Tough zipper but gorgeous
Opted to not wear to wedding because of cold temperature but wished I had in the end. It’s such a beautiful dresss and fit perfectly except very tight in the ribcage and the zipper has a hitch in it that made it nearly impossible to zip. I couldn’t do it but my friend after several failed tries got it zipped. I normally wear small or medium and sized up to large thinking that would be fine. If the zipper didn’t have that little grab in it, I think I would’ve been more easily able to wear it - but still, quite tight in the ribs. Also, it is def a tall girls dress as everyone is saying!

I really wanted to wear this forever but the color and style didn’t flatter. But so comfy - like a little parachute.

Too much
Lovely pattern and color. Fit great. Not sheer as someone wrote. But couldn’t bring myself to wear it - the big tiered skirt was just too much. It would have been a terrific blouse!

Lots of compliments
Lovely soft fabric. Great color. I’m tall and appreciated the generous length. Not super warm but fine with a scarf for 45 and above. Received many compliments. Two cons: No pockets! They are fake. And the silver buttons are too garish for me.

Maybe someone else could pull it off! I don’t look too good in black so that didn’t help. It was severe.

Runs small and is bulky
Nice silhouette from the front. From the back, probably because the material is heavy and kind of stiff, it was unflattering to my bum! And normally I can wear a size 6 almost all the time, but I tried this in both a 6 and 8 and they were both way too small.

Love this. Looks great with jeans and also wore with leather skirt. Soft and warm but not too heavy. Sleeves are long enough for me (I have pretty long arms) and it drapes beautifully. Will probably buy!

Runs a little small
Couldn’t wear. If I were to order the next size up, the straps would probably be too long. I am usually a small in tops so went with the 4. It’s a very good looking, well-made piece though. Lovely fabric and design.

Bohemian, fun, poofy!
Cool fabric and pattern. Very cool and bohemian, kind of fancy tie-dye. I loved that. Fabric is starchy and solid and won’t wrinkle. But straps fell even on tightest setting. And the bottom is poofy and won’t make you look slim, if that’s what you’re looking for! But it’s got enough positives to be worth a shot. I might even rent again. :)

Great look!
Wore on NYD and got many compliments. Love the warm color, fun pattern, and flouncy feel. Only complaint was that neck was very tight. I kept the top back unbuttoned and that made it more comfortable. I don’t think my neck is particularly large either! Otherwise fit perfectly. Not sure if sizing up would have helped but possibly.

Not forgiving enough
Cute, well-made dress. Didn’t wear because, although it technically fit, it doesn’t hide the bumps and I did not feel like wearing a shaper while on vacay in Caribbean! I’m sure it would look great on a tall, lean body.

Comfortable and nice buts runs small
Did not wear. I would’ve tried another size, but was too nervous about striking out again. The colors are great, fabric is smooth and comfortable and cut is forgiving. I would give it a shot if you like it, but just watch the sizing especially in the chest area. I am small/med-chested, but it was about at least a size or two too small (normally a size 6 is accurate for me.)

Form-fitting and flattering but too frufru
This dress fit me like a glove and I really did get a lot of compliments on it. However my boyfriend wasn't crazy about it because it looked a little matronly to him and he didn't like the puffy sleeves. I have to say I'm also not crazy about puffy sleeves. :-) I think this dress would work well for an interview on television or a work-related thing but maybe not for a date! But it is well made and super comfortable.

Not for me
I was excited about this dress but never ended up wearing it. I'm blond and usually can't wear flat black fabrics. I thought the pattern would have lifted it but it didn't work. The cowl neck was a little odd on me as well for some reason. It just didn't work. Have to say: VERY comfortable though! Light as a feather. Super-cool pattern. Fit perfectly. Someone else will love it!

Nice piece but wrinkles
I hate ironing so this shirt was not for me. Also, the sleeves when rolled up looked heavy (and wrinkled). If those two things were different I probably would have bought it!! Cool collar, very comfy, very casually stylish. And the small size was right for me : I am between S and M usually.

Fab except for one thing
This dress fits beautifully except for weird gaps near the underarms. I pinned one side and it pretty much took care of the problem. I reviewed this as "true to size" because overall it is - if I had gotten a smaller size to deal with that arm gap I don't think it would've fit. The fabric is luxurious and light and it flows beautifully walking. Also very forgiving. You can dress this up or down.

Arms are tight.
My arms are not twiglike but they're also not "oversized". Ouch - couldn't wear it bc the elastic cut in. Fit well otherwise. Nice comfy fabric and pretty neckline. Super casual.

Perfect fit. Sexy slit. The silk fabric is so luxe. It's very flattering esp with booties but could also wear with sneakers or sandals. Might buy but too expensive for now.

I realize it is oversized but perhaps should've gone with an extra small instead of a small size. It's a cool sweater and I'm sure will look awesome on many people!

Lots of compliments
Fits very well except a little large up top. Wearing a padded bra solved the problem. Very comfortable and doesn't wrinkle. I can't decide if it's a tad matronly or not but will keep it for a while longer. My BF said "it's nice, but not my favorite"!

Versatile, cool, and very British!
I rented this with the pants that go with it and ended up taking the jacket to England. It was great for throwing over a dress for both casual and formal events. It's a great outfit for traveling because it doesn't wrinkle! I am tall and have long arms but the jacket fit perfectly. Hope it goes on sale because I will buy it!

Bust has funny sizing
This dress looks better on the model than it did on me. There is just too much going on with all the different elements. The bust landed nowhere near my boobs! I am a 36B and weigh 147. Otherwise it did fit fine but I never wore it. It might be good for a garden party for a very young person and definitely more of a fun statement piece than anything elegant.
