Unwearable
This is a wrap dress. It hit me above my knee and does not wrap all the way around so it’s less secure than other wrap dresses. It was okay standing, but when I sat down it opened all the way at my lap. You could see my whole lap.

Bright, fun, unique for work
This is a flattering, thick knit skirt that did not sag or stretch out in an unflattering way throughout the day. I paired it with different “work tops” for the office, but it would have been cute with a crop and different shoes for a night out. The slit in the back makes it walkable.

Beautiful, flattering, unique, POCKETS
I wore this to work twice. I wished I’d had a nice brunch or lunch to wear it to as well. It is a beautiful dress that accentuates the waist - or creates one. The buttons at the waist were ever so slightly tight, but not so much that they pulled or popped open. Gorgeous dress.

Flattering on the body, but no stretch.
This dress is very flattering. There are a lot of buttons, but there is also a zipper in the middle, which certainly helps with the fit. My only complaint is that there is NO stretch. So, while it fit lovely when I was standing, those buttons at the lower part of the dress were putting in WORK when I sat down.

Pretty, comfortable, flowy.
Bring your black wardrobe into spring with this fun skirt! I’m 5’7” and the longer sides of the large hit right around my ankle, so keep in mind if you’re shorter. Waist band was comfortable and wide enough to be flattering. No digging at all. I probably could have gone down a size.

Size Worn: 10R
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 160lbs
Bust: 38C
Fabric and cut look like they’d be cute - if it fit.
I’m fairly broad across the shoulders, ribs, and chest (38 C). I got the large and I’m generally a 10, sometimes 12. The dress is a lovely material and I can tell it would be very flattering if it fits you. But, I could only get it buttoned to right below my ribs. The buttons were about 6 inches apart at my chest. There was NO HOPE of this thing closing. I don’t think a size or even 2 sizes up (if that exists) would have worked. So, keep that in mind if you are broad/athletically built across the top.

Cute dress, but not ideal for the office. Too short and low cut.
This is a really cute dress. But, the wrap didn’t wrap far enough so when I sat the front would flap open and that little snap at the bust wouldn’t stay snapped for even half a second. I wore a slip under, which was the best choice for me.

Great color, great fit. Linen, but structured. Will rent again.
Beautiful green dress that is very flattering in its cut. It fit really well and the length was office appropriate. The material is a thicker linen, so it does get some wrinkles, but not as badly as thin linen. Only complaint is that it should have pockets!

Stripes are super flattering. Material is a nice, medium weight knit with just enough stretch.
This is a very flattering dress. The stripes go in all the right directions to work with all figures (I presume). I’m 5’7” and it comes below my knees, so it may be a bit long for the more petite wearers.

Very cute pants, soft and silky material. Waist has no stretch.
These pants are very pretty. The print is lovely, especially the tonal polka dots. Nice high waist and flowy leg. My legs looked very long. But, there is no stretch at the waist so the waistband was a little snug right under my ribs. I’m pretty straight waisted. I would rent again, maybe the full outfit.

Cute dress, lots of compliments, loved the pockets.
I was worried that this dress would be too tight across my chest, but it was perfect. Very comfortable. The drop waist was surprisingly flattering. I received a lot of compliments. The color was not the best for my pale skin tone, but that’s a me issue! Loved the dress and would absolutely rent again.

This dress is unique, lightweight, beautifully colored. Only complaint is the gaping at the chest.
Love this dress. It’s comfortable, the colors are beautiful, the hem is a lot of fun. I received a lot of compliments. The only issue is that it gapes at the button at my chest. I’m generally a size 10, but I got this in a 12. I’m a 38C and, yet, the buttons on the 12 still pull. I could wear this in a 10 everywhere else on my body, but if I sized up to a 14, it would be huge. I wish designers could figure out chest buttons.

Very comfortable, versatile pants.
I wore these to work with a black shell and black flats. Would have been cute with a blazer if it weren’t triple digits outside. I’m typically a 10 in pants, but the 12 fit me in the waist perfectly. Nothing was clingy, the length was perfect. Very flattering. I could also see these being great for a vacation and more casual wear.

Flattering office appropriate dress with a twist.
This dress was so flattering. The lines worked well for my figure. The material is a nice thick knit that did not stretch out and lose shape during the day. Sleeves were comfortable. Really a slam dunk.

Gorgeous flattering with the draping. Size up one or 2 sizes - no stretch.
This is a beautifully draped fabric with a surprising and subtle texture. It hangs beautifully. The slit is very nice and there is a waist cut out on the sleeve side, which is a nice sexy surprise. The slit makes it very walkable. There is no stretch and it does run a bit small, especially if you’re a bit broad in the ribs/chest, so size up.

Too short, rough fabric, couldn’t zip, no stretch.
This dress looked cute online, but in person the fabric is not at all float - it’s a stiff cotton and, with the print, it looked like a picnic tablecloth. It didn’t come close to fitting in the chest/shoulders and was very short.

Not flattering.
This was tight across my bust and where the seams hit, it made me look several months pregnant or very bloated. I swear it also emphasized back rolls. Material is nice as was quality. May look great on a smaller chest or pear shaped individual.

Would be cute - if it fit.
I generally wear between a US 8 or 10 in bottoms (29 to 30" waist on jeans). Got this in the size recommended for me and it was at least 1 size too small. 2 sizes up would have been most comfortable, but it's hard to tell how the rest of the skirt would have looked.

Not for anyone over 5'4", great material and color.
I should have paid closer attention to the reviews. The fabric is high quality and the color is excellent. Unfortunately, it was WAY TOO SHORT everywhere for my 5'7" frame. It rode up in all spaces it could ride up and the legs were super short.

Classy, good fit, lots of compliments.
My usual size is 10R and rented this dress in a 10. I have an inverted triangle shape - broad shouldered and broad across the chest. It fit across the chest but was on the edge of being too snug. I'm 5'7" and the slit started about 2 inches above my knee. Would have been a great transition piece to wear to an evening event following the work day. I got a ton of compliments and it felt like a power dress.
