Here is the complete solution if you want to control the corner radius of the dialog and preserve elevation shadow

Dialog:

class OptionsDialog: DialogFragment() {

override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View {
    dialog?.window?.setBackgroundDrawable(ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT))
    return inflater.inflate(R.layout.dialog_options, container)
}

}

dialog_options.xml layout:

The key is to wrap the CardView with another ViewGroup (here FrameLayout) and set margins to create space for the elevation shadow.
