Liked this way more than I expected!
Rented this for a trip to Hawaii and wore it to a luau. I read the reviews that it ran small so I sized down to a 12 and it fit perfectly. Also this is the first time I have ever worn a romper, and from poor experiences trying on others, I was shocked I liked it as much as I did. It was super comfortable as well. Just needed a little fashion tape in the front to keep things in place. Wish I could afford to buy it!

Perfect print for Hawaii, just not in love with the silhouette.
The dress hung kind of tent like. Probably more ok if you plan to wear this as a beach cover up. But for dinner, I chose to add this belt. A bit wrinkled. I had to iron it pretty thoroughly and i kind of wished it was either shorter or maxi length.

I really wanted to like this!
I rented this for a trip to Hawaii. To start it was really wrinkled when it arrived and I had to iron it really thoroughly in order to wear it. And then after wearing it for just a few hours to dinner, it was already wrinkling again. Also it's really low. I'm kind of small in the chest area so maybe this could fly if you fill it out better than I did but fashion tape was totally necessary! Also the bottom half of the dress just isn't complementary. The length is kind of weird. I had my petite friend try it on and it kind of swallowed her whole. The volume of fabric in the skirt part of the dress just seems to make you look larger or wider. I wanted to like this. The print is so fun and I love the style of Mara Hoffman clothes but this wasn't for me.

Can't go wrong with a black dress
Wore this for a work event in Vegas. Loved how it flares out at the bottom and it was pretty comfortable!

Wore this for a work gala and felt really pretty in it! I wasn't crazy about the see through part in the middle but other than I was really pleased with it.
