Beautiful easy to wear strapless
Fit perfectly. I'm 161 lbs. I never had to worry about it slipping down. Yes the dress is long. I'm 5'6" and it touched the floor with 4 inch wedges. Silky soft and great movement and color.

Ok top but wrinkly
Didn't love how wrinkly the cuff of the sleeves were. Fit was good and it matched since it's white but I think I was expecting something a little higher end.

Too much mermaid to pee
Was too tight on my hips to pull up to pee. Had to unzip the entire gown every time and not easy to zip down or up up by yourself. Also could barely walk and stairs were an issue. Really needs a slit. Was bummed to be so constricted at a fun wedding.

Win-Win backpack that doesn't look like a backpack when you carry it as a purse
Color is neutral and straps don't look like backpack straps which is nice. Absolutely gorgeous bag with some serious thought that went into designing something that was elegant but still utilitarian. Roomy, zips closed at the top, and has an outside pocket for a phone and whatnot.

Beautiful but was too form fitting for me
Was a little too difficult for me to pull off due to having a bit of a pooch post partum. This designer sucks you in but even that magic wasn't enough to do it for me this time. Rented another red dress that was a little more forgiving in the midsection.

A showstopper with Spanish Flair
This was a showstopper. I should have worn an 8, but it wasn't available. It was impossible for me to get the zipper up past midway myself so I had to have help. Still even a little tight, the dress looked great and smoothed out some imperfections with the ruffle. Well made, great fabric, vibrant true red, lays nicely.

Expensive looking piece, no damange
Great undamaged piece that looked expensive with a formal dress. Wore this to a wedding in Downtown in LA. No visible wear. I have smaller wrists and this fit well.

Statement piece finishes an outfit
Stunner little bag that finished my outfit - a red spanish style ruffle dress worn to a black tie optional wedding. Big enough to fit my iphone X without its case, credit cards, and lip gloss.

Statement dress made of Sunshine
This dress was really beautiful on, with luxe fabric and a longer hemline. It was a bit tight to zip up so I would say it ran a little small. Great with red lipstick and recommend a heel to balance out the length of the skirt. Looked expensive in this at the wedding shower I wore it to.

Hippy on the handles
This really accentuated my love handles to the point that I immediately ripped this dress off as soon as I put it on. Yikes. Also, ran small and was tight in the bodice. I sized up but not enough to make this work. Also, the small allover print made me feel larger. I think a larger flower print would have been more flattering.

So long so shiny
This was waaay too long to be flattering on me and waaay too shiny. I felt dated and like I was blasting into the early 2000s here. No bueno.

Knockout Cut and Color Combo
This dress was hot hot hot. The cut and fit are stuff of dreams. Really flattering in the front with the ruching and the flap of fabric that lays over the tummy area. I'm small busted and my strapless bra did show in the cutoff area at the top so I folded it under a bit. There was no way I was going braless to the company holiday party. Red favors the warmer orange family if that matters to you but I feel it's very flattering.

Professional and Comfy to wear all day
Thanks to the soft fabric this was much more comfortable to wear than many blazers for a full day of work. The hair detail was a little out of control when I received it but I guess that's the look of this. I like the quilted fabric but it did get called a sweater by one of my coworkers so not 100% polished look, slightly more relaxed. Great buttons. Pretty cropped so super tall girls get ready for that.

A Hot mama in this structured dress
The construction was absolutely gorgeous and flattering. It nipped my waist in and the one shoulder was nice on my somewhat broader shoulders. It was comfortable to wear with a little give. The length is longer than most dresses but that gave it a little something extra, more slimming and sexy.

Great work blazer that is tailored/fitted. Looks good buttoned and unbuttoned. Roll up the sleeves.
Runs small. Don't feel insecure going up a size.

So tight
I should have ordered a 10 and I've never even worn a 10 before so there was no way to know. I'm a 6 and went up to 8 bit even that was not enough. Fabric pulled over my hips and crotch. Couldn't lift my arms and couldn't zip myself in without assistance.
