Comfy, quality dress, with unique cut-outs.
I didn't end up wearing this to work because the cut out in the back is more pronounced than I thought AND there are additional cut outs, kind of under your shoulder blades. They are kind of hidden, but just didn't seem right. The great part of this dress is how comfy and flowy it is. It fits great and has awesome pockets. It wasn't super flattering on me (size 14). It feels great to wear, but I think felt like a lot of print.

Cute, preppy pants.
I didn't end up wearing these. The pattern is more pronounced than I thought and it made it more preppy/conservative than I like. These fit well and seemed comfy, but I didn't like that there was no hook/button at the top of the pants, which made it tough to get the zipper up.

It's a comfy fabric and very cute.
It fit like a standard 14. It's a little boxy and flowy which worked for me because I have a belly. The sleeves are cute with the tie-bows and it makes it a little different.

The Butterfly Blouse

Comfy and flowy.
I wore this dress to an evening event, a film opening. The dress is interesting. The fabric is comfortable and swingy and the strapless stayed up really easily! As other reviews have mentioned, the built in ruffle/cape adds some interest and fluidity so it's not like you are just wearing a sheath, which is great for someone like me who is always trying to hide her belly. The weird thing is the ruffle/cape doesn't totally cover your belly, but is kind of to the side. I wasn't sure I was wearing it right, but I think you could kind of rotate it to make sure it worked for you. I ended up wearing it with a wrap to dress it up and it was super comfy and easy to wear.

Very pretty dress!
This is an awesome dress! The quality is great, the fabric has a great feel and thickness and the pockets are amazing and it fit perfectly! I didn't end up wearing it because I needed more of a black tie dress, but would definitely rent this again for a different occasion. The waist hits slightly higher than natural, a bit like an empire, which was really flattering for me because I don't have much of a waist. It feels super girly and pretty!

Cute & festive.
I loved this dress. It is a great quality and adorable! The pattern is great and the fit was good. It was a little shorter than I normally would wear. And it hits right at the waist. I don't have much of a waist so it might have been more flattering on me if it was a higher, empire-style waist, but it's definitely festive and kind of flirty. Also, with the netting, the neckline feels kind of sexy, without being too revealing.

Super short - in the waist and length
I loved the idea of this and the fabric is nice and the color is great! But it really didn't fit at all so I didn't end up wearing it. I'm 5'5" and it was super short-waisted, so the crotch of the pants rides up really high (ow!) and it was short in length. I could have maybe worn it with flats, but definitely not heels. Not a good look for me. Maybe try it if you are short or try the long version as a back up.
