Versatile but needs fashion tape
Love this top! I wore it to work and going out but both ways it needed a little fashion tape to conceal my bra and major cleavage in front.

Not flattering
The lack of collar and awkward length of the sleeves does not do you any favors. Skip unless you can't live without the pattern.

Love a big sleeve and a cinched waist
Effortless and super adjustable in the waist without throwing the rest of the dress off.

Botanic Garden Approved
This linen dress is very heavy in weight but the weight does not make you sweat, even on an over 90° summer day at a botanic garden in Florida. Showed a lil boob and clinched at the waist with a long belt. Very cute!

Very easy to wear. Might run a little large in the elastic waist but you can tighten it a little bit with the tie. Good quality.

Not Flattering On Curves
I have a small waist and big ol' hips and this did not flatter whatsoever. Best for straight bodies to add curves!

Waist and hips run small!
I ordered a 40 in these and I could not zip them up! Ordered again in a 42 and they were still pretty tight. Great quality and length though!

Not Flattering
The bodice of this dress has intricate bunching that is still loose and does absolutely nothing for my curves. Boyfriend was not a fan and neither was I. Looked like a smock.

This skirt was fun for a resort casual benefit. Not the most breathable and tight waist band. It good otherwise.

Loved these fab pants!!!
I am a curvy hourglass figure and tall and the smalls fit me perfectly. These definitely run large. I love the way they made my butt look (so did the bf). I kept these for two months and wore these everywhere except the gym and the office. They definitely accentuated my love handles so I couldn't wear a crop top.

It's giving classy 70s
Absolutely fell in love with this dress and wore it several times. Wore it with a burgundy beret and tall black leather boots and a black belt. Also wore it to work with a brown belt and nude heels. Super versatile and luxuriously silky. Say yes.

Something just isn't right on this dress but I can't put my finger on it. Maybe too much fabric in the chest?

Heinous Tent
This crinkly, crunchy tent was not only unflattering but very difficult to flatten out. I had to steam the bottom hem line to make it resemble a dress and not a tutu. The dress has 5x as much fabric needed for a cute babydoll look.

Lovely dress to wear with or without the belt. Probably works well on most body types. I wouldn't recommend it for work if you are on the taller side or live in a warm place and can't pull off tights or leggings underneath.

Too Short and Tight for Work
Beautiful quality dress but I just got too small a size. Even if I had gone up a size, I would need to wear it with tights at work because it showed a lot of leg. Tricky to get the bow to tie without a hole of skin peering through.

Thinnest dress ever!
Beautiful dress but that one reviewer is spot on, it's like wearing a scarf! It was too short on me so I popped a black slip underneath which looked a little awkward but worked. Lots of compliments but I recommend wearing a slip.

Buttons beware
I loved this dress but the buttons kept coming undone even though the dress was not tight on me. I think the button holes have just become loose form wear. Lovely versatile dress, I just wish I didn't have to keep looking down.

I wore this amazing dress for a colorful weekend in Key West. I definitely suggest sizing two sizes up if you own hips and thighs!!!!! I am normally a 4/6 and the 8 fit perfectly with the belt sash.

This dress was a solid choice for work in the fall and winter and looks great with black tights as well. Hugged my hourglass figure but didn't make me look chunky. This style was just a little outdated for me but it's a great rental.

I loved this dress! It's super cute and the shape was easy to wear and look great in. I added a pink belt for another pop of color and a bit more shape but still looks great without it. Lots of compliments . This was super fun to wear to work

Awkward! Don't do it!
Could not wear this dress! It is very strangely gathered in the mid section that you would think looks good on hourglass shapes but it does not! It's buttons poke out awkwardly on the bottom half. Don't rent this!!!

This dress was awkward with the bunched in middle and made me feel chunky rather than curvy. Probably not for shorter ladies but it was something different!

Frilly and relaxed
This Saloni dress was huge compared to my last one which I could barely zip. It's a cute frilly dress but the arm holes are quite large and droop so you have to have a cute bra underneath. Looks best belted.

Classy Work Dress
Beautiful, classy work dress. I belted it with a pink belt and it looked amazing. The only reason it has four stars is because the top of the dress was very uncomfortable and rubbed against my shoulders and collarbones all day.

Could Barely Breathe
This dress runs one to two sizes too small. I am normally a 2 or 4 and have a small ribcage. This was super tight on my ribs and I felt like a sausage in casing but it fit! I got lots of compliments but next time I would order a 6 or 8.
