Very good fit in hips, The leg area looks like Dad man jeans on a short person.
Very Nice color and fabric. The zipper flap is oversized. On me this style looks like your wearing your football player boy friends jeans till yours come out of the dryer.

Giorgia Silk Neck Tie Blouse
Ulla Johnson

Very good fit and perfect design of the top. The shinny satin skirt combo is its shortcoming.

Nice design and fit but the fabric sheen ruins this blouse.

Classic Wool Coat

No reason to rent a flat saggy oversized top.
This is made with heavy thick fabric which returns to its original flat shape. You could wear a cardboard version of this and it would look the same.

Almost perfect apart from the color. The beautiful deep chocolate turns to neon aubergine in sun.

Fit was too large for a size 6-8. I sized up but it didn't help the look. The skirt spins around

Lots of pound adding fabric. Armholes are way too large. Very heavy dress. Not flattering.

Sleeveless Ruched Mesh Maxi Dress
Ted Baker London
Size Worn: M

Nice style, fit and fabric. Beware this is like a mini-skirt since the pleated skirt is semi-sheer.

Semi-Sheer Knit Midi Dress
Derek Lam 10 Crosby x RTR
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 4"

Odd fit even with correct sizing - not comfortable
This was tight under arms and scratchy. The fit was correct without gapping on the buttons. Very odd fit with flat collar. Disappointed

Not flattering at all. Beautiful fabric for drapery.
Missed with style, fabric texture. Construction. Beautiful color but too shinny.

Fayetta Embossed Bubble Skirt
Sea New York
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 126lbs
Bust: 34DD
Nice exterior but way too difficult to use.
Tough to navigate a flexible twisting purse with 2 hands and the zipper opened. I loved it at first sight but wanted to return it shortly afterwards. Frustrations increase every time I tried to put anything in or find my keys in it. Unexpected dislike. Very nice leather woven texture but just a fail in function.

Striped Poplin Balloon Hem Midi Dress
Sea NY x RTR
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 132lbs
Bust: 34DD
Runs 2 sizes too large, beautiful print in soft floppy fabric.
The sleeves are bell shaped. The oversize look could get sloppy looking if it is not tucked in. The fabric is buttery soft and floppy. I wear a size 8 top typically. I ordered a 4 and it was still too big.

Gold overlay lace vines attached to a black sheer netting topper.
Slim fitting but okay to walk - just no running. Flatter fit when this is sized correctly. A strapless bra is required.

Blue Cosima Nap Dress
Hill House Home
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 132lbs
Bust: 34DD
Very wide shoulders for an athletic shape, beautiful color and fabric
The shoulder ride band was porky too wide. The fabric does stretch but it was too thick to pin or tape smaller without being bulky. I have wide shoulders and this was too wide. On this dress if the top doesn’t fit smoothly it is very noticeable. The color and fabric is just perfectly jewel green.

Gigantic, wide, super long, enormous and unusable.
Skip these unless you are a 7’ sumo wrestler. The fabric also had striped misprinted dark areas.

Awfully Ugly Print - like a skinned sick cat
Fit was fine but so very ugly, hard to not stare and wonder what they were thinking to use a pale pink base color for a tiger print. The blotches of tiger print are off color and off shape with random lines, clear rigid shapes and blurred smeared shapes. The style is fine and the flesh tone under slip. The print and color tone for anyone's skin tone is just SO bad.

Understated Elegance! Beautiful tailoring and fabric. Black velvet top, black w/navy brocade lower.
Navy satin shoes were a perfect match. Body hugging but not restrictive. Zipper was easy and flat. Not too long for 5'4" with 2" heel. This is too nice of a dress to not wear heels. Side slit was perfect and not too high even when sitting. The lined top had lots of room but didn't look baggy.

Printed Mesh Dress
Rosetta Getty x RTR
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 34DD
Stunning fabric w/ perfect tailored design.
Top had lots of spare room but fit perfectly. A strapless bra is needed since the back opening is wide. The puff sleeves will need to be fluffed up since the shipping bag flattens them. Satin heels were a good match. The sequins were comfortable without issues. The floral embroidered brocade is on top of the sequins. Very good dress for a wedding guest or holiday party. There is a back slit that helps with walking and getting into a low car.
