Loved the sleeves! Got a ton of compliments! Only noted is that velvet can be heavy / didn't need a jacket on a 55° night and got hot in the venue.

Vienne Off the Shoulder Dress

Ran big for a medium which meant the oversized puff felt really big on my petite frame. Otherwise VERY warm — too warm for central Texas fall! And the hook & eye closure was a surprise. Not terrible for a casual one-hook look, but also not particularly functional overall.

I had a love-meh relationship with this coat. Love: the colors, the crop, the sleeve length, the pockets, the warmth, the fact that it could be worn over a t-shirt or a massive sweater (pictured) and still look good, and, because I wear a lot of gray and black, it works with most everything. Meh: I’m not big on lapels and these were so big that they overwhelmed the shape… there was also no way to make them do anything different (stand up or stay buttoned up), so it just didn’t feel right with my face or what I wanted functionally. Ultimately returned it because I live in a warm state and didn’t need to keep it.

It’s bold, and a lovely fabric — it fit everywhere but the shoulders, which were tight. Can’t confirm but I feel like if I’d gone up a size to accommodate that, it would have overwhelmed me.

I *loved* wearing this dress. Felt playful and very feminine. Only downside is the fabric — it’s so many layers of synthetic fabric that it does not breathe. So, it was 80° on the day I wore it, and even as it started to cool off at night, I was so warm.

I have a tiny rib cage, but am hourglass shaped. I could get this on and zip it, but if I wanted to do anything other than stand in it, the side zipper would open (from the waist up).

I wore this to the office (x3), on a plane (x1), to dinner (x2)... truly very versatile while being very dramatic. The tiny snap at the cleavage sometimes popped open if I made big arm movements and it seemed shorter (more like a crop top length) than the photos. (And I'm a short-waisted person, so that's saying something.)

I thought I'd rent this as a transitional item, but it's far too thick and heavy for that! Cute, though.

The fifth time I wore this, I woke up late on my first day of work at a new job and thought "well, I'd still rather be in pajamas" — popped this on and still managed to impress. My weight varies, though, so I'm sending it back because I don't think I'll fit back into it for a bit.

Great material, fun neutral pattern with pops of color. This fit right in so many ways — length, sleeve circumference, etc. — but was just a little too snug in the chest.
