Very short
This runs small. Didn't wear it.
Red Flores Dress
AllSaints
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
A bit boring
This looked very dowdy. I didn't end up wearing.
Red Floral Lucy Dress
Rebecca Minkoff
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Rented for a party but wore causally instead.
This dress is a little odd. The top runs a bit small, but the dress is huge on the bottom. Almost like a cotton ball gown. I wore it casually. It's definitely not a formal dress as it's a ton of material that's all cotton. If you are under 5'2" you will be swimming in it.
Black Marieta Maxi

Didn't love it. Runs very small.
Rented but didn't wear as it was way too small. The color is not very bright either so this looked very boring.
Printed Wrap Romper
Louna
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Runs very large. Size down
Didn't wear as the S was way too big. I am usually a size 4 but this was huge.
Polly Maxi
Waverly Grey
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Extremely long, and large.
This fit weird. I sized down after reading reviews. The dress comes in two pieces: a slip and a shell. The slip was very small, especially in the bust. The shell was huge, I am under 5'3" and even with tall wedges it wouldn't have worked. I sent it back and didn't wear it. I love Saloni but not this dress.
Blue Printed Lizzie Maxi Dress
SALONI
Size Worn: 2R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Runs very large-- more like a bathing suit cover up than a day dress.
Quality was not great. I ordered for a party but ended up wearing like a bathing suit cover up. I sized down after reading reviews, and I was glad I did but it was still too big. Really big in the bust area. Not a formal dress and i would say even too casual for a day time event that's not on the beach or at the pool.
Waiola Halter Maxi
RAGA
Size Worn: XSR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Sized up and it fit great
After reading other reviews I sized up and I was glad i did. I didn't like this on the hanger but i loved it on. It has an extremely deep V in the front, but there are clasps so you can make it more modest. Really cute.
Alix Mini Dress
The East Order
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Really liked this dress
It fit TTS. Only thing was the V is a little low so you could see my strapless bra a bit. If you are busty i would size up.
Lea Mini Dress
SALONI
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Runs very small!
I usually wear a 4, but the 4 was way too small. Didn't wear to my event.
Nantucket Morning Romper
Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Very revealing in the chest.
I don't know how someone could wear this if they have more than an A cup. I unfortunately couldn't wear this to my event because the V neck cut so low and wide. Runs small as well.
Red Sea Midi Dress
La Maison Talulah
Size Worn: MR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Fabric is not how it's pictured. Do not rent for a wedding!
I thought this would look more like a silk blend, but it reminded me of a thick rain coat material. I rented for a black tie wedding but I don't know if I would wear it for a picnic. Maybe a casual graduation party this dress could work, but not for a wedding. It's also extremely revealing in the chest.
Yellow Walker Dress
A.L.C.
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Didn't love how this fit. Awkward dress.
While i love Misa's long dresses, their short dresses fit very awkwardly. Most of their short dresses run very small, so I sized up. It was way too big and just did not fit right. I didn't end up wearing it to my event.
Eloisa Dress
MISA Los Angeles
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Cute dress, size up if you don't want it short.
I ordered a medium after reading reviews that it ran small, but I would have liked to have try the small it it was available. The dress is cute and flowy. Only issue was it it's windy it started to blow up since it's like a skirt on the bottom, so recommend wearing shorts underneath if you're in a windy sport.
Floral Popover Dress
LoveShackFancy
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"
Bust: 34C
Beautiful and comfortable!
Fits well, I sized up to give more room in the back, which is open. Beautiful silk! Only thing to note is that it does not hit the floor. I am 5'3" and it did not cover my shoes.
Floral Splash Dress

Size Worn: 6R

Really bag but beware it's small
I loved the bag but it only fit a small iPhone, lipstick, and tissues.

Really loved this dress
Fit nicely and ran true to size. Came with a sash for around the waist that you can tie or omit.
