Loved it! But too small.
I tired the L and XL. Neither fit on the top half. V sad because it is a beautiful dress.

Ran big, stripes in the wrong place
My experience same as other reviewers, but dress ran big on me. But the stripes were in the wrong place so was not as flattering as it could have been.

Holds shape, no wrinkles and perfect length. What's not to love. I've rented the same top in other colors.

Static Struggle
I might have enjoyed this dress more if I’d been able to wear it with bare lags. I used anti-static hairspray to get through the day, but it was a struggle. Copy on all the other reviews: cozy, warm, lightweight, not super flattering but not unflattering. I wore it to a funeral.

Did not wear, trim trouble
The trim along the top kept flipping up in an unflattering way. Well made dress otherwise and I can see how it would be great for others.

Snappy Struggle but Pretty
Snaps that run under the arm did not stay snapped for me. I wore it anyway and just kept my arm down because I needed the dress and it is pretty. Dress has snaps, a hook, zipper, and buttons. Those who remember the Dressy Bessy doll may appreciate a trip down memory lane as they feel like a life size version. .

Dress did the impossible; NSFW low cut while also flattening my bustline. Wore it with a black camisole anyway and thought overall it looked ok.

Not for winter
It's a fun easy-going bag. I rented it in the winter, though, and, due to having on a winter coat, could not get it up on my shoulder. Ended up carrying it which looked ridiculous. Win some lose some. The bag is nice enough, I just wasn't crazy for it.

Boxy for sure
Boxy doesn't always work for me because of my wide shoulders but this coat did. It's warm and comfortable. I wasn't as in love with it as other reviews but did enjoy wearing it.

Flashes of white lining
Loved the dress. It seemed to me the white lining took away from the overall effect and prevents the dress from being right for “dress up” events.

Low in the back, and love it.
I’ve rented twice. Larger size hangs better on me. Due to low cut back I had to add a t-shirt for work. Obviously, dress looks better without the T but the low back might be something to consider. Lots of fabric so might be hard to pack. I love the dress though.

Generous lower half. Fun vintage vibe.
Fit well on top, but the lower half was too full on me thus not especially flattering. Heavy fabric did not wrinkle and held its shape, so it hung well enough to wear for a work day. Heavy dress so might not be great for travel.

Fun sleeves!
I adore tops with fun sleeves. These sleeves hit just before the wrist and billowed out more than I expected which I was happy about. Fabric a bit stiff so not a cozy wear. Tucked in pretty well but did have some extra fullness at lower back. I didn’t try it untucked. Guessing that would work well.

I wore the shorts several times even though they were not especially flattering on me. They are the wide boxy cut which is cute. V comfortable and well made.

Love the lining
Lining smoothes and makes the see through fabric appear to be see through but not Actually see through. Is a bit on the heavier side so might not be great in hot weather.

Due to the slightly see through fabric and low neckline I wouldn't wear to work. I enjoyed it for easy everyday. Lightweight and wrinkle free so good for travel.

Softy, cozy, but too oversized for me.
Wore it casually. The arms were way too big on me which is saying something because my arms aren't small. Just too big so it looked just ok.

Fun vibe but not cozy
Received lots of compliments on this bright low v sweater. The v was lower than I expected and the material is sort of stiff. The fabric holds it shape though, which is great. I wore it with jeans. Enjoyed it so much I kept it for a while.

Tight in chest big in the shoulders
Great colors. Not too hot. Weird combination of low cut and tight in the chest. I think the problem was that , for me, the shoulders were too big and so it hung oddly. I liked it anyway.
