Great coat!
XL is more for size 10/12. It's a little scratchy with bare arms/skin. Loved the look and got so many compliments. Really wish I could have kept.

Loved
Great pants - a little hard to pair with tops for me personally. Yes they are long, yes they are mildly see-through. I wore nude anti-chafe shorts under, or a blazer that covered my bum. Didn't stop me. I got TONS of lady compliments at a work breakfast I wore them to.

Traffic cone chic?
If a traffic cone and an inflatable raft had a baby, this dress is it. It feels like heavy duty material that won't rip, and it's very red-orange in a bad way. Runs very small

I'm highly sensitive to touch, so this was not for me. It felt like rough wool. Did not wear.

Loved - perfect transition weather dress
Love this dress. Knit has not always been my friend. With the dark color, it is not visible when you have curves, or some underwear lines. I feel so good and confident in this. Can't wait to wear out on a date, and to the office.

Fit was as you'd expect. About 9 to 10 inch rise in the front, they did give a bit overtime as you wear them if it was true to size.

Elastic waist, cute pattern. Nothing to write home about. Would look good on petite frame as a floor length skirt, or tall girls. Awkward length on 5'6"

Not for short torsos or hips
This dress was very misleading. The chest is big, and I have very large boobs. I’m slightly wider on bottom, and short in the waist. This dress is made for longe torsos and people who have more straight shape. The zipper buckled on the side because my hips were in the way/not long enough in the torso. When I pulled it down, and the top up it worked. I couldn’t wear it as is.

Straps are effed
The dress is cute. As many others say, it’s very heavy. Being hung up, the weight has dragged the straps to an unwearable length unless you commit to temporary stitching or pinning. The horizontal lines also made me look and feel wide. :(

Love the metallic tweed. I added my own longer strap since the one it came with was not as elevated. Really lovely for a party or date night. Smaller than I expected. More of a clutch. Doesn't close!

Amazing dress. Fit is slightly big. I got my normal size and it was a little baggy. It is quite heavy, so it weighs down. I belted it and fit great.

Cute black top not for someone wearing a regular bra. The V is very deep and displays open super easy. Never got to wear this as it would have to be taped or pinned shut.

Gorgeous fit for a big chest
Got this dress in my membership to try on ahead of a wedding this summer. Hit beautifully on my hourglass figure. It has about 10 to 12 Hook and eyes on the inside along the rib cage allowing you to adjust the size like a bra. I have a large chest and narrow rib cage and waist and wider hips. The dress looked fantastic and I ordered it for the event fair warning the slit is considerable. If you’re not someone that is comfortable showing that much leg when you walk before forewarned.

Go down several sizes
Love the color and the style of this dress. I’m normally 10–12, and I got this dress in a size 2. I could’ve used the four since the arms are a little slim, but it fit fine. The waist is adjustable and has great pockets. Before warned, the embroidery goes high, so it’s a little bit see-through on the thighs and when you sit down on it, it is quite uncomfortable. You’ll want shorts underneath if you’re gonna be sitting in this dress.

Bachelorette Office Siren vibes
Wore this for one night of my bachelorette in NYC. Looked amazing in photos. It was fitted in the hips, and big on top. Overall, it runs bigger. Get the size that fits your hips as there is no zipper/clasp/closure. It’s sewn closed inside. Opening the buttons helped get it on and off. Was big on top - small chested ladies beware.

Fitted, stretchy denim - great for hourglass
Great for those with bigger busts, small waist lines. The fabric does stretch. I went with my normal size and it fit great. Zipper is heavy duty, good for the denim fabric. Belt came sewn on, so I had to cut the thread to move it around to my size.

Gorgeous green classic dress
I loved the silhouette! I have a long neck I love accentuating it. The bow is a little bit difficult to tie on your own but I made it work. I ended up pairing this with silver/gold shoes and long earrings. Looked great with my hair up or down. I found the tan a tiny bit big. I have a fairly large chest and I felt there was still a little bit of room. The next size down may have been too tight in the stomach.

Beautiful vibrant wedding guest dress
The dress is quite sunshine yellow in person. I'm 56 and it's just above the ankles on me. I have a large chest and very small rib cage and waste. The style work perfectly for hourglass. Love the pockets love the vibrancy. Cannot wait to wear this in Martha's Vineyard for a wedding in a few days.
