Very cute
Really cute. I sized up because it was all that was available, and I liked the slightly oversized look.

I loved these! But they stretch out too fast
Great cut and fit, but the stretch quickly wore out and now they’re too baggy, even after a wash :(

Strange fit, tight in the arms.
I have a small ribcage and this was tight even for me. Material is kind of weird. It was tight for me in the arms and pits, and the arms were an awkward length

Great fit for petite
This dress fit very well. It’s not really my style, but fits a petite. Length is great, im wearing socks in the photos so you can’t really tell.

Love these had to buy.
Great for my petite frame. Pant length is always a struggle, and these were great. My photos don’t do them any justice.

Very cool, had to buy. Great for petites
Im super into this jacket. It’s very light yet structured for late spring/ early fall. It’s always a challenge for me to find jackets that aren’t to long, and this was a great find. Highly recommended for the short torso’d

Great, ended up purchasing
Very cool casual overalls. I’m an artist, and these have been great for looking the part (heh). I ended up buying a size smaller than I rented, but honestly both sizes worked for me. They’re forgiving. A go to for the summer for me.

Fit like a glove, great for a petite
I looooved this dress. Fit like an absolute glove. The beading was lovely and didn’t feel cheap at all (always my fear with these kinds of dresses). I especially liked how it fit around my hips- I’m a little ‘hip dippy’ in that region, but it gave me this lovely curve. Best part was the lining was so silky. Very comfortable. At the same time is was reasonably hefty and didn’t feel slinky. I need something for an early spring dress, and this felt like it would provide the warmth I’m looking for.

An unexpected win
This dress was a wildcard choice for me. I ended up going with something else, but would definitely consider this for another spring wedding. Was looking for something that would could keep me WARM for an early spring wedding, and the heftiness of the material really felt like it would do the job (with a jacket of course). Much more feminine than my go to, but I liked how the blue complimented my transparent ghostly rice paper skin tone. Not sure how I felt the tie in the back, or how it would work with a wear of a few hours.

Great fit for this petite, quality fabric
Though I didn’t end up wearing this for my event, it fit my hourglass petite frame very well. I was looking for something for an early spring wedding, and this felt like it would provide the warmth. I’m typically between a 0 and 2, and a 32 b/c

Elegant, classy, and fashionable
Another piece I probably wouldn't ever normally consider, but just gave is a go. It's a great conservative dress that still manages to flatter the figure. I found it ran small: normally I wear a 0 and the 2 seemed to suit me. I has an almost 1940s look. It's incredibly well made, beautiful silk with interior lining that gives it a weightiness of a quality garment. It certainly feels like the $500 dress that it is.

Cute cocktail dress for shorties
This was an experiment dress for me, not something I'd normal go for but figured why not. And I fell in love. I found it to be a perfect and flattering fit for someone of my height. I was worried about the length being too short, but it was a totally appropriate length for me, and I even ended up wearing instead of another more colorful dress to a wedding shower. It's a multi-season dress. It has a 1960's flair to it. And despite all the frills, it doesn't feel overly girly. I'm not a big "sleeves" person, I hate feeling restricted around the arms, but found the short sleeves to be comfortable.

Wonderfully retro, delightfully work appropriate, and chicly designed.
I loved this dress so much I had to buy it. On a short person like me, it hits at the perfect length to be a trendy-but-conservative chic piece. I have a short torso, but the cinched waist falls in just the right spot. The only bummer about the dress is how the navy vest area can look ill-fitting and slouchy if I'm not standing completely straight. I think however it would fit perfectly on someone that's slightly taller than I am. I am petite with not much boob area going on, so the boyish cut works for me.
