Runs Large
I am between sizes so I went for the smaller size and I was still swimming in it. It looked like a night gown on me. If it was more fitted around the waist and I had a smaller size I could see how it would be cute but I got it for warmer weather and the lining is thick. It didn't flow like I thought it would and is just heavier material than I expected.

One of my favorites so far!
I am an unlimited subscriber and I've tried a lot of pieces for work or going out, and this has been one of my favorites so far. I wore it to a kid's birthday party, then on a date night, then I paired it with a black cardigan for work. Very versatile. I"m always between a size 8 and 10, so I got the 10 and was very comfortable. But it moves well and the waist is stretchy, so an 8 probably would've worked too. I loved the crepe material and the pattern. It can wrinkle, so I probably wouldn't try to wear it anywhere important. But Overall, better than I expected.

Pretty skirt but small in the waist.
A size 10 is my upper limit in clothes, usually. But this 10 I couldn't even button all the way. I wore it up high on my natural waistline and still had to leave one button undone to be able to breathe. I wore a longer shirt over it to hide the unbuttoned button, and it looked cute. But even up high, it was still a bit long hitting right under my knee. So a 12 (which I never rent) might have been even longer. Not sure. The material is lovely, but the waist is small.

Beautiful material. I needed a belt.
I should have sized down. I'm usually between an 8 and a 10, but I got the 42 (is that Large? Can't remember). It was like a mu-mu, so I belted it and it looked very nice. The color and pattern are gorgeous. You can really play it up or down. But I would size down next time.

Floral Ondolina Dress

Size Worn: 42
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 8"
Weight: 175lbs
Bust: 36C
Boxy, but pretty
I probably should have gotten the medium so that it was just a touch more fitted because it felt a bit boxy and boy-ish. But the material is nice and flows well. And the star pattern is lovely. I only wore it to work once and then sent it back. I couldn't think of where else I wanted to wear it.

Great fit!
I loved this dress. I'm always between an 8 and a 10, but the 8 fit great. I wore this to a movie premiere with a pair of nude wedges and it was flattering even with my large chest and "wine pouf" (as another reviewer calls it). Even though it seems simple, it feels elegant and short enough but not too short (I'm 5'9"). The only drawback is that the ties on the sleeves kept dipping into my soy sauce when we went for sushi dinner. You gotta watch out for those if you go out to eat.

Dress it up or down. Cute!
Like most dresses on this site, this one is cuter in person. The see through material is black, lightweight and flowy. The skirt is pleated. The attached white slip makes it interesting. The length was great on me at 5'9 and hit right above my knee. The waist is elastic with a little tie belt, so plenty of room for your "stuff". I wore this to work and then again to a party with a little jacket. Love.

Lovely pattern, light material.
I love the fun touches on this dress like the elastic sleeves and the see through "train tracks" as my daughter said. But for a large busted person, the front slit is so low that it's hard not to see a bra peeking through. I also received this via Unlimited and it had a BO smell. Yikes! It needed more dry cleaning I guess.

Pretty color, great for work
It was a little see-through which I didn't expect. But I put on a blue tank top underneath and it was perfect for work with some tight slacks. I definitely left the top couple of buttons open. It needed it, for a little more sexiness. The patterns on each side are different, running horizontal on one side and vertical on the other, which is a nice flare. Lightweight.

Great color and super cute!
But a little short in the torso for me. And you have to peel yourself out of the top of it for bathroom breaks. Some strings I had to cut off so a bit worn, but overall, really liked it.

Beautiful pattern; no stretch
I really love the material of this skirt. If only the waist stretched a bit it would've fit a little better. Because it was tight on me, it sat high and so the flaps of the skirt stuck out a little bit instead of laying flat against my body. But I was not troubled with the split, even at work. It was sexy but not too revealing. It was a great item for my first try at Unlimited.

Pretty but tight
I have fairly small wrists and this barely fit. It was nice that it was snug so it didn't move, but just a little too snug because my skin bunched a little on the inside. I wore it with the Tibi tie sleeve shift and it looked great. It probably works with lots of outfits.
