Perfect!
This dress is classy and flattering. Perfect for work. I wear 8's for BM and the large was a nice fit. Probably could have gone medium but for work I don't want to tight.
Navy Day Sheath
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Fabulous material flexible on size
Only the 10 was available so I rented even though I wore 8 in a similar PR. The 8 is better but the 10 didn't look too big. I normally wear between 6-8. The wrap price did like to slide out of the ring so had to knot it over like a neck tie. Great dress perfect for so many occasions.
Black Printed Short Sleeve Dress
Rabanne
Size Worn: 42
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Button down but not far enough
I ordered the size 6 -10R, and it fit but was roomy. I'm typically between 6&8. Other than the typical issue of bra showing on side view of the button down, the last button was at crotch level. That means full front slit up to crotch for tall girls. I'm surprised this was not mentioned in previous reviews. The fabric is beautiful.

Beautiful dress
Beautiful navy dress perfect for work. I didn't like the sleeves, they are poofier than the pic shows. My husband hated them. Sad because the rest of the dress was so perfect.

Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"

Bust: 36C
Beautiful dress, brighter green than in picture
Great style for work. Runs tts. Wish that it came in better colors. It also has shoulder pads which are annoying especially if you need to throw on a blazer for warmth. Better color and no shoulder pads, this would be the perfect work dress.

Totally glam for tall girls
Flowy and fabulous! I wear between a 6 and 8, this was the 8. Extra room in the waist but not in the armscye.

Couldn't get the tie side to look good
Nice blazer. Love that it tailors down to the wrist. I could not get the tie side to look good though. When tied the pocket etc looked wonky.
Dachsie Blazer

Fits true to size
This fits tts. I wear between 6 and 8 the medium was a great fit. It's a heavy stretchy material. Kinda rubbed inside arms.

Beautiful but cut for a shorter person.
I was impressed by the condition of the embroidery and the gorgeous blue. I wear 6 and 8 in TL and this 8 fit comfortably. However, at 5'11" it was too short in the torso. I think I need to be about 2" shorter for this to look perfect.
Embroidered Daisy Midi Dress
Temperley London
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"

Bust: 36C
Stunning!
I wear 6 and 8' with TL (I'm between a 6/8). I wore the 6 with this dress since it was available. It was a little tight and the pockets bulged a little, I would love to rerent in an 8. The dress is truly stunning. Heavy material.
Josie Leopard Dress

Gorgeous!
Dress runs TTS. I'm between 6&8, the 8 fit beautifully and it is the size I wear for this brand. Straps are adjustable. Gorgeous rich dark teal, wore it to dinner with my honey and taking it on vacation. Perfect for fall.
Embroidered Velvet High Low Dress
Marchesa Notte
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Very pretty
It didn't make the cut but it was really pretty. I ordered the M (I wear between a 6&8). The medium was fitted but not stretched. If I had a larger bust, sizing up would be better.
Wisteria Midi Dress
Nightcap
Size Worn: MR
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Lovely dress
Love the backless style of this dress but I felt like it accentuated my hips so it didn't make the cut. Nice weighty material. I wear between a 6&8, the 6 fit best. The 8 was even bigger across the hips and gaped a little on the neckline.
Open Back Circle Dress
Esteban Cortazar
Size Worn: 38R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Sexy!
Sexy, flattering, gorgeous color! Fuzzy is so easy to wear, I just love it. I'm between 6-8 but order large in this brand and they look wonderful, this dress especially. I'm tall though so it works it's way up to very short when walking. My husband thought it was so sexy, he took the picture for himself when I showed him the dress.
Cutout Shoulder Sheath

Awesome dress
Wore this dress for work. It was comfortable with soft flowing silk. It was incredibly flattering and easy to wear.
Morgan 40s Dress
HVN
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Way more bright silver than picture
This dress has a beautiful fit. The metallic threading is super scratchy on the skin around the seams of shoulders and neckline. It is also not the muted dark grey as the picture shows. The metallic is bright silver. Very stretchy and flattering though. Fits TTS
Metallic Knit Drape Dress
Christian Siriano
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Runs large especially in the bust
I wear between 6 and 8 but the 8 was huge. A 4-6 would be better in the skirt but no chance for the top. Looked frumpy since I couldn't fill out the bust. The color in daylight is really beautiful.
Parabola Dress
Rochas
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Pretty in concept
I normally like Parker but this isn't one of the better ones. The fabric and print are lovely. I could not keep the snap at the bust from showing (I really don't like snaps). The thick elastic at the waist was a little weird too.
Blue Brynlee Dress
Parker

