Grown woman in a little shirt!
This runs small and is especially ill-fitted for a bustier woman. Beautifully made and loved the cut except the waste sat at an empire level. Add the shorter sleeves and I looked like was wearing my daughter's shirt. I would have to go up a size or two to make this work.

Very flattering!
I generally hate the bell sleeves. On this blouse, it was worth overcoming my usual aversion. The colors are beautiful and the fit makes for a very flattering look with jeans or a business casual workplace. It can easily transition from day to night. Unlike others, it didn't seem especially low cut to me. Very nice!

So comfortable
Someone could live in this blouse. It is so comfortable! Be warned - it is eyelet so has a little bit of peek-through. Be okay with that or add a blue tank under it like I did. A lovely piece.

Better the first time around
I rented these twice. The first time, they were fresh and new and pressed. The second time they had odd puckering along the seams on the leg and butt. Additionally, the stripes lined up in a way that made a giant white arrow on my crotch. Such a letdown after having loved them so much

Too tight for broad and busty
I rented this to wear to work with a pair of black slacks. It was so tight through the shoulders and bust that I could barely pull it over my head. It's pretty and seems to be well-made but, with the stripes and the tightness, it wasn't a flattering fit for me.
Oversize Striped Blouse

Sooo long
I'm 5'5" with some curves that will help shorten items that are too long. Didn't help here. Even with a 3-inch heel, this was virtually unwearable. I like a gracious fit and a little extra length on a maxi skirt as much as anyone but this was unmanageable. Wore for about ten minutes and then took it off for my own safety. If you're tall, I bet this dress would be stunning!

Absolutely gorgeous.
The black metal with the shiny stones was the perfect combination of feminine and punk. I almost didn't return them. Love.

Loved this dress. Very feminine.
I usually wear a 6 or 8. In this case, the size 8 worked; the smaller size wouldn't have fit in the bust or through the hips. The little bit of extra room was critical so that I could sit and move comfortably. The elastic around the bust had a tendency to flip out and be visible to others and double-sided fashion tape didn't solve it. In a dark space, it would be a non-issue as the elastic is black. At an outdoor ceremony in the afternoon, it was more apparent. Overall, it's a beautiful dress - very feminine and flattering. I felt like a million bucks.
