A little funky fit in the legs
Fit really well in waist and hips (note I’m more 27-28 so they may be a bit tight - however, I have curvy hips). They were funny looking in the legs though. Kind of puckered at the top of the thigh and were just a little too odd btwn wannabe wide leg but fit like straight leg. Length was great for 5’3” though (more full length).

The BEST coat
Absolutely adored this coat, wore a ton of times with different outfits (casual to dressy). Received so many compliments. Only returning to get the smaller size!

Itchy!!
I’m more sensitive to fabric but this was way too itchy for me, I couldn’t stand wearing it. Couldn’t tell how it fit but seemed like it would fit fine.

Cute wide leg jeans
These are some of the only wide leg jeans I have found that look good on my body type! They are flattering and well cut. Only minor call outs is that they were a little on the snug size (29 normally fits a tiny bit loose) and are really long for my 5’3” height.

The cutest dress!
This dress is really fun and fits like a glove. I had so many compliments (and overheard strangers commenting on how cute it was). Wore with knee-high boots (fall) but I think you can really style for different temperatures and events. Loved so much I bought!

Cute, soft, warm
This sweater is very soft, not super thick, but nice and toasty. It was a great addition for a chilly fall day. Good for work and a casual outing.

Fun, comfortable, and flattering! It ran a bit big on top for someone who is petite, but pulling the straps together made it work well. Length was good in heels too!

This dress was a cute fit and comfortable to wear. It was great for a dinner or outdoor party. Only thing is that it wrinkles pretty easily.

Good fit with a fun neckline
Dress fit well. Chest might be a little large for some but was a great fit with my strapless. Dress was a little long but I managed okay with platforms. Material is a tiny bit itchy but was fine for me to wear through the night. Fit and material looked great for a wedding!

Large and unflattering
The top was too loose and the shoulder pads fell in a funny way. The bodice just didn’t work on me in any way and looked weird. Likely better for a taller person.

Fun but a bit of an odd fit
It's not the most flattering style for large hips but my main complaint was that the short black piece of material kept riding up so you could see everything (making spans impossible). The fabric was nice, the top was very cute and fit petite shoulders, and the texture and length were positive Worn for a murder mystery masquerade ball (holiday party) and the dress went well.

Colors different, weird pleating
Maybe this only works on a taller person but the pleating was weirdly puffed out in a few spots below my bust and in back (and not because it was too tight which made it even weirder). Also, color looks very different from the picture. It’s bright blue, red, yellow. Like primary colors, not pink/purple or metallic.

Wasn't able to wear
Unfortunately, this dress did not fit right up top. It was a little too big (I'm petite up top) but the way it fell, it also exposed half my left boob in a weird way. It was way too uncovered to wear a bra, but I felt smooshed and exposed without one. Very nice dress, but too weird of a fit :(

Didn't work well in back for maternity
Because I had to pull the waist up above my bump, it caused a lot of fabric to gather in the back. The extra droopy fabric looked bad. May work on someone taller, or with a longer torso. Otherwise, the dress was pretty and looked like the pics.

Great for maternity!
I am 30 weeks pregnant, but about as big as 36 weeks with my first pregnancy. This dress worked well for my big bump. Because I had to up where the dress' zipper hits, I used a few safety pins to adjust the top straps. It was quite busty, but I am currently a 38DD/38DDD. Very comfortable for being pregnant. The color was a lot of fun as well! The length was just right with my belly in flats, and I am only 5'3" - so may be short on taller woman. With some safety pins, it was a great fit on petite shoulders. Also very forgiving to my currently extra large hips!

Looked kind of frumpy.
Part of the problem may be that I'm pregnant (5 months with a lot of belly). But for someone who is short and petite up top, the top was big and felt frumpy when zipped up. If I was taller and had slightly broader shoulders, I think it would have looked better. My belly zipped into the dress fine (a wee bit tight), but I think added to the frumpy look. If I was smaller all over and not pregnant, this dress would probably be fine for that type of petite person.

Did not work well with my pregnant belly (the top wouldn't stay on properly even though zipped fine)
This is a very pretty dress. However, the backless piece of the straps means it really needs to fit your shoulders and chest well. Because of my pregnant belly pushing everything up, and having petite shoulders, there was no way I felt like the straps would stay on/up more than 5 minutes. It did fit over my rather large 5-month pregnant belly easily though. It might even work better with a slightly smaller bust, or less petite shoulders. The dress is very pretty in person though.

This dress was great for a pregnant belly! I will be wearing this one for a wedding next month.
So the way it fits was great for my 5 month pregnant belly. This is my second pregnancy and my belly is definitely big. It was not at all tight, making me think it probably runs a bit big normally (although it could also be that it is hitting me higher due to the belly and may fit more snugly if it falls lower on the waist). I would need to put a pin in the straps because I'm petite up top, though big chested, and it can't hit in quite the right spot. However, it was great for the belly and is a very nice dress.

Was not able to wear pregnant.
I was not able to wear this dress. Just wanted to give other pregnant women a heads up that it seems stretchy or roomy, but definitely was not (for a 5 month belly). This is my second, and it may have worked at 5 months with my first, but it was far more fitted and rigid than I imagined it. It seems like a nice dress and felt dressier in person than the picture.

Not great for petite women
I did not end up wearing this dress, but I wanted to put a review for petite women. It was too large in the shoulders and went to my knee (5'3"). Also the whole dress really just looked kind of frumpy and did not hang well. Finally, at the bottom of the zipper (the little feathered skirt part) was not sewn together with the rest of the skirt. So it may be that my torso was too short (and my butt/hips too big), but it made this horrible bubble where the feathered part did not meet the zipper.
