Nice, just not my style
Cute pants, but the style was just too different than what I'm used to (usually wear straight / skinny styles), and I just couldn't get used to it. Maybe I'll try again sometime.

Just fine
The sizing on this dress is a little off for petites (particularly if you have a shorter waist). But it was fine with a blazer.

Nice skirt
Cute skirt. Nice length and fine for work with tights. A little big for me in the waist, but I tend to expect that in skirts bc I'm a bit pear shaped.

Comfortable, cute, lots of compliments!
Love, love, love this sweater. I got tons of compliments on the detailing, and I always felt put together and comfortable. The sweater is slightly scratchy, though, so if you have sensitive skin, just be aware. I always wore a tank top underneath and was perfectly comfy.

Beautiful dress
Even though I couldn't wear this dress, I had to still give it 4 stars. It's soooo beautiful. The difficulty with it is that the fabric has no give at all and the hip is made a little narrower. There's room in the waist for a little fat and the bust was a smidge loose on me (34D) but looked fine. It was just, sadly, that the hip and butt were wayyyyyyy too tight for me. I'd say this dress is probably mostly for folks with a narrower frame.

Believe the reviews
I naively thought the other reviews might've been exaggerating a little..... they weren't. The large is too small for a 41" hip, and the skirt barely covered my rear end (partially bc it was too tight and high waisted), even though I'm 5'4". This skirt is only for people who run (my guess) size 8 and below.

Wanted to like it...
I really wanted to like this dress, but the size 10 was wayyyyyy to large in the top and a bit snug in the hip. I'm a 36D w 41" hip. Because I'm a bit pear shaped, I typically go for a 10 and just expect the top to be a little loose. This was clearly made for a less curvy person in the hip and larger in the bust.

Pretty but too loose in the top.
I read other reviews and went on the larger end of my usual, and it was a mistake. I'm a bit pear shaped and usually size dresses based on my hip size. Because this dress is so loose and flowy, however, I should have sized from my waist size. An 8 probably would have been perfect.

Beautiful but small
I typically run a 6 - 10 in tops, but even the 10 in this was too tight on the arms and shoulders. If you have thinner arms, it probably will be fine. Otherwise, size up 1 - 2

Beautiful and flowy
Absolutely loved this dress. I typically wear a 10 based on hip size (I'm a bit pear shaped) but was able to wear a 6 for this. It was a touch too small around the waist (an 8 would have been perfect) but the overall looseness allowed it to still work and look beautiful! At 5'4", it was still a little too long with 2 1/2" heels, but functional. Fashion tape is a must for the top or the shoulders will slip.

Great hem - too big
Pretty, loose, dress, but just too loose in the top, especially the arm holes.

Beautiful color!
Got lots of compliments! Great color and great cut for curvy petites. A little loose in the top but was just fine with a little fashion tape.

Lovely color - too tight
Top fit was fine but not really made for curvy women.

Nice shirt
Nice shirt, just the style masculine with a feminine touch type shirt I like. I should have known a medium would have been a better fit, though. It was just a touch too tight in the shoulders and arms - I usually go back and forth between a medium and a small depending on the make of a shirt. This was loose enough (with a touch of fashion tape to prevent gaps) in the chest area, but the shoulders and arms run a true small.

Beautiful
I love, love, love this dress, though I'm unsure if I'll actually wear it. It hugs my curves and the neckline is gorgeous, but, as a very curvy petite, I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with just how snug it is around my butt, but it definitely looked nice and would still be work appropriate. Interestingly, my partner, who is about 4 inches taller than I am and weighs about 15 pounds less, also tried it on, and it looked great on her, too! This is the kind of dress that you buy according to the fit in the top and the make of the dress allows for variation elsewhere. It just depends on how comfortable you are with how form fitting it is.

Great loose blazer
I think some might have found the large too big, but I liked the looseness and thought the structure of the jacket was just right to make it look slimming with a deep v blouse and tighter pants. Got lots of compliments!

Lovely dress
I loved this dress, the top in particular. Arms were just slightly long, as well as the torso (I'm petite), but it was close enough to be basically unnoticeable. Otherwise, fit was great. For me, personally, the skirt was also a bit short in the back, but I'm also full-figured and just not used to wearing skirts that don't come all the way to the top of the knee.
