Barrel- lite
Cute jeans. As a middle aged woman, I liked how they were trendy without being crazy big barrel legged. Run loose, so safe to size down if on the fence- a 26 probably would have also worked for me (as I also find Madewell runs big in general).

Great work pants but size down!!
Size down at least one size, if not two. Otherwise sits too low in the waist with a droopy crotch. After figuring this out, I re ordered in a smaller size and loved them.

Cozy and cute, runs TTS
I ordered a med as I hate a tight wool sweater, but a small would have been fine. Boxy and cropped (in a cute way), sleeves slightly long. So no need to size up. Happy there was no piling too! Great rent for my current frigid weather.

Seems to run small
I typically wear a 26 in Madewell jeans and I couldn't get these 27s to zip!! They either run very small or they really shrank! All my other closes in my shipment fit in my usual size so I don't think my body changed.

Did not wear
Incredibly unflattering on me, looked like I gained 10 pounds. Did look cute on other people in their photos. Just not for me.

So cute
Scandinavian flair. Sleeves a bit short but I think that was the intention (bracelet length?). Slightly itchy but so cute I didn't care.

Warm, fitted
I typically wear a small or medium in sweaters, this was a med, sleeves perfect on me. Not exactly cropped but body is definitely on the fitted/ shorter side. Has wool but the only part I found itchy were the tags on the side so I wore with a fitted t shirt underneath.

Beautiful skirt but need 3 hands to zip
Beautiful skirt, runs TTS. But it drove me crazy to put it on- why a does a skirt that is otherwise beautifully made and retails for $675 not have a hook and eye at the top of the zipper!?? The waistband is elastic and the top pulls apart when you try to zip the very stubborn zipper. But otherwise a great unique skirt.

Silver sparkles
Dress fit great but I ended up not wearing it. The gold buttons and silver sparkles combined with the lower neckline and hemline was just too much for my conservative office setting.

Cute change from jeans
Color very cool. Fit true to size, but they do stretch out a bit so size down if in between sizes.

Comfortable for work
Beautiful knit top (not a stiff blazer). I usually wear a 4-6 but wasn’t sure how this ran so I ordered a med, runs true to size IMO, med on the loose side for me but was still cute. Wore with a pencil skirt to work and with jeans out and about. Very comfortable. Sorry no picture. It’s definitely worth a rent!

Such a good work shirt
Love this for work- love the sleeves and neckline. Special details without being over the top- what I need for my conservative office. Size 6 had lots a room in the bust/ waist- not a fitted shirt: I did not try a smaller size. I wore it tucked in as untucked it’s pretty voluminous.

Trendy but not over the top
Worried these would be too trendy for me but they passed my teenage kid’s fit check :). So cute. Definitely run large, I like how they fit a bit loose/ lower on the waist but size down if you want them to sit higher.

Beautiful but needs a pin
Loved the material- heavy satin. Needed a pin for modesty as I wore to a work dinner. But not too cropped- able to wear with high waisted pants without my belly showing.
