Stylist Review
I love this classic The Perfect Black Wrap Dress by Leota. Running true to size with some stretch, I recommend wearing your true size as your primary size and going one size up for backup. This style is fitted throughout the midsection and fitted at the hips. It's great for any cup size since it has comfortable room at the bust. You are able to wear a standard bra with this dress. At 5'5, the length hit knee length on me. This dress is the perfect LBD on any occasion based on the fit alone. It's a great staple to add to your wardrobe. Pair with black flats and fun earrings to complete your outfit!

Too short for work
Great fit up top and very flattering waist. Was much too short for work for me, I had hoped for it to come closer to my knees. Would probably work great for someone less tall or with a less generous bum.

Thin, unforgiving material
The material was very thin and unforgiving. The dress was way too clingy and lower cut than I'd expected. Not great for us larger breasted ladies

With the right jewelry and shoes, I could dress this up or down. It travelled well. No iron!
The fit and flare was just my style and very flattering. The material was very comfortable.

Perfect black wrap dress is accurate
I wore this multiple times - so versatile and so comfortable. I usually add a camisole to the Leota wrap dresses for work, and add a jacket, sweater or something to change it up. I probably got 5 different outfits with this one. Love love loved it.

Love a simple wrap!
The material is thinner than I thought. I'm 5'6 and found the length to be perfect - right above the knee. It fit well, was flattering and I received many compliments in it. It's not too low cut (I'm a b). Perfectly work appropriate and looks great under a long cozy sweater and ankle booties. Easy to dress down or dress up. Arrived new with tags.

Surprisingly long!
I rented this for a volunteer event where I had to wear black. I thought it would be comfortable to run around in all night. However, the dress was not the pictured length. It came down to my ankles! Even if you were a bit taller, it would be a midi length and not knee length.

Classic Wrap, but Clingy
This is a classic wrap dress that fits well. If you don't like clingy pieces, you should skip this one. Lots of opportunities for creativity with this one: add fun jewelry, a colorful blazer, a fun shoe, possibilities are endless!

Flattering but hard for a bigger chest!
This fit almost exactly true to size. The way it fit was really flattering for my waist, but I have a bigger chest and it was too low cut for me. It might have worked with a tank top but I just don't really like that look. I would definitely have ordered it again if I didn't have the cleavage problem (DD) so would recommend this to most people for a clean and classy black dress!

Nothing too exciting about this piece. I needed to wear a cami underneath - finding this brand very hit or miss as to how their wrap dresses fit my chest.

Bought to wear for an important work meeting.
This dress is true to size, but definitely doesn't hide ANYTHING. I could have pulled it off with Spanx, but ended up not wearing it in favor of something a bit more forgiving. It's a nice super basic LBD, but not something that will help with the lumps and bumps.

The material is slightly thin. It's also low cut. Adding even a thin cami, shows bulk at waist/hip.
Good for curvy gals, but with no midriff.

I desperately wanted to love this dress since it looks like such a classic, staple piece. However, this is NOT a forgiving garment. At all. Also, I feel that the price is a bit unjustified given how flimsy and clingy the material is.

It fit weird. The fabric is heavy and stretchy. After wearing it for an hour it became so low cut I couldn't keep my chest covered. I was miserably uncomfortable. Pulling it up constantly

Comfy, fit well, but a bit low cut for my conservative office (although to be fair, I have a large bust). I liked this, but not a lot of wow factor.

Rented for everyday/work. Leota dresses are either very long or very short... I'm 5'5", for reference. This dress came with the tags still on it, but it was much longer than in the picture, and it cut me in a weird spot.

Not great quality. Exposes a bit too much chest area. Not a true wrap dress but a faux wrap dress. It's just meh.
