Comfortable and well fitting
This dress is very comfortable. The fabric is very thick, feels like a light scuba suit, but it feels great to wear. It is much better looking in person and the photo does not do it justice.

Unnecessarily complicated
These definitely ran small but the buckles and cross over belts around the waist were very annoying and unnecessarily complicated. Didn’t wear!

Beautiful sweater that fits great but is unwearable. The sleeves are like having sandpaper rubbing directly against your skin! Such a shame!

Surprisingly nice fit!
High waisted jean/pants are a must but paired with the right ones I actually really liked the way it fit! Wide waistband is comfortable and allows for movement, as long as pants have nice high waist! (Paired here with DL1961 Hepburn Jeans)

Full zipper down the back!
This jacket does not open in the front, the front buttons are non functioning! It has a full zip opening down the back. A little too tricky for my taste and certainly very difficult to get on by yourself. It’s almost like a puzzle!

Hard to return!
This is an absolutely amazing piece. I wore it at least 5 times and kept it for over a month. It was so tailored and fit beautifully. Wore with high waisted jeans for a few dinners and also with black wide leg trousers for a work meeting. Loved!

Sized for a giant!
For reference I am 5'9", 150 pounds and I am wearing a Medium! They fell off me at the waist and the length could easily accommodate someone 6'5"! I know they are supposed to have a relaxed fit but these are just sized for a giant! Looked ridiculous.

Great jeans!
I have worn these many different times, many different ways. Most of this style are too short for taller girls but these hit at just the right spot, right at the ankle for girls over 5'8". They are high waisted.

Very nice look!
Wore with jeans and tank top to an outdoor party and it was a perfect look! Very put-together but comfortable! Tried a few different ways but looked best with a tank top underneath. I could have used one size smaller but still felt fitted.

This is a beautiful top but if you have a medium to large chest it will be extremely tight and buttons will gap. Definitely better for petite!

Runs small and large!
I had this dress on three different times trying so hard to make it work! I ended up not wearing it because it's just a bit off! The top does lay quite right and the skirt doesn't lay quite right! I would skip it and go with something less fussy!

This is an adorable top! Personally, I would have liked it to about and inch or two longer. I didn't wear it because it was just too short. Otherwise, very cute fit for summer.
