Too big on top
Such a gorgeous dress with lovely details. The bottom fit my tummy and hips well but I needed to have a C cup minimum to even begin to fill out the top.

Cute but smelled awful
Fun, summer dress with great colors. Not too much fabric. Roomy without being overpowering. Wish I could have worn. It arrived with a terrible BO smell. So disappointed

Loved this
Wish I could have bought this. It was so elegant. Everyone loved it and I felt positively regal. The fit is nice for those with a little tummy. It masks it perfectly.

Feminine with some flutter
Dress fits nicely on hips. A little large in the bust so can work with larger chests. Also looked fine with my smaller chest as it blouses nicely.

Easy to wear
Effortless elegance. Good fit for hippy girls with smaller chests. Arm holes a touch small. Nice weight to fabric. Felt like quality.

I wanted to love this dress but it didn't love my flat chested, curvy-bottomed frame

Nice form-fitting top with lovely tassel details on sleeves. It's a fun top. Hugs the tummy a bit bit is good overall.

Pockets didn't work this time
Normally, I love a dress with pockets. The way the cut hit my curvy hips made the pickets too prominent. Not a good look and sadly I didn't wear the dress. The color was so beautiful.

Boho chic
This was a fun break from my typical style. I normally don't like the shapelessness of boho chic and don't pick the style to wear. This top had definite structure with bohemian colors and details. It was fun to stretch my style comfort zone. I'm shorter with a tummy and this top didn't overwhelm my frame,but it did hide my middle..a magical combination!

Elevated my all black outfit
I took on a trip to dress up my all black outfit. This did the trick and I felt effortlessly elegant moving from the board room in the day to the dining room that evening

Pretty but not on me
Beautiful cut and fabric. Unfortunately it didn't work on my curvy tummy and hips.

Great little black top
The detailing on the sleeves and neck make this simple black top anything but. It doesn't scream "look at me." Instead it effectively whispers that it is a high quality piece and should be noticed by those with a discerning eye.

Fine dress
Good everyday dress. The middle didn't fall straight down as on the model. Instead it stopped in my tummy and blouses over which looked equally fine. I couldn't believe it. It offers a little panache with the sleeve details but is long and conservative enough to wear in most situations. I liked it a lot. Not loved. But like was enough. It's a solid choice if you're not shopping for an event- specific outfit.

Love this top
You can pair this top with so many different options and you should. Plus, with the cut, you can enjoy margaritas and nachos and still look fantastic. The cut is forgiving without being a shapeless sack.

Details. Details.
Such a nice thick fabric on this dress and such gorgeous sleeves. Don't let the pale gray fool you into thinking this dress is boring. It's a hit that you don't want to miss!

I wish it had worked
Made for tall and narrow people. Curvy, shorter girls with sass in their steps will be tempted by this one.... but you must resist. It was a heartbreaker when I couldn't get the zipper to go up all the way.

I should have bought this
Rave reviews all day long. The colors are gorgeous and pale. You can dress up or down. I think the only reason I didn't buy it is because I wore it to a big event and it got so many positive reactions that I know people would remember it.

Pretty without being too cute! Good for girls with a little bit of tummy and hips. So slimming and fresh. A definite hit.

Great top for work. Wear with black or white bottom and pair with fun green or yellow shoes to add some punch if you want it. Easy and fun

Nice dress
The color and cut were good for curvy pear-shaped girls. The fabric was nice quality. I thought the high neck was too ecclesiastical and didn't match the fun and flirty feel of the rest of the dress. Overall it worked but didn't blow me away. It's a good, solid rental for unlimited members but I don't need to rent again.

You will be noticed
Everything about this dress was perfect. Flowing and fun. The color blew away a sea of little black dresses. The length flirted with being short but wasn't too short and the fluttering fabric on the back made me feel like a butterfly instead of Batman like so many dresses with a cape-like back can do.

Beautiful cut and fabric
Heavy enough to be forgiving but light enough for warm weather. I wore this dress twice and adored it.

Surprised by the length
The top fit and looked great but it was terribly short on the bottom. May need to wait and wear with leggings in colder months.

Good for younger wearers
It is a great day dress for younger wearers. Adorable but fabric is light and it's short.

Dressed up or down, this dress is forgiving in the middle and can go from desk to drinks with ease.

Lovely....just not on me
It wasn't made for this pair-shaped body. I wish it had fit but my tummy felt too prominent in it.

I wore this top to a work event filled with ridiculously stylish people. Paired with a simple white pant, this top made an effortlessly chic impression!

Gorgeous dress if you have a small neck and no behind
I have a behind and didnt need any more. I should have trusted the reviews. There are zippers on wither side of the neck so pay attention to that because it zips up tightly. But it youre the right body type, its great quality and so much fun.

Great style that is so easy to wear
This skirt can go desk to dusk. It is on the longer side but the colors and flowing pleats make it flirty and fun. Dress up or down and be sure to spin because this skirt was made for it!

Unique cut made it a standout
My office is full of designers and they could not stop raving. I paired it with a black leather wrap belt, black tights and high black boots. Pop up that collar and wham - an outfit that cannot be stopped.

Fabulous dress that can go day to night
I wore it to work and then out to a play in the evening. The lace on the thigh goes up pretty high, so I wore nude spanx that went down to mid thigh. You couldn't tell I had spanx on, but I at least felt a little more covered up just in case.
