Jacket was perfect weight for travel to slightly warmer climate for Thanksgiving.
Generally a 2X jacket would fit me but I couldn't even zip this one because it was too tight across my hips. Also the color and design aren't remarkable in any way. I must say though...I was delighted by the fact that it was lightweight (perfect for airport / airplane travel), and it was ideal for the climate where I spent Thanksgiving. It rained all day the day after Thanksgiving so the hood came in handy.

Should have worn it with a pop of color underneath, or with blue jeans.
I really liked this piece but didn't get many compliments on it. I think that's because I needed a pop of color underneath, but I was traveling and only brought a black t-shirt. Also, I paired it with grayish black jeans so the overall look was muted. I would definitely rent again, and style differently.

Rented this for Thanksgiving weekend with the family. Got tons of compliments!
Comfortable fit. Great fabric so flattering enough to hide imperfect midsections. Nicely designed for anyone who likes wearing black but wants to stand out a bit. This would be a great piece to own.

Wore this at a black tie event with a poncho style, black/shimmery scarf.
Story of my life...dress fit at the bottom, but was too big at the top. So the choker part of the dress draped down like a scoop-neck vs. a choker. Also, the front cut-out was so low that my bra could easily be seen. Fortunately, I had the perfect cover-up scarf for the top-half of the dress so no one was the wiser.

Ordered this dress for a black tie event. Ended up wearing the second option.
Fit well in the hips but the top was way too big. May just be my body type. I always struggle with dresses, especially if they don't have a little stretch to them.

Wore this dress to an out-of-town work conference.
A little big at the top but that's because my hips are proportionately larger than my upper body. Also, I'm more of a misses size 18 or 20, not a plus size so that's likely why the top was bigger than I wanted it to be.

Attended an out-of-town conference for work. Received tons of compliments no this dress!
I'm booby and hippy...so most dresses don't fit me very well. This one did. Likely because of the stretchy fabric. Very comfortable. Again, a really nice fit. And tons of compliments.

I wore this dress for a special ceremony where everyone had to wear white.
I'm 5'6" and 200+ lbs. The 14W was a little snug so I'm glad I got the 16W as a back-up. The dress looked really nice, but the only problem was that part of the hem was undone. I had to use a few straight pins to put the hem back in place. Fortunately no one noticed, and I didn't stick myself either :).
