A lot of fabric
This was not flattering on my short frame. Too much fabric and not enough structure.

A lot of fabric
There is so much fabric. It is incredibly long which makes it hard to tuck in. It is a well made shirt though

Frilly Details
The opening at the top was a little bit tight (material does not stretch much) but fit true to size. Was really comfy while also being stylish.

Great Everyday Tote
This tote was high quality and easily fit my laptop along with plenty of extra room for all my things. Gorgeous burgundy color. Would highly recommend and am now very interested in this brand which I had previously not heard of.

Unique Neckline
Loved the crisscross neckline on this sweater that made it standout. Runs slightly small so I'm glad I sized up, mainly due to the cropped length. Lots of compliments on the rusty red sweater.

Fun dress for work
I normally wear a zero but am glad I sized up like several of the other reviewers mentioned. The arms would have been too tight with the zero and they were still snug with the 2. The front tends to pop open so an undershirt was needed. Overall a fun pattern for work; received lots of compliments.

Gorgeous dress, more green than white
I rented this dress for a wedding and was worried that the dress would be too white based on the website picture. Luckily, the dress is actually a very pale green in person. Fits true to size, is a high quality fabric and the halter straps on the neckline give the dress a special touch. I received lots of compliments and loved the flowy feel of the dress.

Gorgeous pattern but runs large
I rented this for a spring black tie wedding. The print was beautiful but unfortunately the dress was way too large. Having purchased Parker clothing before, I have found that the brand runs true to size but unfortunately that was not the case with this dress. I would not recommend this dress if you are short and petite otherwise it will not fit.

Gorgeous Dress
From the pictures, I thought the material would be stretchier than it actually was which is neither a good nor bad thing, just different from what I had expected. It is a very high quality fabric, lays nicely and fits true to size. I would highly recommend this dress for a black tie event.

Great "southern" style, spring dress.
I rented this dress for a derby party and it definitely fit the theme. The cut of the dress is very flattering. Due to the tulle in the dress, it does have some "poof" (more so than it shows in the picture of the model) and you can definitely feel the boning in the dress. However, both of these features contribute to the illusion of a very pronounced hourglass figure. The v-cut at the top of the dress does expose quite a bit of cleavage for those on the bustier side which is something to keep in mind if attending a more modest event.

Very feminine dress
I rented two dresses for a spring wedding and ended up wearing the Milly "Indigoing Your Way" dress instead. This dress was very pretty and very feminine and I loved the way the top of the dress fit. However, the lower of the half of the dress was a bit "baggier" than I would have liked. As the dress is not an a-line dress I hoping it would fit more on the slim side (as it looks on the model) but that was not the case. The dress does fit true to size though.

The print was perfect for a spring wedding!
I rented two dresses for a spring wedding and this was the one I ended up wearing. The keyhole cutout in the front and the cutouts in the back added a little something extra to the dress but were still modest enough for a wedding. The dress was very comfortable and allowed for easy movement/dancing/sitting throughout the wedding. The dress fit true to size and the length was prefect for my height. I was nervous that the keyhole cutout would gape and expose too much cleavage but that was not the case. Great dress that I would highly recommend.

The dress fit great!
Since the dress itself is slightly heavy I was worried I would be pulling it up all night long but the "sticky" band around the top of the dress prevented that from happening which was a huge plus! The dress was a little too long for my liking as I'm on the shorter side. The petite size probably would have fit better length wise but it was unavailable when I was renting the dress. Great dress for a formal affair!
