Another great summer dress for the tall ladies
Super cute, extra roomy fit for those hot summer days. Could definitely be dressed up for a summer day wedding.

Very homely
It's nice and long for the tall ladies, but the butterfly sleeves make it look so homely.

Watch out for the wrinkles
This is a cute dress, but it's a disaster to iron. A great rental, but I wouldn't buy it.

Great dress for tall ladies
It fits great, especially if you're tall like me. The only catch -- it runs a bit see-through.

Beyond sheer...
This dress is not work appropriate without opaque undergarments throughout. It's beyond sheer even with not on your body.

Not for broad shoulders...
The shoulders and arms of this dress were super tight and constrictive. I really wanted to like it but I couldn't move.

Gross fabric
This dress doesn't drape well because the fabric is stiff and crinkly, in the worst way. It's very casual. Overall, not up to par for Kate Spade.

Weird cording...
The horizontal cording on this makes it fit oddly and the fabric bunch. I'd suggest ordering up a size, but then it's like a sack.

A great dress for tall ladies, except...
It wrinkles like nobody's business. Pair it with strappy sandals and a black handbag for an easy work outfit. If it didn't wrinkle, I'd definitely buy it.

Talia Dress
Caballero
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 210lbs
Bust: 38C
Really frumpy
It's a weird material that's like a stretchy cardigan but shaped like a blazer. It's really frumpy and the sleeves run super short.

Brushed Double Knit Blazer
NIC + ZOE
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 210lbs
Bust: 38C
Way too big and boxy
I swam in this blazer that was short and boxy. The material is nice, but the cut is super weird unless you're on the shorter wise and more rectangle shaped.

Quinn Wool Blazer
Anine Bing
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 210lbs
Bust: 38C
Runs roomy
It's not super long, but it has a roomier cut. If you're long-waisted that makes it largely impossible to tuck in but sloppy looking when un-tucked. I wore it under a sweater so it worked.

Drapey Floral Shirt
Lauren Ralph Lauren
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 210lbs
Bust: 38C
Great fit, nice fabric
This slim blazer fits perfectly and is great for us taller ladies. The pattern is nice and so is the fabric. It's moderate weight, so it can be paired with a sweater when it's colder or a light blouse when it's warmer.

Slim Fitted Long Blazer
Madewell
Size Worn: 14
Usual Size: 14
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 210lbs
Bust: 38C
Short in the waist
This is a nice sweater, but it's short-waisted and the collar doesn't lay flat. It's relatively lightweight.

Big and warm
Very boxy fit. Nice and warm Sleeves and length are plenty long for tall folks. I could have sized down from the recommended size.

Brand new but stitching is subpar
The sweatshirt is cozy, but the embroidery on the letters is fairly shabby and it was sent brand new.

Weighs a ton!
The pockets on this coat do not sit flat and they are at the widest part of your hips. It weighs a ton -- you feel it when you're wearing it for any period of time. It has HUGE shoulder pads. Runs large in the shoulders and long in the arms (even cuffed). I can't recommend it.

Gorgeous color and fit but it pills immediately
This sweater was fabulous... for 5 minutes. After wearing it all day under a jacket, it pilled really badly. I cannot recommend it.

Good for a long torso. Easy to pair with lots of bottoms.

Button Up Fringe Pocket Jacket

A bit too casual for my liking...
The pattern is great but the material isn't very crisp so it looks much more casual. The shoulders were tight and it's a bit short if you're tall with a long torso -- unless you want a cropped look.

Oversized and roomy
I wanted to love this sweater, but wow is it itchy. Even with another shirt underneath. I got lots of compliments, but I itched all day long.

Willow Fair Isle Sweater

Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14

Not for work
This is a flattering dress, but it's low-cut. Fashion tape doesn't stick to this fabric so you can't take any preventive measures to help conceal the cleavage. I'm not even very busty and I felt self-conscious in this dress. It's a shame because I loved it otherwise.

Nope, nope, nope.
This dress clung in all the wrong places and hit at a very awkward length for us tall girlies.

Chandra Midi Dress
Madewell
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 6' 0"

Very warm!
It's a fun style. Runs long with long sleeves so it was made for us tall girlies. But wow is it warm. If you run hot, you'll melt. It's scratchy enough that you need something under it, which only adds to the heat factor.

Just okay
Narrow in the shoulders with an odd lavender color in the print. Good for a one-off wear, but nothing special.

A great dress but...
It wrinkles so easy and the fabric can be clingy with static. Definitely challenging for travel. It's *very* flatteringly styled.

Runs big - definitely order true to size
I could have worn a 14. A 16, the recommended size, was quite boxy and oversized. That's not the intended style. Looked great with dark denim and heels.

Wrinkles easily and makes noise when you move!
The material of this dress ensured that it was always wrinkled. Plus it made noise when you moved. I didn't wear it out.
