This is beyond huge
Size down, this was brand new with tags and was like a large/ex large. I am not even sure the extra small would work. It was super cute!

This runs big, especially at the top
It’s also has stretch in the material so hard to keep from getting larger as the day goes on.

Well made and gorgeous color!
I was super excited for this piece since there were so many positive reviews, however, I found it slightly disappointing. It was well made and lined, which is a plus, and the cut and attention to detail was superb. I prefer my work clothes to be less fitted since I am in a more conservative environment, I would say the size 4 in this cut was a bit roomy in the waist and hips, therefore making the dress more sack-like and less stylish. The tie around the neck allows for strategic hiding of the low cut neckline so no worries in flashing your intimates at work. I wore it with navy blue tights and navy heels for a nice contrast of colors.

Well Constructed Dress
The dress was well constructed with a summer vibe, that required some winter touches to wear in Jan. I wore a long sleeve navy fitted tee shirt under it, which made me sort of feel like I was a Catholic school girl in her elementary uniform. It looks way cuter sleeveless, and I didn't have a navy blue cardigan to pull that style off in winter. The bottom of the dress has a lot of material so I guess you can say this style runs a bit large. However, in my conservative work environment, I prefer my clothing to be less fitted and loose. It does wrinkle easily, but not so bad that you look like you don't own an iron.

Odd Fit
As most of the reviews said, this dress runs very large. I would say the only thing fitted was the width of the shoulders. The arms were so long, the bottom was like a tent and the V neck in the front required a tank underneath to keep it work appropriate. Comfy to wear to work since there was so much room!

Different and Chic
I was excited to get this piece, as I have been stalking capes this season, but wasn't sure if I should invest. I was surprised at the material, it was almost like fleece, and being so, with so many wears it was pilled. I wore it with a cream Kate Spade Blouse, slim black pants and heels to work, and all the ladies wanted to know the designer and all the men wanted to know if I was flying somewhere. I liked it so much, I wore it again over the weekend with black leather leggins, high boots and a long sleeve black tee shirt. You definitely have to plan winter weather around it as you are warm to an extent, but are no way warm enough in the arm situation. I would rent this again!

Golden Girls Anyone?
I was excited to try this trend. It was true to Tina Turk sizing, not a lot of give or flex in the fit. I wore this with silk black joggers and black stacked boots. The jacket is a bit loud for my taste, the flowers were gold thread and the zipper was a bright gold shinny thing. I felt like Blanch from the Golden Girls in my 1990 coat. I could not wait to get home and take this thing off my body. Cute for Glen Stefani, not for me. Glad i tried the trend and did not buy the trend.

Blah
Clearly the dress I received had been dry cleaned one too many times, as the fabric was thin and see-through. Thank goodness it is winter here as I was able to wear heavy tights and didnt have to worry about being outside without a coat with sun shinning through the dress. The dress is definitely larger and the drawl string at the waist doesn't do much to pull the dress in to create a shape. The back is wide open so in order to make it work appropriate I had to wear a matching tank top under it. I missed the wide open back on the pictures. I looked this dress up online and it retails for $398.00, it is not worth that at all. And in the work office compliments club, it received zero.
