Almost perfect, weird neck
I LOVE the idea of this dress. The print is great and unique and the mesh is flattering and comfy. However, the neck is so weird. It’s not tight enough to be a turtle or mock neck but not big enough to be a cowl. It’s just weird and droopy.

Skip the lace sack
The fabric is gorgeous - there are little embellishments on top of the lace that I didn’t notice in the picture. It’s high quality but completely shapeless. Maybe if you’re very slim and straight this would work but it wasn’t slim enough or flared enough for me. It’s a pretty lace rectangle.

Too much fabric!!
I’ve been waiting for a year for an event to come up and for this dress to be available because I think it’s so cute. I ordered it for my bachelorette party, sizing up as other reviewers suggested. The 6 fit my torso and hips but the extra fabric gathered across the front made it so bulky and look tighter than it actually was. It was so distracting - couldn’t wear it and sent it back.

Lining kept showing
I wanted to love this - the print is great, the bias cut is flattering even for girls with hips like me - but the lining kept coming up around the neckline and just looked weird. Maybe wouldn’t do that if you have more of a chest than I do. Tried taping it but just make the fabric pucker. Too bad - the back is great!

It’s giving X-ray vision
Not quite my style in the end, but it’s a fun take on a black T-shirt dress. Stretchy, comfy material and a truly unique design. I’m short and it came all the way to my ankles, making it look a bit more severe I think. Feels write for a Halloween party but I wouldn’t know how else to style it…

Twirly, polkadot moment
I love this dress because you slip it on and you instantly look chic. The neckline is a bit low but I like a deep V, and the two slits are super sassy. They give an otherwise potentially overly sweet-looking dress some edge. The torso was a bit long on me since I’m petite and I wanted more of a cinched waist so added a belt and really liked the way it bloused/flared out. I probably could have sized down - the waist is elastic and the top was roomy on me. It still worked though, and it felt like an effortless but dressed up look.

Colors appeared different
In person, I realized this jacket is red, black, and white only. Online it looked more pink. So just beware of that - I wanted it to fit more like the model photo but it wasn’t the right proportions on my shorter, hippier frame to wear buttoned in that way.

Sexy tv static
Super unusual pattern - loved the graphic lines. It’s a thick knit so very comfortable, warm, and flattering - it holds you in. The back slit is sassy. I’m petite so this went pretty much to my ankles but I liked the look. Even though I have wider hips, the fabric didn’t look stretched so I’m glad I went with the small. Might buy!

MEOW
These arrived with tags on. They aren’t as cropped on me given I’m only 5’3” but the fit is killer. I got my true size 27 and it’s a bit tight but I wouldn’t have gone up. The flare is fun and the two-tone of the leopard print contours the body in a very flattering way. These might have to stay with me..

Neither cropped, nor oversized enough
For me, this was a near win. I love the color and it's super cozy but it was neither oversized enough or cropped enough to really work for my body. If I had sized up ithe arms would have been super long. But if I had sized down to get the right length I think it would have been too tight in the chest. Oh well.

Good in theory, too long for petites
I liked the ease of this dress, but I need a petite version. The proportions were off and everything was too long. Comfy material and flattering. Also might just be me (lol) but I got really sweaty in this dress...

Love the print, fits a bit big
As an art historian, I loved the whimsy of the print - dogs + birth of Venus is an amazing combo. I got tons of compliments on it. It is sheer so I wore a nude bralette underneath. I did find the shoulders weirdly big and the length/arms long, but I wouldn't wanted to have sized down for fear of it being too snug.

Lots of compliments!
I wore this so much! Love the green contrast trim and the cropped fit. Looked good with all kinds of trousers/jeans but I could also see it working with skirts. The knit is pretty thick and is cozy and keeps its shape even after multiple wears.

Cute, slightly flared trousers
I ordered a 6, one up from my regular size, bc I didn't want them to be too tight across the hips. I'm glad I did! They fit well through the thighs/hips though they were a bit longer on me since I'm petit. They didn't have quite the same cropped look as the model picture. They got a bit stretched out after a couple wears but a cute, comfortable pair of pants to throw into the daily rotation. Looked good with cropped sweaters and sneakers.

Beautiful, slightly metallic dress.
Love the print and the colors - great for fall/winter date night with leather boots. The fabric has a slight metallic sheen to it which makes it feel more dressy. It was quite tight on me and I am petite/have a small bust. I do have wider hips/fuller bum so it was tighter there than I would have normally liked but the pattern camouflaged any stretching.

Elmo, but make it fashion
It's a bit like wearing a muppet but still felt very cozy and chic. The coat has neat clasps to actually keep it closed which was a big plus. It was lined inside with a kind of PJ-like fabric so quite snug and cozy (but not fur on the inside). The color is a true red. It was a tad long on me - I would have preferred either a longer coat or a truly cropped one. It hit right at my hips which felt a bit off in terms of proportions but worked well enough.

