I love the color and idea of this dress. The top, though, had a super weird fit as you can see from the photos. Huge billowy area in the chest and underarm area. It’s not as noticeable with arms down so I wore this just once.

Overall it fit great and I love the colors but the front buttons were pulling open and I kept having to adjust. Perhaps sizing up would have helped! 

Very weird fit in the arms and back. Excessive ruching. A belt couldn’t even save this one. This dress was terrible and I don’t understand the fit intention at all. 

I never wore this because of the baggy side issue others have mentioned. It was just terrible and unflattering. I kept thinking maybe there was damage to the dress because I don’t know how it could be intentional he designed this way because it is so unflattering. Love the color and the print but this was a big mess. 

I have followed the advice of other reviews and sized up. Big mistake. The dress is huge, the elastic bruising sagged around my body. If anything, size down!

I liked the print and colors but this was too big for me.  It has an elastic back so sizing down would have been better 

I found the fit perfect! Other reviews made me hesitant about the fit but it's smocked back and empire cut is meant to wear like a babydoll dress - so I embraced it and loved it!

It was way too big and loose on me.  I think I would have liked it if I had a different size.  Maybe it would work better for larger chested women.  I was going to wear it with leggings and boots to a Galentine’s party. 

This fits very loose up top and I had to cinch it with a belt. There was still a lot of gathered material at the back 

This dress is so cute in theory, but the cut of the dress is ridiculous. It has basically an empire waist line in the front with the smock elastic coming under your armpits, but it makes you look like a flying squirrel. The back fabric is so baggy but you can't yank the extra fabric to the front to even it out. Not even good with a belt. NOT worth it. 

This is a cute print, I will probably pair it with flat knee high boots for a work dinner. Very comfortable and true to size 

It fits strangely around the shoulders and neck. I ended up tossing a sweater over it. 

Many shoe choices, great for spring, slightly longer than other similar dresses which (for me) made it a solid and FUN work choice. 

I usually wear a size 10, but in Kate Spade I wear a 12 and it fit great. The rushing in the back made it really stretchy and could fit a variety of top sizes. Skirt portion was very full and twirly. The pink on hot pink color made it a standout! Fun and flirty while still conservative. 

This dress was so pretty and feminine! Loved it!

I loved the fit and color of this dress. 

This is a beautiful, feminine and professional looking dress.  I rented it for a conference.  I'm 5'1" and 110 pounds and the dress fit great, not tight at all.  I'm a 32 DD and the center button was puckering very slightly, so if you have a large bust, you may want to size up.  I felt very beautiful and sexy without showing anything!  Very comfortable.  Lots of compliments.

I had people literally walking out shops to tell me they liked this dress. It's very bright and eye catching! Super comfy, and easy to wear! Only part I didn't love was that I felt like the front of the dresses "bust seam" goes higher and then drops lower in the back. Felt it was an odd choice but eventually forgot about it! 

Nice quality, but not the most flattering dress on me. Runs a bit big in the waist and a bit small in the bust. Would consider renting again just because I like the pattern so much, though it’s maybe a touch bright for me (I’m super pale!). 

I got so many compliments on the color. I wear a 12 but only the 14 was available. It fit fine and was super comfortable. Love it!

I think this Cheers everyone up! Wore to a work event where I needed to make a short intro for an event and I knew the main speaker would be just as bold and burger! Perfect. Looked incredible w the matching bright fuchsia Rebecca minkoff jacket. Felt very mrs maisel and never so coordinated!!  

This dress runs a little small for Kate Spade sizing. If you have a larger bust, I would size up as the buttons at the bust can create a gap. This is a cute dress to wear and extremely comfortable!

I wore this for my first day back to school and received lots of compliments. The color is so bright and fun. The button closures were borderline puckering, so fuller bust girls may want to size up or just wear a thinner lined bra underneath. I loved the vibrant fabric-- definitely a day-brightening dress. 

I bought this for a real estate music video I was recording. I always have loved Kate Spade. The colors were absolutely perfect and it fit so well. The dress was comfortable to wear all day and received so maybe compliments. Hoping I can buy this dress soon.

Loved this dress! The stretch in the back made it so comfortable and pairing it with tights and a leather jacket made it the perfect day to night outfit. I think it runs true to size

This dress is VERY bright.   I love pink and I even had to think twice about wearing it.  I'm glad I did because it was comfortable and the fabric is beautiful. I sized up to a 14 because this designer's line runs very small.  The buttons just closed on my chest.   I received a ton of compliments.  Perfect for any season.  A must rent. 

This is a great dress for a POP! of color to bring into the everyday neutrals that every one wears at work. The dress overall is a very comfortable fabric. The back top half of the dress has a nice stretch to it for lady's with a bigger bust. Over wonderful dress. Highly recommend for this fall! #rtrlewks

This dress is true to size. It fits perfectly with room to stretch and is very comfortable. Definitely recommend!
