Cute Sundress
Loved it. Simple, flirty, strong color.

Super fun skirt!
Super fun maxi skirt with a slit in the front that overlaps so it's entirely possible that you don't notice it unless the wind blows or you're walking fast. There is a thin black mini skirt liner underneath just in case the slit opens up. Needed to wear fairly high heels for the length to work. Overall, I loved it. Felt like I was floating :)

Plunging neckline!
It's not just low cut, it's plunging and if you need a bra, you need the fancy pants kind that goes down to your diaphragm. So while it's not work appropriate, it's perfect for a summer wedding or party. I felt like a hot tamale and sugar sweet all at the same time. I marked it true to size because it did fit me without issue, but it was tighter than most dresses and there's not as much room in the hips as you'd think. If you're busty or hippy, size up!

Bold color; great fit
Loved the bright, bold color. Loved the interesting cuff. LOVED the feminine fit. In general, I like my blazers to fit snug and this one was a little looser. I'll definitely be renting this again and will try the smaller size.

Neckline with just the right amount of plunge ;)
This dress fit like a glove, hugged every curve and looked fabulous. Got so many compliments! Neck like was low enough to show cleavage, but not so low that you could wear a bra. Loved this dress, would definitely recommend.

Classic drama with a fashionable edge
Loved this dress and received so many compliments. Size according to your bust/ribs. It's not fitted through the waist and there's a full skirt with pockets to hide any issues in the hips. I'm 5'4 and wore fairly high heels (3-4 inches), but it was still an inch too long. Tried to find heels with a platform to give me a boost, but no dice. Dress was so fabulous, I dealt with it and just took my time walking around during the event. The 4S would have been too short.

Dramatic; fit issues
I didn't hate this dress on me, but I didn't love it either...was just ok. It gives a very dramatic first impression (awesome!), but it was loose in the waist, a little snug in the hips (no give in the material) and I felt like the weight of the cape on the one shoulder was pulling the dress and I was adjusting the dress more than I would have liked. In summary...I think this is a great dress for someone with a straighter silhouette.

Great fit; too short
This jumpsuit hugged me in all the right places and didn't give me a "long butt" like most other jumpsuits do. I didn't care for the draping on the side - just looked like fabric that hadn't been trimmed properly instead of intentional - and I felt that it was too short. I'm 5-4" and it hit right at my ankles. I would have preferred the long so that, with heels, the hem would have hit the floor to make my legs look longer.
