STUNNING color and flattering
The size I ordered was too big, so I am going down a size. I can't wait though as it is soo gorgeous in person. The pictures do not do it justice.

Gorgeous, but arms are tight.
I loved everything about this dress, except the arms were tight on me so I could not wear it. I think sometimes designers forget when cutting for plus size Goddesses that we often have larger arms.

I didn't think just tying the in back was flattering, but the tie was long enough to bring around front.

Loved this dress! Flattering
This dress was very flattering on my plus size figure! Accented my waistline and covered my "issues"

You can dress this up or down.
I adore this! You can dress it up for work or wear with jeans. I rarely love a sweater this much. I typically have trouble with things that fit more snugly on the arms not fitting me as my upper arms are on the large side. This fit perfectly and didn't make my arms look like sausages! My only sad point is that even with my Unlimted discount it is still far to expensive. I am not opposed to splurging on an item, but this is still too major of a splurge for something that isn't worn more.

Odd fit for me
Great quality dress, but in order to get it to fit my chest the remainder was just too large.

I wanted it for work.
Gorgeous dress....I really wanted it to fit. It fit everywhere but in the bust. I was a bit surprised as I am a 36DD and an XL usually fits or is close. This was so far from covering even half of my breasts that even with a cami it looked ridiculous. It just wouldn't even cover my nipples. Sad....I really loved everything else about it.

Torn about this dress
I was so torn about this dress. It fit true to size (you could prob size down one due to the stretch in fabric) and was SOOOO soft. However, the cut of the dress...at least on me....could not have been more unflattering. So much so I didn't even take a picture. I don't think sizing down would help as I had a professional seamstress hold the dress (what it might look like one size smaller) and it was the same issue.

Cute with leggings
I planned to wear the XL to work with leggins. I still could have or even left this open, tied in the back and with a shirt underneath.....but it didn't quite work for me.

Runs VERY small
I am normally a 12/14 or XL is regular sizes. I can sometimes wear a OX or 1X in plus, but usually stick to regular sizes. Any other designer XL I have worn has always fit, This XL seemed like a Small to me it was so far from fitting….not even close. I double checked the tag to make sure. I do really like the dress, but their sizing is way off!

Great classic dress
I loved this dress! I normally wear a 14 and the 14 fit everywhere perfectly.....except for the sleeves. I think the designer forgot that curvy girls have curvy arms. I am a RTR Unlimited customer so I didn't have a back up size. However, I would need to size up on this one to make the arms fit. Since the rest of the dress isn't fitted (and it has a belt) I am sure it would have fit.
