Fun outfit
This was nice to wear. The pant leg is cropped - it hit above my ankle. I found it easy to zip on and off myself. It wasn’t comfortable for sitting though, but it was fine when standing and walking around.

Great sparkles, runs small
Fun dress for a holiday party. I ordered a size 0 and 2, and wore the 2. It is a navy blue. I really liked the sleeves and sparkles. Heads up: the sparkles do catch threads, so be careful if you wear a jacket with it. Otherwise, it was fun and easy to move in.

Great for photos, dancing, and chasing kids
I wore this for a wedding and really liked it. The colors worked very well in photos, and I felt comfortable on the dance floor and chasing small children. The neck line is unique; I had no problem wearing a normal strapless bra

Flattering fit with fun sleeves
I liked the fit of this dress. It is fitted without being tight - which is great since I am post partum. The sleeves were fun and fine for dinner, though I did have to be aware of them around food and drink.

Fun dress, flowy fit
I found this dress lovely and different than my usually. I didn't end up wearing it to the wedding because my 4yo wouldn't stop messing with the ruffle. So if you don't have a small child - great outfit!

Strange fit - looked like a carpet and sleeves were constraining
Didn't wear this dress. The fabric looked like I was wearing a very nice rug. The sleeves were oddly cut - I couldn't lift my arms.

Beautiful detail, flattering, heavy
This is a very pretty dress. The floral detail was nice, and the underlayer match my skin tone which is very pale. I ended up not wearing the dress because it was heavy and long and I wanted to move easily. For an event where I plan to sit more or Stanmoore I would definitely read this again

Fun color, tight in sleeves, highlights stomach
I like the color and the material. The sleeves were tight - I couldn't lift my arms all the way. I also found the seams drew undesired attention to my post partum stomach. I didn't wear this one

Fun, flowy, comfortable dress
This is a fun dress. The material is comfortable and the sleeves and skirt and fun. The center seam makes it flattering. I ended up not wearing because the torso was a little long on me.

Ok dress
The dress is fine. The ham is slightly longer on either side because the pockets which is a bit odd. I'm in my 30s and this felt like something I'd wear my early 20s, so I didn't wear it

Comfortable, flattering, stylish pants
These were great - you can tell the quality in them. They were comfortable but not tight. The material was not see through, and the color is great for spring. These worked for me, but the rear could be unflattering tight. If you need space in the rear, order up a size.

Lovely but tight
The fit is very tight. It bunched up at the hips and stomach as a result, so I did not wear it.

Comfortable dress, wide top
I wore this dress for work. It was comfortable, but I safety pinned the top as the gap was a bit too wide for my work place.

Pockets, glitter, tight belt
I couldn't zip this dress closed. It's a nice shape and has pockets. The fabric is shiny without sequins, but is a bit scratchy. My biggest problem was the mid- belt was so tight that I couldn't zip the dress. Size up

Lovely dress, just not for petite frames.
This is a beautiful dress - the material is thick and lays flat, it's got structure and it has pockets! However, it felt like I was drowning in it. It's a full skirt with tulle, so it was too much skirt for me.

Pretty, for my phone
This was a fun purse. It was large enough for my phone, lipstick, keys, and credit card. The sparkles do fall off a little

Casual, fun dress.
I wore this dress for work. It's baggy, and the belt in the picture did not arrive, so I had to add my own. I also wore it with dark tights. It was too short for me to feel comfortable in the office without them.

Comfortable, elegant dress
I found this dress forgiving and flattering. I am post partum, so it is not tight in the stomach but still has shape. The pattern and color were unique, and I liked the neckline

Tupper Midi Dress

Size Worn: 2R
Usual Size: 2

Comfortable, stylish, work appropriate
This is a great dress. The details are nice but the cut is conservative enough for work. It is navy and black, so it's easy to pair with accessories. The material is heavy, so it's beat for cool weather. My only complaint is no pockets!

