Weird fit
This is my second time ordering Mott and bow jeans without success. I have heard great things about them and was excited to rent them. They just are not flattering on my figure.

Didn't wear
The fit was disappointing. The waist fell in a weird place. It was a weird cut in the chest. The dress would have been better off without buttons.

Big top, small bottom
The top was much larger than the bottom so it was not flattering. The top would shift constantly. Was hoping for a better fit.

This was a small T-shirt dress that was sheer and not flattering. It barely covered my private areas.

Full skirt wide top
This was not a flattering cut. The top was wide and very square. The skirt was full and made me look large than I am.

Weird Length and Kind of Sheer
I was so excited to get this dress and when I tried it on was completely let down. The fit was weird on my height because it hit a few inches below my knee which was not flattering. The material was thick but you could still see the color of my under garments.

Too small to judge
I am normally a medium but I wish I sized up 1 or 2 sizes because it was so small. I was also disappointed in the material. It was thin and felt cheap.

Pop of Color!
I chose to wear this without the belt. It was still flattering and flowed nicely without it. The fabric doesn't breathe easily.

Blushing from compliments
This dress was amazing! I did not wear a bra and did not have issues with the panel in the middle being sheer or too revealing. The fabric has some stretch and is a good weight for early spring. The fit was great on my hourglass figure. Best surprise was finding out the dress had pockets!!!!!!! Highly considering purchasing this dress!

Dressed up LWD
Love this white dress. The embroidered flowers add a nice pop of color for spring. The key hole back is a nice touch. I got a lot of compliments on this dress. My only complaint is that when sitting the slip under the lace tends to ride up so you have to be careful not to reveal too much.

Not a curvy girl's friend
I ordered a size 10 in this dress and it was tight if you have curves or a fuller figure. The cut of the dress fell right below my butt and kept riding up exposing my back side and making the front look unflattering. The dress also does not have any give.

Retro with an upgrade
The cut of this dress is amazing! I am normally a size 8 and I wore the 10 but probably would have been more comfortable in the 12. This dress hugs curves in all the right places and was stunning. I got so many compliments at work about it. Most everyone said it reminded them of a classic 1950s outfit but upgraded for 2019.

Unflattering Pockets
The pockets on the dress fell below my natural waist right on my stomach. They did not lay flat and bulged out making the look very unflattering.

Classic style with pockets!
Loved this dress, unfortunately the zipper was broken. I could have worn an 8 (TTS) but sized up and the 10 fit with some room to move.

Long enough to be a shirt
This dress would be so cute if it were about 3 inches longer. I couldn't post a photo because I would have needed to censor my front and back side. This dress was not an appropriate length for work or any occasion even with tights.

Disproportional on my frame
While the fun pattern and scalloped edges caught my attention, this dress was a flop. The waist was more a drop waist and not flattering on my figure. I wanted to love this but it just wasn't in the cards for me.

Like don't Love
I would recommend sizing up if you have larger hips like me. The 8 fits but it a bit snug in the waist/hips. I like the skirt and it is a fun piece to mix into my wardrobe, but I don't love it.

A moment on the hips
While I love my curves and wrap dresses usually do great to flatter them, this dress fell in a weird place on my 5'5", above average hip size frame. It was not flattering by any means which was unfortunate. Also, I have a smaller chest (34A) and the chest area did not lay right and was very exposing.

Perfect LBD
I am so in love with this dress. I wore it to work and a holiday party later that evening. Everyone loved it and gave me so many compliments. It is the perfect length and so flattering. I am even thinking about buying it because I love it so much!

Flattering Fit!
When I tried the dress on, I understood what Beyonce meant when she said "feeling myself." I am absolutely in love with this dress. The pattern and style are very much outside of my comfort zone but I am glad that I pushed myself to try this dress. I feel so confident in this dress. It is amazing!

Perfect brunch wear!
This dress is extremely comfortable! The additional detail on the top and sleeves make this LBD have a bit of flair. I wore this to brunch with some girlfriends and everyone loved it.

Not so Green with Envy
I tried this on immediately because this was the dress I was most excited about in my unlimited order. Unfortunately, it did not flatter my shape. The shoulders poof up slightly and made me look broad. I think a smaller frame would be the best fit for this dress.

Unfortunate Fit
I ordered this dress to work into my everyday wardrobe and figured for the winter in Chicago it would make for a cute going out piece. Unfortunately it was tight and did not flatter my shape.

Subtle, Elegant Accessory
This was the perfect clutch! It was large enough to fit my phone, spare make up, and my ID/credit card. Everyone at the event I was at kept complimenting it. The shine was subtle enough that it was eye catching without being in your face. I absolutely loved it.

Stunning pop of color!
The dress fit perfectly and everyone complimented me all night. I received the 6 and 8, I am normally a 6 but was concerned it might be tight. The 6 fit like a glove. The color is stunning and pops wherever you are at, and this is coming from someone who can always be found in black. I am event thinking about renting it again for Christmas!
