Beautiful but too large at top
Loved the fabric and pockets but could not wear due to top being too loose/large.

Beautiful look, but fabric is not breathable
Received many compliments and love the pockets, but after a brief walk, sweat was still dripping down my back despite being in an air conditioned room for 20 minutes. If you’re not planning to be active or walking briskly in cold weather then entering a heated room, then definitely recommend.

Flowy and versatile
Work this to brother’s wedding rehearsal dinner. Very comfortable and loved the pockets but needed clothing tape to keep the front from showing too much when bending over.

Beautiful dress, but zipper is difficult to zip
Wore this to my brother’s summer beach wedding and received so many compliments. Loved the pockets, the material and color. Knocked off a point because it took two other people to help me zip the dress up. It’s hard to zip the zipper even on the hanger.

Beautiful dress, needs fabric tape
Beautiful print, fits nicely except for how it gaps open between buttons. I used fabric tape, but it would not have been wearable without it.

Warm and versatile overcoat
Warm and sturdy overcoat - can see how it reminds others of a bathrobe, but the belt provides some shape. Runs large, which works well if you're wearing other warm clothes.

Did not wear
The fit was too small around the waist and too large in the bust for me, so I did not wear it.

Usual Size: 10

Flirty and floral spring/autumn dress
Fit true to size, but the material frays easily (the neckline was frayed). Comfortable for everyday wear, but dressy enough for date night. Could have done without the poofy shoulder detail.

Beautiful spring dress with sparkle
Flowy and floral, would have been perfect for less active event. Wore to a backyard picnic running after a toddler, and the buttons kept unbuttoning (button holes were too big for the buttons).

Sleek, comfortable and professional – neckline adds structure to an all-black form-fitting one piece. Appreciated the pockets.

Elegant long dress with give, but tough to zip!
I regularly wear a size 4, but wore my backup size 6 because I couldn't zip up the 4. I think the 4 would have fit me better around the bust once the zipper was zipped, but the delicate size of the zipper fob just made it impossible. Wearing the size 6, I had to wear a padded strapless bra just to make sure it didn't slip :) That said, got plenty of compliments and would order again.

Comfortable fabric but frumpy
I didn't wear the dress – the small was perfect size for my bust, but the medium was best for the rest of me! I might have been able to wear the medium with a different bra, but without it, the cut/fit just looked frumpy on me. Huge plus for the pockets, though.

I didn't end up wearing either the 4 or 6 because the dress was too tight and less comfortable than the other dress I rented.

Had to pin the shoulders to fit
Beautiful dress, but I ordered as a backup and didn't end up wearing. Like others mentioned, I had to pin the shoulders so the neckline wouldn't be too low.

Not worn
I ordered this as a second option style for a formal event – I would have ordered the 6R given other reviews but only the 4R was available on the date I needed. I couldn't zip up the dress past my butt. The dress itself was simply elegant, with nice detailing in the back.

Lots of unsolicited compliments from strangers
Worn to a red carpet event. Ordered the 6R as backup and wore the 4R - definitely needed another person to zip up the back, but the 4R was a perfect fit. The 6R was a little more comfortable, but the bust was too loose for my liking for a strapless. Pockets are always a plus.
