Cute!
I liked this a lot. I think I could go with one size up so I rented next to see. The hem does roll but I just turned it under to try to reverse it and it stayed straight after that for the most part

Runs a tad small
This was really pretty but it ran a bit small. I still wore it but the sleeves were riding up all day.

Very pretty
I rented the 6 and the 8. Went with the 8 because the 6 was snug but the 8 was roomier than I wanted. I also had to go with the long even though I am not tall! But for a formal ball I needed the gown to go to the floor with heels. The regular hit the floor with no shoes on.

Too stiff
This looked really cute from the pictures and arrived NWT. The fit was just really bad though. The bodice is really stiff and would not lay down flat at all and was just overall uncomfortable. The collar is detachable which is interesting, but it just kind of added to the bulkiness. Went back to RTR still NWT.

Didn't wear
The fit was fine on this, like other reviewers mention it will highlight everything about midsection. I don't mind that, it's just a matter of personal preference, but I didn't wear because the buttons, while functional, puckered in a weird way when buttoning a few. It looked best completely unbuttoned which I didn't really want to do. Again, personal preference, so if you don't mind showing cleavage it was really cute and good quality!

Green Crochet Dress
Love, Whit by Whitney Port
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4

Wish the straps were longer
This was so previous and arrived NWT, so before I even put it on I thought I wanted to buy it. I didn't though, because with it on the ruffle that goes around the top is super annoying under the armpit. The straps have no give at all, so you can't pull it down where the ruffle isn't straight up in your armpit. While wearing it ended up folding over which then made the front not really lay right. I usually have a problem with straps being too long, not too short. The fabric was beautiful though, and everything else about the dress was wonderful.

Nearly perfect
Really wanted to buy but decided against it because the top does gape open a little. But I would definitely rent again!

Loved this, size up!
I sized up to an 8, I'm usually a 4 or 6. (More 4 in the top and 6 in the bottom but usually go with 4 for dresses.) It was pretty short. I'm 5'3". Couldn't bend over without showing my behind. Still loved it and would keep it for various occasions (where I don't have to bend over and pick up kids) if it was cheaper.

Perfect casual wear
Cute for the weekend or work, I wore with trouser jeans on a Friday. It does run small, I went a size up. The material on top is not quite what I was expecting but I wore 2 or 3 times.

Cute and girly
So cute with very cute details. The ties in the back were adorable but obviously can't wear a bra for this reason.

Gorgeous
Photos don't do this dress justice, the fabric and embroidery is beautiful. Perfect for a spring outdoor wedding. At first I got the 4 (my usual size) and it was a bit snug in the hips. I ordered the 6 instead and ended up wearing it but the 6 was big for me in the bust, so I probably should have stuck with the 4. It just ran a little bit small.

Good staple dress
I wore this to work, to church, and on a date night with my husband. I received several compliments! The bust was a tad bit small, and I would not consider myself to be busty. Everything else was TTS.

Tight in the chest
I'm pregnant and this had plenty of room for my 22 week bump. However, it did not fit my bust whatsoever. I'm at 32D currently. I've grown and am not used to having to worry about sizing on my chest! Not for bustier girls for sure, I'm still not that large

Kinda uncomfortable
Forgot to take a photo. Sized up to wear at 22/23 weeks pregnant. It fit fine but wasn't flattering. I don't blame the dress for that; it's not meant to be maternity. My biggest issue was the comfort. The fabric was kinda scratchy and not really what I was expecting. The elastic on the arms kept riding up. Pockets kept bulging out. Pretty color.

LOVED IT
Wore this at around 22 weeks pregnant. Planned to buy it from the second I put it on but waited until I wore it for a full day to pull the trigger. By the time I did, the price had gone up! I was devastated. Some reviews mentioned the straps being adjustable. Mine were sewn together and then you tied it but couldn't adjust the length of them. Was fine for me. Even at 5'3" I didn't feel it was too long, granted I've been more fond of maxis during my pregnancy. Will rent this again for sure.

Cute and comfy
I really liked this dress. I was glad that I sized up based on other reviews. I'm 20 weeks pregnant in this photo and I think that the smaller size still would have been able to accommodate my bump but my still normal sized hips were thankful for the extra room. I loved the length but I'm only 5'3" and it was still a little shorter than a lot of my dresses. The texture is amazing and the colors are perfect for fall.

Huge and see through
I wouldn't recommend this dress for smaller people. I couldn't size down from an XS and this dress just swallowed me whole. Not to mention it's a very thin fabric and see through. Not even close to being worth the price tag in my opinion. Was looking forward to this one but unfortunately it disappointed. I won't be able to wear it.

Fave this month
Loved this one. Being 18 weeks pregnant, I sized up, but I could have gone with my pre pregnancy size. Bump friendly into second trimester. It was a little long on me but it didn't keep from wearing it.

Comfy and easy
This dress was a little confusing with the tag being opposite the way the model is wearing it. I wore it with the tag in the back. Not the most flattering but I wore this at 18 weeks pregnant so I didn't mind too much. But I probably wouldn't wear this if I wasn't needing the extra room. I sized up but could have worn my usual size.

Fun flouncy top
I thought this top was super cute and flattering. I would have worn it more than once if I had more places to go (I am working from home). I could have worn it to work, though. Perfect for dinner as well. My only complaint was that it was a bit itchy. Wore my usual size at 18 weeks pregnant with a tiny bump.
