Sexy dress
This was a resounding yes from my husband. While it looked hot, it was a fussy dress for me to wear. I have ample backside and it pulled the slit up. I had to be extra careful walking, sitting etc.

Warm sweater!
Loved wearing this during long car rides in cold weather. I wore with leggings, and was super cozy. A bit thick to wear with my coat. Only took a star off because the color is just a bit weird for my skin tone. Wish it came in other colors!

I wish they were about 1/2” higher rise. They run TTS maybe a tad big.

Unique top
I wore this a couple of times and it was comfortable and cool. I probably would not recommend if you are large chested as the buttons may gape.

Low cut and short
This was the type of shirt that looks good as long as you don't move. It was more a problem with the bust area - tried a strapless bra but the shirt kept creeping open and showed the bra. Fashion tape didn't work either. Ultimately didn't wear because I didn't want to deal with constantly adjusting it.

Overwhelmed me.
This dress needs the right body type and weather. It overwhelmed me with my small shoulders and my height. It felt like a tent but also heavy satin and would not have bode well for the hot summer days we are having.

I loved it!
I loved this dress! I wore it to a couple casual dinners during a heat spell and felt comfortable as well as chic. I wore black booty shorts underneath just for my own peace of mind as it is a bit see through in the right light. Size up if you are busty.

Heavy fabric
This is a heavier fabric than I thought. I couldn't wear it because of the heat wave we are under and I spend most of my days running my kids to activities. It would be great for a chilly office!

Not booty friendly
I figured I'd take a chance on this since none of my hearts were available. I'm like, I'm shorter than the model, it'll be longer on me. Not the case. The back hem is higher + I have a slight booty (thanks peloton!) = literally showed off my goods. I wouldn't want to size up for length as the top would've been too big (top part fit perfect). No way I could wear this and be comfortable.

Cute dress
I wore this for a dinner out on a patio. It was super cute. Fabric is thick but it lays pretty nicely and didn't wrinkle much. I felt great in it.

Super cute shorts
I love these shorts and they looked great on. They were slightly tight at the waist and the bulge under the waist was a little weird but not noticeable to others. Silky soft and perfect for hot days.

Unique dress!
I would've purchased had it not been so expensive. It has wash wear with slight white cast over the fabric. It fit me great though. I loved the little peek of the back. My husband really liked it too. I'll definitely rent again.

Hangs nicely
I get nervous with thin skirts because of my mom pooch but this disguised any flaws pretty well. I would've loved to have worn it but it just got so unexpectedly cold where I live.

Cute sweater
I sized up and that was a good decision. It is somewhat cropped but even after sizing up, the hem kept creeping up my torso. The sleeves are cute and fabric seems to be great quality. I just didn't like the effect of the hem.

Very thin fabric. Ended up not wearing because it was too cold where I live. Also I wasn't aware of the name on the back trim. Not my style.

I loved this top!
I loved this top! I wore it several times. I have a smaller size chest/narrow shoulders and it draped nicely. I think if you are big busted, you won't like the front updraft.

Unique dress, perfect for summer
This dress underwhelmed me at first. It's a casual fabric and it looked a bit tired. However, it's comfortable and others will not notice the wear of the garment. I wore Spanx because of my belly pooch but only because I wanted too. The pattern does forgive some flaws. I'm small chested and didn't need to wear a bra because of the light shelf bra inside. I just added swimsuit bra cups to hide the nips. Overall, it felt sassy and perfect for a Summer party.

Highly suggest going up 2 sizes!
I sized up one size and could get it over my hips (snug) but could not zip up the upper portion of my torso. I'm small chested and have narrow shoulders so if you are busty, this dress may not work for you.

Great dress despite the button trouble.
TTS, but size up if you want more room. I had a bit of trouble trying to get the collar button undone so I could put the dress on. It took me about 25 minutes of manipulation to finally get the loop over the button. Once on, it was great but I didn't button it back up in fear I wouldn't be able to get back out.

Cute sweater for the first real cold day of Fall!
It's TTS, and heavy, especially the sleeves. I wore on a 50 degree day and didn't need a jacket. I got a sweater with tags still on but after one wearing, there were fuzzies all over the sweater. It will require some grooming to wear twice. Totally recommend for a casual and warm sweater this Autumn!

High maintenance
I was not a fan of this top. The elastic in the neckline is all one piece so the top slips up frequently with arm movement. Color is true to photo, it's true to size and the material is nice.

LOVED IT!
I want this dress to be mine forever! I felt so comfortable in it, and never felt so beautiful. I've had children, and my concern is my midsection but this dress did a great job at concealing it. The zipper did give us a little trouble, you'll definitely need another set of hands getting into the dress. I would't recommend it for larger busts. I am 34B and it fit nicely. I don't see how much more would fit into this size at least. I also would recommend sizing up. I wore the smaller of the two, but when this fit so perfectly, I never tried on the backup.

Loved it!
I felt so comfortable in this dress! I wanted something that wasn't fussy (i.e.: no special bras or gut suckers needed) for a country club dinner. I am a nursing mom so my chest and belly are my main concerns when trying on dresses. This did a great job at minimizing my belly and keeping my chest modestly covered. My measurements put me in a size 2, but pushing it with my cup size. It was a little tight across the bust but that was fine since I wasn't flailing my arms around or anything. The 4 may have fit looser but it wasn't available for backup so I took the chance with the one and am glad I did!
