oh la, la. Simple, elegant and sexy
This dress made me feel like a million bucks. I wore it to a small family charity event (that's my best friends son in the photo with me). At first, I thought it was just too big. I wished I had ordered the 8P. On top of that there was no way for me to wear a bra under this dress. I don't think I've gone braless out of the house in 20 years. But I didn't have an alternative. I decided that I felt secure in this dress since my chest wasn't revealed and the structure of the dress framed it well. In the end, it was a huge hit and a very comfortable dress. I'm sure I could have got into the 8 but was better off with the body skimming 10. Loved the red.

solid and striking
I'm a short and very curvy gal but petite overall, so this dresses structure was a bit too much for all I have going on. I probably would have been better off sizing down since it ran very large in the shoulders for me. I have a petite frame just voluptuously built. So, just don't this the design suited me from a fit standpoint. That being said, it looked good, and I got good feedback on the dress. If you are slimmer I think it would be a better match.

nice feminine fall dress
I wore it twice to work. It was light and well made and easy to wear. Right in between casual and dressy. A good choice for work/plus after.

benefit dinner, looking good
This unusual dress fit like a glove and made the best of my curves. It's sexy but understated. There is a nude lining with a sheer lace top and the fact that it covers everything makes it even sexier in my opinion. I didn't want to let it go and wore it twice before sending it back. One of those dresses I would have kept if I could afford to. I can think of a dozen events to wear it to.

gorgeous print, easy to wear, lots of compliments
the print was terrific and I got non-stop compliments. Really did a nice job with my oh so curvy figure. still modest but flirty. The fabric is light and has a bit of give. I loved this dress and may hold onto it for a while. Probably could have easily fit into the 8. Might give that a try next time.

great color and fit for summer
Great pop of color. Easy to wear. I got it for work. 10 ran a little big, but it was fine. I sorta liked having it shift around me.

Beautiful dress. Very small on top
It was very tight through the bust. I had to squeeze into the medium. Heavier fabric. I thought it looked great on, but wasn't so comfortable for my large chested self. I'd order a large next time. Probably not an issue for the "B" cup crowd.

Everyone loved this dress on me
Great fit for a curvy figure. I felt both comfortable and confident. (I don't like it when you have to fiddle with your outfit all day.). You put this on and it's fine. Nice heavier fabric keeps it shape and is flattering front and back. Loved it.

Super cute and colorful. Easy to wear
The top is pleated across the front and very well constructed. It was lovely and easy to wear. a perfect summer top. I wore it to work and then Friday happy hour. Compliments from a dozen people. Very comfortable with jeans. Will wear again.

cute, and summery but probably better for the A and B cup crew
It's a cute breezy summer top but it felt too much for my 38C's. It fit, but it felt like advertising. I ended up not wearing it.

essential piece
I ended up keeping this piece because it's so versatile. Its very heavy, a good solid piece you can wear for work to pull a work outfit together or out with casual clothes to dress things up. It felt like a good investment. Clasp is sturdy. I get compliments every time I wear it. Feel good about holding on it it.

light, airy dress and so sophisticated
I wore this to the first anniversary of a local start up. The attire was formal-ish. This was an office that has a pool table and other games, where I think the people come to work in their gym clothes, so they wanted to bring it up an notch for the event. This dress was gorgeous, very current and felt amazing on. It's a flowy floral (but not so floral that you feel like you are wearing granny's sofa). I loved the layers of shear around the hips that complemented my curvy silhouette. A particularly lovely aspect of this dress were sleeves that continue over your hands. Just so feminine and summery in a way I really appreciated. It's worn over a sheer sheath (provided) so that you can feel confident outdoors since the whole outfit is sheer. I will say that eating dinner with the sleeves is not an easy task. But I somehow navigated it. I got a lot of compliments from total strangers on this. Really loved it.

Work day and into evening event
I wore this for a busy day with my regular office responsibilities, a live streaming event, and then into a neighborhood event that was pretty information and included a dance party. This dress is made of a heavier knit that really held its shape throughout the day and was flattering for my curvy figure. The compliments I got were about the color of this dress which is a "power red" and the material is also nicely shiny. Really easy to wear. I enjoyed this dress and felt like a knock out in it.

I didn't end up wearing this dress.
It's a great dress. I decide to wear an alternate that was a little more subdued for this early evening wedding. The dress is sexy and slinky and fits where you want it too. I think it's much more for a hot cocktail party or night on the town. Looks great on. Very snug but still comfortable.

Comfortable, striking and easy to wear.
Fit my hourglass really beautifully. A very easy dress to wear. I could have worn the 8, and I'm usually a solid 10 so it probably runs big.
