Gorgeous
Fit perfectly. I have an athletic build and this dress was perfect
Two-Tone Twist Gown
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 145lbs
Bust: 36C
Sexy but impractical
Nice fabric and very flattering waistband and slit. Slit also makes it hard to sit properly without showing everyone your undies.
Samara Skirt
Nanushka
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Lovely details and good fit
I liked this jacket but didn't care much for the fabric. The asymmetrical closure is flattering and adds interest. Fits well with a thin shirt or cami underneath.
Black Soft Tailoring Blazer
3.1 Phillip Lim
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Nice fabric but runs small in hips
I could not wear this because it was too tight in the waist and hips. I typically wear a 6 or 8 in dresses, depending on the cut, but this 8 was way too small. I think I would have like it otherwise.
Pinstripe Suiting Trench Dress
Jason Wu
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Nice but not good colors for me
Lovely top with a fitted midriff and soft peplum. I liked it, but the colors didn't work for me.
Alix Top
ba&sh
Size Worn: 2
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
Nice but very short
The print and fabric are nice, but I chose not to wear this because it is very short. It fit beautifully in the shoulders and waist, but just barely covered my belly button. That would be okay for a younger woman, perhaps, but not for me.
Clare Shirt
Nanushka
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 36C
I'm keeping it!
I ordered this and three other dresses as options for a formal event. I chose to wear one of the others because it was more formal than this one, but I love this dress so much I am keeping it! Fits like a glove and the fabric is rich and lovely. I'll be getting some compliments on this one, for sure!

Red Velvet Ruby Dress
Black Halo
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 6"

Love this dress!
This dress was exactly what I was looking for! It fit like a glove and was extremely flattering. Sexy without being revealing, comfortable all night without having to adjust anything ever. Absolutely love it. Glad I chose a bigger size than I normally wear after reading the reviews - my normal size (8) would have been too tight for sure. I'm just under 5'6" and wore 1-1/2" heels and the dress fell to just above the floor. Could have worn higher heels and the dress would still have been a great length.

Black Lace Column Gown
Badgley Mischka

Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 6"

Didn't choose this dress for the event
I ordered three dresses for an event to be sure I would have one that worked; I did not choose to wear this dress. It fit well in the waist and hips, but was far too large in the bodice/chest. Would have been lovely if my chest were larger!
