I liked it! Wasn't in love or anything but looked pretty cool on my vacation in Greece 

Beautiful and versatile (and comfy!) dress. Wore to work, dates, church, etc. Love! 

I really like this dress but am going to like it better the second time around.  It runs huge.  The bottom can be adjusted because of the tie but the top is a ton of fabric and swallowed me.  Also, you must use a safety pin.  The dress split opens up all the way to the hip bone when you walk!

Wanted to buy this dress! The fabric is thick and amazing. The fit is perfect, and it has the slit because it's a wrap dress!

This dress is gorgeous but needs tons of work to be work appropriate. The tunic part of it is only on the front, which means when you walk, it opens to your hip. I had to safety pin the dress on both sides, and then at the opening. Size down, if in between sizes, was drowning in the size six. Wrinkles easily 

Wore this during a trip to Tuscany and it was so fun. I did struggle with not having the underskirt ride up but overall it was great 

Gorgeous green color. Adjustable tie at the waist allows the dress to be styled a few different ways. Linen is tricky but this one knocked it outta the park 

I almost didn't get this because of comments on the slit. I tried to take photos to show how it's made for others to make a better decision but it was hard ;P The SHIRT piece of the dress is long, like almost a golf skirt length and is a front panel. Then you have the SKIRT that wraps around. I love the material and color and I always wear bike shorts because its windy here more than it's not. All that being said, a safety pin is your best friend as it does wrinkle over the day (the shirt part seemed to draw up or something - if they had made that shirt part more than a panel it would've helped) and even though I knew I had shorts on, I didn't want to raise extra eyebrows LOL. If you are debating on size, it might be slightly larger than normal on fit but was fine. Even though it's long sleeve, I am considering keeping for another month as it's a great weight for spring and we had a cold front that I didn't get to wear as much as I had planned.

Wore to a catch up dinner and the color and fit were great. Could dress up or down. 

This was the perfect dress for my event. The material is soft and it was very comfortable. The color is also fabulous! 

I received multiple compliments for this dress at an event. You can dress it up or dress it down. I wasn’t ready for the high slit though. It sneaks up on you. It’s only on one side. As long as you are mindful, you’ll feel comfortable and confident wearing it. 

This dress can be dressed up with heels or down with sneakers. The slit is very high, but it's the perfect amount of leg for me!

The linen fabric is breathable and perfect for hot days. The green color is beautiful and vibrant, and the relaxed fit makes it very comfortable.

Smart, interesting, and sexy without being too revealing 

Loved this dress! Great for date night. Would wear to work as well but the slit was a little high. 

Just the RIGHT shade of GREEN! Unexpected surprise with how comfortable the dress was to wear.  I paired with nude heals and nude purse -- just to give the GREEN the attention it deserved!! ;) It is very linen (make note) and does wrinkle -- but I can say that it does not wrinkle in a way that is distracting. I travel for work and sadly this would not make a work trip due to the wrinkling -- but definitely good when I am local in the office! *Note* It is a long shirt with attached wrap waist tie - so keep your leg in @ work ;)*

Wore this to an alumni event and on vacation - so close to buying it because I loved it so much! 

Was a little too big and side would peek out if wind came but it was a beautiful piece.

I LOVED this dress!! The top half is loose, linen, and casual yet the wrap waist pulls in tight enough to give you a really flattering shape. Beware of a little thigh reveal, but that's all part of the flirty fun! ;) The color is eyecatching so be prepared for many compliments! 

This dress is BEAUTIFUL and NEAR PERFECT but the construction of it as others have noted is a bit needlessly insecure. The short part only covers the front and the long wrap doesn’t wrap fully around the front so on one side in particular it would frequently flap all the way open - but this can be pretty easily fixed with a single piece of fashion tape or pin. It’s a beautiful color, beautiful fabric, beautiful cut. 

Fit is oversized. Not super flattering but nice heavy linen that is great quality. 

