Pretty color, kind of weird

The dress fit well, and the color is bright but not too much. The sleeves are poofy, but I wasn’t bothered by them.

Thought this was So flattering for my hourglass figure. I work from home and didn’t find it quite comfy enough to wear all day, but a lovey dress.

Poofy sleeves like the 1800s.

The poofy sleeves are much more ballooned IRL than on the model and they dwarfed my petite frame. The material is paper-thin and super wrinkly. I wasn't sure what to do with the grommet tassels on the sides. Tie them in bows? They don't add anything to the dress. The sleeves are more than enough detail. Maybe add a belt and hide the side tie thingies. NSFWinter. I thought this could work for the office, but the sleeves are a bit too much. The 1800s-inspired sleeves made me want to add a black velvet choker with a cameo and lace-up boots, like Laura Ingalls. lol. Pros: The color is gorgeous, and it gave me a tiny waistline.

This dress makes a statement!

I couldn't figure out the side straps but even still so flattering! True to size. The sleeves are huge so be prepared for a statement

Cute

I love a 3.1 Phillip Lim dress because they are very customizable. This one has straps on the side that you can adjust to make yourself snatched. The boning down the dress gives a flattering illusion (elongates and exaggerates the hourglass fit of the dress). Large sleeves with an open neckline. Length can be awkward but appropriate for most environments. My issue is that the fabric is thicker and loud. It actually makes sounds. I don't want that kind of attention lol.

HUGE sleeves

Didn't wear, didn't have the right occasion. The sleeves are real statements, and the shape is great for giving you an hourglass look (or accentuating)

Size up at least 2 times!

This dress is gorgeous, beautiful fabric and designer style. However, the sizing is laughable. I ordered my usual size and it was at least 2 sizes smaller, if not 3. I couldn’t possibly put it on. It’s too bad, because I really wanted to wear it. So giving it 3 stars for the sizing but I want to show its a great dress.

Too much going on

The color is wonderful and the size was exactly right for me. But the poof of the sleeves was overwhelming for me and the straps on the side are just strange and don't lay right. There are also strange strappy things on the back of the dress that are not visible on the model for the dress. Not a fan, wouldn't rent again.

Not what I expected

This dress is cute but the material it’s made of is a little too casual for my line of work, although it could POSSIBLY work during warmer weather.

Just weird. Pockets hit way low. Over the top up top. Color great but not my fit.

If you had a heavier bottom to give it some pop and maybe long waisted I think this fit would be perfect!

Fine for work or church

Great color, but could have had a better cut in the arms to be more flattering. Made me look larger than normal.

Statement arms

Loved that the dress accentuated my smaller waist but disliked how puffy the sleeves are. The dress is a bit louder than I usually wear. I think for a cocktail party it may be fun.

Added a Belt

Dress was cute but the built in ties were weird. I added a wide belt and tucked them under it.
