Just ok.
This jacket was underwhelming, fabric and finish not as high quality as I expected and it wasn't very flattering. I didn't like the chunky buttons. Just generally not my style, so I didn't end up wearing it.

Pretty color, the back is what makes it special
The color is really pretty in person, just as pictured. The back is really where all the drama is and it does look stunning in person, however it's kind of boring from the front. I found the ruffle just long enough to not have to wear a bra, which was nice. The sides are cut pretty low so any bra I tried showed anyway. It ran true to size.

Cute in person but runs really tiny!
I was excited at how cute and well made this looked in person, but the fit is SO tiny. I am usually between a 6 and 8 so I ordered the 8 after reading reviews that it ran small and cropped. I am tall and figured I'd wear it with high waisted jeans. However, the fit was even smaller than expected, I could barely put it on. I'm hoping to give it another try when the 10 is available. I recommend going 2 sizes up!

Cute and cozy!
I'm loving this sweater, still haven't sent it back yet :) The stars have a little bit of shine so it works well for day or night, plus it's super soft and warm. The style is a little cropped but still works over normal mid-rise jeans without being too short (and I'm tall). So cozy, might have to keep this one!

Cute winter top
This top is a great option for dressing up a bit in winter. The heavier fabric was great for staying warm but still looking cute. Love the ruffle sleeve detail and because of the cutaway it doesn't get in the way! I wish it had a straight hem instead of a cinched hem, since it rode up a lot. It makes it less ideal for tall girls. Tall girls, you'll want to wear something high-waisted with this.

Cute, could wear this every day!
Loved this sweatshirt, the graphic look makes it feel more dressed up than a basic sweatshirt. My only complaint was that I could tell it had already been worn and washed a bunch of times. It wasn't damaged at all, but the lettering was starting to fade and it had clearly shrunk a bit. It had a very tailored fit instead of a little loose like you'd expect a sweatshirt to fit.

Runs extremely small
I'm a small-medium and usually order a medium in new brands to be safe, especially since I have broader shoulders. However the medium in this was still SO TINY. I couldn't even put it on. This was a disappointment because I love the color of this sweater and was so excited for it for fall! Size up 2x!

Great color, fabric is just OK
I love DVF and the print and color of this sweater were great. The look is cute, boxy, great for every day. I wouldn't buy this sweater though because the fabric was a little strange, not a soft knit, more of a very smooth poly knit. Looks fantastic but isn't very breathable. Still it was fun for a couple of wears without the investment!

Cute but not very warm
This was a very cute jacket and I definitely would have worn it if the weather had cooperated. Unfortunately by the time it arrived SF had transitioned from fall to winter and without a lining or closure it just wasn't warm enough. It would be perfect for early fall.

Fun, unusual print and great color!
Very cute print and color and high quality fabric made this a fun party dress for NYE. It does run small in the ribcage and bust so I wore the 6...and I needed it for the length anyway. I will say the cut of the arm holes is not the most flattering, but I don't think it's something other people notice, just the one wearing it!

Beautiful color, lots of compliments, but don't forget the spanx!
The long is very long, and would not have worked if I weren't tall AND wearing 3+ inch heels. The color is great and the jersey fabric feels very comfy for a formal gown. The slit is very high so keep in mind when choosing shape wear for underneath, which is a must since it's very clingy. Overall I liked this gown but wasn't in love with it.

This dress is so unusual, plus it's comfortable!
I absolutely love this dress! At this point I wish I owned it. I rented it once last year as well, wore a 4L then. I've probably gained a little weight since so the 6L fit great this time around. Both are probably fine, there doesn't seem to be a hug difference in size and the top runs a little loose. I got so many compliments because it's just a stunning color and the open back is unexpected. It's lined so very comfortable, high quality, and has pockets!

Thought this was beautiful in the photo but runs small. Did not wear.
Runs small in the rib cage -- I am normally a 4-6 and could not zip either. High waisted as well so not as flattering as the model photo. A long would maybe have hit me in the right spot but then would not have had the cute unusual hemline as in the photo.
