they say you should.

The dress is well made. I think it is worth the cost. I purchased one half the price that was cheap and see-thru… glad I returned it and bought this instead. The product description advises that it is 100% cotton however the tag on the dress says. 100% Rayon. I do believe that it is cotton, however. It’s a heavier thread and sturdier fabric than rayon would be—I think the tag is mislabelled.
