Looks surprisingly good on body
This is not my normal style at all, and it's basically cut like a giant mumu, but once I added a belt (my own) it looked fantastic. It's one of those rare garments that actually looks good belted despite having lots of extra fabric around the waist. I needed it for a photo shoot with frolicy field vibes and it delivered.

Torso too short, arm holes too short/small, bust tight, waist loose
So, this was not cut for a tall, curvy woman at all. The torso was too short for my 5'10" frame, and I got a wedgie immediately. The bust on the size 6 technically fit, but was too tight to look nice over my 32G situation (squashing!), while the waist was actually sort of loose. Most uncomfortable was how tight the armhole was, not only because it was cut for a much shorter woman so that it the fabric cut high up into my inner armpit, but also because of how tight the bust was. Had considered wearing to a wedding but there was no way I could have had fun dancing all night in this outfit. Too many places it was digging into me. I did wear it for a photo shoot, and I made it work for that, as in I found a way to stand so it didn't look bad, but I was ready to get out of it afterwards because it hurt!

Very fun to wear this dress around town
This dress fit pretty well except for two things. Neither was a deal breaker. I really enjoyed wearing it. The two fit issues were first, tiny bit of tugging at the bust, but not enough to create the dreaded full-bust peep-hole at the bust that you can get with button downs. Also, as I am tall, the waist on this dress was around my rib cage, and I wish it could have been two or three inches lower, it would have been more elongating over my full bust.

Felt so professional and polished in this dress
Great work item, perfect for public speaking as it was comfortable, secure, and both flattering but not tight. Worked very well on my curves, full bust, and narrower hips.

Romantic, fairly relaxed fit, deep cut neck
This fit me a little on the loose side, and I think I might have preferred to wear the size 6 rather than the size 8 that I got. It was cute and romantic, and good for a cocktail party and there wasn't anything too wrong with the way it fit. I generally wear a size six on the bottom and an 8 on the top due to my full bust, and since this was a bit loose overall, I had some trouble sorting out whether or not it would have had enough room for my full bust if I had sized down to the six that would have certainly fit me better in the waist, shoulders, and hips.

Loose comfy work dress
This was a lot looser than I was expecting - but the tie waist fixed that. I am 5'10" and this came just to the top of my shoes in flats. So if you're shorted you'll need heels.

Super tight under the armpits
Cute dress but I couldn't even wear it because the armholes were so tight they cut into my armpits. It fit well everywhere else.

Felt fabulous
This was really nice, high quality, and pretty. Easy fit - straight cut in a stiff fabric but long enough so that even though I am curvy, I didn't feel boxy. Also it is long enough that even though I am tall (5'10") I didn't have to wear high-waisted pants or skirt to avoid a midriff gap, as I so often do with fashion tops.

The dress is just a fun design to wear.
This dress runs VERY short. I am 5'10" and the waist of the dress came to just under my boobs, rather to my actual waist. The shortest part of the skirt was at mini-skirt length on the left side of my legs. The fabric is nice quality and the white cuffs are really fun, but if you're tall, think twice about renting this. To wear it, I had to add a 3 inch wide belt, putting the top edge of the belt at the waist of the dress right under my boobs, which brought the bottom of the belt closer to my actual waist level. Otherwise it looked a bit maternity on me. I also wear a 32 E or 34 DD bra, so in addition to the shortness of the dress, I found that the medium gaped just slightly over the widest part of my chest where the buttons pulled. But not enough not to wear it, particularly once I added the belt, which stopped quite a lot of the gaping.
