SO heavy! Not for summer!
This review is for the 10R and the 10P -- I couldn't tell the difference. Rented as one option for a black-tie wedding. This dress is VERY heavy! Would be great in the winter - but much, much to heavy for summer. Imagine how heavy a dress could be an triple it. But a plus of very thick fabric and thick lining is that it does hide figure flaws... except hips, which this dress accentuates.

strings make it look like a mess
it would be nice to have a fitted black blouse like this, but the circle in the middle with the strings around looks bizarre. The weird strings don't show up well in the photo - so beware.

Great but slightly low cut for work
I’m busty so this was slightly too cleavage revealing for a 50+ yo woman at work (even tho my husband said it was fine). Wore with a nipped-waist navy jacket. Nice change from a business suit. Would be great for a daytime brunch or shower.

Great with a belt
I’m usually a 10 but got this in the 8 because of the other reviews. It looked like a massive tent. But with a thin belt, it was great. This was the perfect early spring week and this was the perfect dress for it. I had two important work event, speaking at a conference and a meeting out of town, so no overlap of attendees, so I got to wear this twice. Nice sub for a business suit.

Terrific fun sweater
I wore the large, which I would say is like a size 8 or 10. I don’t have any novelty clothing like 5his and would probably never buy it, so it was absolutely perfect to rent. Wore for a casual work offsite.

Unflattering
These are boring, unflattering, and feel cheap.

Beautiful, amazing. Couldn't zip it up.
Would have been perfect for summer evenings/cocktails. I usually wear an 8 or 10 but I'm quite busty. This was a large. It fit from the wait down, but I couldn't begin to zip it (nor could my husband when I asked him for help).

I love the current plaid trousers trend but wasn't sure, so rented these. Really great looking.

Not for me
I picked this because dresses this style are big right now, but when the dress came the primary colors and print were just too cute for me, so I never wore it.
