Incredibly flattering & Fun but LARGE

I am very curvy and had to go down one size in order to get a fitted waist.

Run of the mill LBD

This dress was fine. It's fine. Not spectacular. If you want to show off a statement necklace or incredible shoes, this may be the dress for you. I found its proportions to be a bit off. It seemed to fit as intended but the sleeve length and hem were about 1.5" short. I'm a bit taller than average but have never struggled with length before.

Cute & Lightweight

Love a bomber that isn't boxy. On the downside, I only had 65% arm movement.

TIGHT

While this coat was incredibly cute, I couldn't zip it up over my 40E chest in the recommended size with just a t-shirt on as a layering piece. If you need to bundle, or are large chested, size up.

Runs a bit large for ruching

Just an okay dress, not anything memorable. Perfect for boring professional dinners or when you are a supporting character. Most of my dresses with ruching serve to accentuate my form while camouflaging problem areas. This dress was about 1/2 a size too big so the ruching was another layer of fabric without a benefit. I do think going down a size would have been too small since this is not made from a jersey-like material.
