Great in theory but didn't work on me
The dress is a cute color and a cool cut, but the neckline just didn't cooperate.

So flattering and easy to wear!
This dress has all the benefits of your standard boring work sheath (easy to wear, adaptable, work appropriate) while also having some very cool and fashionable details. I wore it for a couple work events and a tv appearance and got tons of compliments. Definitely renting this one again!

So comfy!
So comfy and flattering, which is something I almost never say about looser pants! Would have bought them if not for the lack of pockets, which drove me nuts.

Cute but not great for bigger busts
When I first tried this dress on I thought I'd be wearing it a ton. The cut is so flattering for an hourglass figure and the color is really sweet (almost too sweet!) and it's super comfy. But if you have a larger bust (I'm a DD), it's hard to make the neckline lie properly. I spent the day flip flopping between having the waist in the right place (which meant the boobs of the dress started about halfway up my actual boobs) or having my boobs in the right place (which meant it became veeeeeery low cut). Decided to send it back after one wear, but I might try it again for a non-work occasion.

Extra but cute
There's really no way around it: you'll look like you're a dancer in Hamilton. It's basically a corset with decorative sleeves, and the way it's cut means you feel pretty exposed without actually showing any cleavage. I'm not really sure where or when I'm gonna feel comfortable wearing this, but it is a gorgeous and well-constructed (and very expensive-feeling) shirt. I may just wear it when I have friends over this weekend and then send it back.

Perfect dress for my engagement party!!
I was worried the neckline on this was too modest to flatter my figure, but it was perfect. Tiny in the waist, so it might run small if you're not particularly hourglass-y. It can technically accommodate a regular bra, but mine looked sooooo much better with a boob tape situation--the back is satin, so any lumps from the back of your bra are super visible. The shape of the skirt is so classy and flattering and the fabric all feels really high quality.

Dramatic, romantic dress perfect for curves
I wore this to a fancy Halloween party, and it made me feel amazing. It's a simple dress, but the fit is perfect on an hourglass or hippy figure, and the high-low hem makes it interesting. I loved the way it moved on me and the high front hem made it easy to dance in. I think this dress would flatter most figures, but it's definitely meant to suit curves!

Amazing
The event got cancelled, which is only upsetting because the dress was perfect. You'll feel like a princess.

Literally could have worn this every single day
I have a tough time loving baggy tops, because of years spent worrying I looked fat if i didnt emphasize my waist. This sweater amazed me. It looks so good, and it's so comfy and chic. I think i wore it 10 times in two weeks.
