Nice, structured jumpsuit

Unfortunately this was not made for a longer torso. I am sure it's great on someone else. Well constructed, heavier, solid.

Nice dress but I rented another I liked more, so did not wear this one much.

Heavier than I thought

This was a nice little jacket to throw on. I wore it with boots and tight pants.

Cute, but too large

I really wanted to like this one, but it was just so large on me, that I didn't wear it. Otherwise it would have been cute.

Cute long sweater.

Can be worn over leggings, jeans or as dress. I sized up and should not have. So I would recommend going with your normal size. It has good weight.

Loved it, but didn't wear.

I loved this dress! Unfortunately, with the current situation, I didn't have a reason to wear it. I held on to it in hopes the price would drop, but it didn't. Sent it back and will keep in mind for the future.

Love it!

I absolutely loved this the first time, but it was too large. I sized down and now don't really want to send it back. Might be a keeper... If the price ends up being right. I love it!

Cute, but thick for warm temperatures.

I have a longer torso and was surprised it fit. I do think it's cute, but it is thick. So I am not sure what the right season would be for this... Maybe the transition from spring to summer, or summer into fall.

Cute different coat

I like to be a bit different and this coat fits the bill. It is really paired with colors I have in my closet: black, white, beige,browns and red and blue jeans. I wore it with brown boots, mustard top, a black scarf and jeans. It looked nice. I do like the large pockets! The size 14 provided me enough room in the shoulders and arms (this girl has out-of-shape weightlifter arms and needs a bit of more space), but I had extra room in the waist as it isn't tailored slimmer in the waist. I can tell my husband isn't the biggest fan, so I will probably try something else soon.

Nice pair of jeans - medium/high-rise on the smaller side

This is a nice pair of jeans with a good amount of stretch. I do feel they are slightly on the smaller size, but it could have to do with where the "high" rise stops. I have a longer torso and for me they are more of a mid-rise, cutting into my "extra" in a not so flattering spot. If they were an inch higher, I don't think I would have that problem. I still wore them and will give them another shot today, but I think I have other jeans that fit me better, for sure.

Not with these thighs..

I was excited to try these, but unfortunately I couldn't get them over my thighs. I am sure they are beautiful on a more lanky, slimmer or less curvy person with my size. The Jean material is nice and heavy, but no stretch. They did look nice, but I wouldn't recommend them if you are a true curvy hourglass (with thighs and butt to match), taller and usually a 12.

Absolutely beautiful

I didn't wear this only because I don't really like to show my legs as much. But overall it was an absolutely stunning gown and it was definitely a contender (even with showing my legs). I usually wear a 12 but thought I needed the 14 for my thighs. Unfortunately the 14 was slightly loose on my chest (I have D cups). So I might have been able to get away with a 12 though, and in that case maybe I would have even worn it. I just had another dress that I felt more comfortable in, so I went with that one. The blue is amazing and the cut flattering. The long lenght was great with heels. I might try this one again in a 12 for another event.

Beautiful, classy, too tame for me

This is a stunning dress, made from spandex-like material. It looked really pretty, but was a bit too tame for me. I would recommend it to others for formal affairs, theater visits, fancy dinners and similar...

Tight in legs

I normally wear a size 12 and occasionally have to go up to a 14. I ordered a 14 L, which fit almost like a glove, but only when standing. There is no give in the thigh area, and I am a true full-figured hourglass with real curves, including my thighs. I really, really, really wanted to wear this dress, but unless I pulled it up (so the split sat very high on my thigh), wouldn't have been able to sit AT ALL. But otherwise it was my favorite dress. I have not yet found the one I will actually wear, but had to return this one.

Didn't wear this one, but pretty color

I didn't choose this one for the event I was going to attend... I couldn't zip it up in the back - my ribcage was just too wide. The sleeves were cut tight, like other reviews as well. I would definitely recommend sizing up if in-between sizes, but maybe even in general. I do believe it is probably prettier on someone more petite. I liked the color and the cut overall, but it seemed a bit faded and plenty of "loved" to me.

More beautiful than the pictures

This dress is beautiful and the print is very nice, much nicer than the pictures. I ordered multiple dresses to try in preparation for an event I will be attending. I have full sleeve tattoos and between my tattoos and the print it was all just too busy. The bow made me feel a little like a wrapped gift, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing. ;) I do think it is beautiful and I would say if you are considering trying it, you should definitely give it a shot! It's structured to support well and the fabric is nice and thick. Fits true to size, if in between sizes I would recommend going up.

Beautiful, flattering gown

Loved the color and cut, but did not choose to wear it simply because the color clashed with my husband's jacket. It was definitely a strong contender for me and I would rent it again for another event. It was flattering for my curves, sexy but classy. The fabric is nice and heavy and the pockets are a plus, of course. I normally wear a size 12, but am currently between sizes (12-14), the 14 L fit great. I am 5'8-5'9 tall without shoes.

Beautiful color and hugs the curves.

It's a stunning dress in an even more stunning color! I absolutely love it. Classy and fun at the same time! It had a tiny snag when it arrived, but it's unnoticeable. It hugs my curves perfectly. I am a curvy size 12 normally, but this 14 for perfectly, with just a little extra room - which helps when sitting down.
