CurveDream Review and Order Details
I ordered the below items on 10/17/2023 to my address in North Carolina (United States). I paid a total of $161.72 to CurveDream via PayPal. The charge appears on my credit card statement as “PAYPAL *CURVEDZVLA”. – View Order Confirmation
1) Crew-Neck Ribbed Vintage Sweatshirt
- Color, Size, and Cost: Multicolor / L / $25.99
- Country: Unknown
- Material: The product page states Cotton Blends.
Expectation: It is VERY different from what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. The product page says it is made of a cotton blend, but you can clearly see the one I received is most likely 100% polyester.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is mediocre. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and it fits well. However, I would prefer a bigger size for a looser fit since the hips are too fitted for my taste. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return this CurveDream sweatshirt.
The price isn’t terrible, however, I do not like this cheap, stretchy, polyester-feeling material. I would rather pay a little more for a sweatshirt made of more natural materials like cotton.
2) Flower-Print Sleeveless Casual Jumpsuit
- Color, Size, and Cost: Pink / M / $35.89
- Country: Made in China
- Material: 100% Polyester
Expectation: It is not what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. The colors in the product image have more red and black shades than mine does. Mine also has a seam at the waist and looks shorter length-wise.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is bad but wearable. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and it fits well. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return this CurveDream jumpsuit.
While I like the smooth and lightweight feel of the material, it feels as thin as paper, and the price is too expensive for how poor quality it is.
3) Shirt-Collar Short-Sleeve Cotton Polka Dot Midi Dress
- Color, Size, and Cost: Blue / M / $40.99
- Country: Made in China
- Material:
- Shell- 100% Cotton
- Lining- 97% Polyester / 3% Spandex
Expectation: It isn’t what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. The dress is much thinner and more see-through-looking in person. The color also has a slight green tint to it in person, which the product image does not show.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is bad but wearable. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and the hips fit a bit tight. However, I think sizing up would be too big. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return this CurveDream dress.
While I like the cotton texture, embroidery, and flattering figure-hugging fit, the dress is extremely thin and see-through, it fits a bit tightly, and is too expensive for the overall quality.
4) Casual Flare-Leg Drawstring Pants
- Color, Size, and Cost: Light Pink / L / $24.86
- Country: Made in China
- Material: Different materials are listed in two places:
- Product page- Spandex / Cotton
- Care label- 100% Polyester
Expectation: They are not what I was expecting in terms of overall appearance. The color in the product image shows a pinkish tan color, while mine is a flatter, more cool tan color. Absolutely no hints of pink.
Quality: In my opinion, the quality is mediocre. See my Quality Comparison & Rating Chart to know my current quality-rating standards.
Fit: I ordered based on the size guide provided, and they fit well. View my Body Measurements for size reference.
Keep or Return: I would return these CurveDream pants.
While I like the smooth and flowy material, I don’t like the fit. I like to wear these kinds of pants higher up at my natural waist. These, unfortunately, are meant to sit a bit lower, so they ride up and give me a wedgie. I think these are better suited for someone with either a lower waist or for those who like to wear their pants lower.

Support Experience
- After placing the order, I waited two weeks for a shipment email and received nothing. I emailed them asking what was going on and if my order was on the way, and they responded with the below. It is unbelievable that they would just stay radio silent rather than reach out to me when they learned the below information. Very poor customer service.
“Sorry to tell you that the following item is temporarily out of stock: Casual Women Long Sleeve Cardigans. Would you like an equivalent product as a replacement on our website? If so, please inform us of the product ID or link, size, color, and quantity. Or, would you like to wait for the new stock, or cancel it, and ship the rest? Looking forward to hearing from you.”
- When requesting the return, they provided me with the return address very promptly.
- They alternatively offered a partial refund of $36 + keep the items. After rejecting, they bumped it up to a $58 partial refund. I rejected all offers.
- Before providing the return address, they asked for the reason for the return.
Provided return instructions and guidelines:
- We accept returns of unworn and unwashed items with the original conditions, including the clear plastic package.
- We currently are unable to offer a free returns service, so return shipping must be made at your own cost. Please DO NOT return to the address on the package received, that’s not our return address. Otherwise, we are afraid that we do not accept returns and no refunds.
- Upon receipt and inspection of the returned item, we will be happy to refund the price of the item (not including the shipping fee as we had shipped it). To ensure a successful return, please use a standard shipping service that provides tracking.
- Please write the following information on the paper and put it in the parcel: Order # & Product IDs (they provided these to me).
- To make your refund process smooth and fast, please return the item(s) within 7 days of receiving this email and provide us with a tracking number.
- It’s crucial that you choose a carrier with a tracking number to ensure a hassle-free return for a refund. Without the tracking number, we may not be able to issue a refund or send you an exchange item

Reverse Image Search:
I found several of the same products on Amazon, Walmart marketplace, AliExpress, Temu, etc. for much cheaper. For example, I found the below cardigan for $35.98 on CurveDream, and $15.91 on AliExpress. I highly recommend doing reverse image searches when shopping online to ensure you are not getting ripped off.
Do I Recommend This Shop?
Based on my experience, they are a legitimate shop. I paid for my items, received them within the estimated time frame, successfully completed a return, and received a full refund.
With that being said, I personally would not shop here again.
Firstly, even though I am not terribly disappointed with some of the items, the overall quality is nothing to write home about. All of the materials are on the cheap side, are thin, and the coloring on a lot of the items is different than I expected. Secondly, one of the items doesn’t have a care label. So there is no way for me to know what it is made of, where it was made, etc. Another one of the items is made of a completely different material than what is advertised on the product page. Big red flag to look out for. Thirdly, it took them over two weeks to ship my order. I had to follow up with them to find out what was going on. They told me an item was out of stock and asked if I wanted them to replace it or ship the other items without it. It is crazy that they sat on this issue for two weeks and didn’t reach out to me to resolve it right away. It took over three weeks to receive my items because of this unnecessary delay. Finally, after doing some reverse image searching, many of their items can be found for over 50% cheaper on sites like AliExpress. With all of this in mind, I will happily pass on shopping with them again.
