Pretty, but hard to wear a bra with
Everything about this dress is great except that its not really made for those of us with a large bust. There is no real way to wear a bra with the keyhole cutout in the back. And from the side, it tented out a little too much for my liking due to my bust. Other than this, the color is beautiful, fabric feels luxurious and the ruffle details make this dress special.

Not sure...
Straps were very long. If I liked it better, it would've been worth it to whip out the sewing kit but the rest of the dress kinda fit too loose and shapeless also. In combination with the color, the whole thing just felt drab. I didn't love it. Not sure if going down a size would be better though.

Great shirt
Kept this for a month and wore multiple times. Very cute with high waisted skinny denim. The sleeves add just a touch of style and uniqueness without the puffiness I was worried about. Fabric is soft and lightweight and perfect for transitional weather. Will rent again.

So short!
I should've paid more attention to the product details - 16" from waist translates to this barely covering my booty! I could probably still get away with this if I was 10 years younger since it actually fits well and is very cute, but at 41 its really too short to be wearable. Too bad.

Cute dress but size up
Really cute and appropriate for a work dinner. I typically wear a size 6 but sized up to a 10 due to some of the previous reviews. It fit comfortably though perhaps a tad too loose... so I think I would've been fine to have just gone up 1 size larger to an 8. Also some of the reviews mentioned the the neckline was too low but I can't say I agree... at least on me the Vneck was just low enough to be flattering but still offered enough coverage. I would rent this one again.

Loved it
Understated yet unique. Fit was very flattering and the silhouette makes my waist look slimmer. I rented this dress twice and finally bought it since I loved it so much. It's a good stable to have in my closet.

Great casual sweater
I sized down to an XS (typically S/M) per the advice of other reviewers and am glad I did. This sweater is cut boxy but that is the style of it and by sizing down, it gave me more of a "shape." Loved it. Great solid fabric, construction. Kept me warm but did not feel heavy. That pop of pink at the neckline kept it fresh, modern, and worked to brighten up my face. Thumbs up.

Nice updated basic sweater/ top
Cute updated versatile top. Loved the tie detail at the shoulder. Some previews complained that the length of the sweater was short but I didn't find that to be the case. I would not recommend that you wear low waisted bottoms with this however, though the length is what I would just call "normal." One other thing to note would be the weave of the fabric.... its not see-through exactly but it's not full coverage either if that makes sense. Like, if someone took a picture with the flash on, you may be able to see your bra. Depending on your level of comfort, you may want to wear a cami underneath though I personally did not and I felt fully covered.

Pretty & comfortable
I had high hopes for this dress and it did not disappoint. This dress just felt expensive; the fabric and details are lovely. Re: fit though I would recommend sizing up... I typically wear a size 6 but got the 8 as a back up based on previous reviews. Glad I did because there is no give in the waist band and 6 was too small. My only other (relatively minor) complaint would be that the armholes are a bit too wide/ low. I felt like I could've used a bit more coverage in my armpit area if that makes sense lol. I was a bit self conscious about the area and had to make adjustments several times throughout the night.

Great dress
I rented this for family pics in the fall but didn't end up wearing it because it was an unseasonably cold day in FL (of course!) I tried it on though just to see and it is so nice! Cut was flattering and just very pretty. I will def be renting this one again.

So cute
Very flattering and comfortable. I went with the recommendation of sizing down to a size 4 from my typical size 6 and it was perfect. Loved this for wearing alone on a super hot day, as well as layered under a chambray shirt with the front tied and worn with white sneakers -- very versatile.

If you are short waisted, go for it
This rode up too high to be comfortable. I'm not sure if the rise is just cut too short or what the problem is, but camel toe is not a good look. Additionally, the open back is more open then the model pic let on. The tie in the back just covers your bra and that's pretty much it, and more of your sides are more exposed than model pic let on. This was felt too juvenile to wear.

Dress worn for date night
Mid weight fabric perfect for transitioning from summer to fall. Ruching on the side and the lines/ design of the lower half of the dress is very figure flattering. Fit very well.

Definitely Size Up
Gorgeous dress but it did not fit. So disappointed. Fabric is thin and also not forgiving so size UP at least 1 size for it to be flattering.

Classy silhouette and neckline that is flattering to most body types. Very forgiving if you are self conscious about your mid section. Highly recommended.

Very cute!
This dress fit true to size, though at almost 5' 7, this dress came a tad shorter on me than I would normally wear. I still really liked it though but just had to remember to be careful. Overall I thought this dress was easy, fun and flattering. The only issue I had was with the buttons where they came undone randomly, especially among the waist area. It wasn't because it was too tight either... I think it could've been due to a combination of the soft material and the size of the small buttons. Still a cute dress though and I would rent again!
