Cute. TTS
I enjoyed wearing this to work and received several compliments. I understand the “flight attendant” vibe others mentioned but that wasn’t overpowering to me. Fits true to size. I had a bit of room in the 8 but thought that was more flattering / professional than a tighter 6 would have been.

Striking! Runs large
I loved this top! Wore it twice for 2 different nights out. People continually approached me to pay compliments. How fun! It’s very comfortable and roomy. I’d size down if rent again to give more definition at the waist.

Basic. Roomy.
Dress was just fine. A basic frock appropriate for day or dinner date. Nothing special. It’s roomy with a stretchy waist. I probably could have sized down but my normal 6 fit fine.

I always love Black Halo dresses but I always size up from a 6 to an 8. This was no exception. Great dress. Comfortable. Lots of compliments.

Runs small
This fit and I felt it was work appropriate and fun- but definitely didn’t have any extra room in this sweater! The M top was much more fitted than the M skirt, and the skirt stretched out during the day while the top didn’t. I recommend renting but size up on the top if you’re busty!

Skirt is roomier than top
This was a fun, different look. I got compliments all day. Ordered M in both top and skirt- the skirt was a perfect fit on me (6/8P), and stretched out a bit during the day. The top was very form fitting and didn’t stretch. Seems like the cleaning process has impacted top size more than skirt? I still recommend both but pick your sizes accordingly.

Perfect fit. Great pattern. Soft
This was cuter in person than I expected. For people sensitive to itchy sweaters, this is a good pic because it’s soft. I would have worn multiple times if our Texas weather had complied!

When I took this top out of the bag I thought it looked too small but it ended up fitting great. Was very comfortable and I got lots of compliments both in the office and on the weekend. Great weight for spring transitional.

I’m a 6/8 and the M fit well. I probably could’ve sized down but this was comfy and work appropriate. I got tons of compliments. Nice way to mix up my typical silhouette for the office.

Fun but too much cleavage (added cami)
This was a great dress for Valentines dinner. TTS. But: (1) way too low cut for my comfort level so I added a camisole underneath. And (2) Elastic at elbows was oddly very tight. I forgot about that after having the dress on for a bit, so not a big deal, but something to be aware of.

Size up! Difficult to pair with blazer.
I really wanted to wear this but it was just too tight in the chest to be office appropriate. It would have been fine with a blazer but I didn’t have anything that matched. Bright white didn’t work and neither did black. Will likely rent again in the spring in a larger size.

Spare yourself
My sister and I shared a big laugh over this “asparagus dress.” It was an absolute no for me. Runs huge and overwhelmed my 5’2 frame. I would grab several inches of extra fabric in the back of the waist.

Too long on petite
I liked the fabric but dress was way too long - and specifically too low cut- for my 5’2 frame. I buy a tank top under it but still felt self conscious in a work environment. But it’s a pretty dress for the tall ladies!

I can’t say enough how much I loved this dress! Fit was perfect- although I still needed a 4 inch platform heel even with petite length dress. I got compliments all night long! I wish I could wear this everyday!

A bit crazy but cute
I was unsure about this but got lots of compliments. I should have sized down. You definitely need a full length black slip under it if you’re not wanting to show undergarments. I preferred the neck tied up rather than open.

I loved wearing this sweater. It was comfortable, flattering, and unique. Paired well with flare jeans but would be easy to style with many pieces. I’m a 6/8 and this fit great- if anything I had some extra room in the waist but that was good to balance out form fitting jeans.

Laughably UNFLATTERING
I am so confused by the cut of this blazer. I’m a 6/8 and this did not work at all. It’s oddly big and adds bulk through the middle, yet tight in the shoulders and elbows (which I didn’t know was possible). I own another blazer in this brand and the cut of it is amazing so this was a big disappointment.

Glad I got the 8 (not 6)
I really liked the look and fit of the skirt. It hugged curves while still being work appropriate. I’m in between a 6-8 for most items. Definitely glad I got the 8 in this one. Wore well all day without wrinkling.

Comfy. Good for shopping/errands
I wore this specifically for a day of vintage shopping to be comfortable and make it easy to try on other things without a dressing room. That worked well with a black tank underneath. Overall top was cute but not amazing. Would be easy to style in various ways, dressed up or down.

Bought it!
Cute blazer with a ruffle that makes it different and interesting. Look forward to also pairing with jeans. Busty ladies be aware it’s slim through the chest so size up if that’s an issue. Looks better with a light/contrasting top than over black in my opinion.

Nips waist but adds bulk at hips; tight arms
Mixed feelings on this one. It was very fitted at waist and tight in upper arms (and mine are avg size), so size up if in between. While the fitted waist was flattering, I thought the chunky material added bulk overall- esp with flare at hips. Fabric and color (with a metallic weave and little confetti pops of bright colors) we’re ok. Fine for a January work day but nothing I’d swoon over.

Dated. Didn’t wear.
I didn’t like this blazer at all. It was way 80s (not in a cool way) and gave me circus vibes. But if it’s your style, fit it TTS leaning towards big.

Unique top; Slim cut.
When I first tried this on, I didn’t think I’d wear it. It didn’t work for me as a casual top with jeans as I’d intended. Later I tried it for work with a skirt and that was a better look for me. The sweater has more colors than you can tell from far away. I included a close up of the fabric to show you. I paired with fun blue heels and got lots of compliments on that choice. The sweater is slim cut without much stretch. I’m currently a size 8 and the M fit but wasn’t roomy. That said, I think it would look funny if it were baggy so I recommend your normal size.

Cute & Very Comfy- but didn’t wear
This was a cute dress and would have been a very comfortable option. But I liked another better for my event so I didn’t wear this. Might rent again for a future event. I’m between 8-10, and the 44 was a good fit. Remember to have a strapless bra ready to go!

LOVED this dress! Runs small.
I wish I could wear this fun, colorful sparkler every day! I wore to a NYE party and received compliments all night. It does run slightly small. I am between and 8-10, and this 10 fit with not a centimeter to spare. I wore a compression sports bra and spanx shaping shorts under it. Once zipped, I was comfortable all night and was able to sit and dance without any problems.

Fun - but neck it slim cut.
I enjoyed wearing this for a weekend day downtown. But when we stopped into a sports bar to catch a football game, a friend joked that I was dressed like the ref! 😆 The turtleneck is cut on the slim side and not very stretchy. I was comfortable all day but be aware of that if you don’t like tops tight at the neck.