Couldn't make it work
Nice soft material but dress was not flattering. I ordered the 6 but I don't think the 8 would have helped. I usually wear between a 6 and 8.
Mio Dress
Zero + Maria Cornejo
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
No photo because it is fully see through
The style is gorgeous! My husband said it looked stunning but wasn't leaving the house. It is completely see through, all details. Wish they would make this dress in a less shear silk.
Black Halter Wrap Dress

Couldn't stop the peep show
This dress was beautiful! But could not stop it from gaping at the bust. The tie front didn't help either. Sadly, had to send back after one dinner.
Flux Midi Dress

Perfect Red
This dress was stunning. It smoothed the curve for a flawless look. I wear between a 6 and 8, with a smaller chest, the medium was perfect.
Dark Crimson One Shoulder Sheath
Hervé Léger
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8

Great size, Leather bow was flabby.
When new this was probably a great bag. Sadly the leather was a little too worn. The bow sagged from wear or shipping or both. That made the entire bag looked more aged than it really was. Sad, it could have been perfect.

I love this dress!!
Endless compliments in this gorgeous dress. I wear between a 6&8, the medium was perfect. If the skirt area was lined, I would own this dress. But I hate having to fuss with shape wear ect, and panty lines are never classy. It was perfect for a morning upscale derby style car event and perfect for a wine dinner. This dress would look fabulous almost anywhere.
Kalila Dress

Beautiful dress, short in the torso.
I wear between 6 &8, the Medium is a great fit but the waist hit at the bottom of my rib cage. So if you are shorter than 5'10", it is probably a perfect dress. No lining on the skirt so it is underwear sensitive.

Feminine and perfect
Loved the silky flow of the dress. I wear between 6 and 8, the 6 was perfect. It did make me self conscious about my elbows, something I never thought much about before. Will rent again. Hard to get the wrinkles out but they don't show with the print and flow of the fabric.

Amazing dress, bad hem job.
This dress was so flattering, I didn't want to take it off. My husband loved me in it so much he offered to buy it for me. Sadly the hem had been redone and badly so it bubbled around the bottom of the dress. True to size, I wear between 6 and 8. The 8 fit with a classy comfortable fit.

Gorgeous dress. Very flattering. True to size. Didn't wear because the sequins weren't quite right for the occasion but would rent again.

Cute a comfortable for summer
I wear between 6&8. It fit exactly that, I wore the 8 and it had an easy relaxed fit. It did need a little fashion tape to prevent gaping on one side of the bust. My husband loved it so much he asked me not to send it back. I'm 5'11, the waist hit at the bottom of my rib cage but with the A-line skirt it still looked fantastic.

Gorgeous dress, not for work
I LOVE Shoshana!! I swear these dresses make me look thinner. I thought I could defy the reviews about the keyhole since I have a small chest. I was wrong. Had to put a cami under but that wrecked the perfect flow of the dress. Beautiful dress, my husband loved it, just not for work.

Not what I hoped for
This dress has a clingy cheap feeling polyester unlike the other PG similar design in silk. It was only lined on the top. Fit was just weird. Pretty print though if you can make it work.

Perfect!
I've never received so many compliments on a work dress. Perfect for a fairly conservative work environment.

Beautiful!
This was one of my husband's favorites and he doesn't like me in long dresses usually. It is beautiful and looked great with most of the shoes in my closet. You'll need a strapless, nubra, nippies or no bra. At 5'11" the longest hem hit at my ankle bone.
Belladonna Dress
Cinq à Sept
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 11"

Bust: 34C
Beautiful and versatile
I loved this dress. The front wraps so no need to worry about the front opening. I'm a 34c and had to be sure I was sitting up straight to prevent the front from gaping a bit. It was perfect for a dinner date and lunch cocktails at the yacht club.

Perfect for a car event
This dress was fun and looked great all night. You do not need to have a large chest. I'm a small 34c and with a nubra, it looked filled in appropriately.

Perfect, sexy cutouts. Sadly, overworn material.
I'm sure this dress was a stunner in its day. The design is spectacular! The pink material is a little overworn. And paint on the zipper is worn away.

Comfortable and forgiving
I wore the large since it was bodycon style and I wanted it for work. It was beautiful and comfortable.

Runs large!
I wear between a 6 and 8. The 8 was gigantic, the 4 fit beautifully. My husband didn't like the look of it mostly because of the shoulder pads being so substantial. The fabric was heavy and itchy, even the lining was a bit itchy. (I am more sensitive than most but it went back) I thought the linen blend with the wool would have helped lighten it up but it didn't.

This dress was so beautiful! I send it back without wearing since my husband said I needed to be 10 years older to wear it. Fit is true to size and very flattering.

Very pretty dress. Like a previous review, it rolled at the top like an age issue but it isn't that old so not sure of the problem.
