Wow!! 29weeks pregnant who???
So beautiful!!! Wore to a Black tie Tropical wedding. It runs a little large but that worked well for me with my belly. I had a little double sided tape on my panties so that the dress didn't flash them but otherwise no issues with the dress. Wore with pasties bc def not a bra dress and the fabric is very light and thin. Super comfortable overall. Ton of compliments.

What a dress! 28 weeks pregnant who??
What at amazing dress! It hugged and sucked. Straight on I couldn't even tell I was pregnant. I went with the 40 Based on other reviews. Effectively one size up from pre-pregnancy size in this brand.

Beautiful dress. 28wks pregnant
Ultimately I didn't wear it. I ordered a couple sizes up to account for pregnancy boob growth and waist. I had other options I felt more comfortable in but I could have worn it without issue.

Great pregnancy dress to dress up or down
Wore at 29 weeks. Super comfortable and the fabric is thick without being too heavy. Wore it to a rehearsal dinner as well as a casual day/evening with family. It was hard to give back!

The pattern is compliment grabbing!
This dress fits to size and is comfortable. I tied my bow at the back which was kind of annoying when seated, but you can tie in the front so not a big deal. People loved the tiger print at the bottoms of the dress.

Amazing pattern!
I should have sized down to the 25. I tend to vary depending on the brand. These pants are beautiful and very high waisted. The pant legs are very long too. I had to wear 4 inch heels so the bottoms wouldn't drag (just barely)! I think the fit would have been better had I gone down one size. Bc they were a little large they kind of gave of the "mom jean" vibe, I mean, def a "cool mom" but still no one really wants a fupa.... either way, excellent quality; would rent again in. Fits to size-ish

This coat is epic! It's super soft and comfortable. Not too heavy. Fits to size. The coat does all the work and you get to have all the compliments!

Has pockets!!
This dress is so subtly beautiful! It fits to size. The sleeves are a little short, but I think that's a preference thing. Additionally, because the top is a stretchy fabric you can have broader shoulders and still have flexibility. Definitely a more formal dress but still works in a business setting.

VA VA VOOM
This dress is SEXY! Fits to size and is so flattering! The back it boned so it can feel a little weird but it helps the V maintain its structure. The front has a built in bra. Idk how it'd work if you're bustier, but as someone who enjoys going braless, it felt unobtrusive but still supportive. Total winner!!

Darker color than pictured -- holds more than you think!
I LOVED this little nap sack! It's deceptive bc it looks so small but can hold so much! It was great to carry from day to night while on vacation, totally fit all the essentials and then some but never taking up any space. It's super cute and garnered a number of compliments. Also, added bonus, it's quite water resistant so I didn't have to worry about the items inside getting wet. 100% would rent again. I probably should have bought it.

So comfortable!
I lived in this while traveling! It was great to stay warm and comfortable on the airplane (for a 16hr flight!) and it was great on the ground serving as needed as a jacket or a sweater. It's a thick, resilient material, soft, and the hood is voluminous, so I could use it to shade my eyes while sleeping on the flights (also used an eye mask, but still)

Loved the bottom, hated the top.
Top wouldn't stay, even with fashion tape. Skirt is super cute and flouncy though. I have mixed feelings but wouldn't rent again. Spent too much of my day trying to make sure the girls didn't pop out and they're petty small all things considered...

Pockets!
So solid. Comfortable, cute. Material is thick, has bra strap clasps. Also don't necessarily need to wear a bra due to fabric thickness. Such a flattering cut!

Weekend and weekday
Loved it! Wore it for the Kentucky derby on a sunny warm day. And then also wore to work (pictured) on a rainy cooler day. Amazing garment. No give in fabric. Well-constructed. Not a lot of mobility in arms due to design, but also easy to take arms in and out of "sleeves" easily at any point without flashing someone.... could probably also be worn without arms in sleeves. The top would still stay up given construction.

It's a puzzle.
I am generally blessed with the ability to be able to wear most designs. Not this one. It was laughable how horrible it was on and I'm still not sure that I was wearing it correctly. I also think it was broken when I got it. I absolutely agree that this dress should come with an instruction manual. I thought it would be a cool "fashion" piece that would be "lady-hot;" it was not. Worth noting though that the materials used are beautiful and very high quality. All the more frustrating that it is impossible to wear.

Wore to a friend's bachelorette
So much fun! It was a little loose in the bust, so I had to wear a strapless bra. Loved it and got a ton of compliments. It's a tennis ball and it glows in the dark. So much fun!

Beautiful but didn't wear
Absolutely loved the fabric pattern and material. I would definitely size down. Only the small was available. I think it would have been perfect in extra small. It is VERY long though. Needed to wear 5/6 inch heels and it was still lightly sweeping the floor. Very elegant. Would love to be able to rent in an XS at some point.

Italian sizing. Accurate based on brand's size chart. Googled it.
Wore it with a blouse over for work and on its own for a concert after work. East to wear and beautiful colors/pattern. Many compliments.

Gorgeous!!!
So many compliments! Definitely does NOT "hold you in" but the fabric is thick enough that it's not see through and the knit has a beautiful, flattering pattern. The green is like a tennis ball, so be ready to be BRIGHT. Loved it and would absolutely rent again. Can easily be worn dressed up or down.

Ladylike and simple
Wore it twice, once to work -- the V is a bit deep for work, but not inappropriate. Material has no give but it fits according to measurements (I look up the brand's size chart when I'm not sure). Wonderful summer, sun dress!

Lots of compliments!
The V is deep and loose. Definitely needs to be worn with an under blouse. I used a black tank and it worked perfectly. It's a very comfortable dress and very light material.

Fun spring/summer dress
Deep V for work, but still fine if you have a small bust. The fabric is thick enough that you don't need to wear a bra, it's still comfortable though and allows for freedom of movement. It's a very flattering dress.

Beautiful and Feminine!
Would be ideal for a nice brunch or afternoon tea event! Worked fine for work on a summer day. Fits great! The bottom could have been a smidge more fitted, but it was comfortable and easy to wear.

Beautiful dress; deep open V though
Definitely recommend using fabric tape or pinning at the bust. It has a deep V down the front. Definitely discreet enough for work if small busted (I'm a B). Otherwise beautiful dress and gorgeous on. Light fabric, easy movement, rich color. Sad it doesn't have pockets.

Even better than I thought!
Fits like a glove that sucks and tucks while also letting you breathe. Magic! I was comfortable all day and didn't want to take it off when I got home! Warm and soft material.

Springtime in the dead of winter!
The color is bright and rich! It fits to size and maintains its shape all day (my photo is after a full day at work). Sweater material will keep you warm in winter. Def a great dress for spring though!

It's a pretty dress. And I was excited for the "wow" factor everyone spoke about but when I put it on I was severely underwhelmed.

Went as Solange Knowles. Showstopping dress! So sexy and altogether amazing! Definitely follow the sizing guide as it does not follow US sizing.

Enjoyable, 90's vibe
Good sweater shirt. Had good elasticity. Was warm. Subtly sexy due to its form-fitting nature. Runs a little small, but hardly noticeable.

Thick, warm material
Fits true to size. Holds you in while still being comfortable. Wasn't anything special, but the neckline was very pretty especially in the back. Great with tights on a cold day.
