Stunning, consider sizing up
I am pretty consistently a 6 in hips/chest and a 4 in the waist so went with the S. Would have liked to compare to a M as I found it a bit tighter than I prefer, particularly the chest/shoulders, but it was still wearable and I was comfortable without a bra. It is very stretchy and was like...6" wide on the hanger. Kind of hard to walk in. But I'd rent it again!

Almost perfect
Received NWT. I would have bought these if they didn't have two issues: (1) I'm 5'6" and the length was just barely long enough for flat sneakers and arguably 1/2" too short - I felt like I saw too much of my socks when I sat down. (2) The seam that runs down the back of the leg causes the fabric to bunch up in an unflattering way right below the rear pockets. Maybe after they're broken in more that isn't an issue, but I kept having to pull at them to smooth out the seat. Otherwise, loved the color and the fit was great - I'm a 4 in the waist and 6 in hips so finding jeans that fit off the rack is rare, but these were just right.

Small in the chest
I rented a M and was only able to button it without serious gaping by wearing a light compression body suit under it that lets me skip a bra (32DDD). I have broad shoulders and those were fine, arms felt a little tight but not enough to notice after an hour or so. Length was right at my natural waist so worked with high rise trousers. I may try the L someday. Buttons are pretty.

Consider sizing down
I liked this jacket enough that I rented the pants (which were a bust for me). If I rented this again, I would size down. I usually wear a six in blazers and jackets to accommodate my broad shoulders and bust size. The size I rented was too big in the shoulders, making it look more "you have the wrong size" than oversized. I did get compliments from someone who is A Fashion Person, though, so what do I know?

Joy!
This is adorable. I am usually in between a 4 and 6 and the S fits--I *might* have been able to get away with an xs because the chest runs large even with a larger chest. I don't usually go for yellows because I'm so fair but they are saturated enough and mixed with enough other colors that it works. Only downside is I wish the fabric were a bit thinner on top. It's more substantial than I was expecting from the draping so I can see this feeling hot. I would get this again and will probably keep it for a while!

Hot tropics
Wore for beach wedding rehearsal dinner. Tons of compliments. It's perfectly loud in the best way. I am a 4 or 6 depending on the cut and chose a S, but probably could have sized down if an xs is available because there was a ton of room in the waist and some extra room in the chest. The ties however made any extra fabric unnoticeable. At the right angle looks like a dress because the legs are so wide. Will rent again and wish I'd had a reason to keep it longer.

Fun and retro but a little big
Rented for a Miami vacation. Did I feel fabulous in this? Yes. Did any *pictures* of me in this dress come out looking nearly as good as I swear I did? No. I'd rent it again for the right occasion but wouldn't buy it, it is a little bit too roomy to be flattering on my proportions. I'm between a 4 and a 6, 32DD hourglass and the xs looked baggy (after returning the S for being far too big).
