Unflattering for shorter gals w/ hips
The skirt length made it look frumpy and the top part is geared for longer torsos. Probably better suited for taller ladies who want to create more hip curves.

I didn't even come close to filling it out, and the straps are not adjustable. Couldn't wear it, sadly.

A lot of spare material...
Size down! Even then, you may end up with a big puff in the back from all the extra material. (I sized down, and it was still big) Otherwise, great material (doesn't wrinkle), great length, great pockets.

The shoulders are pretty wide, and the sleeves were 3" too long. (And I had sized down...)

Better for top-heavy shapes
I sized up based on other reviews' comments about the small waist. The bottom half fit perfectly, but I ended up with 6+ inches of extra material up top (gaping in the chest and in the back).

Long torsos need not apply. (Or perhaps size up.) I have a short one, and I still had to constantly shove my hands in my pockets to push the romper down to avoid it riding up.... But it otherwise fit great and doesn't wrinkle!

Received lots of compliments, but if you're short and not wearing heels, the trailing fabric comes pretty close to the ground. Runs a little large.

My son thought I looked like a librarian...
But what's wrong with that? Books rock, and so do librarians. Good for those with a shorter torso and relatively skinny arms. (Arm holes are pretty small with no stretch.)

Not terribly flattering, but cool pants!
As someone else put, I basically wore JNCO's to work... But instead of getting scoffs, I got compliments. There's too much material around the zipper, so it puffs out unnecessarily. But if you wear a tight top, tucked in, you can still avoid looking like a blue marshmallow.

Tiny waist, huge top.
Waist has no stretch, and there's a lot of fabric up top. Couldn't wear. (I am pear-shaped, though.) I normally wear a 4 and got the size 38.

Half Woman; Half Pumpkin
First, the waist is tiny with no stretch. I sized up and still couldn't comfortably sit without unbuttoning my pants. Also, perhaps this is because I am pear-shaped, but the pleats made it look like I was smuggling freight.

Stopped traffic.
As background: I’m middle aged, and not hot. On the way to a gala, my husband and I were crossing the street, and a man driving in the middle lane stopped his car, rolled down his window, and shouted “I love that dress! Beautiful! Just a gorgeous dress!” If I didn’t hate galas, I’d rent this again.

Better for tall women
To avoid looking like you’re wearing a thick garbage bag, you must cinch the waist. But the cinch was 6”below my waist (which I’ll admit is abnormally high), so this just didn’t work for me. Also the jumpsuit is super warm… better for fall/winter.

Perfect for short-ish ladies with short-ish torsos!
I struggle with jumpsuits/rompers because (a) I have a high waist, so there's always extra fabric hanging on my back, and (b) they are too long, necessitating heels I refuse to wear. Not with this adorable number!
