LOVE IT
So cheerful for winter. Lots of compliments. Weight to warmth ratio is great, lightweight but warm, fabulous lined pockets, hood actually fits nicely when needed, toggle strings for adjustments.

Good concert print BUT
Great print, want to love it, but the oversized shirt and the graphic placement was weird and unflattering.

Odd fit
Beautiful print, warm but heavy, short length but I liked the overall short length at 5’3” Short arms, it’s a warm winter jacket, it should fit the length of your arms!

Graphic peplum turtleneck
Interesting graphic turtleneck. I was surprised the turtleneck is styled with a peplum cut because others mentioned tucking in the top. But viewing the pictures you can see the bottom flare and peplum style. I personally would not want to wear this tucked in pants. I wore as a casual daytime outfit, could be dressed up with a pair of heels or boots. The fabric is nice quality and a nice weight, comfortable, movable, not sheer. The graphic is cool, not exactly my style or normal color palette. Top is a solid choice but not in love with it.

Fuzzi mesh
Love Fuzzi mesh, the main body is double layer so not completely sheer, arms with one layer and are sheer. Cool graphic though not quite my style. Has thumbholes! Very comfortable. The graphic blue pairs perfectly with denim.

That’s 5ft3in with 4in wedges. Waist and front zip tight. Straps are adjustable and back has smocking but still a tight fit. Wore with a sheer mesh top underneath.

Cute!
Cute, hit above knee, comfortable length. There is sparkle but not over the top. Was worried the dress would itch with metallic, sparkle thread but not a problem at all, was very comfortable, nice sweater weight. Dress it up or down easily, wore with sneakers. Appropriate for cooler weather, would be too much for warm weather.

Casual, comfortable, pretty
Very pretty, easy to wear, flattering. Waist cinches with tie. Front is short, even on me at 5 ft 3 in. but for warm weather, appropriate environment, very nice. Watch the skirt in back, you'll need to catch it every once in a while. Arrived brand new. I'll probably hold onto this for a bit. Only complaint, the waist tie has silly tassels; some may like them but in my opinion, I'd prefer a simple tie.

Cute!
Cute dress, not quite as plain as you might think. I notice it's not just gray, there's a hint of blue in the plaid, nice surprise. Cute cut, fits well all around. Current size is size 10 and this dress seems true to size.

Nice
I'm beginning to think for me to size up for best fit, and the chest to lay nicely with DVF. Currently I'm about size 10, sized up to size 12, and with a smaller bust. Fits nicely, versatile, comfortable.

Beautiful dress
Swing style, easy to wear, flattering. Nice weight to the silk fabric, luxurious. Fabric weight helps it wear so well. Slit can be revealing, but you aren't wearing this to be cautious! You can size down with this dress if needed.

Very nice
Fit overall for me large (I ordered large size due to availability) sleeves a little long, but also bear in mind the short styling. With the top being big, it was very comfortable, very easy to wear. Wore this for Christmas. Note the stripes are blue and yellow; from the pics I thought it had green stripes. Love that this top has center snap (wish all dvf did) again making very easy and carefree to wear.

Cool, edgy dress
Edgy styling, runs on the larger side, so i sized down. Im smaller up top, the neckline though revealing, wasnt a problem. And the bottom fit fine through the hips. Asymetric style is cool and open back is sexy.

Very nice.
Flattering, versatile, comfortable with elastic at waist hem, wrists, & neckline. But seems to wrinkle easily, or maybe just shoes wrinkles more visibly. Anyways i love it, but with wrinkle effect it only get 4* from me.

Wow
Beautiful, edgy, striking, flattering. Was concerned about fot thru midsection & sized up to achieve fit. Being shorter, with the fitted cut, the back "bubbles" just a bit. Sime may not mind, or a "temporary fix" may work.

Really?
Comfortable fabric, true to size, super soft, but really? Hard to justify cost of these, which may be the perfect reason to rent / borrow on rotation. The waistband wouldnt lay flat, the inner elastic was rolled...

Love this one...
I love this dress. Runs on the larger side, though yes, its a short dress. I tried in an 8 as well, and the 8 was tent-like; i wore the 6. Super flattering, sexy dress. Recd many compliments. Note the inner slip, and its short too; awareness is key. To note, Ive tried this dress on multiple occassions and recd dresses with quality issues, that is, with snags & tears.

Cute
Cute but i didnt wear it, needed the 10. Also note the keyhole details, may be unflattering if too tight in the midsection. The flare skirt is adorable & versatile. Id consider renting again, but in the larger size

This one is a keeper
True to size, myself being on the shirt side, the halter neck requires an adjustment. Since i bought it, it will be altered. Neckline is flattering but not extreme. Overall, a very flattering, versatile wrap dress. I only wish the belt wrap was a knot wrap, with stretch, as you either sit or stand the wrap/tie may require comfort adjustment.

Flattering & versatile
This may be my overall top pick ever. Very flattering, easy fitting, confortable to wear. Appropriate for many occassions. I wore this traveling, cool, wintertime; knit fabric is suited for cooler temps. No issue with chest, bust, and Im smaller up top. I wore with high heel boots & high heel shoes, worked with both styles. The moment i put this dress on, it was the perfect weight, warmth, the wrap layed perfectly. The arms may be a little long for some peoples preference but no issue to me. I love this dress. I love the green black check. I recd many compliments.

Very nice
Pretty, feminine dress. Seems to run on the larger side, very comfortable, easy to wear. Skirt portion of dress partially lined reveals pretty, sheer bottom to dress. Pretty lace detailing. Dress was near ankle length on me. Nice quality, pretty. I recommend. Could be appropriate for different occassions, dress up or down. I wore it with a cropped leather jacket.

Gorgeous
Georgeous vibrant print. I wore on the shoulders rather than off; more comfortable, didnt have to battle the neckline & for me more flattering. I sized up, didnt want waist discomfort with other noting dress running small and just right. Sizing up, beautiful fit, flattering, several compliments. Well made. Wore with Kate Spade Garden Party necklace; beautiful together. Rent this one
