Fabulous
I wore this for a weekend afternoon event. Absolutely perfect dress. Just the right weight. Be careful what you put in the pockets, anything more heavy than a pen will pull down the sides.

Right in shoulders
This was a very attractive shirt that I wanted to love. It was so tight in my shoulders that if I raised an arm I risked ripping it.

These pants have a very short rise length and dug into my privates SO. MUCH. I had to take them off mid day.

Perfect dress
This dress is perfect. It’s so comfortable, it’s so breezy, POCKETS, and for a wrap dress it’s very modest. 5/5 stars, I want it in every color.

Tit-tacular dress
First off - most important - do NOT get boob tape/NOOD tape to wear with this dress. Even with every single precaution to protect my skin, the tape still peeled off and ripped my skin with it. Get a good actual bra instead. Second, this dress was so comfortable. I got the 16 and the 14. The 16 seemed to fit better and I planned on wearing that one - at the last minute I switched to the 14 and the fit was incredible. It’s stretchy, not very thick (it might be velvet but it’s very thin). The hem slit goes higher than anticipated.

These earrings are great for making a statement but they’re lightweight enough to wear all night long.

Actually unwearable
Even though the tag said XLR, they did not fit on my size 12-16 body. For funsies, I had my size 2 MIL try them on and she said that the waist band cut into her stomach and why did I buy pants that aren't comfortable?

It's fine
This shirt was fine. The shoulders, elbows, and wrists all felt tight and short on me. The ruffle on the button line was not visible in photos and I am NOT a ruffle person. But it looked professional and the fabric was smooth.

Great loose work top
Barely tight in the shoulders maybe? But I have bizarre linebacker shoulders so everything feels tight there. This top is a leeeeettle bit booby, so I fastened it a notch with a small safety pin - plenty of fabric to do this invisibly.

SO COMFY
This is a warm snuggly sweater that is so so comfortable. It has a shorter waist - not at all cropped, but barely hits the waistband of my mid-rise jeans. The arms are long and baggy but the cuffs are tight (without being uncomfortable) and keep the sleeves off your hands. A+, 10/10, would rent again.

This sweater is incredibly soft and snuggly and cuddly. You won't want to take it off. The cuffs are quite large and most coats/jackets won't fit well over them.

I love a giant oversized poncho type sweater and this one fit the bill. Soft, snuggly, comfy, not too warm with the short sleeves, just knocked it out of the park.

A little booby
I ended up pinning the front because it was just a little too booby for my work environment. Besides that one issue, it was a very comfortable and lovely top to wear.

My new favorite sweater
Loved it so much I found one for cheap on Poshmark. Now my new favorite sweater/housecoat. Wear it everywhere. SO COMFY. Warm but the open sleeves give it just the right amount of ventilation.

Flattering and comfortable
I wore this for an engagement party for my sister on a hot night in July. This dress was SO COMFY and SO FLATTERING. It made my 38 weeks pregnant boobs look great, and it made my ginormous bump look cute again. It wasn't too hot to wear and I was actually able to spend up to five minutes at a time outside. I wanted to keep this dress and not return it. (The weight listed is my Not Pregnant weight; at the time of wearing this size Large I was 5'7", 185# [lay off me, 38 weeks preggo!], and my bust is about 41-42" in a bra.) (I ordered the same dress in XL just in case and ended up sticking with the L.)

Comfy and my bump looked adorable
I rented this dress for my baby shower, held at 6 mos pregnant. I ordered a large (LR) with a medium (MR) as backup size. The medium ended up fitting much better - the large was very loose in the bust; the medium was also a bit loose in the bust for my personal taste but only required 2 pieces of dress tape instead of 6. (FYI - currently in my pregnancy I'm 165#, still 5'7", pregnancy bra size is 38DD.) Dress tape aside, this dress was VERY comfortable, and seriously my baby bump and I looked SO CUTE in it. I wanted to keep this dress and wear it for every hot Texas summer day that I know is coming.

Comfortable and beautiful
I wore this when 13 and a half weeks pregnant. I checked the designer's website in December to make sure I ordered the right size for my measurements, but I might have been able to order down to an 8 (I ended up using a 10); I had no idea at week 9 how big or small I would be in week 13! When wearing the size 10 I was about 150# and maybe a 38D (pregnancy boobs, what can I say). That said, I loved this dress! I did use some fashion tape to secure the dress to my cleavage; after that, I was fancy free the rest of the evening. I was very comfortable, even after eating (the waistline is a bit high, not quire empire); the very full skirt meant that you couldn't even tell I was pregnant. Comfortable and confident - I felt good and knew I looked good. 5/5 to this dress!

So comfy!
This dress was one of the most relaxed things I have ever worn. The fabric was thicker than I'd been expecting. The dress clings in all the right spots, the skirt has just the right amount of swish to it. I cannot emphasize enough how comfortable you will be and how glad you will be that you chose this dress.

Comfortable and fun
The dress was a bit large in the bust for me. It was also extremely long - an 8L - sent at the last minute by RTR because my voices choices were washouts. That said, wearing this dress was a blast. All night I had strangers coming up, asking me to spread the skirt so they could see the design, gushing about the simplicity of the dress and originality of the print. This dress was also darn comfy to wear. I felt like a million bucks.

I felt like a goddess/princess all night
This dress. Is perfect. It matched my skin tone, it flowed like a dream, and it was just perfect. Definitely thinking of renting and wearing as a wedding dress... The 10R runs long - I'm 5'7" and needed a heel height of at least 2" to make it work without gathering up a mountain of tulle every time I tried to walk - and tight - that problem was solved with spanx.
