Fun
Hippy-ish and colorful. Cute cut. Ended up being cold out so i ended up struggling with what to wear over it. shorter in back, for me.

Felana Dress

Tight arm holes
I'm extra heavy now, but I've always been broad shouldered. This cut into my front underarm painfully. I still wore it all day, with a buttoned suit jacket over it. I also didn't realize that the shiny material in the photo was sequined. Jacket covered all that, and it looked very nice under the jacket. Forgot to tie a photo. Was long enough to get away with it at work.

Comfortable. Slimming.
Nice fit / shape, but not too tight or at all clingy. Fabric made it more casual / funky, less over dressed / conservative

I ordered too small. Would like to try next size up.
Snug fitting and stretch. Layers and patterns hide things. Unfortunately, I find myself in sudden need to size up, in general, and had to send it back without wearing it.

I ordered too small. Would like to try next size up. great lines - Although the fabric on the white part seemed many had spilled. It had been cleaned, and I felt like I might be able to get away with it for the day. However, the dress was in no condition for purchase.

The Philo Shirt
TY-LR
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 205lbs
Bust: 36D
fits, mostly. Would rent again.
Handkerchief fold hemline was noted by others throughout the day. Not a perfect fit for me, but a good dress that probably works well on many. It had the little points at the hip seam that bother me a little on dresses. I liked the thick texture of the fabric. Did find myself pulling it down, repeatedly, as work is a bit conservative, but I was able to feel like I was getting away with it. I tried with Spanx, but in the end, it looked better without pinching and rolling under layers. I'm newly wearing this size, so I can't speak to whether this is normal fit for size.
