Loved this dress, it fit just about perfect, was a little loose in the hip/lower waist but still looked great. I saw others said the bust would fall open but this one was sewn shut… not sure if that’s how it is supposed to be but it worked well for me without any issues if it opening. 

This is one of my favorite dresses I’ve ever worn. It’s beautifully made, fully lined and just really cute. The fabric is thick yet the dress doesn’t feel heavy or hot. I’ve been pairing it with simple heels and a collared shirt underneath. The fit feels a little big, but also like a size smaller would be too snug. It’s very flattering still and I feel great wearing it!

I wore this to work and felt super confident and put together. I loved the tuxedo style. I think this dress works for a work or even a cocktail event. I’m in between sizes at the moment and sized up to the larger size, which was a good choice for me.

Tried sizing up to make this maternity friendly. It worked good enough, but would probably be great after baby. Needed to size up one more to really make it a better fit, and it was a little too low cut for my liking in the workplace. Loved the overall style, though. 

It is a little tight in the hips and a little big up too. A nice Friday dress for work though 

This was a really nice material and looked like it could even be worn for a professional event. However, it was not super flattering if you have a bit of a tummy and that really showed in pictures with flash.

I loved the look of this dress when I put it on for work, but the minute I sat down at my desk, the front flopped open. I had to work with my hand closing the top gap all day. I am a little bustier, so beware the top part opens up and is revealing. 

Easy to style, very forgiving cut. As other have said it gaps in front but mine was safety pinned by a previous renter (I assume) and it worked great. 

The material is thick, high quality and flattering. I typically wear a 6, but am wearing the 4 in this pic. It fit me more tightly than I'm comfortable with for work so I should have stuck with my normal size, but it wasn't available. 

I wore this to get new headshots taken and for a work event. I loved it. I usually wear a 2 in most brands but I wore a 0 in this and it fit perfectly, so I'd say it runs a little large. 

Rented this as a work dress and it came new with tags still attached.  Love the shape of it.  I sized up since I'm an apple shape and it's a sheath dress.  Wish there was a little more room in the busy.  It is secured by a thin piece of thread where it overlaps, and that pulls some when I sit.  Overall great dress.  May end up buying.

I honestly should have probably sized down one. I normally wear a 12 but was concerned about the chest area.  But very cute dress. Hits the knee and could be both work or going out for a dressy date appropriate. 

Flattering sleeveless dress. Fitted, added a long sleeved t shirt to wear to work in the winter and looked cute. Would probably need to wear a cami in the summer since the v neck is a bit low cut. 

This was a cute, simple black dress.  When I sat down the front gapped and showed a bit more than I normally feel comfortable with.  Look fabulous standing and was figure flattering.  

Great black professional dress that has a bit of a tux flare. Fit well. Several complements. 

I added a safety pin to ensure the top stayed closed, but this is a great work dress.
