Amazing dress.
I was the best dressed at the party. Perfect for a hourglass figure. Many people said I looked like "Jessica Rabbit" - for those who remember! Classic dress, elegant. Bought the dress. I have big boobs and it fit well without being busty

great colors, runs big but not bulky
great casual with jeans and for a football game, do not think would wear for a night out too bulky. Love the sweater and will order a size down to see how that fits.

Very slimming dress
The length works with this dress to make it VERY slimming and forgiving - the pattern hides hips and tummy vey well. I tried shortening the length and that totally changed the look - not slimming!

Cute, but the arms are long
Very cute, but a little boxy. I wanted to wear it on a trip out west, but when I put it on with the pants it did not look that good with my body - look at the photo for the jacket - it sticks out. I really wanted to love it - the print and colors are great.

loved the fit and front
I loved the front and length. The flap on the back carried over to the sides which made the shirt look bulky and awkward. I really wanted to like because the front was so cute, but ultimately could not get past the flap sticking out the sides

very heavy
This is a winter, cold weather skirt. The fabric is very heavy, it is bulky and the front looks awkward once it is all hooked up. Wanted to like, but could not make it work.

I have a large chest, it looked better when I wore a sports bra. It does wrinkle. I had to pack it, and steamed it in the shower before i wore it & the dress was fine. Would rent again for a summer party.

Bland and bulky fit
Wish I had gotten the skirt. I wore this several times with jeans. It is a comfortable bulky winter sweater. It is not a standout. It is a classic that has many uses.

Cannot say enough about this dress. It is comfortable and versatile. I will probably buy this next summer. Does a great job of hiding "bat wings" and is structured so you can wear without a bra and it stays up. Do need to wear heels

The "wrap around" aspect of the dress does not work & the front detailing made the dress look like a rumpled sack on me. Wrap around dresses usually compliment my figure, but this did not work

complements across the board
Easy to wear anywhere/anywhere! Easy to style. Got "where did you get that" from everywhere - the place I eat breakfast every morning, the office, a private dinner! It is that thick scuba type fabric. I never wore long sleeves because the shoulders stick out and hang down enough to give the appearance and coverage of sleeves. It does not give a V shape like the photo but that may be because it felt a little big, however, if it did cut in too much, the under laying shirt would show- the sides are open.

Beautiful Green - perfect for St Patrick's season
Beautiful dress. Perfect for work or out. It is a beautiful green color, great cut and rich fabric. The fit would be great on someone with smaller breasts; the dress was not complementary on me, my boobs made the wast ride up too high. Very classy ans classic cut. Sorry it did not fit right.

Cute Summer Dress
My photos are tight out of the box - no bra, undergarments, or heels. The top was tight on me, as you can see, when I pulled in the breast over hang, it really packed the top. I liked that the top of the dress was fitted. The fabric does not stretch. For me the dress looked better without a bra, but with support for the hips! Was cute with strappy heels and gave me the height slim down. Enjoyed even though I had to be conscious of the top overhang all the time.

Nice Winter Dress
My photos out of the box - no bra, undergarments, or heels. I could not have worn a bra with this dress because the top was too snug - with that said, I have a big chest and a lot of clothes look better without the bra. I could not wear the dress to work because of the way the top was cut - not professional enough. I was disappointed because otherwise the dress would have been a great work dress! I recommend this dress. It is a winter weight and fabric dress. I preferred the belt that matched the dress.

Cute , fun dress
I take my photos of the clothes right our of the box - no undergarments or dressing up of the dress. This dress is cute and fun and flirty. I could appear on a remote hearing the way the top was cut. There is a waist and then the dress flairs. It was big on me. I loved wearing it - it is a fun dress and makes you feel flirty and playful. I did not wear the dress out because the dress was just a little to young and fun for me; that is not a statement of the dress, just on my style.

Easy to wear anywhere
I take my photos right out of the box - no heels, undergarments - to show the raw dress . I enjoyed this dress, easy to wear, can go anywhere. Can wear for remote hearings. The front cut is very complementary. This is the thicker, not scuba, but sturdy fabric that still had some give, I love this fabric. My chest is big, so proportionally the dress looked best without a bra.

Unique dress. Compliments.
The fit is funny. First, the length was not good for me. I recommend shortening the length to just below, or at, the knee. It becomes a totally different dress. It is fitted through to the waist, then "pops" out. It looks like the pockets are bulging because the dress is too tight, but that is the look of the dress. (If you stand & model, posing with your hands barely in the pockets). I loved the dress & wore several times.

The fit is big and dress is long. I had to wear heels everytime I wore it. Very comfortable. When the size choice is s, m, l I go up; should have stayed with a medium. Nice "flowly" summer dress. Wore it several times.

People did a double take - looked great & not my usual style
Be careful, the slit is high & opens easily; if you walk slow it is ok, but if you take long strides beware. The fit is a little funny but it works. The sleeves look much better on than when on the hanger - they do not poof up as much as you think. I really liked this dress. Definitely something I would have not tried but for rtr; I am glad I did!

Unique dress.
This is a very heavy dress & awkward to get into. You will mess up your hair getting into the dress. I had to tighten the neck to keep it as a choker, otherwise the weight of the dress pulled it down. This probably will not bother others. My shoulders looked good, but the side view emphasized the heavy upper arms. I liked the dress & wore several times.

Not worn yet, plan to wear when have a day in the office with no meetings
Scuba like describes the material perfectly. Have not worn yet, but wonder if it is going to be hot because the material does not breathe. I like the dress. I will probably wear without a bra - the picture is with a bra & looks top heavy. Must wear with undergarments to smooth the hips.

The photos are embellished; only a bra. Undergarments will definitely smooth out the look. Comfortable. Had to pull down a little so waist did not hit right under the bra. Like the loose skirt, easy to walk in .

This dress can go anywhere. I dressed it up and wore to a party.
Took a front & side photos without any embellishments. Very comfortable. Very pretty. Great colors. The sleeves helped hide my upper arms. Has straps on the shoulders to hook you bra in- I needed these. You can wear a regular bra with the "v" back. Top front snap had a little gap when worn with a bra - one safety pin fixed that. It is a cotton dress, but holds it's shape & is a solidly made dress. Could easily wear casual or to party.

I had a trial & felt very empowered in this dress as if I had put on my armor.
The fabric is heavy so the top is very big. I felt very "protected" in the dress; the top almost felt like armor because it is big & heavy. Not a lot of movement with the top. I enjoyed this dress. It is not very slimming, but it definitely does not add weight. The color is stunning.

This is large and very boxy. I am a solid 10 and I was swimming in this. The side view is less flattering. It did not look good on me. I did wear it a couple of times- the color was very complimentary.
