Size up! Couldn’t zip.
Great potential but my larger size was still too small to zip.

Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 1"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36D
Oversized with cute details
The side slits, the turtle/cowl neck and center seam kept this from feeling sloppy. Paired with tights or skinny jeans for a relaxed look.

Sleeves are definitely exaggerated but cute.
Fun top to elevate an everyday look. Proportions were good for my frame.

Felt cute. Bought it.
Loved the way this too made me feel! A little long in the arms (aren’t they all on my 5’1” frame) but a cuff looks ok. Thicker fabrics was flattering.

The proportions were all wrong for me.
Tight in the chest and stomach. Long in the arms. Fabric was a bit scratchy/uncomfortable too so would have needed a layer under. Print was interesting and fun but I didn’t wear.

Definitely size way up
Great dress but sizing is way off. I ordered my larger size 10 and couldn’t button it at all. I still wanted to take advantage of the rental so I put an oversized sweater on and tucked it under the belt. Still ended up being cute.

Red Floral Printed Shirtdress

Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 1"

Flattering and fun
The overall fabric was heavier but the open eyelet kept me cool in the unpredictable Texas weather. The peplum hit just right to be flattering on a shorter torso.

Tons of compliments
Loved the color and fit. Flattering all around. Got compliments every time I wore it. I did wear a bralette under and used a small safety pin to keep it closed.

Great fit, very comfortable
It was a great length for my 5’1” height. The elastic in the middle was flattering without being uncomfortable. I threw on a denim jacket with tennis shoes for the day then switched to booties for a dressier party after work.
