Shibori Midi Dress
Madewell
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"
Tight Waist; Shows Back Fat/Rolls!
Pretty dress; very feminine, even though casual. However, I saw a photo of myself and noticed that the back fat/rolls were PROMINENTLY displayed, which is unusual for my clothing. That killed this dress for me.
Denim Patchwork Midi Dress
Prabal Gurung x RTR
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"
Forgiving While GIVING!
True-to-size fit, gently hugs without clinging or cinching. The attached mid-thigh slip is a lifesaver; I'd forgotten to pack a shaper and the slip covered and slightly smoothed. Also, the midi-length meant bare legs, a wonderful thing for a Summer wedding (where I wore the dress).

It's a cute top...
...and may look great on athletic builds. It may also work for pear shapes.

Elena Dress
MISA Los Angeles
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 12

Don't be like me...
... make sure that you look at ALL views of a garment. I didn't realize the back is partially exposed until it arrived. Otherwise, the fabric is substantive and the colors are vibrant.

SO SMALL
Cute, but? I'm moving beyond wee bags. It gets compliments; it's adorable. I'm glad I rented it!

Figure-flattering
Can be a little snug in feel across ample thighs and bottom. That said? Looks flattering even if you feel a bit concerned.

It's fine. . .
. . . but the neck opening is too wide; you'll need a tank or camisole.

Thought I could wear them in the office. Nope: too long for that, unfortunately.

Nothing special
Lightweight but not as beautiful or exciting as some of the other RTR shades. I'm a bit surprised. Maybe I'm not a Gucci girl, lol.

It's cute, but?
It looks like either a maternity dress or milkmaiden's uniform on my body type, lol. It won't wrinkle, which is GREAT. I'd hoped to wear it on vacation, but? It's not flattering enough and the material may be a bit too sweat-inducing in a tropical clime. This will look cute on someone else, I'm sure. I almost liked it for me, but? The elastic was a bit too flattening across my bust.

Not My Style
I thought it would be cute; it was more matronly, oddly. I returned it quickly, as it may be someone else's fave.

Supersoft Fair Isle Turtleneck
J.Crew
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 12

One-stop shopping dress: you don't need much more than this classic, one-zip look.
Tight; don't gain too much weight! That said, it hides small sins and is forgiving, once you get it on, lol.
