Pretty but not my style
The cut was a little dowdy for me. The neckline isn't my favorite. Also didn't love the feel of the fabric, felt pretty synthetic. But the print is pretty and the fit was easy. I can see this working if you have a more conservative dress code at work.
Scarf Neck Dress
Derek Lam 10 Crosby x RTR
Size Worn: 52
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34H
Kind of difficult
I'm closer to a 14 than a 16, but this dress in S (14/16) was huge. Like almost everything else it's made for a super tall person, but also it's kind of baggy. Would probably look more straight cut than curve hugging even if I sized down--like it's meant to be sort of flowy maybe but I don't think that makes sense for the style of the dress. My bust and hips are both 44" and going off of US's size chart this shouldn't have been so big. Also hated the material, seemed cheap.
Black Asymmetric Hem Dress
Rodarte X Universal Standard
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34H
Too small but really pretty
Too small in the bust and hips. The measurements for the 14 are more like a 12. So sad because the dress was really unique and beautiful, and I loved the fabric.
Gingham Tie Neck Dress
Great Jones
Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"

So fun!!
It's really fun and the fabric is heavy, beautiful. I'm really busty and this dress didn't pull in any weird ways across the chest. Looks great with thigh high boots.
Jasmine Dress
STINE GOYA
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14

Bust: 34H
Not great if you are busty
My bust is 44" (34H) so I sized up so I wouldn't get those stretchy lines from bust to armpit. But while the dress was (pleasantly) sack-like everywhere else, it was still to small/ kinda weird in the bust. The armholes are big and my bra would show when I moved my arms. A miss for me.
Crepe Augusta Geneva Dress
Universal Standard
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34H
beautiful but runs small
I love the cut, the flow of the fabric, the print -- gorgeous! I'm a solid 14 and I had to wear this high on my waist, up to my bra line, for it to work. It's super long. I'm 5'4 and if I didn't wear it up so high I'm afraid it would drag on the floor. Even with all these things considered, I loved it. It looks great with an oversize sweater.

Beautiful but runs small
Really beautiful fabric, simple and very versatile cut, but unfortunately too small. The L fits like 10/12, not 12/14 (my hips are 44" for reference, and though I could button them it wasn't cute). Also they sat lower on my hips than expected, a few inches below my natural waist.
