Cute idea, too much fabric
Ordered in 2 sizes, the smaller was better but missing the shoulder pads and the proportions were totally off without them. There’s too much fabric below the knot - I have wide hips and was still swimming in fabric. Didn’t wear.

Fit Seems Off
All the reviews said it ran small so I went up a size and it was huge! Couldn’t wear it.

Not great for small busts
This top is so cute! I pinned the straps up which made it wearable, but there was extra fabric in the bust. I wore it to book club and got a bunch of compliments, but while the ruffles covered most of the extra fabric, I felt a little self-conscious. Size 10 was perfect, other than straps and cups!

Loved the Look!
I love the look of this dress. The boning gave the dress great structure but it was a little tight on me - I felt the dress ran a smidge small. The straps tying made the fit easy, but getting the straps (and hem) ironed flat was a pain.

Tie isn't a Draw String - Too Large
Love the idea of this top but I needed to be able to cinch the tie at the waist to make it flattering, and that wasn't possible. Didn't wear it.

Fun dress, fit is a little funky.
This dress is super fun! As mentioned the straps are long and not adjustable - I started with a 10 and had to go down to an 8 to get it close to fitting in the bust. It was still loose but passable. Wore this for a work conference in Mexico and got tons of compliments.

Comfortable and Gorgeous
I wore this to a couple parties and it was a hit. First, it’s like wearing pajamas - so comfortable!!! I’m usually a Medium in Farm Rio so I was surprised the Small fit, but it was great. The length worked well with flats and low heels. Loved enough to re-order in the future.

Loved but Peplum was Awkward Length on me
Loved this top! Wore for a work conference and got tons of compliments. I love a peplum but this one was a little longer and hit me at the widest part of my hips, which is my problem area, so it only worked with a specific straight leg pair of jeans/jean shorts in my closet. Once I found the right bottom it was darling. Did not have any issues with buttons opening (I'm also small chested).

Not for Pear Shaped Ladies
True to size, but this dress was not friendly to my hips. It buttoned but pulled a bit, and once you add the ruffles on the side of the skirt, I looked extra wide. The buttons at the top also didn't hit me right - it was too matronly buttoned above my bra, but I would flash people if I went down one more. I'm sure it's cute on the right person, that just wasn't me.

Stylish and comfortable with pockets!
Love this dress. I'm small busted and it fit beautifully on top. The cut was perfect for my pear shape and I loved that there were pockets. The zipper got really stuck at the waist, where there are 6 layers of fabric, but once I got over that it was great. I ordered the tall length which was just a smidge long with my 5'8" height and 3" heels, but I liked the skirt brushing the ground. Incredibly comfortable and stylish.
