super cute in all ways
i'm between a 10 and 12, and got the 12. I probably could have gotten away w/ a 10. very forgiving in all ways, but not frumpy/dumpy. kinda want to buy this!

beautiful ombre; runs small
i am between a 10 and 12, and got the 10, which was too small. particularly not forgiving in the belly area. a 12 would probably have been better, but might not have fit elsewhere. otherwise, beautiful dress.

Too small
i am between 10/12 and got the 10, which was too small. it was particularly not forgiving in the belly and best. not sure if the 12 would have been an improvement. however fabric is solid and color is true to the photo.

super flattering. size up if broad shoulders and bigger bust
Loved this dress. Looked super classy and perfect for work. I'm between size, have broader shoulders and a bigger bust, and there is no way i could have worn a smaller size. Def size up if you're top heavy.

OK top. Nice but nothing special.
wore it w/ skinny jeans, but ultimately it wasn't a "wow' top. i sized up b/c i worry about buttons + my bust, and that was probably the right call. however, if you aren't as busty, your normal size is probably fine.

flattering cut. thick fabric
this dress was very flattering, but pretty short. might work w/ black tights in cooler weather. the fabric is fairly thick so best for fall/winter. also, the fabrication is a bit fancy for work, but you could still pull it off if you wanted.

really beautiful color (berry, not red) and the styling keeps it interesting. however, this was very boxy (more so than others of this style). not the most flattering dress in the larger sizes.

i sized up to a 12 b/c the material was stiff, but probably could have worn a 10. however, the dress was still a hit. if you love the colors and the print, definitely try it out.

cute look, tough to style
i still haven't figured out how to wear this b/c i don't feel comfortable wearing it w/out something underneath. however, the shape is very flattering. I will probably put a simple long-sleeve dress underneath to keep it decent.

great print, a little loose, but still felt good
i'm busty and the large was still probably a little looser than i would typically want (medium might have been too small, though). if you're between sizes, definitely size down. really fun, though.

really cute! totally fine for bigger bust
fitted shirt dresses are always a crap shoot for my bust (32DDD). the 10 was great and didn't create any gapping and still had room to move my arms. really cute dress for spring! wore w/ nude flats.

too long for 5'4" lady but great print
loved this but had some issues with fit. i'm between a 10 and 12, and the 10 was too tight on the bust. i had to wear a cami underneath and keep the button open. also, the dress was too long for me to wear flats. 3 inch heels is what kept the length off the floor (i'm 5'4"). if you're less busty and taller (or don't mind heels), this is an amazing dress.

a very straightforward sleeveless shirt dress. can't say much except it ran a tiny bit large, but probably wouldn't have changed the sizing if i had the choice. the color of the blue is less teal than the photo; more royal blue. still great.
