Runs small and need a longer torso
This really isn’t for petite or short-torso; the straps are really long. Also runs very small.

Wow it’s SMALL!!
I received an order today with 5 items, all size 0 or XS. All of them fit except this dress, which I couldn’t even begin to zip. I think I would have had to order a medium and I’m a true 0. It’s SO small.

Way too small and awkward cut & fabric
I am usually a 0 and I couldn’t even zip the 0. I didn’t even try the 2 because I didn’t like the fabric or cut.

So Cute!
I wore this to a semi-formal winter event and it was perfect. I am 5’1 and it was just short enough on me; I think it would be way too short if you are much taller. I definitely had to go up a size as it runs small.

Beautiful!
Loved this dress! Wore it to a gala with a “floral semi-formal” dress code and it was perfect. Definitely runs a little snug, I sized up one size. Fabric is thick and doesn’t wrinkle much.

Sexy and adorable at the same time!
Wore this for a Christmas in July party and it was so fun. Fit perfectly, I am 5'1 120lbs. Didn't need to wear a bra.

So adorable
This top is just so sweet and adorable. Runs a little small for Kate Spade, which I generally thinks runs big. So this top for me ran TTS (just small for KS). I usually wear a small in KS but took a medium in this (I'm usually between a small & medium in other brands, but probably more often a medium).

This is a cute jacket but very, very bright. I'm. 6-8 and went with the large but should have done medium. Will rent again in smaller size.

Beautiful but low cut!
This dress is an absolute show stopper but be warned it is very low cut. The fabric is thick but not heavy and drapes really beautifully. I'm a 4-6 and wore a Medium so I think it runs a little small.

Unwearable- way too short
I'm 5'2 and have a short torso and even with high-waisted jeans this was way too short.

Stunning!
This dress is gorgeous! The color is so vibrant; I really stood out in a sea of black dresses. Ran small in the waist for me, but generous in the bust. I'm typically a 4 and the bust in the 4P fit perfectly but the waist was way too tight. 6P was a tad large in the bust but it still worked.

Gorgeous colors and so flattering!
I felt like a million bucks in this dress! The colors are so vibrant and the cut is extremely flattering. I'm an apple shape and this really made my waist appear smaller. The length was perfect for me (5'2). I will likely be purchasing this dress I love it so much.

So Small!!
I'm usually a size 4, sometimes a 6 and I could barely zip up the 6. The chest fit great but the waist was super super tiny. Otherwise it's a gorgeous dress

Makes a Statement!
This dress is very stretchy which I loved. I think it runs a little small but with the stretch it was ok. Just more form-fitting; for more of a sheath look definitely go up a size. Makes a statement!

Runs really small in waist
I'm usually a 4 and the 4P fit perfectly in the chest but I couldn't zip it. 6 would have been too big in chest.

Stunning!
I loved this dress and felt like a million bucks in it. I'm usually a 4 and a 30D and the bust was generous but fit me ok. If you are smallest chested maybe size down? The waist does have some stretch. My dress was probably the most unique at the event we attended; the polka dots are so fun but it's still a formal dress. Love.

Loved it so much I bought it!
I rented the 6 in this because I loved it and that was the only size available. I'm typically a 2-4 and the 6 was huge on me. I ended up purchasing it on my own and went with a 0 which fit perfectly. This is a very classic dress that I know I'll wear for years to come.

Great for Christmas Eve Mass
This dress has kind of an awkward fit but I still liked it. I'm typically a 2-4 and wore the 0 but the bust was a little tight. I should have gotten a 2. Overall I'd say this dress runs tight in the bust but big overall.

Gorgeous but the buttons are a problem
This top is absolutely stunning and so flattering. Unfortunately the buttons on the back just don't stay closed. So many other reviews said this, so I safety pinned them all shut. This worked but at one point I bent over and a button just popped right off. I want so badly to purchase this but it's just not practical. I'd rent it again maybe for pictures but not to wear out and about.

Adorable but very wrinkly
I rented this for a night out in Chicago. It was a little outside of my comfort zone but I loved it! My only complaint is that it's a cotton fabric and very wrinkly. I don't know how you could iron it; I had to spend about 30 minutes with my steamer to make it wearable. It is a fuller volume top but I'm pretty petite and wore it with tight black pants so I think it worked.

Beautiful & Soft!
This sweater is such a classic. It's super warm and soft, not itchy for me at all. I'm typically an XS but got a S as Tory Burch typically runs small for me. I think I would have preferred the XS. It still worked, just a little more of an oversize look.

Flattering dress for curvy petites!
I wore this to a wine tasting event and really loved it. I think Shoshanna dresses are, in general, great for curvier/bustier girls and this was no exception. I did size up because the waist was a little tight. I'm typically an 8 but the 10 was more comfortable for an event with a lot of eating & drinking. :) Not sure why my picture is so off-center!

Perfect for Busty Girls!
I rented this dress for a night out in Las Vegas, and it was absolutely perfect! I am a 34DD (sometimes DDD) so a lot of dresses are way too tight in the bust for me, so I end up having to size up and then have the waist taken in. I own a couple of Shoshanna dresses and my experience with those is that they fit me true-to-size, giving ample room in the chest without being too big everywhere else. This dress was no exception! Shoshanna, in general, is just a great brand for busty girls, and this dress is fun and sexy.
