Loose on top, tight on bottom
There is no real stretch to the dress, so if you’re bottom blessed, size up! Be warned, though- the top is quite spacious & flowy which would certainly make room for wardrobe errors. Beautiful color and silhouette, though! Such a shame it didn’t fit me.

Beautiful but get help putting on and taking off
This dress was so heavy, almost like a curtain, but it laid so beautifully. Was a bit long on me, but I’m short. It doesn’t have pockets! Definitely felt like it should. It is hard work to get it on and take it off, especially to be sure the corset is laced up correctly, so just have a hand free for an assist.

It fit, but just doesn’t look right
Fit was fine; MUCH longer than I anticipated. Unsure about the layered fabric. Thought I looked like a bed skirt being strangled by a 70s lampshade. Did not even end up wearing it because it looked so odd.

Terribly unflattering
Something about the cut & fit did NOT work on my frame. It didn’t sit well at the waist and billowed outwards constantly. I had zero shape whatsoever. Such a shame because the print was adorable. I wore it, regardless, and was mad that I did after looking at pictures, lol.

Adorable but SO small.
Be warned, the material has NO give whatsoever, so it runs one, maybe two, sizes small. I was so sad I couldn’t wear it. I’ll get a new size eventually and try again because with the matching top it is absolutely adorable.

Runs very small
It is a most adorable little sweater but know that it runs VERY small. Even though the arms & waist are elastic, they don’t give much. And the eyelet material has 0 give. Size up at LEAST one, or two even.

Not flattering
I loved the thick and layered material for an outdoor fall wedding; it was warm and perfect. However, the fit was odd. The straps position on the front give you the dreaded “pit fat” if they are too tight, and as soon as you loosen them, the straps slip. I couldn’t find a comfortable medium. The material starts to fluff out at the waist, and it gave “pregnancy” vibes. Overall, not a very flattering dress.

Warm, but large
The coat was super soft and warm, however I looked like an abominable snowman in it. The listing photos didn’t do it justice for how big this coat is; not very flattering. It did it’s job, though and I got a lot of compliments.

Tons of compliments
Stunning, good fit, & wasn’t too hot for an outdoor wedding. Size up if you’re in between because there’s 0 give in the fabric. Prob wouldn’t recommend for a larger chest because of how low it sits.

5 stars for look, 1 star for comfort
I was in awe how incredible this dress looked! However, it was terribly uncomfortable. Like the other reviews stated, there's no give in the skirt part, so if you have thiccc thighs like me, SIZE UP. Or don't sit down, whichever! The straps sit in an odd place, just riiiiight at the bottom of the shoulder, so it felt like it was constantly going to slip, but it didn't. Overall, loved how this dress looked, but was not a comfortable time.

POCKETS.
This was my back-up style, but boy, I had a hard time saying 'no' to it. The color was gorgeous, and the slight pattern to the material was gorgeous. The tie at the waist really accentuates you well, before billowing down. I can see myself renting this as my go-to next time! It was very pretty, and fit true to size.

True to size, wonderful material, & POCKETS
This dress fit like a dream. I have broad shoulders, broad hips but a small waist, so I have a hard time finding dresses I like- ESPECIALLY strapless (terrified of armpit fat). This dress wasn't too tight up top, fit just enough at the waist, and flowed down very nicely. The pattern was lovely, and the dress wasn't dragging the ground; only 5'2 so that's a real issue. Received so many compliments and felt amazing!

Fit like a glove, a little short
Fit was perfect; I am typically a 4, and I wore the 4. Not too tight, and not too loose. Fabric did not "give" a lot, so the fabric simply laid on me. Received many compliments! Only con; it is a BIT short. I am 5'2, and was taking extra precautions when sitting. Beautiful!

Sleek, stylish, chic!
My comfort is usually in Medium dresses, but as the reviews indicate, it runs a wee small because of the Spanx-like slip underneath. The Small was SO perfect. I am 5'2, 125lbs and athletic/slim, and this dress structured my silhouette perfectly. The dress had a few pulls on the ends of the lace, as well as a few frayed elastic ends, but nothing anyone else noticed. I got a ton of compliments.
