So short!!
The fit itself is great, but at 5'6 if I moved my arms I risked showing my behind!

So short!
I am 5'6 and this was definitely more of a tunic than dress on me!

Little too bootylicious
The fitted part before the bottom ruffle was just a little too sort and kept riding up so I felt very exposed!

Didn't wear
Really long - I'm 5'6 and this was to my ankle bones instead of midi as it appears

Not quite the look of the picture
The fit of this dress is so odd - it was too big but too short thru the skirt and WAYYYYY revealing through the top. The tie part is not adjustable :/
Tartina Tie Dress
Bec & Bridge
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 145lbs

Great fabric, not great armholes
The color, fit, and fabric of this dress are to die for - but with the way the arm holes are cut for the off the shoulder it makes movement very limited!

It can be a little low cut, but you can adjust pretty easily!

Red always makes an impression!
Loved this simple, elegant dress! Its just different enough to be memorable, but oh so chic! The 6 fit better but I was uncomfortable with how revealing it was in the stomach section!
Red Gallagher Dress

Perfect for spring or summer!
I got so many compliments on this sweet little dress! It runs a little short, so while it was a tad big for a medium I'm not sure the small would have been safe for me to wear without flashing things I would prefer not to! Only drawback is that the fabric wrinkles SUPER easily and fast!

The fabric is much heavier than it looks - in the hot summer it was too much! It's also a bit tentlike!

Derby Gala Bliss!
This dress was so comfortable and fun! I got so many compliments as it stood out in the crowd! The top runs a little big, but nothing double sided tape can't fix!

I didn't end up wearing this dress, but it will become my go to backup. It's the perfect amount of stretch and super flattering!

Not as nice in person
The lining of this dress stuck out at the bottom quite a bit. The sequins were super scratchy

Love this swingy shirt!
This shirt is short and flippy, which is normally TERRIBLE on me. However, this hit at THE EXACT RIGHT SPOT!!

Fun floral dress!
You have to go bra less for this dress, FYI! The open back is just a peek, perfect for being flirty but not overly sexy! Fabric is thick enough to be flattering but not heavy! Love it!

The animals loved it!
Wore this to a summer party at the zoo! Loved the color, it's a tad short (I'm 5"6 for reference) so I wore flats to minimize the chance of booty exposure. Wouldn't recommend for steamy days, the fabrics is thick and the high neckline is a little restricting!

Derby backup!
The 8 and 10 weren't available so I thought this might work - Definitely get your actual size. Fabric is soft and comfy so you don't need to go up!

Needs a slip!
The fabric is very clingy and wrinkled incredibly fast in an unflattering way

Short!
Much shorter on the higher hem side! Too short for me to wear at 5'6 - albeit I have a short torso and longer legs so perhaps that's why I felt too self conscious to wear!

Wore to the first day of the Breeders Cup
I loved this dress, though it is DEFINITELY more red than orange! Fits well and is not too short or tight. Goes easily under a jacket or blazer

I wore this to the Breeders Cup day 2.
This was the back up they sent after 2 of my original orders went awry. It got there the day after I wanted to wear it so the dress I wanted to wear on Saturday I had to wear friday. Dress is fine, material is a little more scuba-esque then I wanted.

Worn to Ferdinand's Ball - a pre-Derby event.
Loved this dress! Unfortunately, it was chilly and I barely got to take my jacket off. The picture attached is one of the few I remembered to take - after the event! It is extremely flattering AND you can wear a real bra! I possibly could have gone down a size, but the 10 was very comfortable.

I ordered this as a backup and didn't end up wearing it. It looks much more nude in person and the fit isn't quite as flattering.

Didn't end up wearing it - wore my backup
I was so focused on finding a dress that other larger chested women had reviewed highly, I didn't look for how it fit on the butt! It was VERY tight through my butt!! It showed everything - so I ended up wearing the back up!

Derby party!
Rented this for a formal derby party in my 2 usual sizes, 8 and 10. The 8 fit well from the waist down, but the top was awkward. The 10 was just too big in general.
