Really off sizing
Go up at least one size. Maybe 2. I own several 7 for Mankind jeans and these are super small in the same size I usually wear.

Bought immediately
I received this dress NWT and it is a fantastic professional but casual enough dress for the event I had. I bought it in a sale bc it was a great price and I'll wear this from spring to summer. The tie in the front will be forgiving if I go up or down a few lbs. I wear a size 12 in Ann Taylor, J crew and this size 14 was perfect for me. I couldn't have worn a size 12 in this dress.

Rented it multiple times
I love this skirt. Size XL fits perfectly for a size 12/31. I've rented it multiple times with the same shirt. I am on the fence about buying it but am really tempted every time. If it goes low enough in price, it will probably join my closet forever.

Found them small
I didn't wear. I haven't tried this brand and went for my normal trad size. For reference, I wear a 31 in Maeve/Anthro/7 for Mankind and a 32/12 in J.Crew. These 32 were tight in the wrong places. Nice high waist though and wish they fit!

Love this skirt, fantastic set
I ended up buying this. The shirt looks super cropped (and it is) but the elastic on the skirt sits high. Looks like a dress when wearing together. It was really comfortable and was a great price for an outfit I'll get a ton of wear out of. The large fit perfectly. For reference, I am a solid 12 in Ralph Lauren and J.Crew, a 36B chest. I wore this to a work conference in the Caribbean but would also wear to the office in the summer. It's low but not in a way that I felt uncomfortable with in a professional setting.

Size down unless you are a d+ cup
I swapped this for a medium and it was much better. The large was NWT and amazing fabric but the bust area was gaping. Beware getting it used bc whoever cleaned the medium I got - ugh the fabric feels like nothing special afterwards.

I detest this shirt
Feels like a good cotton low count sheet. It’s nice fabric but I hated it on my body. Huge sleeves but bc the fabric is so stiff they felt really wrong to me. Super short. Crop like on my 5’8” frame. Immediately went back into the bag to return.

I had such high hopes on this one
Reviews say TTS but an xl was so tight buttoned up and the material is stiff. I thought about wearing it open like a cardigan but just didn't feel enough for it to try. It's a skip. matching skirt in the same size was too big and the fabric was NOT as stiff making it just kind of hang low on my hips. For sizing help, I am a straight size L in most trad brands like Ann Taylor, Anthro brands, XL in most Farm Rio with some L sprinkled in.

Just okay
the shirt is really short IMO, fits boxy but has this huge billow of material in the back. I needed it for an event and I still wore it but I wasn't excited about it. I had to put a tank underneath to make sure my entire upper body didn't flash with movement. Not super low cut but just so voluminous around the waist and short, it was needed. Also had two rips along the bottom embroidery. I had clothing glue to hold it together for a night but seems like a weak spot on the garment. sizing down wouldn't have helped because it fit perfectly in the shoulders.

One of the most beautiful garments I've ever laid eyes on
Incredible detail. I went immediately to see how much it was to buy but that's not going to happen. The size 14 is JUST right, I might prefer it one size up and will try that. I did not get the matching tank (yet) because I need to wear it to a work conference. Sizing up potentially because I need the skirt to sit lower because of the crochet. It FITS but the crochet starts too high for my comfort. For sizing, I would say it runs small compared to trad brands. For reference, I am a 31 jeans in 7 for mankind, Maeve, size 12 in Gap, etc. I am getting this early and holding on to it because I imagine it will be impossible to snag when I need it next month.

Underwhelmed by colors, tight fit on arms and bust
Just didn't love this dress. Arms could have been fine but I thought it was just off color wise for me. Potentially could be a great dress for summer/fall transition but overall, it was a miss.

Great material, a bit too boxy/cropped for me
Not sure if sizing down would work. It def feels like a quality jacket and fabric is really good. But it was too large at waist and really boxy. Didn't work for me but if you're short, maybe it would hit better!

fanastic dress
I was on the fence about this dress. A little Little House/Laura Ashley in the pics. The dress IRL is really modern and flows just right. It's fitted where it needs to be and forgiving where it needs to be. Pretty low cut. I use tape to hold it in place. Loved it so much I bought it.

Lovely sweater
I sized up based on reviews. Glad I did. The xxl fits like a standard xl and is fitted. It looks really good with a variety of bottoms. Vary warm but sizing up is going still get you fitted. Not a casual oversized or loose fit to be found.

Great pants, not a true 14
I don’t know this brand yet but this is def more like a size 12. Waist measurements indicate it would fit a standard 14 in most labels (33) but lol no. 10lbs for me to go before I’d even try these on again. Side up one size.

Gorgeous, so low cut
I read the reviews and thought it just apply to larger chests. I’m a b cup and this shirt is way too much to even wear on a date night (unless you like huge cleavage, you do you). Will try with a cami but I worry it will ruin the whole look. Very fitted, flattering and looks nice barring the HUGE cleavage.

Beautiful shirt, size down
This shirt runs at least a size too big. I think it can still work but I would have preferred one size smaller. The shoulder area is sheer so you will see your bra straps. Needs to be worn with clear straps. It def needs a slim bottom to balance the loose fit.
