"Oversized" is a misnomer
I previously rented a different pair of Madewell overalls from RTR, which were cute but a touch snug in the hip. I decided to try these out in the same size since they were described as "oversized," but they somehow were even tighter across the hip!

My most-complimented rental ever
This is probably my favorite RTR item ever. I've never gotten so many compliments on a rental--from co-workers, fellow grad students, and strangers in line at the coffee shop. The color is vibrant and eye-catching and the material had such a nice fit. They look best with a more seamless undergarment (something like Spanx works well). But the length and fit was great on me; I wore with loafers and a low heel alternatively. Love these pants!!

Size up 2x or more
Like other reviewers said, this runs way small. I sized up to a M but should have gone to a L or even bigger. I'm not particularly large in the bust or arms, but it's skintight in both areas.

Cute, drapey cropped pant!
Love these pants and got multiple compliments on them. I have a small waist with wider hips and this fit was pretty much ideal for that. I am tall, so the length was definitely cropped, but it didn't look weird.

Cute but short in the arms
This blazer is super cute but as a tall person, I found it a little snug across the shoulders and too short in the arms. Definitely size up if you're looking for a roomier fit.

Too snug
I could make this work but it wasn't a comfortable fit. Too small across the bust and torso. I don't have a big bust, and the buttons were still trying to gap and pull on me without frequent adjustment.

Super comfy; don't size up!
This sweater is so cute, plus it's super soft and not scratchy at all. Unfortunately I sized up to a M after seeing reviewers with similar body types to mine wearing that size, but I really wish I had stuck with my usual S. I'm tall and it is still way too big, and not in a cute oversized way (sleeves too long, torso too long, saggy armpits, baggy shoulders). I'd recommend sticking with your usual size when ordering; if you're petite, you might size down.

Poor fit for my body type
I have a small waist and wide hips and these jeans were horrible. I ordered my normal size (27) and could barely get them over my thighs, and the waist didn't reach the height shown in photos. No chance of zipping them up. The fabric is more rigid, which I'm sure didn't help. Perhaps a size or two up would have worked better, although I'd expect the waist would gap a lot. RTR needs to add additional sizing information for these jeans.

Baggy around waist
These shorts are soft, stretchy, and felt great around my thighs (which often feel squeezed to death in shorts). Unfortunately, they felt baggy around the waist, and the gapping became more pronounced as the day wore on. I wanted to wear them with a crop top or shirt tucked in, but felt I couldn't because the waist gap was so pronounced.

Cozy, oversized coat
I wore this for a long trip to NYC in January, and it worked great: perfectly warm, a soft quilted lining, and much more interesting than my usual winter coat. This coat does have a more "oversized" fit, so factor that in if you have preferences on how it wears. I typically paired it with a scarf to add extra warmth since it only has a couple buttons.

Gorgeous color and flattering fit
I didn't have any fit problems with this dress--a 4 is my typical size, and that is what I wore. I felt it was perhaps a little loose in the bust, but my backup size was a 2 and that was way too tight across the hips. The length was perfect, the fabric was comfortable and the fit/color were so flattering. I got tons of compliments! (Not sure if my details will show up, but I am 5'10, 135 lbs. and a 30D.)
