No need to size up!
It's oversized without needing to go up. I should've got a medium but went with the large. Still cute, but I might've bought it if it fit better .

Uncomfortably low and wide neckline
We were on nipple watch all night. Kept having to fidget and look down and adjust.

I should've stayed true to size
I got the large, it was too boxy. Should've gone with medium.

Wanted to like, too little fussy too frumpy
Was hoping to have this as an easy lounging dress but a little glam. Nope. It wrinkles super easy, like right after ironing. The blousy look was nice with cinched waist, but then the arm holes pulled your arm down. Totally not easy, breezy. Didn't even wear
Yellow Drawstring Shirtdress

Usual Size: 6

Terrible for pear / hourglass shape
Fabric is nice and was easy to pull in for a jumpsuit. The fit was terrible! No room for my hips, booty or thighs (usually size 6-8), then baggy and so unflattering in chest / waist area (usually size 4-6). Rented the 8. Big bummer.

Cute, but way too short, hello booty
Got this for everyday summer wear, about 7 months pregnant and looked so comfy. Fits great everywhere except the length. Way too short, and i like short dresses. Rented a large in hopes it'd be longer after reading reviews... still too short. I'm 5'5, long-ish torso.
Flouncy Sleeve Dress
See by Chloé
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 34B
Not good for baby belly
Thought this would be chic for an evening work event at the end of my second trimester. I should have sized up one or even two sizes, this fit small everywhere. Was too short on me, and way too tight to wear / yes it's a stretchy material but the pocket pinched up and the length hiked up with the stretching.
Black Nika Shift Dress

Statement work party dress
Great dress and look. Wore it for a work Benefit, needed to look like a boss, but could have some fun with it. Was great - very bright, easy to spot me. Thick material, giving at the hips with the A-line shape. The only detractor was the off the shoulder elastic was a bit tight. After 4+ hours it actually gave me a little bruised feeling. Still looked amazing though.
Vermillion Red Structured Crepe Dress

Easy summer everywhere dress
Loved this dress, do wish it were a little shorter in the hem - it hit right above my ankles (I'm 5'5) The open back was amazing and comfortable and edgy. I used my own black belt - the striped belt I didn't like, not enough contrast. Looks great with espadrilles, but I also wore sandals for super casual errands.
Black Striped Maxi Dress

Forgettable dress, not flattering on me
Thought I'd love this for an easy work to casual day dress. The fit, cut and pattern just didn't work for me. Looked shlumpy instead of polished and easy.
Stripe Draped Front Dress

Awesome color pop, snug tho
Wore this to black tie wedding and it felt gorgeous. The dress was great shape, material. The only negative is that it shows a littl belly pouch no matter what since it's so snug. But still flattering, great hourglass/bootie shape. Length on the 4R was perfect for me (5'5" ish plus maybe 3" heels).
Pink Millbury Gown

Gorgeous leather, a little boxy tho
Rented this to take on vacation in cooler weather. Was a gorgeous material, loved the feel. The fit though was a little boxy. Planned to wear with more skirt/dresses but was unflattering on some silhouettes. Best with pants, or simple, slim dresses. (Medium was too long to look good with A-line dresses/skirts.)

Fun dress for day/night formal event, some issues
I wore this to a red carpet event that started In the summer afternoon. Got a lot of positive reactions, although I may have been a little too fancy for the occasion or the crowd. Was a great daytime formal dress, color and cut made it fun and light enough for sunny afternoon. Pockets were great. High low hem beautiful for showing off shoes, although it dragged in the back like a train. Fit was ok, the waist was a little high on me so I needed thick belt to make it look lower. I felt it widened me at the waist and hips with all the thick fabric, so had to be careful about angles in photos. The pink color was iffy in photos too, gorgeous irl. The fabric was thick and pulled easily. My dress was in ok shape, with spots on the dress already showing quite a bit of wear, this kind of dresses don't seem to be made for many repeat wears. Zipper was difficult but not impossible.

Comfy, colorful, loose
This dress felt great on, not sure exactly how flattering it looked. I wore mostly with nude flats for professional casual days at work. Colors are amazing. The dress itself is a little sheer so I wore a slip underneath. Easy to wrinkle, by the end of the day I had horizontal create lines all over from sitting and driving. Nice and cool dress too, great for warm summer weather.

Comfy and fun, but unflattering
Was looking forward to this for a summer, black tie wedding but the shape and fit of the skirt didn't work for me. Even though the waist fit great, the skirt was bulky and super wide at the hips. I felt huge.
