Toooo oversized
Had high hopes for these pants and blazer! Pants way too tight but way too long and the blazer was super oversized.

Pockets create wider silhouette
Wasn’t a good for for me. Great material, it fit, just not flattering at the waist.

The best dress ever
I loved this dress so much in a large, and then rented it again in a medium. Both are amazing. I REALLY want to buy the medium. It’s so girly and yet not fitted. I love tying the bow through the keyhole collar so it stays put.

Great material, super tight
Really tight on chest and sleeve, and there’s a seam at the ribs that creates a cute little unflattering roll. Love the concept, should have sized up if possible.

Cool idea, not flattering
Most jumpsuits like this look bad on me, but I’m determined to find one that works. This one is the closest I’ve ever come but still not a winner. Not flattering on belly or hips but I liked leg width and sleeve length a lot. As well as material.

Great silhouette, too tight
Really cool design of the dress, love the idea of it. Was way too tight on hip and butt—although it was stretchy it was too short.

TIGHT AND SHORT
This is a super tight dress, and very very short. No room in the bust. Not a possibility to wear.

Fun Pattern, Boxy Fit
The sleeves were a little baggy so I wasn’t sure if it would photography okay but I liked it paired with super tight pants! It looked best with a little cuff to help slim out the arms. I loved that I could easily button this jacket, the pattern is fun, and if I owned it I would likely wear it a lot! Fun with jeans, dress or pleather etc. Not a show-stopper but felt really confident in it and was exactly what i was looking for.

Unflattering Bulk
While the dress itself looked great on me—and yes the material is gorgeous—I looked too wide in photos with so much bulky sleeve.

Jacquard Shift Dress
Peter Som x RTR
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 5"
Shapeless—the way I like it!
I love the shift silhouette and this one fit the bill! I was looking for an outfit that I could comfortably present in at work and move my arms around, not have to suck in and not be too hot. Pros: This silky material is so thin but isn’t see through, not clingy and barely wrinkles. The length was perfect and I love the high neck! Cons: I had to deal with the sleeves by cuffing them and had to wear a jacket. It fits kinda tight around the butt and hips not to show your shape but more like just a tight fit right there. Zero stretch. I tried it on in Chicago and it was impossibly staticky and clingy but wore it in Santa Barbara where it didn’t touch me at all. And was perfect. So happy I could make it work, but the sleeve length is definitely wonky.

Fit was weird.
Didn’t wear. Too tight on chest, too loose everywhere else.

Really cute and nice quality
Although I didn’t wear it, I loved it. Hard to fully unzip, but just such a quality piece. Holds its shape. Just didn’t love how much armpit/bra is visible under the arm.

Lightweight, Memorable, Easy
This was a great jacket. The length and fit were perfect. The sleeve looked a little wonky on me until I cuffed it and then I LOVED it. I liked the fit a lot but there was no way I could button it. And for those saying they wore as a dress… how!? Loved wearing this. Would look great over leggings, jeans or a dress.

Weird fit, but made it work
I wore it open like an oversized blazer over pleather pants. I wanted it to work like a dress but the fit was SO weird and unflattering. Looked great as a blazer

Winter material, warm but itchy
I felt like I should have sized down. It’s very long. I wore it on a plane and to an informal gathering. It’s very itchy on the collar. Looks cool with pleather pants or leggings. Wish I had sized down so it didn’t look so bulky

Black Long Blazer Vest

Size Worn: M

Weird length, Unflattering fit
The pants were a weird length—like too short for a heel. And the liner inside made them comfortable but it stuck out past the length of the pants. Felt really boxy and not flattering. Didn’t wear.

Perfect for Work or Play
Absolutely obsessed with this jacket. I wore it over a cream dress during the day and over a black dress at night. Fits perfectly, long enough to cover butt and felt like it was slimming
