Loose and unflattering
This dress did NOT work on my body -- a bummer because a lot of the other reviews were so great. I found it to be pretty shapeless, the waist was so high I couldn't wear a belt with it, and the v neck was really wide. The pattern is really pretty. Not sure if the fit issues were because it runs large (though I'm typically a 4 in J Crew) or if it was just shapeless.

Gorgeous dress, great material
I loved this dress! Wore it to my children's evening Christmas event + nice dinner after with black pumps and a black leather jacket. I got a ton of compliments -- the material is gorgeous and flows really nicely, felt really elegant and simple but not boring. Would definitely rent this again.

Shirt dress with a twist
Love this! I found the top part TTS but it might be tight if you have a big bust. Classic look but the hemline and tie front give it more style. Great for work events. Strongly considering buying...

Great, soft sweater
Love this sweater! Softer than I expected. I'm long waisted and it hit perfectly at the top of my hips. Keeps its shape after multiple wears. Fit is loose but not boxy.

Super for weekends and mom-ing
I love brightly colored sweaters right now, and this one delivered. The material is thick, warm cotton - not super soft, but I didn't expect it to be. The color is colorful without being BRIGHT. It maintained its shape over multiple wears. The fit is loose, as expected -- it looked very similar to what you see on the model. I wore this with light colored skinny jeans and gray skinny jeans -- looked great with both. It was perfect for the weekend -- both for casual hang outs and lots of kids sporting events.

Cute dress, runs large
This dress had significant pros and cons. I bumped it to 4 stars because I would wear it again (in a smaller size), but there are some things to be aware of... Pros: the print is really cute. There is a lot of interesting detail in the cut -- the sleeves, the hemline -- and combined with the print make this dress feel really stylish. I enjoyed wearing it and felt confident in it. I wore it to a work dinner, and felt like it was exactly the right mix of professional and stylish with zero frump factor. Cons: I felt this dress ran large -- I typically wear a 4, and I could have sized down in this (which made it a little less flattering than I might have liked). I found the cut very low -- you could see my bra (even when buttoned) -- I fixed this with fashion tape, but it took a while to get right. The button at the neckline is REALLY HARD to fasten/unfasten. I was worried I would break it, and it made getting the dress off and on more challenging.

Comfortable, tight pants
I love these pants. They are tight so be ready to put them on like the favorite skinny jeans you just washed and put in the dryer. As someone with a decent amount of cellulite I'm thrilled that 1) you cant see any of it because these are made of some miracle fabric and 2) all despite the fact they aren't lined and 3) my butt looks pretty good if I do say so myself. I also have the shortest legs known to man and these hit at a great point on my leg where they are clearly intended to be cropped (most cropped looks ankle length on me). My only complaint is the seams seem delicate/stretched so I've had a small fear these might rip at a seam. They didn't. Love, love, love

I typically wear a 27/28 in jeans or size 4 pant... ordered these in a 4 and they were too big.
