Not flattering
I really wanted to like this dress, and in theory, it was great. But on, it just looked frumpy on me.

Roomy but still love it
At first I thought this was just too big and shapeless to wear but it grew on me. It’s so insanely comfortable and cool for the summer.

Not flattering
The bust is cut strangely narrow in front so that I was spilling out the sides/underarms. 36D in a size 12 dress. Otherwise it fit fine. Just couldn’t figure out how to keep the girls in even with tape so didn’t wear.

Fun dress but too big
I’m a pretty standard size 12 and this was just too big. Ended up looking too sack-like to wear. But a fun and interesting dress.

Weird fit
Didnt end up wearing. It’s a cute dress but clearly not made for my body. I think straighter body types would work better. My curves were clearly in the wrong places or something for this.

Just ok
Wore this on vacation and conceptually I love it. It’s a pretty dress but on, the color is just blah. There are seams on the chest that stuck out in a weird way that I didn’t love and it seemed a little too short for the style on me and I’m not exactly tall!

Meh, but love the other color
I own this in black and love it. This color is a little too bright for my tastes but it’s still a crazy fun and comfortable jumpsuit. If it’s your color, go for it. The back is open so have the right accessories.

Love it! Stylish jumpsuit!
I wore this on a work trip in Mexico. It’s surprisingly heavy and nice fabric, so it drapes well. But it’s still sleeveless so good for heat. The front panels give it more style. It was fun to wear!

Cute basic little dress
Cute and easy dress. I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. Perfect fit. Super comfortable. Not at all as boring as I thought it would be. Kept for a second month to wear to a conference.

A little bold in the front but why not?
Not something I would normally dare wear with the open front. But it fit perfectly so I just got out the roll of boob tape and said why not? It’s a beautiful dress. Incredibly light weight but still well constructed. I kept it for a second month to wear it to another party.

Odd fit but still love it
I have a short torso and to get the waist to sit right with a nice drape on the top, I had to leave the tie on the back with a wider than expected gap. I assume it would fit someone completely flat chested much better but this is on a size 12. It worked by leaving the tie loose and letting the shoulders hang a little more. And it definitely needs boob tape.

Oddly fun but unwearable
I would have loved to be able to wear this. It’s funky definitely a statement, but the waist was too tight and I found it really hard to wear. The shoulders slipped off and the pleats made my hips look bigger than they already are. Had the waist for better, I might have taped the shoulders and worn it anyway.

Weird fit
I have a high waist and this was still almost too high of a waist for me. And it’s a tight waist. It’s cute but just a weird fit. I couldn’t get it to look or sit right.

W or W/out belt, it works
Flowy silk, if you want more of a mumu look you can wear without the tie. Or use it to give some shape. This is super comfy and light.

I had to pin the neckline because it’s too deep for work or for cleavage. But this is a darling dress. Fits beautifully and hides some things.

Super cute
This is an odd little dress and a tad tight in the chest. If I was any bigger I couldn’t squeeze into it but I loved it. From afar it looks fairly traditional but as you get closer it gets more interesting.

This is a super easy comfortable dress. Nothing over the top; just a basic dress that still looks cute with the sleeves a slightly lower back hem. The fabric is super soft as well. Perfect for everyday.

No shape
I wanted to like this dress but it hides any shape. There was no way to use the ties to pull it in at all; in fact, they seemed to be part of the problem because they “gapped” a little at the waste. Argh.

Compliments!
Love it! It’s a little snug in the bust but didn’t gap. So cute with black tights. The ties on the sleeves were such a fun touch. I had several women comment on this dress. it did get some static with tights but I carry a small can of static guard in my bag anyway.

Curious but stylish sweater
I love this sweater but it’s quirky. One sleeve is offset from the other (another reviewer shows) so it felt “off” but looked great. The waist is snug but the chest is boxy. I had wanted to wear it with looser pants thinking it would be a looser fit but it looks best with something more fitted in the waist and hips. Ended up loving it but it was a challenge to wear.

Favorite Jessica Beard dress ever
Although I can usually wear a 10 in Jessica Beard dresses, the 12 worked well on this one to give room in the hips so it didn’t slide up as much especially when sitting and to make the top drape well. The fabric is delicious, and the conservative collar makes a shorter dress more conservative. One of my favorites!

Meh
I could not get the blousy top to look right. The colors are less appealing than I had hoped. And the fabric is not exactly soft to the touch. All in all, just blah.

Nice fit but needs tape
This was a nice option for a casual party and it fit great. The snap at the v-neck was awkward and didn’t lay flat. Fabric tape will help.

This ended up just being so large and shapeless. I have other items like this that work better. Maybe it was just too big but it felt and looked like a tent.

Absolutely loved this dress. Wore it to dinner on a luxury cruise. It was stunning. Stood out. It’s feminine without too many ruffles. Hugged the curves in all the right ways.

I love this. I thought it would be too dowdy or “cute” but it’s perfect. Feminine without being overly silly. It’s versatile. Can go with casual pants or a silk skirt. It needs a good steaming on arrival.
