Printed Heart Dress
Rabanne
Size Worn: 40R
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 136lbs
Bust: 32B
The color green is wonderful and I imagine flattering on a lot of skin tones.
I was happy to wear a camisole underneath (you have to) and maybe I should have tried black like the model in the photo. I wore a nude camisole and I didn't really like the contrast between my upper and lower body because it didn't seem very flattering. It is basically true to size, or perhaps a little small.

Amazing colors and fabric
I received a lot of compliments when I wore this dress because the colors and pattern are so vibrant. It is a maxi dress for sure and I don't usually wear those so it felt a bit overwhelming.

Fits amazing - gorgeous dress.
Love it, love it. It is very fitted but there is a lining in the dress with some give so it feels just right. I thought it was going to be too small when it arrived but it turned out perfect.

So pretty
The dress is great, I wore it for a formal event that was on Zoom but I wanted to have some fun and dress up. I also got fancy earrings from RTR and they completed the outfit. The dress is a wonderful color red, was comfortable and pretty.

Need to remove a rib
Some of the reviewers mentioned the small waist, I can't imagine this fitting unless I could somehow remove my lowest rib. The back of the dress is, however, stunning, so give it a try if you are particularly teeny.

Maybe the designer intended this dress be worn with something underneath? Otherwise, too revealing
I don't understand how this dress works without showing your entire bra when you move.

Stunning color
I need to remember to "favorite" this before I forget. . .This sweater is gorgeous. It is, however, very thick and even though I was in cooler temperatures it was too warm for - probably - any summer weather. I'll certainly be back though, it's fabulous.

Loved it!
I'm so tempted to buy this jacket - it fits perfect, flattering but not too tight, sleeves were long enough for my wide shoulders and long arms. Wonderful color that is a neutral that will easily complement different looks, etc. Loved it.

I wanted to like it more
Arms are quite snug - maybe that is by design but I felt a little uncomfortable - especially in the summer.

Flattering and comfortable
I loved this dress, it fits really well and the fabric has a bit of stretch. The v-neck was perfect, flattering but not too low.

Yellow Plaid Dress

Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Too matronly
I wanted to try this in spite of some negative reviews but that was a mistake. The color is amazingly wonderful but the strange gap that other reviewers mentioned between the top of the zipper and the top of the dress doesn't work and makes it seem like something is wrong with the dress. And, the overall style is just. . .sort of. . .matronly.

Nice fabric and very interesting
I felt like the dress had too much "weight" on the bottom and therefore wasn't very flattering.

Love it!
I confess I don't understand some of the critical comments. I love this dress! It is "maxi" in style which isn't usually my thing but the fabric is great, there is so much attention to detail, the trim around the bottom edge makes it move beautifully. I've worn it a lot and I'm keeping it another couple of weeks so I can wear it to my first (!) dinner at a friend's house since before the pandemic.

So flattering!
I love this top, I'm reluctant to return it. I usually wear a 6 or 8 and I'm not quite sure how I ended up with a 12 (I must have ordered it accidentally) but I still love it. The fabric is amazing. I'd buy it but it is really expensive. For now, I'm just keeping it and wearing it a lot. Date night, on a Zoom call with my mom so she said I looked good and not tired, and today for a job interview. Love it!

Amazing fabric
I wear a 6 or an 8 and this came in a 6 and it was just too small - I think across the hips although I don't remember, I didn't wear it. But, I will order it again in an 8, the fabric is gorgeous and I love this designer so much.

Gorgeous
I loved this dress, I wore it a couple of times for at home happy hour with my husband but I think you could get married in it. One of the best parts is the lining which is soft and yet holds you together - amazing. Loved it.

Amazing fabric - great color and thickness.
This dress is gorgeous but the "V" was way too deep for me and so I returned it without wearing it. I think it is deeper than it shows on the model and if you sat down, moved around, etc you would need to be careful of what showed. So, the perfect undergarments and the right occasion will be important.

The green stripe down the sides just isn't very flattering. I wish they were just black or that (better yet!) the stripe was navy blue.

I bought it. . .
I rented this dress for vacation and I loved it. So. . .I bought it. It fit great and was very flowy and so still felt very flattering. There is a slit up the high side that makes it fun. Comfortable. Wonderful.

I'm not sure this dress was really flattering but it feels great on because of the very high quality fabric and the cut is interesting. I wore it with a chunky heel and it was perfect.

Great jacket. Interesting cut.
I wore this jacket several times in the evenings in Colorado. Even though it was black, it worked in the summer because it wasn't too heavy. I liked it because it is interesting and yet goes with everything.
