Doesn't fit an iPhone X
I was unable to use this. I could squeeze my iPhone X in with literally a mini lip glass and nothing else - but not close it. It doesn't seem smaller than other similar clutches, but the way it is constructed, I could not fit a standard compact or my phone (separately, certainly not together). I need very little on a night out, but this couldn't even do the basics. There was room - just the dimensions were off to make it useful to the user.

Stand out in your LBD
Great dress. Modest but gets lots of attention. As other reviewers noted, there is no stretch. I wore the UK 10 (US 6?). The sleeves are fabulous. It was a very cold evening so getting the sleeves in a coat was a little challenging. I wanted to keep this and was searching to find it.

So ladylike
This dress is so flattering. The 4 and 6 both fit, but i decided to wear the 6 due to a week of Thansgiving related overeating. The one challenge is that the dress has no stretch, and a small slit, so getting in and out of the Uber SUV wasn't easy. I wore this to an event with my in-laws. Very appropriate yet still a little sexy with the great tailoring. Thick, high-quality fabric that works in cooler weather.

Very comfortable, classy, & sexy
Both the 4 and 6 fit, but I needed the 6 for a bit more space in the bust. This is low cut, but you can wear a bra. It's very flattering - but was much more revealing on me than the model. Comfortable fabric. It hides imperfections as it's a nice, thick material.

I stood out in a sea of black outfits
I wore the 6R but it had about 1.5" gap at the waist as I have an hourglass figure. The 4R fit, but was too short in the torso. It wasn't a good look if you sat down or moved the fabric at all. It's unlined and rather thin so probably would need layers in colder weather. A lot of fun and many compliments throughout the night.

Great cut
Unlike other reviewers, I could not wear a strapless bra without really showing, but petals did the job. The tailoring is great. Accentuates curves and gives legs for days as it hits high natural waist. Really comfortable.
Sea Green Side Cut Sheath

Matronly
The dress fit well. I'm usually between and 4-6 and I preferred the 4. I'm 5'6" and this hit almost at the ankle. It was an odd length, not ankle but not tea length. I found it to be very matronly. I didn't wear it. The color is gorgeous though.
Merlot Red Lace Sheath

Beautiful, comfortable dress.
The 4 fit as well, but was tight in the chest, so I decided to wear the 6. Like other reviewers have noted, you may want to order the long. I am 5'5" and the regular dress didn't hit the floor for me, once wearing heels. This is a great dress for fall/winter as it also keeps you relatively warm for a formal dress.

A little too much for me - didn't wear it
This dress is gorgeous. The Small fit, but the Medium fit me better. Unfortunately, it was just a bit too much of everything - too short, too (purposely) snug and too much cleavage. It was very sexy - and I was looking for sexy - but it was just too much at once for me. That said, I live in a conservative political city. Had this been earlier in my life or in another location, I probably wouldn't have thought twice about wearing it.

I liked it so much I bought it
So flattering and comfortable. This let's you be the coolest girl in the room without trying. I've dressed it down with simple pumps or up with over-the-top jewelry. I am an hourglass shape, so it worked really well for me. I tracked it down after the event and found a store that carried it because I liked it so much.
