Flowy, comfortable, looks expensive
Rented this for a beach vacation and wore it out to dinner. Even though the fabric is heavier and long sleeved, I still felt cool even in a tropical location. Beautifully made, expensive-looking. Lots of compliments. Meant to be loose fitting. The top is low cut but easy to hide if you tie the top strings.

Loose fitting, comfortable
Definitely a loose fit and doesn't do much showing any curves. Nice material though and super comfortable. Would be good for walking around the city in the summer time.

Makes you feel like a movie star.
This dress has been reviewed and worn a million times at this point but I'll add my two cents. Wore this two years ago to a black tie Indian Wedding. Tons of compliments all night long. Didn't have to wear a bra. I ordered the 6R and the 8R as the back up. Ended up wearing the 8R with 3 inch heels and it was the perfect length but I can definitely see the regular length being too short if you wanted to go higher or you were taller than 5'5".

Obsessed with this dress, wish I could own it.
I saw this dress a while ago and was looking for a reason to wear it. Ended up getting it for a black tie embassy holiday party. It was elegant, sexy, unique and I felt amazing in it. They only had the long left but I got it anyway even though I am typically a regular. With three inch heels the back just grazed the floor. A couple times my shoe got caught in the back but honestly I didn't care because of how awesome this dress was. Was a little tight in the bust but luckily the fabric was thick and didn't have to wear a bra. I would size UP for your backup.

Pretty
Fits true to size. Meant to b worn at the true waist but beware if you are wider in the hip area. Great for work with a blouse tucked in.

Not as cute in person
Nice size and cross body strap was perfect length. The cream color looked a little worn and less expensive in person.

Boxy fit
Cute coat but the fit was boxy. Probably wouldn't wear it more than once. The material was warm but with the fit and low cut wouldn't cut it for a DC winter.

Great fit, can wear to work or dress up for a party
Fit well. I wore it to work with a cream colored blouse and flats but can also imagine this with a cute sparkly top or sweater to a holiday party.

Cute for work or casual with jeans
Nice silky fabric but doesn't wrinkle the second you put it on either. Lots of wear potential for both work with slacks or a skirt and casual dressed down with jeans. Really liked this top.

Warm sweater but awkward shape
The sweater was nice and looked expensive but true to the photo on the model, the arms felt short and the rest felt boxy. No buttons to close in front, which is not for everyone. Wore with skinny jeans, a T-shirt and boots out one night in the winter without a coat and stayed pretty warm.

Cozy, felt more like a coat
Very long and cozy. Felt more like a sweater coat than a sweater. Wore this around DC casually in the late fall without a coat on top.

Loved this bag.
Loved this bag and was sorry to return it. I have been looking for a great everyday black leather bag and this one was great. Could fit my large wallet, phone, keys, ipad mini, water bottle etc. Loved the long strap and the handles. Seriously considering buying this bag to have permanently. Just beware that the sides pooch out when the bag is closed and stuff could fall out.

Great color, very stylish.
Wore with the Adrienne Vandau Ada beige furry vest and got a ton of compliments all night. Rented for a weekend trip to Chicago and wore it out all night. The fit worked for me but the front does go down pretty low. The length was perfect and my legs are on the shorter side. I wore with black healed booties.

So soft and stylish
Got this for a weekend trip to Chicago. Wore it with a the burgundy Kate jump suit by Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent and a pair of black heeled booties. So many compliments all nice long, people constantly wanting to try it on and rub it. There are a couple eye and hook closures in the front and definitely would not be able to close it if my bust was any bigger but not really meant to be worn buttoned anyway.

Great color, lots of wear potential
Overall a really cute dress in a great bright color -- more neon in real life than in the picture. The was true to size but a little tight across the front so would consider sizing up if you have a larger bust for comfort purposes, especially since the style dress is meant to feel loose. Great for work with flats or weekend/night with a nice sandal or wedge.

Adorable, tons of compliments at work
Got this in my unlimited shipment. The 6 fit close to the skin but was not uncomfortable and was more or less true to size but would recommend sizing up if you have a larger bust. Tons of compliments at work, loved the white collar. The dress itself looked a little worn.

Beautiful but didn't have a chance to wear
Really fun, pretty and comfortable except that I didn't receive it in time in my unlimited shipment to take on vacation. Didn't really have another chance to wear it so ended up sending it back. The MR definitely needs heels and I didn't have anything high enough that I liked with it. Pants are wide leg and flowy and give the illusion of a maxi dress. There is a small hidden button in the front to keep it from being low cut but the back is open so you either have to go bra-less or do a nu-bra. Would be great for a casual summer or spring wedding.

Comfy, can be dressed up or down.
Got this for a vacation to South America but unfortunately didn't get it in time. Ended up wearing to a work event with a white blazer and then out to dinner and drinks. Felt appropriate for occasions except that it cuts sort of low in the front so I had to keep the blazer fastened at work. If you have a smaller chest can definitely get away with not wearing a bra. There is a small black tie that gives more structure to the waist but my husband didn't think it did my for my figure - I wore it anyway because it was comfortable!
