LOVE the phares
I own both a phare blouse and dress both in size 2, so I knew to size-up - and am glad I did. This is perfectly comfy and not as tight as my size 2’s in the arm hole and bust area - my back and arms are very thin, so it’s just the cut. The one problem I always run into is the armhole of the sleeve that is not off the shoulder. While a size 2 does fit, I always feel a little more restrictive. I’m glad I went for the size 4 this time, because the fit around the bust and arm area is perfect! There’s a little extra fabric around the bottom portion of the dress for me, but it’s still the perfect length, which allowed me to move more freely, making it more suitable for daily wear with a pair of cowboy boots (which is how I styled it) or flats.

LOVE this so much
My closet is full of staud, so I am familiar with the cuts and sizing … which is why I ordered a small. Though boxy, the fit was perfect on my 5’3”, 109 lb, 32D frame. I wore it with high waisted slim fit 501’s, and ballet flats and got A TON of compliments. I did tuck in only the front of the blouse, so my frame was still visible. It’s such an effortless piece - I may actually purchase.

Perfect for the petites!
This is one of the cutest dresses I've ever rented! It came brand new with tags, which meant it wasn't dingy or stained. I thought it fit TTS. It is net, with a somewhat open weave, so was a little see-through, which didn't bother me. I wore pasties and nude underwear and called it a day. I received so many compliments, it was hard to return it. But the reality is that it's not something I would wear on a regular occasion.

Just ok
I thought I'd love this, but every time I tried to wear it I ended up changed (once even buying a new shirt). The cut, pattern and color just didn't go with my frame and coloring. So cute, but not for me.

I love this dress. Got so many compliments. Color is perfect for winter. Only problem was that it was too long and my 3" heeled boots kept getting stuck in the hem!!

Just NO
As much as I really wanted to love this and go for the oversized look, the XS was way too big. Nothing about this was attractive on my frame. The whole "three-year-old-girl-in-her-father's-overcoat" look isn't really my vibe, so I bypassed wearing it and returned immediately.

Much cuter on
I thought the shirt was a nod to disco era and it's that and then some. I initially got it to go with a pair of black lyrics pants and ended up wearing this with a maxi skirt and my favorite pair of old Levi's. It's so cute on! Very good holiday.

Not for me
I saw this shirt and all of the reviews had me really excited about wearing it. However, to me, it's actually quite plain and boring when it's on. The print washed me out and did nothing for me. I think the fabric, cut and the print kind of swallowed me up, ultimately resulting in me never wearing. Not the shirt for me.

Just OK
Tried to wear these many different ways and was generally underwhelmed. They’re pretty TTS, but the rise is a bit short for the size and for a high waisted style. That notwithstanding, they still fit with plenty of room. Even though they fit with room, the button must have been stretched-out and refused to sit flat and the zipper puckered in an odd way.

Such a trendy addition to a fall wardrobe. Goes with virtually everything. Pretty structured and quite warm. Can look frumpy if not styled properly.

LOVE this dress …
I ordered a small because it’s white and I thought better to be a smitdge too big than wear a tight white dress … this was overwhelmingly large and heavy on my 5’3” size 2/XS/24-25 frame. I did wear it for a day event and received many compliments, however I felt like it stretched a bit and was even bigger on me by the end of the day. I am returning for the XS to see how that works. For reference, I usually wear an XS in Sandro dresses.

Swimming (in an XS) in the winter!
Loved the idea behind this tunic, unfortunately I think the tunic is lacking in proper execution. I could see this working on someone tall and/or someone who can fill the material. Unfortunately, there was just too much material for my frame - even the hemline of the sleeves hit 1/4 of the way down the side of my arms. It just looked sloppy and, at best, hobo-chic, with a very liberal use of the word "chic". (Measurements are 5'3", 34D, 25" waist and 36" hips).

So cute, but SO large ...
I got the size small and was literally swimming in these pants. They were long, which I figured would be the case, and would have been OK with a 2.5" heel. Overall, the pants were just too big for me and all of the material swallowed me up. The waist was huge, the legs were huge - and not in a flattering, effortless way. The pants are so cute. I might try the XS when avail. For reference, I am 5'3", wear size 2/4 or 25/26 jeans with 25" waist and 34" hips
