Classy and conservative
Great fit. Would buy except with the lining this is way too warm for Hawaii. Flattering but not revealing - would work great in a conservative corporate environment

Too casual for work, but fun
Loved the color, for and fabric weight. Would buy except I won’t dry clean casual clothes and this was not a work dress.

Color is a tough
This was oversized on me. Fabric was smooth and a good weight, but the color was essential skin tone on me so not a good choice for English skin

Too short waisted for my long torso
Color - great. Print - fun but subtle enough for work. Fit - overall shape was flattering, but DVF doesn't accomodate those who are long waisted

Too short waisted for a longer torso
I have a longer torso than DVF designs for, so I won't be renting this designer again (my natural waist is 2 inches below where she designs). Print/colors also ended up looking muddy and too busy in my Zoom calls.

Great color, fit is challenging
Color - loved. Fabric - comfortable on the skin and really lightweight. Fit - vee in torso end up showing cleavage if I leaned over and way too much fabric in waist and hips for an hourglass shape.

Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 142lbs

A bit shapeless
Fabric - lightweight. Print - fun but a bit too fun for work. Fit ended up being shapeless with at least 4 extra inches of fabric so not good for an hourglass figure.

Floral Shirtdress
Osman Yousefzada x RTR
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 142lbs
Bust: 34F
True to size and color
Good weight denim, but that made me wish they didn't have cargo pockets because who wants that on denim? Color was nice stone/light gray. Higher rise, but not '70s high. Runs true to size, meaning the 10 was a bit big and likely the 8 would have been a bit small. Fun to try, but not a long-term purchase for me.

Photos and comments from other reviewers are on point
Color is exactly as pictured. Neckline is deep and not work appropriate without a cami. Size L fits great through chest and waist for me BUT that means the sleeves are a couple inches long. And this hits just at the waist, so shows tummy every time I raise my arms. Fun to try but not a keeper for me at my age (but if I were 15 years younger with a flat stomach!)

Pink V-Neck Sweater
Esteban Cortazar x RTR
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 142lbs

Runs small and not suited for a tummy
M was a size too small for me. I had both over-the-top cleavage and a lot of pulling at the waist. Better suited for a less hourglass figure and a flat stomach.

Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 5"

Bust: 32DDD/E
Baggy thru the waist
Fit is work appropriate through the bust. Great pockets. But the very loose cut through the waist makes it look shapeless if unbelted. I had at least 4 inches too much in the waist even for a work appropriate dress
