Overall I found the amount of fabric used to be great, the construction to be pretty good, but the quality inspection to be lacking. I did find some of the dresses had loose threads everywhere which for a $200 plus dress, is unacceptable. Conna Walker founded the London-based brand at the age of 17 and was inspired by iconic women with killer curves.

If you look at their size chart my measurements fall within the higher end of an XS, BUT most of XS dresses I ordered did not fit. Antonia wore a printed midi dress by Rebecca Vallance with a one-shoulder puff sleeve neckline, crinoline hem and a belt cinching the waist. The Tatinana Dress was the only dress that fit in an XS! The fabric felt slightly stretchier than the rest of the dresses and this dress didn’t have any boning. Many of the dresses also include boning that’s meant for structure and some have underwire cups.
House of CB Review – I spent $2,000 on House of CB Dresses!
House of CB has free returns and free shipping for the USA. You can return your item within 28 days of receipt. So while I loved this dress I had to send it back for poor quality control.
The Fabric
I placed my first order for XS and after the first one arrived and didn’t fit, I reordered everything in a size Small. Another HUGE problem is their dresses are definitely made for a 34B cup and above. If you are an A cup you will have that dreaded gaping at the bust.

The House of CB Elia Dress has underwire cups, boning and pockets! The dresses I ordered specifically were the Carmen Dress, the Elia Dress, the Tatiana Dress, and the Perle Dress. This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks.
And the front hook and eye closures are real. The Carmen just has too much fabric in the cups. I actually tucked the fabric into the dress and it looked amazing. But for a dress that retails for $225 I was not going to have it majorly altered.
That being said each dress has a lot of fabric. Each skirt on the dress was super full and beautiful. The prints on the dresses were beautiful as well.
She set out to create House of CB to offer that feminine aesthetic to women everywhere.
The actress was also accompanied by her daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Urban, who both wore Monique Lhuillier gowns on the red carpet. Kidman’s husband, country singer Keith Urban, went classic in a black suit and chunky dress shoes. The skirt on this dress is super super full, you can see they used a lot of fabric. The lace detailing on the bodice is also impeccably done.
The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data. However, I’ve had problems with UK companies not being completely transparent about their return policies on their website. So I ordered everything from Nordstrom instead.
While the size small fit everywhere the bust was awful. It literally looked like I had melted snow cones. Sybella Hawley, the look-alike niece of Nicole Kidman, donned a strapless corset dress from British fashion label House of CB. Her ensemble featured a boned bodice covered in stretch crepe in scarlet red and a matching silky satin maxiskirt with draped detailing.
This dress is fitted at the hip and not quite as full as I would have liked. This is because my measurements fall at the higher end of the XS. If you are at the higher end of a size, I would suggest ordering the next size up.
They usually contain a small amount of stretch too. You can return items for free via a prepaid shipping label or in-store! I’ve never had trouble returning anything to Nordstrom, so I highly recommend shopping from them if you are in the USA. Because there is so much fabric for the skirt the seam between the skirt and the bodice is almost impossible to get past with the zipper.
But I found the size S to be slightly too big. I didn’t get that snatched look that House of CB dresses are known for. House of CB dresses come in sizes from XS to L+. You can also choose your cup size of A-C, or D-E. Personally, I was not a huge fan of the fabric. I wish it was just made of cotton instead.