Was on the edge for this one but gave this a spin on a recent vacation… glad I did! Super fun, lot of compliments. Wasn’t too hard to tie it to a flattering / covered fit. 

Only downside is the slit is HIGH on the side / I could not figure out how to get It to be less revealing without safety pinning down the opening? 

It did look just like the picture! But for me if the fabric is not perfectly steamed right, it’s not gonna lay correctly and it made it almost have too much leg showing. And it’s a kind of fabric that’s gonna wrinkle easily so that would be hard to keep up with if you wore up for a long time.  

I loved this dress but I would size down next time. It was a little too loose in the top. Also mind the slit. You could mistakenly flash airtime more than you planned by accident!

Loved the color of the dress! It was so comfy and easy to wear. The only thing to keep in mind is to be careful when walking because any quick movement or breeze, and the slit would show upper thigh. I had to hold it close when walking in the office. Still liked it though!

This dress was very cute and flattering. The slip underneath is very short though so I wore bike shots underneath. 

I think I should’ve sized down on this dress. It’s a lot of material, but I did love the color and I ended up wearing it and still liked it, but I felt like I could’ve sized down.

This is a fun dress! It does wrinkle heavily because it’s linen. I used fashion tape to secure the wrapped portion of this dress. Too much wind or movement & it would’ve shown too much! Overall, it’s fun to wear but not something that’s going to look perfect all day. 

Wrinkles easily like all linens. Beautiful color. Very cute style. Curvy girl friendly. Oversized look may be intentional by the designer? However, I would have enjoyed wearing this a lot more if I rented a smaller size. It was a mystery trying to figure out the right sizing with the reviews that were available at the time. I chose the smaller of my 2 sizes but still missed the mark. I would recommend going down 1-2 dress sizes. 

This was light and breezy- but the top was very oversized and I struggled to keep the bottom covering all my bits. The slit is too high for work. The inner skirt is a bit short and there isn't a good way to close the wrap to keep your leg covered enough. 

I wore it to work, but I used a fine stitch gun to hold the slit closed.  I got several compliments. The color is gorgeous and green always works well with my coloring. It was comfortable.

I won't rent this again. I ironed this dress thoroughly before I wore it and with the linen it was useless. I was wrinkled before I left the car. 
The dress "fit" but it was still too long in the arms. I had to roll it a little bit. The wrong type added additional bulk to my waist. When you combine that with the oversize top, it wasn't incredibly flattering.  It looked like I was 20 pounds heavier.

Slit was too high for me, overall tough fit. I wasn’t able to wear but on the right frame it’d probably be pretty cute 

ended up not wearing bc it was too hot out, this really does need to be used as a coverup based on how it ties, great color though 

I didn't wear this dress. The top buttons down like a short dress underneath and then the wrap is too much fabric. I did finally wrap it twice, which closed the gap wjer3 the slit is, but i still didn't love it. The wrap has too much fabric and the blouse is too over-sized for my style. 
Possibly if I had the right jewelry and event I would have made the double wrap work. 

Wore this to try it on. It took me a while to figure out how to get into it.  I ordered true to size and I would size down 1-2 sizes. The color is beautiful and the linen is good quality.  

I ordered this dress for St. Patricks Day. While I loved the color, I hated the construction of this dress. The shirt dress that's underneath the wrap skirt should be sewed on the sides. The fact that it's not made it impossible for me to wear without adjusting it constantly. I guess if you plan on staying still the whole time you're in this dress it's cute, but the second you move it's a disaster. 

Size 6 - 22” shoulder, 23” under arm to under arm, and 15” waist. Fits like a 6 in the waist and hips and a 15 in the top. 
Gigantic in the top (for ladies with D’s this will fit) and the volume of the top makes it really casual looking. There is something of a half length front that you wrap over… not a flattering fit at all. Comfortable. I’ll pin it so the slit doesn’t show my waist when I sit.
