A little baggy
I’m usually a 12-14 and these were stretchy and a little baggy. I’m waiting for the 12 to compare now

Didn’t wear it
I don’t mind the cutout and the material was very soft and comfortable. My primary issue was that there wasn’t much distinction between chest and stomach and it kind of looked like a single blob torso. I have a longer torso so that maybe played in.

Great shirt
I got both the L and XL. I preferred the longer length on the XL and both stretched pretty well. I wore it 3x which is a record for things I’ve rented in the past

It’s short
The dress fits great and it looks amazing but whoa it’s short! With tights or nylons it would be better for me. Otherwise it’s a very nice dress for Vegas

Buy it
I love anything Ralph Lauren Jersey dress. This one doesn’t disappoint. The sizing is the same as my closet full of other Jersey dresses of various length and style. The sparkle is not too over the top. I bought it.

Favorite jacket
This jacket is tailored well and you can wear with a chunky belt or not. It closes and doesn’t pull at the buttons. It’s great with a pair of vinyl pants or the matching skirt. I bought it

Magical
I love this dress so much. The sequin detailing and colors and structure are incredible. I wear a small lace bralette under it rather than using tape. After renting it a few times I decided to just buy it. It’s a showstopper.

Fits great
It doesn’t have a lot of stretch but it fits nice for someone with an hourglass shape. I needed to use a little bit of double sided tape to keep the little keyhole beneath the bra area from riding up. Overall, the dress was great and the price was amazing. I bought it

Amazing
This jacket is awesome. I paired it with vinyl pants and a mesh top and it’s a great look. The fit is perfect. It’s vinyl, so it gets a bit hot. That’s ok. I bought it.

They fit fine but the button up fly and high waist combined with thick fabric and no stretch made for mom jeans. Didn’t wear them.

Absolutely perfect.
This dress fit perfect, the slit not too high and cut not too low. I got the 12, my usual size, and it was too big so consider sizing down. It has a lot of stretch. I bought it

Meh
It was very thick and boxy and had no shape. I wasn’t flattered and didn’t end up wearing it. It was like wearing my grandfather’s giant hunting coat

Beautiful
This is a great fit, comfortable, and easy to wear without shapewear. I ended up buying it. It’s a little awkward in length I may get it shortened by about 2-3” so it’s not sitting mid calf on me .

Well made
This is a high quality piece which fits well. There is no stretch and it’s a bit boxy. I wish it was a bit more flattering. That said, it looks really professional and expensive.

It’s thin and skin tight. Kind of boring and not something that looks special.

It’s beautiful
The shirt is definitely sparkly, not for work. It fit well. The small button at the bust wouldn’t stay closed but some fashion tape did the trick

It’s short
I had to wear it with leggings in June because the length was scandalously short. I’m 5’8” and it’s more like a tunic shirt.

Great color and fit
The shoulder pads are a bit over the top but the seams around the waist are really slimming. This would be perfect for a professional presentation or interview. Spanx would be needed

Short and tight
The main iss ie I had was that it has uneven hem lines throughout the garment as if it is a bandage dress which was wrapped askew and the hems are raised. The fabric was a little too scratchy and polyester feeling as well. Finally, the waist was not well defined so I needed to wear a Moro jacket to break it up

Child sized
The XL looked like a sweater owned by my 12 year old niece. The photo shows long torso and arms. The arms were 6” too short and it was midriff bearing.

Unique
Great cut and good fit. Was flattering. Didn’t get 5 stars because the waist rolled and wouldn’t stay flat unless ironed, likely from multiple wears and uses. I think the item I got is just a bit defective. It would need to go to a tailor to reinforce the waist to be worth using frequently
