Meaneor Women's Casual V Neck Zip Front 3/4 Sleeve Flare Side Lightweight Tunic Top Black S

The folks at Meaneor were kind enough to provide me with this 3/4 Sleeve V Neck Zip Front Side Shirring Drap Tunic Top (color: Black, size: Small) in exchange for sharing my unbiased review...

First off, I was a bit stumped by the size info in the product description. It says: US S--Shoulder--42cm/16.38''; Sleeve--42cm/16.38''; Chest--90cm/35.10''; Waist--80cm/31.20''; Hip--84cm/32.76''; Length--93cm/36.27''.

Since the waist measurement seemed large for a size small and the hip measures just over an inch wider than the waist, I gave the seller my info to see what they advise. They said their designer recommended I order a size Small.

For reference, I'm 5'2". I typically wear a size 6, 32-34C bust, 29" waist, and am pear shaped with 38" hips. This tunic wasn't at all flattering on me. I like the look of it online but the shape on me was just ill fitting...

If I wore it unzipped, lower than any v-neck top I've owned, it looked better but then I'd want to wear a cami or cropped top underneath. Zipped anywhere higher than the extreme low, it puckers outward like have a large lump under my top (see my last uploaded photo). If not for the zipper issue, I'd have rated this three stars rather than two.

This product is made in China. It might look better on someone who is more broad with narrower hips. It is loose in back at the top and tight across the hips. I wouldn't say the fabric is at all forgiving though, regardless of size. It's thin and shiny.

I couldn't wear this like a dress or cinched up as a top. It just looked all wrong either way and my husband agreed. I like the 3/4 length sleeves and the shirring but the cut ruins it for my figure. The sleeves are like dolman style, larger and draped at the top.

No loose seams but unfortunately, not a keeper for me. Uploading some photos so you can get a closer look, see the wash instructions, and the fabric blend. Hope this is helpful!
