Obtrusive pockets
Overall the dress fit well, except the pockets stick out and alter the shape. I usually love pockets in dresses, so I was disappointed to see how these pockets gave me an awkward shape. Too bad bc the rest of the dress is quite nice.

Beautiful color and detail
Love the color and lace! Although I do need to warn the high waist was tight on me and I just barely filled the top. No deep breaths! The dress requires a narrow rib cage and enough bust...I recommend sizing very carefully.

Felt like a linebacker
I thought I understood the sleeves/shoulder of the sweater...until I tried it on...the photo doesn't show quite how gigantic the sleeves are. Made me look about 30 lbs heavier. Somehow the model wearing it pulled it off, but I did not, lol! The texture is soft and warm so whoever can pull it off will be comfortable.

Beautiful dress. Wore it for my engagement photos
Love this dress! Flattering cut, the A line of the skirt gave the dress a good shape, without being overly dramatic. The top is pretty thick, great for extra coverage.

Much more flattering than the pictures
I was surprised at how much I liked this dress. It looks much better in person. Even gave me curves! And comfy, easy to wear.

Unique and flatteringly design
Great dress! Flattering and forgiving. Note there is a side zipper, I completely missed it the first time I put it on. Nice amount of sparkle without being overwhelming. My fiancé liked it too.

Nice, a tad matronly
It's a nice dress that is well made. The material can get a little wrinkly but not a serious issue. I did feel a bit matronly though. Regardless of design preferences, it's a quality dress

Flattering fit and design
Great dress! The fit worked for me, albeit it was tight in the shoulders (my shoulders are a bit broad). I could see how this might not fit a larger busted woman. The material is thicker than I thought, which was good since it wasn't see through. It does wrinkle so be prepared to iron before wearing.

Cute design
Got a few compliments on this dress. Fairly comfortable to wear. A little loose at the top near the neck tie (above the bust). The material doesn't give so size accurately. Overall nice dress

Great color!
I enjoyed wearing this dress. Pretty comfortable to wear. The color is the best part to me. The loose ends at the bottom are fun, someone said it reminded them of a car wash, lol! Luckily the loose ends aren't cut too high so I cld sit and not show too much leg at work.

Memorable design, received lots of compliments!
Love this dress! Comfy to wear. The skirt is beautiful! Note the material is thin, and it wrinkles easily. But that wldn't stop me from wearing it again ;-)

Great color. Awful material
It fit fine. The color is fun. But the material is really stiff. So much so that when walking, my moving arms created noise when the fabric moved past each other. That was a bit embarrassing. Too bad, everything else about the jacket is nice

Ok top, not too memorable
It fit ok the in arms and shoulders. It's very droopy in the front, not sure if my A cups weren't big enough for the shirt or if it's suppose to be like that. I had to wear a camisole underneath. Fabric was soft. Overall comfortable, just not flattering or memorable for me.
Leonard Top

Vibrant color! Neck wrap was uncomfortable
I like the color and flowy-ness of the short. Ironically the shirt is very loose but the neck tie can be really tight. I think because the material is heavy which leads to the tie weighing down. I was constantly lifting the tie so my neck wasn't constricted. I never thought the tie wld have been so uncomfortable. It sure if I'd wear it again bc of the tie

Fun print and comfortable
Overall enjoyed wearing this dress! Had to wear a tank top underneath because it was a little low cut for work. Had a bit of static cling so helpful to have dryer sheets around. Otherwise great dress and easy to wear!

Interesting design, made for a unique look
Overall I like this top. A few things to note: I sized down based on the reviews and am glad I did. It wrinkles easily. I thought the tie in the back wasn't too graceful since the fabric is a little stiff. That being said, I enjoyed wearing the top and liked it's unique look

Flattering dress!
Really liked this dress, it was flattering to my shape. One thing, the neck hole was small for me so the fabric wld press on my neck when sitting and leaning forward. For that reason, I'd wear it for an event rather than work again.

Way too big
I was swimming in this top, it was not flattering at all. I need a larger cup size to wear this tip. The fabric is very itchy too, def suggest wearing something underneath. I didn't wear it out and I was surprised at how itchy it was in the short time I wore it.

Great print and embroidery
Fun pants that were well made. No stretch though. Like of like wearing an embroidered furniture fabric, that kind of consistency. So size correctly.

Amazingly flattering dress!
Perfect dress for a formal affair. Lovely design, very elegant. And very FORGIVING! Did not feel self conscious in this dress. Very stretchy. Could adjust the length as needed with all ruching. Only difficult thing is getting in the dress. If you have to put it over your head, it's ideal to have someone else there to help out. But once it's on, it's fabulous!

Pretty design. Top is not made for A cups
The top is not made for A cups. But the design is great so I still wore the top with a tank top underneath and a safety pin. The rest of the shift fit, just not the cup.

Unique and creative look!
Fun shirt! Got many compliments. My boyfriend said I looked like an artist. Comfortable fit. The material is thicker and softer than a usual dress shirt. Flowed nicely when walking.

Amazing design
I received compliments from women walking past me, that's how pretty this dress is! A tad short so be prepared for that. And the slip underneath can shift. Overall great dress and fairly comfortable!

The material is more plastic than fabric
I didn't wear this dress after receiving it. It was a bit too big for me and I worried that it wouldn't hang on my hips after walking around. The biggest reason though is the material. It felt more like plastic and rubber, which I wasn't expecting. Felt like I wld look like I was going to the club than work. Even if going to the club, the material doesn't seem like it would breathe well.

Flattering and comfortable!
Love this dress! The design is beautiful and comfortable to wear. The material is more wool than lace, so better for fall/winter wear.

Unique design, received many compliments
Nice loose top. The design in the front was well received. For those of us with long arms, the sleeves will run short. Which was a good thing in this case since I had to be aware to not get the bows in food, the sink, etc. Overall nice shirt

Not flattering for A cup women
The top was too big. I still wore it since everything was flowy, and wore it with a tank top underneath. The material is thin. I like the overall design so it's a nice dress, just not made for my body type.

Beautiful pattern!
Really lovely pattern! For like a typical wrap dress. Little loose on top for an A cup, but not too distracting. Wore a tank top underneath to make it appropriate for work. Overall the print really makes the dress unique

Unique color that got everyone's attention
Really unique color. Had several people comment that it was a good color. Comfortable. The top works for an A cup. Fabric does wrinkle easily, luckily the ruffles in the front make the wrinkles less obvious. Overall fun dress!

Great color! Love the profile of the dress
I love the design and color. The flared skirt was fun and made more of a statement. However, I wasn't prepared for the material...it's like rain coat fabric. More plastic than fabric feel. I cld make do with the material, however it wrinkles really easily. I'm not sure how I'd feel in this dress on a hot day, doesn't seem very breathable. Overall, I'd wear it again but I'd be choosy what event this dress wld feel appropriate for.

Beautiful cut
Love the design of the dress! The opening in the front makes it a little more fun. I normally wear a 2 or 4, and this dress fit well at a 6. One thing to note, the pictures from the side aren't flattering for A cup ladies

Not a blazer
The colors are nice. But not a blazer, the material is thin, it's more like a shirt. Wrinkled easily. Kind of felt like I was in pajamas.

Fabulous dress! Got tons of compliments on this dress, including strangers walking by. Comfortable dress. The under layer is quite sheer so be prepared to wear another layer or nude spanx underneath.
