Nice Multi-Seasonal Dress for Work

This is a nicely designed dress for a pear shape. The ruffles add femininity to an otherwise menswear inspired print. I could see adding a long-sleeve tee/turtleneck and boots/booties to take this dress through all seasons. It's a little low cut without securing it with fashion tape or pinning. Add a decorative fashion brooch (Chanel) on the lapel for extra touch of style.

Stunning Color. Runs Large.

I'm going to have to try this one again in a size smaller. The blue is truly beautiful and the fabric is quite heavy and very good quality. It's low cut; but a beautiful scarf would take care of that for work/church.

Beautifully Designed; But Not a Perfect Fit For Me

I really liked the alternating cuts and fabrics of this dress, which look very luxe in person. However, it was too baggy in the top to make it work for my pear shape, so unfortunately I did not wear it. Too low cut for work; but would be stunning for a night out.

Very Flattering and Youthful Look

Wore on vacation. Loved everything about this pretty, feminine top except for it's proneness to wrinkles. Still would like to rent again for summer.

Stylish Vacation/Resort Wear

Comfortable, casual dress with nice strapped detailing in back. Was perfect for bouncing back and forth between resort club level and park activities at Disney. Would rent again for vacation.

Sophisticated Dress

Styled like a coat dress, featuring quality, weighty fabric. It is held closed by only 3 hidden buttons & a trench-like belt at the waist that makes for a deeply cut top & a moderately high slit in the skirt. I styled w/a cami & think a long sleeve tee or turtleneck would look great in winter also. I didn't have any problem w/the skirt being too revealing as there is an extra layer of fabric in the part of the skirt that crosses over that can be manipulated when sitting. Tights in winter would create additional modesty.
