Runs small
Could only button the top two buttons. 😔 I’m generally an XS, but this was too small so unable to wear. Looked like it’d give a beautiful hourglass shape, though!

Nice but wouldn’t buy
Fit great, was comfortable, and no complaints. It’s lined and a bit too hot for extended wear in the heat, but I got over it. I felt it made me look a bit more “mature” than I tend to wear and there were definitely strands of shimmer in the dress. Again, liked it; just wouldn’t buy it.

Couldn’t wear. Not much of a chest and these buttons looked like they were about to pop off. Beautiful color, though!!

Stunning dress that almost looks like a jumper
SO. MANY. COMPLIMENTS!!! I’m a walking RTR advertisement at work; I enjoy all the feedback and coworkers enjoy providing it. 😆 I had SEVERAL suggest I buy this one. It came NWT, so I have to wait for the price to come down, but I loved wearing it, too! Lightweight, flowy, gorgeous color! The two buckles allow you to adjust the waist a bit to give a more cinched or relaxed look/feel. Wish there was a snap on the bottom, though. One gust of wind and everyone saw everything. Easy modification for the eventual purchase. ☺️

So great
The tie waist allows you to adjust perfectly. Lightweight and great for warm weather. Made sure to steam before wearing, which was needed. The asymmetrical hem added a bit of sexiness while still feeling like I could wear it to work for casual Friday. Waiting for the sale to buy!

Flattering Summer Perfection!
Might be a little risqué for work, but I wore it anyway. Fun, somewhat flirty summery lined dress. Sort of looked like a picnic table but lots of compliments nonetheless. I have a straight-and-narrow body type, so no defined waist, but this dress gave the illusion of one. Very tempted to buy this one!

Coworkers asked why I didn’t buy it then and there
All the compliments I received made me love this even more than I thought I would! Wore flats and it hit at my ankles, so shorty friendly. Outfit gave me a waistline, something I don’t have naturally. Breathable and comfortable. Loved it all around! Will likely buy once it’s on more of a sale.

Cinched waist is doing my straight-and-narrow figure wonders! I loved the way I felt and looked in this. Comfy, great colors, everyone at work AND the party loved it! WILL buy! Win win!

LOVED SO MUCH!
I’m buying this once the price comes down. Early access so I got it NWT and do desperately wish I could afford to keep it. Felt great on; felt great in it! Airy, could wear it to work and also out during the SoCal summer heat! LOVED LOVED LOVED

Bought it!
Came NWT! Fit was spot on and incredibly comfy! A little crunchy-sounding, but obviously didn’t bother me enough to stop me from buying. So many compliments! Chest area looked great and cinched waist didn’t hurt!! I’m straight and narrow, so no defined waist. This dress fooled everyone! 😆

Amazing quality!
Fabric is lined but didn’t feel too hot in warm, humid climates. At 5’4”, I felt the XS was a little big, otherwise I would’ve bought it (and still might)! Romper is perfect; just wish I were a bit taller😆

Too small and didn't fit. Size up 2x
Even unzipped I could barely get this on. Once it was, zipping it was out of the question. Would've needed to size up at least two sizes.

Much too long
I’m short, but even with 4” heels, these just didn’t work. The knees hit at the wrong spot so the seams felt weird when walking, and the pants still dragged on the floor.

Borderline too sexy for work, but tons of compliments! Agree with other comments that steps are a bit more restricted due to length on petites, but not enough to be a nuisance. Very flattering and seriously tempted to buy!

Too Small
I’m a solid size 4 and even these Mediums, high on my waist, looked too small. I was able to close them, but they were not flattering at all.

Pooch
Fit was great, but the design made me look like I had a pooch; it accentuated my mid-section which was unflattering on me. Otherwise, fit well and length was fine.

I’m a solid size 4 in pants and this was no where close to being able to close; not even sure I’d been able to make the Medium work. Tempted to try the Large.

SO comfortable, but size down
Silky soft and great San Diego fall option! I have no waistline and should’ve sized down in this. Plenty of room; light and breezy; LOVE the pattern! Just not the right size/cut for my boxy physique.

I don’t have a natural waistline and have wide shoulders; I have a very boxy body type. I was worried this would accentuate those features, but I felt great in this! Perfect amount of cleavage and great top for San Diego fall!

Like others have said, the neckline is VERY deep. But it didn’t seem to bother me. The photos here are without a bra, which I preferred the look of. Wore it to a casual gathering with a bra and the cups kept peeking out. Perfect for San Diego fall!

Should have sized up
Fabric was great and loved the cross back! I should have sized up. I’m 5’3.75”, 125lbs with a boxy build. Didn’t end up wearing this due to the sizing, but want to rent again, next time a 6!

Not bad at all!
First jumper ever! Ties were easy enough to tie after the bathroom. I NEVER don’t wear bras and actually felt comfortable enough in this without one! The waist synch seemed to sit at a weird place on me, but that could be because I don’t have much of a waist to begin with. Felt comfortable in this and received several compliments!

Not for those with broad shoulders
Tried jumpers for the first time and this was one of the two I got. The shoulders and “wings” made my shoulders look massive. I don’t have much of a waist, either, so made me look like a wide-topped rectangular. Great pattern and very silky-smooth fabric. Felt like I was wearing silk PJs!

Loved it, but apparently wasn’t paying attention when ordering and got an XS, which was too small. I couldn’t zip it up. 🤦♀️ I was out of shipments, otherwise I would’ve exchanged this, in a heartbeat, for the S.
