Easy to Wear
Easy to wear. Very bright colors. Maybe a little too bright for my taste, but I enjoyed wearing it. It was a conservative length with substantial sleeves. I wore it a few times and used fashion tape at the neckline for day wear.

Might Rent Again
This dress felt a little young (I'm 32) so I had a hard time figuring out where to wear this aside from a restaurant at the beach. Maybe not the most flattering length on me, but the the top was cute enough that it offset that. I might rent it again for a vacation, but probably not to wear at home in my day-to-day life.

Overwhelming Pattern
This was a super high quality, well tailored dress but it just didn't work at all for my shape. There was a lot of material and the pattern was too busy-- making me look a lot larger than I am. It was a dress that "wore me" rather than the opposite. I think this is simply one of those styles that would be better and look more proportional if you are a smaller size. Sad I couldn't make it work!

Not for Long Torso
I'm 5'6" with a long torso/short legs for my height and this was too short in the torso and pulled at the crotch. Also emphasized my stomach. I liked the material and the neckline/straps would have been very flattering if the bottom fit had been better.
Navy Stripe Crop Jumpsuit
Greylin
Size Worn: MR
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 155lbs
Bust: 34B
Wore for a regular day.
Loose enough to be very comfortable with enough tailoring to show that you have a shape. Had plenty of room in the stomach/hip area, though the neckline was verging on too low after wearing for a few hours. It seemed like it might have stretched out a little bit as I wore it (or maybe I just noticed the low neckline and long length more often after noticing it). I'm 5'5.5 and this barely brushed the floor in flats.

Wore for a regular day
I think the fit of this looked pretty close to the model photos. I wore for a casual day around Miami and felt comfortable and modest, though my boyfriend thought it made me look bigger than I am so minus a star for that, unfortunately.
