Fits like a glove
As most of the other reviews have suggested, this piece runs exceptionally small. It is super tight--which makes for it to be incredibly attractive. It is a piece that is necessary to fit tight, and it does it's job. The cut is incredible. The high neck and razor back strap is beautiful--my favorite part of the jumpsuit--and the small side cut outs are just enough. The down falls are that the material feels a bit like I was wearing a costume for A Clockwork Orange or an old nurses uniform-its thick and has a noticeable weave to it. Along with this, the zipper in the bag is horrible--it pushes out in a very noticeable way. I'm very big on the back of the garment being as exceptional as the front.

Gorgeous sparkle, but a little bit baggy
When you pick this dress up, it glimmers with all hopes of being the showstopper you wish it to be. The designers did a great job to add color to the sequins which help in the way that light reflects from this dress. I loved that the sleeves ere long but the dress was short, and I wanted it to fit in such a sleek way, but it did not. It was relatively loose. That being said, this could simply be because I am exceptionally small, but a 0 should fit an exceptionally small person--at least most European designers are aware of this. Along with this, the back of the dress is exceptionally UNattractive! The zipper is sewn to the outside with a large black strip running down the back--it's a total eyesore.

Gorgeous Detail
When you walk into Target and glance at the jewelry counter, you will see a handful of knock-off necklaces that imitate this style. At first, those necklaces seem just as great--they have the "look," after all. But when I received this necklace I was so enamored with the care that went into designing the piece. It was so beautifully made--from the chain to each rivet and gem. Someone "crafted" this piece, as an artist does a painting, and you can tell. You can can wear this with a dress, or wear it like I typically do, and layer it with a few other jewel encrusted pieces and wear it with a tee or a tank--which makes it versatile and wearable on more than one occasion.

Versatile, fashion-forward, innovative
This bag was amazing, and I know that sounds exaggerative because you look at it and it seems simple--which is part of what makes it so great. the bag IS simple, the color usage is simple, the design seems simple, and the only first-glance hint of it not being simple is the holes in the leather. However, Loeffler Randall made some great unique aspects to the design. The strap is adjustable, which is incredibly convenient, but the way in which the strap adjusts is beautiful--two black metal knobs that punch through two discrete holes. No more bulky metal piece holding together another part of the strap like other bags do for adjustment. Along with this, the strap can come off completely by unhooking it from the clasp--leaving the bag something to carry by hand or on the forearm. The clasps are beautifully made--they feel almost industrial, but just the right amount of such. Along with this is a clever metal and leather tag with the designers name "Loeffler Randall" which hangs from one end of the bag--also removable, and could double as a key chain. I could go on-and-on, but you really have to see for yourself. This bag was great!

beautiful
The material was great, and detail of the print was quite beautiful. It was relatively long which made for different styles of wrapping.

Overall, it was 'alright.' I'd never buy it
The material was pretty beautiful, and the leather was nice. The bag was exceptionally small, however, and the cinching closure was more of a hassle, than anything

You will definitely sparkle when wearing these!
They are relatively large, which makes them pretty heavy, but I knew they'd be heavy when I rented them. They looked more like costume jewelry in person, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

The cut of the dress is beautiful. The flowing bottom is what really sells the dress.
The color is much darker than what is shown in the photograph, and the colors were more like tie dye than what is pictured.

The leather was buttery soft and the color was just bold enough.
The straps are slightly awkward in length--sort of short of shoulder but not right for forearm
