Not low maintenance wear, but cute
I have a super short body relative to my super long legs so this jumpsuit worked for me, for the most part. However, it still felt like it was 'riding' sometimes and, thankfully, the pockets allowed me to reposition the bottoms without obvious tugging. Another issue - the sash loops are so high up - right under your bust (not as shown in the pic). I ended up not using the sash at all even though the loops were pretty apparent. I just kept my arms close.

Easy to wrinkle/Resembles scrubs
Loved the folor and style in the photo, but upon arrival, the dress was already wrinkled. I tried it on and was immediately reminded of a scrub nurse. The color morphed into that resembling medical scrubs (the dress version) and once that was in my mind, I couldn't shake it. The cut was not as flattering as expected so, combined with the color and the wrinkles, I opted to return it without actually wearing it.

Tight Shoulders and Matronly
I wanted to like this and, on the hanger, it was charming. But the shoulders were tight and the lace outer shell itched a little. I am a mover, so having my arms by my side all day/night is not a doable thing. Plus, it just wasn't that flattering on me.

Tight in Chest...EVEN FOR ME!
Beautiful dress and flattering, but extremely tight in the top. I heeded the advice of others and sized up to a 10; but, even at only a B cup, but I could not zip this up easily after the mid-back. It fit OK in the rest of the body. I could tell it would be beautiful, but I didn't want the pain up top. And, I didn't want to switch for another size up because I thought the rest of the dress would be too large. Odd sizing.

Simple, Sleek Elegance
Rented for vacation and it was perfect for a nicer night out. So flattering and endless compliments. A couple of important points, though. First it is HEAVY - it weighs down the luggage and if you want something light, this is not it. Second, it is for short-waisted people (which made it perfect for me!) I am all leg and a 'box body' (it is so short.) I can see how it might be a little camel-toe inducing with longer-waisted people. Loved it and would consider buying it!!

Wrinkly Bathing Suit Cover Up
It arrived a little wrinkly but it still looked cute so I tried it on. It truly looked like a bathing suit cover up. I might have used it for that; however, it was lined and in the short time I wore it it became more and more wrinkly. I returned it immediately. I didn't see how I could practically use it during the vacation (or really, anywhere). Disappointed.

Cute Sweater - A Little Worn at This Point
Cute sweater looks just like the photo and flattering for my 'short-body-long-leg' frame. I would give it 5 stars but it was worn/pilled - clearly a popular rental! Not embarrassingly worn, but no one would mistake it for new. Would consider purchasing if it goes on clearance, but not for "member pricing."

Super Cute!
Love these pants; well-made, great fit, etc. Look and fit just like the picture. Perfect for the weekend or 'casual' workdays. May buy if they go on the sale site!!

Snugger than Photo
The picture implied the sweater would hang but it was definitely a clinger. I am very short-waisted, especially relative to my height, so the snug fit on this longer sweater was not as flattering as it would be on someone with a longer waist. Also, it was a little itchy, but that wouldn't have stopped me from wearing if it had fit as I wished.

Cute, but Fit Off
Loved the concept, it was comfortable and it may have worked better in a large - unsure. I couldn't lift my arms without the cape bunching and the sweater clinging to my body in a less than flattering way so I returned after trying on.
