Front pocket location weird
They fit fine but the front pocket flaps button in a zone where stretch is required. I couldn't button them shut so tucked the pocket flap into the pocket, and it just felt bulky.

A little short when tied at my waist. Thin string holds it up at waistband which isn't the most comfy.

Soft, sexy
I enjoyed wearing this in the evenings at home, just relaxing and feeling sexy (my man liked it). It’s not itchy and I’m sensitive. The double layer of quality knit smooths our more abundant areas and feels protective.

Super flattering
Neckline is lovely and the true princess seams—meaning NO waist seam—makes it skim very nicely. I hate waist seams because everyone’s waist is in a different place and my torso is long so it always cuts weirdly.

Lots of compliments
I bought it! It had enough stretch in the back which is nice. The straps did get twisted but are adjustable. Needed to iron but once I did, it stayed pretty neat over multiple days on vacay.

Tie waist not as comfy as I thought it would be
I thought a tie waist would be a dream for jeans, as my tummy fluctuates every month, but the weight of the denim pulled them down and dug in.

Comfy with just enough stretch
I got these with the intention to uncuff them so I could actually have full length pants (does no one make those anymore??!! Seriously are companies just selling cropped pants to keep material costs low since the high waist has been back??) They fit my hips and tummy and feel well made. I bought them and uncuffed them—they were stitched up pretty good so if you rent to do that be aware it was hard to untack.

I don’t have super long legs and it was very short. Tight around arm holes. Made of a decent fabric that was not flimsy so A-line shape holds.

Comfy but makes legs look short
I'm convinced that companies are trying to break even with the increase in high waisted pants by making everything cropped. It seems that the only full length pants these days are front-pleats (horrible for my belly). Everything is cropped!! Have we not realized that cropped pants are not very flattering on most regular bodies because they optically shorten legs?!

Must iron or steam, needs slip
I got a lot of compliments on the length and color. It JUST fit and I switched to a thinner bra to avoid the chest gape. It wrinkles easily. It slid up over my butt in tights, and would lay better with a silky slip underneath.

It's culottes!!
I didn't look closely and assumed this was a skirt. I loved that they're actually loose culottes! Was not tight, nice material, could adjust belt for tighter/looser fit. Had to steam it to get rid of creases. Felt very chic and a nice mix of masc/femme.

It's heavy and felt expensive, but I found the inner double collar a little clingy around my neck. Warm enough for fall but prob not deep winter.

Flattering A-line for pear shape
Works w hips. Slinky synthetic material makes it easier to wear without worrying about ruining real silk. The ties around the back were kind of interesting, gives side boob if worn w/o bra.

Flattering for tummy and hips
Pear shaped w long torso. This was flattering and hid the tummy for the most part. The vertical pleating at bust and waist is streamlining but falls nicely over curves. Very Grecian feeling. Lined and can wear without bra. Ties are nice to customize the fit at top. Not much stretch around the waist band but this fit enough for it not to rub or be tight—waist is 31”.

Comfortable and classy!!
You have to get the wrap right: there are really only two buttons that are intended to function—they are at the top, and it twists from there. I belted it on the right side. The bottom half does not button so you will need to wear leggings, opaque tights, or a slip dress under. Good for work. Nice fabric, not scratchy. I wore w combat boots but would look good with heels too.
