Very cute but Difficult to walk fast in this

This dress is adorable and I loved the look but I couldn’t wear it while running errands because it narrows and tapers mid-calf. This means the range of each foot step is restricted by the circumference of the much narrower hem. I loved the way it looked, loved that it had pockets, loved the high neck and lower back collar, but the small steps were a tad annoying. While walking with my 3rd grader, my steps had to be smaller than my kid to avoid tripping from the tapered hem. Perhaps sizing up would have resolved this issue, but then I worry about how it would fall on the rest of my body. I also liked that the dress seemed to be brown and navy under some light and brown and black under other lighting. Very cute. Would rent again and possibly try the next size up.

Loved and purchased

I loved the slightly Victorian feel of this dress and ended up buying it despite the fact that it’s kind of tight-fitting. The colors and weight of the fabric makes it great for cooler weather.

Cute winter dress

I'm actually accidentally wearing it backwards in the pic lol. However very cute dress. Great for winter or chilly fall. Only thing to note is it's a column dress with no slit so can't spread your legs too far apart. I kept getting bound up when I was walking to dinner.

Just right

Perfect casual fall dress!

This is the midi length tulip dress I didn't know I would need. Fabric is thick and comfortable with stretch all along the chest and arms. Balloon sleeves are adorable, pockets without bulk through the hip, and the cut of it is surprisingly flattering. Wore to a fall baby shower and received SO many compliments on this. Easy to throw on and make a statement, but WATCH YOUR STEP, lol! The cropped hem makes it hard to take a normal stride, so don't anything too active in this. I though about bringing it on a trip to Europe, but decided to return bc it's not comfortable to walk long distances in. Would rent again, 10/10

Size up for comfort

I sized up to a large and I’m glad I did. I definitely could have done a medium BUT I read the reviews and saw people said the bottom made it hard to walk. The large solved that problem for me without adding too much bulk to the dress. I’m 5’1” , 165lbs I wear anything from an 8 to a 12. Length was good! Liked this WAY more than I thought I would.

Very Fall

I got a few compliments on this dress! It’s perfect for those damp fall days. Is very comfy! The bottom of the dress has no give so of you have a long stride it might not work for you.

I wore this dress a million times.

Love love love! The dress was perfect for work, going out during the day and night, and everything in between. The bottom hem of the skirt is tight so maybe not the best walking long distances dress, but so perfect otherwise. Would rent again.

Not sure how to describe this, but it’s good.

I think this dress was different than I expected. It’s pretty thick. Not breathable. And the fabric doesn’t give at all. Hard for gals who take long strides like myself lol. That being said, it’s a beautiful dress. I was obsessed with the sleeves and the stretchy smock top part. Great for a dinner party or something, not for dancing or frolicking around.

Cute fall vibe

Skirt area is straight cut- so not a lot of movement allowed. For me it cut my step off a bit so to walk stairs etc I needed to hold up the skirt.

Awkward high neck & no leg room to walk

I rented this dress to wear to work and while it was very cute it wasn’t super functional. The neckline was super high riding and awkward. The leg opening was so narrow that you couldn’t take more than a half step. I actually had to lift my dress up to walk.

Perfect dress . . . unless you need to walk

As everyone before me warned, there’s a major design flaw here. Il not sure how this one got past the designer’s runway. It simply needs a kick pleat. It’s otherwise perfect.

Stylish fall dress

Loved this look for the fall! The stretch in the top allows it to be pretty comfortable. The only thing that bothered me was the hole at the bottom was really small. I had to walk weird/slow

Boring! Impossible to walk in!

I *thought* this would be a great dress for a work trip: conservative, comfortable, easy to pack. But it really was drab and boring and I had to hide it under an oversized coat to be okay wearing it. And that wasn’t even the worse part: it was impossible to walk in! The hem on the skirt has NO give, so you have to take tiny steps. Just pass on it.

Fall favorite

Fit is perfect as the bodice is stretchy and molds to your type. Bonus: can be worn two ways! Can be worn backwards for a little more scoop neck look.

My fave pick this time

I loved this dress so much I had to learn more about the designer. I love the shape of this dress it is a tulip dress so it rounds out your hips but it is tight around the legs. It did not bother me as long as I took smaller steps. The color of the plaid is beautiful. Very moody fall look.

Run, if you can, to get this!

Cute pattern and cut. You'd think this might be a boring piece, but it has details that make it a standout dress. There is the ruching in the bodice, the cute balloon sleeves, and pockets! The only issue is the dress bottom is a little tight so you can't take big steps or run, but you'll want to walk slowly anyways so everyone can see how cute you are in this! :)

This was the second time I rented this dress. It is so flattering. TTS. It has a lining that makes the dress fit a little tighter than the gathered look that it has.

Thanksgiving vibes

I wore this for thanksgiving and to work once as well. It’s fun and flattering. One small complaint the opening at the ankle is very small and taking regular size steps was impossible. I found the shoulders to be a bit large.

LOVE this dress!

Such a cute dress! I got so many compliments and wore it multiple times. It is slightly difficult to walk fast/far in unless you hold it up, but for parties and dinners where it’s mostly standing it’s perfect. Very flattering for 27 weeks pregnant
