Les créateurs et les joueurs convergent pour saluer unanimement la qualité globale de Dressmaker, notamment à travers son gameplay, son histoire et ses graphismes. Cependant, les retours plus larges sur Steam révèlent des frictions notables concernant les bugs et l'interface utilisateur, des aspects épargnés par l'unique vidéo analysée qui relève plutôt d'une tendance positive isolée.
