A compliment every time!
This dress got compliments every time I wore it. Even though it is more 'resort' than everyday I wore it everywhere, to work, to the grocery, out on a date. Huge hit! The fit is a little weird on the bust but I have a big chest and there was plenty of room.

Super flattering!
I have lumps and bumps everywhere right now and this dress was so flattering. As other reviewers have noted the top is weird but a cami underneath does the trick.

It has a zip up the front
I have a 36h chest and this didn't work. It has a zip up the front so less forgiving than buttons.

Very comfortable and loved the swishy skirt
This was a little too small for me but its stretchy so I got away with it. It was too small on the bust and would have shown side boob/bra if I hadn't worn a blazer or sweater. I got compliments when I wore it and it was very comfortable.

This coat is SOOO warm and comfortable.
so soft, so warm, so comfortable. I rented this for voter protection work in Nevada as its COLD there when the sun goes down. May as well be stylish and warm when saving democracy ;).

Bright bright pink, roomy fit and so cosy.
This was a 'I'll just throw this in my bag because I can't find anything I want' choice and I thought I would wear it on an upcoming trip to the east coast. But then we went on a last minute ski trip and I wore it and it was perfect. Not only was I easy to find but it was very comfortable and warm.

Amazing transitional weather piece - got tons of compliments
This is a comfortable but chic cardigan. I would never think of buying something like this but I wore it tons and got so many compliments. It enables you to wear comfy clothes but look great. It was perfect for those few 'is it winter/is it spring?' weeks we've had.

Beautiful color dress, runs very small
I have a mum tum and boobs. This fit was very small and while it would close it was very tight around the back, shoulders, and waist. Beautiful color and nice material but didn't work for me.

Beautiful color, relaxed fit
This is definitely a large size (I'm often in the situation where things are too small at my size), it is a beautiful color and flowy material but it did nothing for me on so I didn't wear it.

Fab style but short in the sleeves!
A bit of a snug fit, not good for my mum tum! But a great style and very flattering otherwise.

Not for a shorty like me!
This is quite a narrow fit on the shoulders. It fit with just a tee underneath but wouldn't work with anything chunky. I'm 5'4 and this is a midi type length. It's too long for me without towering heels. I love the detail on the arms though.

Stunning dress!
Such a flattering dress! Gives you a stunning hourglass whether you have one or not! Some quality issues with the dress with zip and boning. But the look and fit of the dress is perfect. Loads of compliments and very comfortable. A real classic.

The neckline
Great dress lots of compliments. But runs small!! Where it is small though is the chest. Not the boobs but the rib cage! It has a bra clasp inside and I struggled to get that closed on the10! I'm a 36 b/c so that was a surprise! As I had to wear the 10 there was plenty of room at waist and hips but not ridiculous. So that part was very comfortable but wasn't as flattering as not fitted to give the hourglass result. The 8 fit at waist and hips but snugly. I was happy with the dress but wasn't in love with it.

Fun flippy skirt!
I got this as my backup dress which I never planned to wear but loved the dress since I saw it on the site and the reduced price was irresistible! I wore it the day after the wedding and I wore it with a short black cashmere sweater and heeled ankle boots to casual it up! It is a very comfortable dress but is tight on the torso and tummy so if you have any sort of a tummy you would probably need spanx or the like. It is a thick material and it does hold you in and the black is very forgiving but you can definitely see all bumps! The skirt is also quite short (and I am short!) and I was wearing stockings so I was slightly conscious of that! Still this is a great dress and I felt fantastic in it. You could wear it for something casual or really dress it up. I would definitely buy this dress!

Gorgeous fun dress - got loads of compliments!
I got this dress in the 6 and the 8 and both fitted perfectly. I went with the 8 as it was slightly longer and the skirt was puffier! I think the 6 was more flattering as was tighter on the torso and therefore made me look slimmer but the 8 wasn't too big but more comfortable (you can see from the photo it doesn't go too in under the bust) and I was planning on eating and drinking so went for comfort! The skirt of the 6 was less puffy and I like the tutuness of the 8 (without looking ridiculous!). I usually wear a 6 or an 8 depending on the brand and day of the week. I got so many compliments from strangers! Women on the street stopped me to tell me it was a gorgeous dress! It is more dark blue than navy but not bright blue (as you can see in the other photo). I would def rent this dress again and would be quite tempted to buy it!
