Perfect for tall women with long torsos
The cut and style look great but it was just too boxy on my petite frame. It looked great on my taller friend with a longer torso though! Also the buttons to close it at the bottom were overly fussy and annoying to manage.

Awkward top for me
I don't usually wear strapless dresses because they look on me but I thought I would give it a try with this dress. Beautiful color, draping, and cut but as per usual, strapless dresses just don't work on my body type!

Supremely unflattering
Stretchy fabric fit too tight in body but then was long in arms; it would have been enormous in a larger size. It just was supremely unflattering on my petite frame with the bold color. Loved the color.

Versatile, great fit, fun
LOVED this dress; the hemline was not too long for a petite frame plus the belt gave a defined waist. A great combination of cool, modern, and sleek. I had intended to wear for a dinner but found myself wanting to just wear it all the time. Looking for it in other colors.

Blue knit squares are transparent
This sweater is completely see-through and requires a camisole underneath for everyday wear. The knit on the blue parts is quite wide and so skin shows through. It fit perfectly in body though sleeves were a bit long. Overall a beautiful piece but just not my style and too fussy for what I wanted.

Great bright color for holiday party
Fits slightly large in the middle but adding a belt helps; great bright color for a holiday party. Easy to wear, stretchy fabric with pleats that hide wrinkles.

Fun shirt for slightly dressing up everyday
It fit fine as in model, but I think personally I would have preferred to go one size down. The body is a super comfortable and soft sweatshirt fabric that is balanced out by the tulle polka dot sleeves. Great for weekend or just everyday.

Perfect blend of everyday with a little something extra
I loved this! It's a thin knit with gold metallic, very slightly transparent under the white/gold sections. It fit perfectly, it looked great with simple jeans. A beautiful mix of colors and the gold gave it a little extra edge. Really well made.

Metallic Stripe Sweater

Super cute "French girl" style blouse
Runs a bit small as I usually wear a 38 or sometimes even 36 and wore a 40 for this one (the 40 fit perfectly); there is elastic at the bottom which gives the lower edge a perfectly tucked in blousey effect, but I am a petite and it might feel overly cropped on someone with a longer torso. Super comfortable. I am really tan now though and the beige color (to me it looked more beige than blush) just didn't work on me.

Sticky zipper was annoying; super soft and stylish for fall outwear or winter indoors
I am a petite but this jacket ended maybe just one inch or so below my waist, rather than at the top of the hip as on the model. The zipper was a bit sticky which made it annoying to wear. It still looked good and was very warm and soft. It wears more like a thick sweater than an outdoor jacket and is perfect for indoors on a NYC winter day or for outdoors in the fall in NYC.

Shearling Scuba Jacket
VINCE.
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 6

Wore to a job interview and made me feel stylish and polished.
On my petite frame, sleeves were a smidgen long but not annoyingly so. Small real (functional) inside pocket; outside pockets are decorative only. Black trim on label gives it a subtle but interesting embellishment. The narrow lapels make it easy to dress up and down; a versatile piece. So tempted to purchase!

Beautiful fit and fabric
But the flounce at the back was slightly too big when I wanted something I could tuck in and wear more in a more versatile way. But a beautiful piece and I would consider renting again for a more formal occasion if I can figure out what to lead with t that doesn't make it too formal....
