Very pretty without looking like you tried too hard!
As others have noted, this is tight through the arms and shoulders. I couldn't really raise my hands above my head. Pretty tight in the chest also (36C), but looked nice on. I did pin down the pockets as I didn't like the way they were laying. The crinoline on this dress was a wrinkled mess. I tried to steam it, but it didn't help much.

Pretty pattern, nice knit, you will get compliments!
While I would normally be a true medium, I'm very glad I got this in the large. Snug fit and pretty unforgiving in the tummy area. Definitely size up. The pattern and colors are beautiful and I received a lot of compliments. Wore it with black tights and a black cardigan and it was plenty warm and comfortable for a winter dress. I recommend!

Fitted and fun!
This is a pretty fitted sweater and maybe a bit short in the torso. Very nice, not heavy but warm material - not quite a standard sweater knit. Color is beautiful!

Super cute and stylish!
Excellent quality material - somewhat structured, but not stiff. This does run short in the torso, but I wore with a long tank top underneath and had no problems. Sleeves are voluminous, but somehow not really in the way. Considered buying and will definitely rent again!

Super cute, but sheer
Fits pretty true to size, maybe a smidge tight through the shoulder and bust. Cute design, very nicely made. Materials is very light and sheer, it is not lined at all. Seems like it would be a cute Fall/Winter dress but the material is so thin, it's not very practical. I wore it over a black camisole and leggings for some coverage.

Fits small, but beautiful
There was no size tag on this blouse so I'm not convinced it was actually a medium. Fit very small through shoulders, under armpits, and across hips. I had to leave the bottom-most button undone. It is a cute style and the material is very nice. Was cute with jeans for a casual get together.

Perfection!
Beautiful fit! Material is soft and just lovely. Liked it so much I bought it from a different retailer (better price and I had a promo code). Rent this. You will not be disappointed.

Fancy, high quality
Hard to tell in the photos, but this is a little sparkly for work. Comfortable, loose fit through body, but shoulders fit perfectly, so not convinced you should size down. Beautiful, delicate features!

Good for casual, weekend wear
Runs a bit big. Baggy through the body and the sleeves were long, but could be cuffed once and looked fine. Nice substantial knit. Mine had a faint stain on the front when it arrived and once I saw it, it was all I could see. sadly, wasn't able to wear it.
