Comfortable BUT buttons were difficult for bathroom stops
The buttons on the front leave a bit of a gap between the two sides, so my bra was visible without an undershirt. I have larger arms and this fit them comfortably. Didn't wear a full 2 hours because the buttons all had to be undone to use the ladies room and that was just too time consuming.

Bust: 36D
RTR tag ON outside zipper and foul smell
Rented this for everyday. The particular one I got I used once because the odor of chemicals was overwhelming and the RTR barcode tag was on the outside of the purse, visible. I liked the size and that it has a back pocket to slide things into, but this particular one was not the best.

Not tummy flattering
If you have any stomach pudge the shorts will ride up. There's not a long inseam so driving in the shorts was uncomfortable. However- walking around in them they were comfortable and soft in humid weather. Loved the pockets- only wore once because they were not flattering or comfortable for sitting.

Comfortable and colorful!
Wore this for GOT watch party ( fire and ice). So comfortable. Most of the time arms are too tight to fit well, the arms were comfortable and waist was also roomy. If it weren't so expensive, I would keep!
Millais Twist Maxi
Temperley London
Size Worn: 14R
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"

Forgiving arms and waist- bought it!
Dress material is soft and comfortable for all day, hits at knee (5'7) so work appropriate- love the feminine tie- I have thicker arms so it was nice that they fit!! Doesn't wrinkle- Great dress for travel!
Black Tie Neck Shirtdress
ELOQUII
Size Worn: 14W
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 195lbs
Bust: 36D
Not a shift like in the picture, detail is beautiful!
Large is probably a 10, so it was right and short. It had some give and was worn, but was very short when I sat down. Not ideal for outing where you sit, or driving. I'm larger and should have worn an xxl to get the same look as in the picture ( I don't think they carry it in xxl). Detailing is beautiful and the back adds some fun and formality to the dress.
Josefina Embroidered Dress
Greylin

Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"

Bust: 36D
Not a dress if you're bigger than a 10!!!
Loved the sleeves and shoulders. Very soft and comfortable top. Model is wearing as a dress, anyone with a booty will have to wear it as a tunic ( unless possible cheek exposure is what you're after!)
Catriona Turtleneck Dress
Joie

Doesn't give in the bust
Zips up the back, runs to size or small- not able to wear as the bust isn't forgiving
Lace Pleated Dress

Beautiful & modest but itchy
Wore this to a JLo concert in Vegas. Did not wear bra ( thick and tight enough to not show or move). Hit below the knee, so when you sit it's not short! Very itchy on the arms- couldn't wait to get back to the room and take it off!

Small bag- big space!
It's a tad more brown than the picture shows- has perfect pockets. A front pocket for easy access to phone- square top zipper to hold in LOTS of stuff. A few small pockets that hold other needed items. Considering purchasing, just worried about the straps fraying in the long term. Smaller than I thought, not a bucket tote at all!!
Cardamom Parker Tote
Tory Burch Accessories
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"

Love the top handle!
Holds small planner or mini tablet, cell phone and a few other small items. Doesn't close easily ( takes more than 1 hand). Beautiful and clean lines- great quality. Good for night out ( light) not too useful for work or day to night.
Royal Navy T Satchel
Tory Burch Accessories
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 195lbs
Comfortable for thick arms- just too short!
I'm a 14 and usually wear sleeveless so my arms arn't restricted. This fit comfortably and had give in the arms, chest and midsection. However- it was TOO short! I worse shirts under it and they showed. Additionally- it's even shorter in the back for women with even a slight butt. Cannot be worn alone without having worry, needs something under it- plan accordingly. Sleeves were belled at the end and beautiful- neckline laid perfectly. Just wish it were a bit longer!
Brodie Tunic Dress
Tory Burch
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"

Wonderful for spring! Soft-but not for busty ladies
Loved the color and length is long enough for work. The bust however has a button that if placed an inch lower wouldn't have exposed my bra. Had to wear an undershirt so my bra wasn't exposed at the office.
Navy Winston Dress
Tory Burch
Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 7"

Very low cut, but soft
Very low cut, had to wear a bralett under the dress. Also very long. Ordered for everyday, maybe to wear as a casual Friday at work but would have to wear heels so it wouldn't drag on ground. Too nice to be casual and too sexy to be professional. Might be good for a girls night out?
Printed Fern Maxi Party Dress
Free People
Size Worn: 12R
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 195lbs
Beautiful in person- just small
Runs very small for a 12. If you have thick thighs- you're not getting it over to even try on! Beautiful gown, shame it ran so small!
Only Rose Gown
Marchesa Notte
Size Worn: 12R
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 195lbs
Comfort- but unforgiving
Runs a little large, thick enough to not need to wear a bra. I wore a strapless and it didn't show. Very comfortable but unforgiving around muffin top area. Received many compliments, the dress looks great in person but again- not flattering on my pudge.
