High quality fabric
I originally rented this in 12 but couldn't button bodice. The 14 was better but now it was too low cut and shoulders too broad. The dress has a high-low drop waist so not terribly flattering on a pear shape. I wore a loose fit light weight red (perfect color match) scoop neck pullover over dress to camouflage the hip area and troubleshoot the low cut & wide shoulder issue. I popped collar out of sweater and felt very pretty and appropriately dressed at work.

Felt like a summer goddess!
Fit perfectly throughout. Flowing cut made it great for my very wide hips. Wanted to keep it but no budget this month ... maybe will later on!

Body conscious fit - it shows every curve. I wore for WFH so on zoom it was perfect.

I felt so feminine in this skirt
Absolutely loved everything about this skirt except for waist which ran small on me. In all fairness I wore this post vacation so my waist was likely a bit wider than usual. I couldn't zip it all the way however the fabric attached belt kept it up. The belt was nice because it wasn't too long or bulky worn with untucked top. The length of the skirt is long. My inseam is 33.5 and it hit just above my ankles.

Easy and light
This fit large on me and at first I didn't like the look but it grew on me. The dress is just so comfortable in summertime heat. Even the lining is cotton so this dress really breathes. Pockets! And adjustable straps which I require being short-waisted. Pop artsy print is a happy winning vibe for summer.

Sleeveless Floral Midi Dress

Great for pear shapes!
Fit well in shoulders and bust - roomy and light without being too large. Blouse floated over my hips while being trim through ribs. Very slenderizing. Nice floral print in slightly cool red. Only complaint might be the ruffles which require ironing if you want them to lie flat. I don't iron but was fine with the natural curling. I liked the neck tie but wore it loose hanging to complete the slightly unkempt look from my lack of ironing.

Red Vintage Floral Top

Classic and feminine
Lovely dress. Perfect with pearls on zoom. Small in bust ... accommodated my 38B but I think much larger would be too tight. Snug in waist/rib cage but not so much that I couldn't breathe. Lining can be warm at times. Accentuated my sway back and ample derrière hence the three stars. I wouldn't have been comfortable wearing out as it really didn't flatter me IRL. Fine for zoom at work though.

Great for spring or fall
Beautiful high quality fabric and lovely feminine print. Ran a bit large on me in shoulders where I'm narrow but even at hip where I run large. Later purchased one size down and it's perfect!

Rent this!
Stunning jacket, easy to dress up or down. RTR sent me 14 instead of 12 so fit was large on me. Length is great and jacket looks good buttoned or open. Fabric is soft and has give. Feels light on - not heavy or warm. I wore with white pants and light green shell but with so many great colors in jacket the combos were nearly endless.

Cute and sexy
Fun dress! Was able to skip bra and adjustable straps mostly stayed put. Dress didn't have quite enough flare over my hips so pockets bunched a little. Also though there is some give to the fabric it was a tad tight over my middle. I did have to adjust frequently- pull up bust, pull down skirt. I paired with orange moto to hide the bunchy pocket issue.

This is a lovely summer sun dress! The colors and print are quite fun. Dress is TTS but looked a little blah shape wise on me so paired with hot pink moto to cure that.

This is a beautiful top!
The site picture doesn't do justice. The floral print is photographic and really stunning. The fit is spot on and the fabric is light for polyester. I wore it with a merlot vegan moto in 80 degree heat in absolute comfort. The loose fit is great for pear shape as it easily skims over the hips and hi-lo cut is very attractive. This top is so different from any I own and I loved it so much I am keeping it!

Lovely and light
Very loose fit and lightweight silk dress. Tie waist and buttons on side slit are a great touch. I have narrow shoulders and probably could have worn a 48, but the 50 was serviceable. I wore with orange vegan moto jacket and bright pink flats to bring out those colors in the print.

Love this top!!! So cool, chic and pretty.
The fabric breathes nicely so it wasn't too warm for a day in 70s to 80s. It also has a bit of give to if you've got hips (like me) it still fits well. Very classy lady like look. I paired with a light blue jacket that complemented the many colors in this top.

So pretty for spring!
As others have noted, while it is a cotton blazer it is very thick and warm. I wore on a cool spring day with temps in 50s to 60s. Colors are lovely. Wore with chocolate brown long sleeve mesh tee and jeans to bring out those colors.

The elastic on the sleeves and waist dug into me a bit. The hook and eye closure in front stays well once you find it.

Felt beautiful in this dress
The dress is very well made with gorgeous fabric. There is not a lot of give so it felt snug around the abs, but not uncomfortable. The zipper sticks at waist (common) so I zipped to just above the trouble spot and pulled it on over my head and completed zip. Had I been more than my B cup I doubt this would have worked.

Loved the femininity of this dress
The dress fit well, not great, but well enough that I would have purchased at the lower Friday night price that shot up on Saturday morning. The dress has no stretch but the 14 accommodated my hips but meant the waist was a tad loose. But the print and style and quality were all wow-worthy.

Very nice MIsa LA piece
Piece had seen better days wear-wise. Clumps of loose thread on back side of smocking at waist. The asymmetrical hem wasn't comfortable in my work setting. I do like this brand however ... own two dresses purchased from local boutique so I can wholly recommend their dresses.

Fit well but just didn't wow me
Liked enough to purchase and not return but buy price increased from 2 digits Friday night to three digits Saturday morning when I packed it up for return. I would have paid the lower buy price because it was a cute, versatile piece that fit well but it wasn't fabulous enough for the sudden price increase.

Fun sweater
The wool is not scratchy and the color + print so fun. I have a pear shape and some shorter boxy sweaters just don't work for me. This one is the exception and I really enjoyed wearing it ... repeatedly!

Beautiful dress!
Like another reviewer, I was unimpressed when I first tried it on. Definitely a tad frumpy with no accessories. So I added a wide black boots and plum moto jacket and black boots. Now I love love love this dress. It has a lovely shape and drape. The fabric is also quite nice. Good weight - not too heavy or flimsy. The pattern and colors are just stunning. I may have to keep this one!

So much plaid
I wore a black pullover sweater over this to break up the neck-to-knee plaid visual and it saved this dress from going back unworn.

Size was right but had weird waste seam that was too low on me. Arm holes gaped and skirt clung in worst ways possible. Good material and pretty print but sent back unworn.

Cute and on-trend
Has some stretch in fabric which made it fit perfectly. I wore a thin black mock neck t underneath to add warmth and modesty for office. Layered a black moto over this. Felt confident and polished. Was tempted to purchase but am on weight loss journey so not buying anything currently!