Wore it every day then bought it.
Obsessed with this jumper. I’m glad I sized up based on other reviews. It’s very cropped! I’m only 5’3” and the medium was perfect. Cute and cropped but not too exposing. Looks great with leggings for an athleisure vibe, but also with jeans and even skirts for a preppy casual look. I’ve even slept in it. It’s soft and warm and the zip neck is very flattering.

SO CUTE
I loved this vest. The color is fab (and this chartreuse green is on trend) and I loved the big collar. I got so many compliments every time I wore it. It's freezing in Boston so I had to do a lot of layering but it worked! I was going to buy it but I think I'll wait for the 4 to come up and get that one instead. The 2 was just a bit too cropped on me (and I'm only 5'3"). It looked fine with high waisted jeans but for summer and other ways of wearing it I think I'll want it slightly longer.

Cute, cropped quilted jacket!
Definitely a cropped fit - I'm only 5'3" and it ended right at my natural waist. The arms are 3/4 length, I would say. It's a pretty lightweight jacket but good for layering. Looked great over a thin turtleneck and would look great with a simple tank and jeans. A fun jacket that can to casual or professional.

Good layering piece, perhaps not for petites
Well made, cute, and on trend but it was too boxy/long/oversized for me, I think. I'm 5'3" and it looked less slouchy cool and more kid playing dress up...

Cute knit skirt
I am generally between a medium and a small (can be anywhere from a 2-6 in skirts) because I have a fuller hips/bum but the small fit well. The skirt held its color/print even when stretched which is a plus. Thick material and looked cute with the set but a bit too professional/formal for everyday which is why I didn't wear it much.

Definitely size up.
Based on reviews I sized up to the medium and glad I did. I’m short torso-ed and petite and still needed a medium. The material is quite thick and padded - good for winter - and I liked the colors and print.

Great quality, hard to style
This dress is great quality - thick, rich fabric, good details, pretty pleats - but I just couldn’t figure out how to style it for winter. Tried with tights, turtlenecks, and everything felt very school uniform…collared shirt might be the way to go.

Bombshell moment
Felt like a total babe. Slinky but not constricting. It is a little sheer so nude undergarments or tights are a good idea. I’m 5’3” and it was just at my ankles. Loved it!

On-trend trapeze dress
I was excited to try this Kate Spade dress given the leopard print trend this season. I am happy with the dress but wouldn’t rush out to buy it, which makes it a solid rental option imo. It is a tent dress so if you’re particularly slight you might want to size down. I got the XS even though I am generally more of a S since I have wider hips. The XS was a good length for work (though it could be a bit short in the back depending on how you bend over!) and I liked the tie at the neck. My only complain as that it doesn’t breathe at all, so you’re likely to sweat a bit if you’re anything like me…

Love it!
I loved this dress and got so many complements on it! Would honestly love to own it. It’s super comfy and flattering - the knit is thick and holds its shape. There is an attached slip (with adjustable straps) so you don’t have to worry about it being exposed. Great for petites too since it wasn’t too long. It’s a winner for winter :)

Order up!
If you’re hippy at all order up - this did not fit around my thighs. I agree with other reviewers, too, that it’s very tight and constricting around the shoulders. Good in theory but just didn’t work on my body type.

Thin printed synthetic, not knit!
I ordered this thinking that it was more of a knit material and would be a heavier fabric suitable for fall/colder weather but it is a very thin material with the print just printed on it (rather than woven as I thought). Interesting but not what I had in mind.

Just okay.
I'm generally a petite 2 in blazers (J. Crew, Veronica Beard) and the XS fit well in terms of length, but it was just okay as a look. I think it was just my style preference.

Another great Veronica Beard blazer
Sizing is consistent with other blazers from the brand. I got a 2 and it was perfect. I am petite so oversized jackets tend to swallow me up, but this one had great proportions. Looked great over a tank and jeans or turtleneck and skirt. Would keep it if it weren't a little pricy.

Just ok
Wanted to like these jeans but they were just okay. Not quite loose enough to be properly straight or baggy. Not tight enough to be fitted. Waist fit true to size and the wash is a nice stony gray but only wore once and sending back.

Cute, cottage-core comfort
Is it revolutionary? No. But it’s cute and comfortable and looks good with pretty much everything. The sleeves are definitely big but it’s cute and the neckline is very flattering. The bodice holds you in and gives you a great shape. The fabric definitely attracts fuzz and hair but that’s a minor thing.

Nice jacket just very square
Cute but more business-y than I was going for. Tried to wear it as a kind of cropped top with jeans and it just looked very square on me. I think it wasn’t quite cropped enough since I have a short torso. Good for work or more professional outfits though. Thicker fabric and a good weight for spring weather.

This dress is very sweet and it fit well. The A-line is very flattering and the straps are adjustable. You can wear a bra with it which is always nice. But it just didn’t have a wow-factor for me. A little too precious.
