Perfect
Fit perfectly, a little stretch, but not too much.

Something different
Lovely fabric - silk was warm and breathable and I liked that it was a little different than the usual. Looked great on. Fit was a little odd. Despite the voluminous fabric, the inner piece was a bit tight in the chest. Due the the amount of extra fabric swirling around you, dont plan to do anything near a sink or a stove while wearing this shirt.

Pretty, but runs big
The fabric and cut of this shirt are very nice and it looked good, but even the XS was a bit too big on me. It bulged slightly in the back because my torso is not long enough to fill it out.

They fit!
These pants actually fit me... They have a lot of stretch so i was happy that they were small enough to fit my waist and had enough give for my butt.

Well made, well shaped
This is a beautifully made shirt. I normally do not wear tops that aren't fitted because the fabric swallows my small frame. The way this shirt is constructed it drapes perfectly so that it complements your figure instead of hiding it. For the other petite hourglass women out there, this is a good one.

Warm and cute
This is a warm sweater that has a chunky knit. It has a loose, boxy fit, but as you can see it the model picture it is structured so that it falls a bit longer in the front. It also has forced slouchy shoulders with a seam along the back which I found irritating. Petite may find the sleeves a bit long. Overall, very forgiving and easy choice for an office sweater.

Fit notes
Shimmery, sturdy fabric, well made. I usually wear size 2-4 and am 5' tall. The length was great and it was a perfect fit at the waist. I could not fit my chest into the top. This dress will not fit above a D cup.

So dramatic and dangly
I loved these earrings (was a mystery bling) . They have a lot of sparkle and look incredible with a vibrant blue dress. I was sad to have to send them back with my dresses. They are bigger than they look in the picture.

Not for petites
This dress is a great color and fit except for the very long and bulky strap around the neck. I had 4 inches of extra fabric around my neck because the distance between my neck and my chest is not long enough for the dress. That detail that looked awesome on the model looked crazy on me. I found that the XS was a little tight and the S was a little big(plus more neck)

Pretty dress, almost fit
This dress is great for a petite figure, but only if you are c cup or below. At 5' it hit me a bit above the knee and it was very flattering, clinging to curves, but not too tight. (Size 2)

So many compliments
Very pretty dress, but there is no bra in my wardrobe that I could wear with it. Loved the pattern which is bright orange and white. It hit just above my knees and I'm 5 ft tall.

Hmmm
Okay, I really liked the necklace they picked, but I didn't wear it with the dress I rented because I felt like it didn't match well. The dress was white and blue; the necklace is ivory. I wore it the night before with a different outfit. I give it an A for style, but a C for matching.

Big and Bold
This is a great, go anywhere necklace. It doesn't look like much in the picture, but when it's on you really feel almost regal, even if it's kind of a casual piece with no sparkle. Because of its size I thought it looked best when paired with a very plain outfit. It can be overwhelming otherwise.

Beautiful dress – forgiving fit
I rented this dress in a 4 and a 6 and ended up wearing the 6 to accommodate my enormous chest. (it’s not easy being a nursing mom) It does have a built in bustier, but anyone over a C will probably need to wear a strapless bra. The waist had a lot of room in both sizes which may interfere with the built in support as it secures just below the ribcage. That said, My short torso still filled up the top of the dress which made it hang differently than it would on someone who is more straight. The fabric is beautiful and the cut would flatter most shapes. You could see the quality of the materials and workmanship.