The Heist Dress

Size Worn: 2
Usual Size: 2

Comfortable pants
The 4 was large on me but I was still able to wear them. I don't think this is because it runs large but because I wasn't sure my size. Very comfortable pants with pockets. I also liked the length. Pants have a navy and brown check, so they'll go with a variety of tops.

Beautiful but better for wider shoulders
This is a pretty dress. Easy to get on, comfortable. The thick material is flattering for my post partum shape. I ended up not choosing this dress for my occasion because I have narrow shoulders. The width of the neck kept sliding off. If you don't have this issue, you will love this dress!

Beautiful but revealing slit
It's a pretty material, flexible in the waist, and comfortable. However, the slit goes up high and is right in the center. When I walked or sat, I was uncomfortable with how much skin it showed (went to more than mid thigh). I actually took an office clip and clipped the inside portion to a slip underneath to keep it from going too high. I couldn't figure out how to sit comfortably

Too tight to wear
I am post partum, so I'm not sure what size I wear. I had the 4, and it was so tight I could barely zip. It's a lovely dress if you get the right size.

It was just okay
This jacket is a lot more silver than I expected. It's well made but I found it a bit large in the bottom portion, so it added weight to my mid section. It was fine, but nothing special.

Stand out dress for a winter wedding.
This was definitely a unique dress and drew a lot of compliments. It is a neoprene material, so it is very thick. While comfortable, don't wear for an event where you'll get hot. The pattern is unique but not obnoxious. I also found the dress very short. I wore it with black tights and heels.

The dress stood out in the crowd because of the color contrast. The waist was flattering, and there is a long slit up the front. It was very comfortable.

Bright, colorful dress
The dress worked well for an outdoor daytime occasion. However, I found it very short, and I'm only 5'4". I would not feel comfortable wearing it for an evening soiree.

Bump friendly dress for day time occasion.
I rented this for a day time affair, and I am 6 months pregnant. I went with the 2 since most reviews said it runs large, and I'm glad I did. There was plenty of room for me and my bump. It was comfortable for moving around and works for any season. The color is not the most flattering on me - I'm pale and the off-white top was too close to my skin tone. But, there are limited options for bump friendly, and this worked well for the occasion.

Bump friendly dress for a formal affair.
I'm 6 months pregnant and usually wear a 0 or 2, so I rented the 2 and 4. The 2 was a bit too tight (plus, the shoulder piece wasn't sewn on), and the 4 was more comfortable. The fabric has nice stretch, so it will accommodate a bump. It's tighter on the hips, too, so I could show off my belly. It got a little itchy towards the end of the night, but overall it worked really well.

Bump friendly; comfortable and stylish.
It fit well, the style was flexible for my changing style, and my husband thought I looked very stylish. I paired with a large necklace similar to the one pictured, and that did the trick. I wore this 4 months pregnant, but there's plenty of room.

Flattering cut, great material
The cut at the waist and pleats are extremely flattering - gave me a nice curvy shape. The material was really nice, and the colors bright. It's a classic dress which would work for many occasions.

Nice color
I really liked the color of this dress - it is coral. The top wasn't flattering on me, though. I'm petite, and the cut of the top elongated my torso. Also, the sequined belt was way too big for the dress.

Beautiful dress; tight at the waist
The dress has gorgeous material, and the cut of the folds is very flattering. I ordered a size 2 but normally wear a size 0. The waist band had no stretch and was uncomfortably tight. I recommend the dress, but I suggest going up a size.

Nice dress, but not flattering on small chest
It's a nice dress and comfortable, but the top is not flattering for a small chest. The waist and top run larger, so it doesn't offer enough shape.

Great experience - I only got one dress since the other sizes weren't available, and it worked great. I got a number of compliments.
This dress was great, the fit is loose, so I'm glad I got a smaller size. I got lots of compliments. It's not a heavy material, so it worked great for an outdoor rehearsal dinner. The zipper was a little difficult, but otherwise it was fine.
