Grand design; worn out dress
The design is lovely. It felt like a high fashion piece- flattering, pleasantly complicated, heavy material that draped beautifully. Unfortunately it is white and probably very popular. It looked dingy and old- too old to wear.

Stood out!
This dress is so fun and pretty! All night, I had compliment after compliment. It was also so fun to dance in. On the downside- there's so much fluff in the bottom of the dress that sometimes I wasn't sure if it was covering my stuff properly. :) So I just kept smoothing it down. A nice perk- I just wore a regular old flesh colored bra with it- so easy!!

Dramatic and flattering
Really loved this dress. The straps and neckline make it very flattering. The straps were a little long for me- I'm short in my upper body, so I would've needed to pin it in order to wear. It's also very long. I ordered a regular length and 5 inch heels were not high enough to ensure that I never stepped on the dress. All that aside- it is probably my favorite formal gown of all time. The floral pattern is so very pretty- it's navy and gold, which is unexpected. Just a great dress.

Beautiful- ran large on top
The color is great. The stretch of the fabric is awesome- makes for a nice form-fitting silhouette. The top was a little larger than I expected- the straps too long for me- (short torso, short shoulder distance) so the dress was a no.

Very forgiving skirt
Really liked this skirt. I was worried it would be small in the size 4 because it looks tight and tiny. It was actually very forgiving with some stretch but still was not too clingy- no weird panty lines, or belly button indents. :) Really liked it- went with many things in my closet

Surprisingly versatile
Like this jacket a lot. The floral part is cute and goes well with basically anything solid colored. It's perfect for a rental- feels really nice but too trendy to pull the trigger on a purchase. Cons- squeaky from the leather, lots of jingling from the buckles and zippers. Pros- warm, comfy, flattering.

Bulky
Didn't ever wear it out of the house bc the jacket was rather bulky. I wanted it to be a slim fit, but it has more lining- I'm sure it would be warmer, but that's not what I was looking for.

Comfortable, chic
Stretchy fit- which made it really comfortable but the fabric was also thick- so very flattering.
