Nice color, terrible fit.
I was swimming in the dress. I would be willing to try it in a smaller size because the color was quite lovely.

All wrong.
It was lose in parts where it shouldn't have been and tight in others. I lasted a whole minute before taking it off.

Perfection
The dress was soft, silky, and the perfect length for the field trip to the symphony. I added a modestly top underneath because of the cut and received many compliments. I want this dress, if I can ever afford it.

Unexpected sparkle
This weighted dress was perfect for the day of cold weather that we had and when I unzipped my bag to see that this had sparkle, I was happily surprised. The sweater texture would have been a skin irritant if I hadn't worn a slip type material underneath, but I enjoyed this with a pair of booties and little shrug.

Beautiful despite the zipper
I don't know why designers think that tiny zippers can continuously overcome thick seams, but this one has clearly seen some struggles. Ignoring the zipper, this skirt fit perfectly and flowed beautifully. It was great for our career activity and I never feared the wind whipping it up. I received many compliments.

Mediocre
This dress would be pretty for a pool or beach day because the wind certainly takes hold. There is no tie keeping the fabric together and a sudden gust sure has one scrambling to keep the world from seeing what color your underwear were for the day. The snap at the bust is creative, but ineffective for someone with my size bust-- it kept unsnapping. Glad I decided that it was not for work and only wore it to the grocery store.

The 10 fit everywhere except my middle. I would like to try the 12 when it comes into stock.

Amazing fit and feel
This dress was fantastic. The length and neckline was modest enough for work, but still added a camisole underneath for added protection. The fabric was silky and pleasant to have on. One downside is that it showed every single spot where something touched the fabric- like dust, chalk, etc. Paired with booties, it was perfect. Loved it!

Wearing curtains
The fit was fine, although clearly not made for large boobs. The fabric felt strange and the little fuzz strands from everywhere this piece has been touched was distracting. It reminded me of some 1950s curtains, or a 1940s oriental robe. I do not want to wear a robe to work, so I returned it.

Rich color but button gaps an issue.
This outfit had a lovely feel and emerald color, but I had to wear an undershirt with it because from the midline up the buttons liked to cause a gap. It wasn't strain, in fact plenty of room, just the way the fabric happened to move.

Overall comfortable.
The fit was nearly perfect. I had to adjust my bra frequently while wearing this. The colors and feel were wonderful.

Amazing
Paired this with a yellow top and navy cardigan. Received many compliments. The slit isnt too high, so it was perfect for work. The colors are vibrant and the fabric so comfortable.

Didn't fit and didn't wear.
The dress was all wrong all over. Tried it on long enough to look in a mirror and then it went right back in the bag.

So comfortable and lots of compliments.
I wore this to work and it was perfect for a classic professional look- with pockets. It fit perfectly and I just had to add a sports bra cover up underneath because I work at a school. In a corporate position, it would have been just fine. If it becomes a price point I can afford, I am absolutely getting it!

Not for tall people
I wore this for 10 seconds. It definitely does not fit my height, and barely fit my torso.

Not my cup of tea.
The quality of the garment was stellar, the feel and fit was just not for me or my needs. Tight in places it shouldn't have been and loose in places that it should have been tight.

Fantastic feel and fit.
With a smaller chest size, I could have easily worn the 12, but it was perfection from the rib cage up and the length was absolutely wonderful. Lots of compliments. Note: small zipper-- I know others get as nervous as I do with those little ones.

Beautiful fabric and feel, just needed to get the next size up for me.
I requested the 10 because that was what was available and in a previous order, I fit a 10. This designer is not the same type of fit, and I will be looking to try the 12.

Did not fit in the chest.
The quality was great-- not the texture of fabric I was expecting, but not bad. It did not come anywhere close to fitting in the chest area. Depending on the designer, I can fit a 10-14. Maybe this would be best sized up for chest.

Perfect vintage feel for the beach wedding
I felt absolutely perfect in the dress. It was classic, flattering, and was just what I wanted for a beach wedding I was attending. Don't forget to latch your bra straps to the helpful snaps with the dress because as you wear the dress, it stretches a little and the shoulders can slip. If I could buy this, I would.

Went to a family wedding.
I rented the 12R and it was too large all over. My backup size, 10R, fit perfectly everywhere except the chest. My boobs were a bit too exposed for a wedding. Loved the dress otherwise, just not for the event I was attending.
