Comfortable, yet stylish
worked with my apple- body and large chest Liked the black velvet zipper down the back. A bit conservative but perfect for my work event.

I lost count on the number of compliments!
Glamorous and fun dress that I wore for a large reception. Comfortable despite being all sequins, and it worked for my apple body. I could make it dominantly blue or orange (or all mixed up). I'd rent it again, except that it was so memorable.

Really cute zippers
A lot of details on this dress with pleats and dark zippers. The fabric was heavy enough to hide a lot of body flaws. My only slight issue was that I could see my bra under the arms, which is pretty common for me if I get a big enough dress. Loved it though and will likely rent it again.

Stylish casual
As other folks have noted, it takes a bit of creative knot-tying to keep from showing off your belly. But I received many compliments on it, and it was cool on hot summer days. Loved this top!

Sparkly!
I didn't wear this because it didn't fit (it seemed pretty small), but it is a nice garment. I picked it for work, but it was definitely more appropriate for evening because of the gold fibers, which I hadn't appreciated from the photo.

Love it!
Super warm! Many complements! I wanted to get a Large but ended up getting an X-Large because of limited availability. I think this worked well if wearing a bulky sweater, but otherwise I might have liked the smaller size.

Really flattering fit
It's a bit dressier than I had anticipated, so I'd put it in the work/party category rather than everyday (for me, not dressy). Nice fabric & flattering fit on this no-longer-skinny bod.

Major cleavage
Although quite comfortable and polished looking, this dress revealed waaaay too much cleavage for the work-event I was hoping to wear it to. Note- you'll need a bra that fits accordingly.

Sadly too form-fitting
Although quite comfortable, this dress was just too form fitting for the work-event I was hoping to wear it to. It showed every curve of my size 14 apple body. Would have loved it if I were 120 lbs!
