Sandro does it again!

Perfect business chic (hits just above the knee for me - I'm 5”0) Super easy to wear with regular undergarments, flats or heels.

Chic and work appropriate stunner

Love this black dress with gold buttons - so beautiful. Fabric is thick. Size is just right. I did not wear a bra. It’s not necessary.

Perfect black dress

Was obsessed with this dress and would’ve purchased if a better price. It looked so elegant and could be buttoned all the way up or unbuttoned one or two. It fits a little on the boxy side but still was so flattering

This was a perfect length to feel comfortable at work, and the material is very sturdy. It is not super form-fitting, but still very cute.

Obsessed

I think this dress runs true to size for what it’s intended to look like - it’s a shift dress so it’s supposed to be a little oversized. I absolutely loved how it fit and can see myself renting it again!

Sleek and elevated

Loved everything about this dress and wish I could keep! It is a heavier material but I loved the way it kept its shape and felt tailored. Amazing buttons and stitching and fit was perfect. I am tall and straight so not sure how it would work on someone shorter or petit.

Really cute with a slick back and pointy toe heels

Material is MUCH heavier than I was expecting. Thought it was going to be more of a black denim material, but it's just black. Still got many compliments on it!!

Flight attendant vibes

I liked this but found it just a little long for my taste and thought it was hard to find a good shoe to go with it to make it more casual. It’s a little dressier than it seems. Aside from that it was comfortable and stylish!

Good work option for petites

Even though my office isn’t even slightly conservative, I rented this as an option when I go back to work next week. The length is good for me at 5’2” and I love the oversized gold buttons. I don’t love how thick and stiff the fabric is because it gives the dress a very boxy look. I prefer a more fitted look, but this was a good one-time rental and would recommend it for a more conservative office than mine.

This dress was on the heavier side but I liked that. I definitely sized up too much, but the length was perfect at this size. The top half was just a bit too big

Great designer quality

This dress fit me perfectly with a little breathing room. A smidge long for me being 5’3. Felt well made, beautiful bold gold buttons. Only thing is the fabric is very thick! A little heavy for summer. and when I sat, bc it’s so thick it bulged over at the waist. Other than that, it’s a nice dress! Would still rent again.
