Cute print
The pattern is really cute and material feels nice (although it's definitely synthetic and pretty hot to wear). I'm typically a 12-14 in street clothes and this zipped up perfectly, but the bust area gaped a bit and the straps are a little long and floppy. Ties are a nice detail, but I would not rent again. The whole look just falls a little flat for me.

Cute but for the short waisted
The pattern and feel of the material of this romper are delightful. The fit is definitely more petite; I think it is intended for shorter folks, or at least folks with very short torsos. It's also pretty low cut. I wore this to brunch and for a sedate bike ride afterwards and could not wait to change out of it - I really felt like both my butt and bust were hanging out!

Beautiful embroidery!
I loved this dress! The embroidery is gorgeous and the little balls are so cute. I wore this out to dinner and to brunch. I also really liked that it was fully lined. This dress mimics an empire waistline, given the way the embroidery ends under the bust.

Just awful
You need to be over 5'10 and prepared to wear heels with this. The bust area is voluminous while the midsection and hips felt very tight. The straps are incredibly long. I think this could work if you have a body that is straight and narrow and you're at least 6 feet tall.

Eh - proportions are awful
The print and colors of this dress are really lovely. The proportions of the bodice are wild, and not in a good way. There is so much floppy fabric, and the straps are not adjustable. I couldn't wear this out of the house for fear of flashing everyone. I imagine if you pin the straps and use some fashion tape at the front, you'd be okay, but I was anxious about doing so much to a dress I did own.

Great color combo!
Firstly, these are some serious puff sleeves! I rented this as a possible for a party, but went with something else. The 12R was tight in the bust for me but the fit was otherwise cute and comfortable. I ended up wearing this out to dinner. The orange and blue color combo is delightful. I wish the brand went up a few more sizes.

Pictures don't do it justice! This dress is an absolute delight.
I got loads of compliments and was comfortable all night long. I wore the 16W and it was too big, but I didn't have time to switch it out for a smaller size. The dress is charming enough that a big of extra fabric was no big deal.
