Comfortable, if a bit conservative
The soft cotton fabric is very comfortable, but the dress is a bit conservative for my style

Very comfortable, if a bit conservative
The soft cotton fabric is very comfy. The style is a bit conservative for my tastes though. It's a true wrap dress so despite the conservativeness it will fly open in wind etc

Stays put
Structure in the plunging neckline meant it stayed put even while dancing vigorously. Had to trim some of the fringe that had come loose but not a big deal. Comfortable and flattering.

Comfortable and flattering
Shoulder straps are adjustable which helps with the typical jumpsuit torso length issues. My only wish is that the buttons in the front were sewn shut - since there's a side zipper they are unnecessary, and then it wouldn't pull

Comfy and flattering, but had a hole in it
I liked this a lot except that it had a hole in the front, so I couldn't wear it

Too long, lumpy chest
I love the concept, but it was dragging on the floor (I'm 5'8") and the boning in the chest made it all lumpy. Might be a bit better for someone with bigger breasts but I think it would still be kind of lumpy tbh

Cropped and bulky
Cropped and bulky cut made this difficult to style

Unflattering fit, missing original ring
Decorative ring had been replaced with one that doesn't peek out of the fabric, which didn't look as good in my opinion. Also I just generally found the fit to be disappointingly unflattering.

Thin, floppy and unstructured
Seems like it should be structured but isn't, flops around awkwardly

Bulky and clingy
Despite appearances this dress is quite bulky, and the lace wants to cling to the under layer. I couldn't get it to lay right so I didn't wear it.

On trend, comfortable, great fit
Strongly considered keeping them but the color seems likely to go out of fashion quickly

High-quality but a little long
I loved the look and texture of this, but it was a little too long. I am 5'8" and I had to hike it up when I walked to avoid tripping.

Would have been great if it were not slightly too short in the torso
Aesthetically I loved this, and the material felt great, but it was ever so slightly too short in the torso, giving me the dreaded camel toe, so I didn't end up wearing it. (I am 5' 8" for reference)

Great for standing, less flattering while seated
This was comfortable, fit well, and the elastic waistband is forgiving. It's still a little chilly for shorts and no sleeves so I wore it over leggings and a long-sleeve shirt. The back pockets are unfortunately non-functional, but the front pockets are real. My biggest caveat is that this gaps/sags unflatteringly around the chest while seated. With a lot of fidgeting every time I sat down I could get it to a reasonable state, but that's not really redeeming. But if you're going to an event where you'll mostly be standing that won't be an issue.

Cozy and a little elevated
This is a little nicer than a solid-color sweater would be. It's a little oversized and baggy but I think that's intentional. It was cozy, and pairs well with peachy/rose-gold makeup and accessories.

Comfy, casual
Definitely fits my aesthetic, though it's not really anything special. The flannel fabric is comfy.

Way too small
I was nowhere near being able to zip and fasten these pants - I probably would have needed at least 2 sizes larger. It's a shame because I did like them a lot! Might try renting them in a larger size in the future.
