Cute dress, tight across hips
This is a high quality dress but just very tight across the waist and hips.

Perfect dress
This dress was perfect for me! It has a defined waist, and is cut well for curvy hips or apple shapes. Love it.

Boho cute
You gotta love the boho to love this. For me, too dowdy.

Very short
I loved the idea of this romper, but when I sat down, it basically rode up to bathing suit level. Not for tall ladies.

Super small
Size at least 2 sizes up if you are curvy in the hips

Cute summer dress
This ended up being a little less formal than I expected, but a cute dress. It is SUPER forgiving, as you tie the sides so that you can adjust the bust perfectly.

Top buttons were off
I found this to be a great fit in the torso and hips, but the buttons up top pulled oddly with my chest. I would have had to use double sided tape to get them to lay flat, even though there was room in the chest.

PERFECT summer dress
I would rent this again and twice on Sundays. In fact, I wore it to church on Sunday. It's lightweight but not see-through (I wore nude undergarments but not a slip). As with most cotton dresses, it does wrinkle, but I felt that was not as bad as with other shirt dresses I've worn. Wonderful dress.

LOVED the feel of this top. I received many compliments
I wore it with a black cami underneath - not sure how you could avoid that with larger size busts. It is very slimming, and in size 16 the cut came just below my waist (perfect).

Cute details and nice length
Loved the shape and cut of this. It runs a little small, but I did okay with a 16 (sometimes I need a 16W). However, like so many tops for me, the top is cut too loose and so bras show in the armpits. I wore it with a cardigan, but that sort of ruined the lines.

Weirdly clingy around hips
I loved the color, and the length. The cut however was strangely clingy around the hips. This meant that I looked very thick in the middle. Went back without wearing.

Very form fitting.
I am a 16, but this isn't flattering unless you have a flat stomach and hips. LOVED the pattern and velvet zipper detail

A little too big on top, and heavy fabric for a summer jumpsuit
I wanted so much for this to work, but it was too blousy on top---even with fashion tape, my bra would show in back. Maybe sizing down would have helped. Also it's quite long--I am 5'7" and this was not cropped on me. The fabric is really nice but almost too heavy for summer, given the v neck and open back.

Absolutely love the color and fit of these pants.
Well made pants. They were lighter than I expected in terms of weight, and good for summer. I wore them to work 2 times and then returned. Will rent again!

A little small, nice fabric
Well constructed but I would definitely size up in this one. I normally wear a 14-16, and the 18 was right across my hips/stomach. With serious Spanx I made it work, but a sheath like this should be functional without shapewear.
