Big & Bright
Fun top that runs big, especially the sleeves.

Basic striped sweater
Went a size down so it wouldn't be oversized.

Bold jacket that received a ton of compliments
A fun, bold jacket but material is a bit stiff/plasticity. Doesn't keep you warm, but easily can fit over a sweater since oversized. I went down 1 size and would potentially rent again 1 more size down to be more fitted.

GOOD AMERICAN
Size Worn: 2
Usual Size: 12

Fun jacket, but definitely oversized
Would have preferred this at least 1 size down if not 2. Was very oversized but was able to wear over a sweater with no problem. Not super warm since the sleeves are a plasticity pleather

Beautiful, well made blazer with a hint of sparkle and really strong shoulders!
Loved this blazer. Went down 2 sizes since I preferred it to be more fitted than over sized, but feel like 1 size down would have worked too and been a little more roomier.

Showstopper
So many compliments on this jacket. Wish I could have worn it with a dress or shorts but was colder than anticipated. Very versatile bc the zipper works both ways and you can tighten the bottom to make more like a dress even.

Oversized Drawstring Jacket
Victor Alfaro x RTR
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 5"

Great jacket, just a little too snug/short
Absolutely loved but found it to be a little snug/short for me. I do have broad shoulders and large chest. Likely would size up next time for a more comfortable fit

Great jacket but was more like a cropped fit.

Don't be fooled by the size-runs really big!
I'm usually a L/12 and this sizing is a bit weird. I went with the XS and it was HUGE! I probably could have gone down 2 sizes. It was also a bit long and hit at an unflattering length for me.

Vintage Glam!
This coat/blazer reminded me of a coat my nana had. A bit on the larger size, but liked the oversize look rather than being tight/ fitted. Lots of compliments too!

Great bag, no interior pockets though
Fairy large and great sturdy bag. I prefer at least one pocket to help organize contents.

Loeffler Randall

Super warm/comfortable
Got a ton of compliments on it and perfect for a winter day since so cozy. It maybe runs a little large/boxy but it tends to rise up so preferred the larger fit.

Short and not for the busty
Sadly the shirt is not for large chests. The wrap around leaves a gap and super short and just not flattering.

Like a sweatshirt disguised as a Moto jacket
Wasn't really expecting it to be such a soft material. Super comfortable yet stylish. Maybe a few too many big zippers, but whatever.

Mixed Feelings
Think if I sized down the fit would have been better. Loved the collar, but wouldn't stay flipped over to show the stripes-although the model doesn't have it flipped so I guess not how it was intended. The coat had a musty/old smell to it and I think it's a fairly new item since only 1 other review. I may give it another shot in another size. Oh and to piggy back off the other review: it does have pockets. They may have been sewn shut but can easily remove.

Nice, warm sweater with fun detail
Large fit fine, but a bit big. May try a Med if intent again for a more tailored look. The material was much thicker than expected but still liked the sweater overall.

Bold & Warm!
Nice long length. It's super heavy material. Ordered a size down assuming it was going to run big-happy I did bc the Med was perfect for me. Not too oversized or tight.

Little Snug -good for cooler weather
Great jacket- a bit stiff though. A little too snug for my preference, but have broad shoulders/large chest, so not best for me.

Felt very Lady Gaga-esque
Structured shoulders kept its shape all night. Made my broad shoulders look broader, but didn't care since such a fun & unique top. Slightly sheer.

Not as big as others say
I'm typically a Large in tops and went with a medium since everyone said it ran big. The medium fit but was more on the tight side and would have preferred sticking with the large. I do have a larger chest/broader shoulders, so perhaps just me.

Simple but Fashionable
Love a good bomber. Felt it was a bit on the shorter/tighter size than preferred but still fit/wore and liked it.

Slim fit so sized up
Super flattering and material is so soft. I did size up since it was a slim fit and it fit great even with a large chest.

Size up
Sized up a size as recommended by others and fit great. A bit tight in the chest/shoulders since a large chest, but wasn't uncomfortable.

Such a shame...
Love the dress, but the fit is all off. I read reviews that the chest ran small so sized up, but even the XL still gave me double pancake boob since it was so tight and unwearable. Thought the bottom would be way too oversize in XL, but wasn't the case. It fit perfectly except for the chest. Highly recommend though for those with smaller chests/upper frame.

So extra
Randomly decided to try this and happy I did. You can easily dress this up or down. I wore with a black tank and also with a white tee to change up the look. Fit me great, but I have broad shoulders/large chest, so may actually run a little on the large side.

Not your everyday sweater
I wasn't expecting the fabric to be a stretchy body-con type of material. It runs big, so it wasn't a tight fit. Wouldn't purchase, but it's something different to try out and change up the wardrobe.

Mixed Feelings
I'm typically a 12, but this was plus size and figured I'd give it a try since blazers tend to be too tight on me since I have broad shoulders. It was understandably more of a boyfriend fit but since I wore open, it was fine. The fabric is a bit thin/stiff and the interior looks cheap, but I did like the design and got compliments on it. May not be able to tell from photos, but there's lavender lines as well. Wouldn't buy, but good for a rental.

Super thin
Very thin material. Large chest, so unfortunately too tight in the chest area and huge gap in the button area. Otherwise fit was okay everywhere else.

Kind of obsessed
Didn't really love at first because it fits but if I raise my hands the entire dress rides up. It's a thick dress but flattering. Will have to wear with dark tights for fear of flashing the world, but perfect for winter themed events!

Has potential...if it fits you
Cute dress, but sadly too small for me. Usually I'm fine in Free People, but the top section was way too tight for my chest/back (but I do have broad shoulders/large chest). It fit if I didn't button...little on the short side, but if you have a smaller frame...it probably would end up being a little longer anyway.

Love!
Such a great looking bag...even my dad complimented it right away which is so unlike him! Only annoying aspect is the front buckle can be a pain to close and requires both hands...but maybe just because it came brand new.

Ok Top
Not in love with the top, but still wore. Just more on the basic side. Runs big as I'm typically a size L/12, but the 10 was still on the oversized side.

Too Small/Tight
Found this to run on the small size. It was shorter than anticipated and too tight to wear. Fabric was more stiff than I'd prefer too
