Shows better in person

Modest but actually cuter in person. The embroidery detail is nicer than you think. Could wear with a strapless bra and didn't need shapewear. You're gonna need someone to zip/unzip you. The overlay restricts your arms a bit to get the full length of the zipper.

Lovely fabric, odd fit

Nice weight to fabric and interesting print. But fit was odd. It was boxy and short-waisted, but shoulder seams were set very far. So some elements seemed oversized while others didn't. Just didn't work for me.

Long and a bit oversized

Of course was seeking a relaxed fit for a linen pant, but this pair is a bit more oversized beyond that. Weird that there were cargo pockets but neither front nor back pockets. Also quite long for me at 5'5"

Beware the slit

It's not obvious in the photos....or even when you first put it on...but the leg slit is quite high and limited it to one casual wear. Waist band small.

Very cute print and cut. Waist was a wee bit small for me, but wearable. Very distinctive and recognizable print; otherwise I would have probably worn it multiple times.

Sizing or cut is weird?

Cute print and fabric that resists wrinkling. Really wanted to like it but the top was very low cut. I'm not even blessed in that department, so I was trying to imagine who could wear this.....Perhaps someone tall or just very long-waisted.

So cute!

I wore it 3 times in two weeks. Easy to dress up or down. Sometimes I feel like a shirtdress wears me, rather than the other way around, and this one was great. Neckline was perfect and waist detail and pockets gave it extra flair. I'll probably regret not buying it.

Wanted to like it but was boxy and arms were too long. The fabric and design didn't really allow for pushing up the sleeves and overall it just didn't work for me.
