Comfortable and easy!
This was a backup style for me after the first pick didn’t fit. I was extra cautious picking a dress that wasn’t too form- fitting, and this worked perfectly. My only critique is that I wish the lining of the dress were prettier, especially with the dramatic wide sleeves, the interior lining was a forgotten detail. A black lining would have worked better.

Should have sized up two sizes
The dress couldn’t zip past the bust line, even though I sized up to a 14. Beautiful dress though!

Too small to zip
I’m a 34h, usually a size 12, and this dress wouldn’t zip past my chest. Gorgeous color and material, but had to call in a replacement dress for my event. Size up if you’re busty!

Comfortable!
I ordered both sizes 8 and 10- the dress was brand new with tags on. The 8 was a comfortable fit, floor length with 3in heels. Fabric was thick with a good amount of stretch. My one criticism is the lining of the dress tended to visibly bunch up when walking.

Normal blue jeans
I was curious to try these expensive jeans. They were ok. There was good stretch, but I prefer more structure in my denim. True to size.

Smart for Office!
This was a great look for the office, especially in 20 degree weather. The flannel kept me warm, and the style looked very smart! I buttoned it up, like the model, and that really dresses it up.

Major Hygge Vibe
This dress was warm! Perfect for a cold winter's day. I sized down to the medium, but I feel I could have sized down to a small in this. It was a bit static-y over leggings, but the length still worked. Also, there are pockets! That was a nice surprise!

Many compliments
Such a unique dress with the sleeve and hem cutouts. I felt the dress kind of stretched as I wore it throughout the day, but I loved it anyway. The dress materials and craftsmanship were top quality.

Cozy!
The fit was snug, but flattering thanks to the thicker fabric. I wore this on a cold, blustery day and this dress kept me warm and cozy.

Work Appropriate and Cozy!
This was true to size, but the style is over-sized. A cinch belt at the waist gives it a more structured fit. I was complimented on the style and colors and it goes with everything!

Quality Piece!
True to size, the print is pretty (bright blue and pink details). The loop buttons were a surprise, and they elevate the style of this shirt even more!

Lovely Color and Unique Style
I ordered the large and x-large in this style. Both dresses were a bit worn, but the x-large was in pretty poor shape. The seams were out of place, perhaps overstretched, so that the inside lining showed. Also the neckline had lost its structure. Thankfully, the large fit better, though the zipper was a bit tough to navigate with the thicker fabric. Each night before the event, I zipped and unzipped the dress to hopefully ease it for the big day. On the day of the event, the zipper worked beautifully and the dress was a hit! I had many compliments on the shade of this dress- it is a brick red. I was comfortable all night. The thick fabric was snug and supportive but I recommend wearing shape-wear underneath. The length was perfect with my 3-in heels.

Great look for a wedding!
The reviews were right- this dress runs small. I sized up one size and then an extra size for my back up- the one size up was a perfect fit. This dress is so pretty- the ruching is very flattering and the hemline is higher than the skirt overlay, which made it fun to dance in- I loved showing a little leg, especially when the rest of the dress is pretty conservative. I styled it with nude sandals, much like the dress model, and simple stud earrings- I felt confident and beautiful. This is a great dress.
