This dress fit perfectly. Was a bit difficult to zip up, and needed my 4 y.o. Son to help me, but once it was zipped and on I was in love with the color, and everything. Great professional length and just the perfect amount of v-neck to still feel respectful and beautifully feminine. 

Love Love Love this dress. Fits perfectly. The length is just right, fit exactly as expected and the color is wonderful! I wore to a wedding and to work and received tons of compliments in both places!

It fit really well, perhaps a bit tight around the ribcage, but not uncomfortable.
I received a lot of compliments on it!
I wore it twice for a Christmas party and on Christmas day.

This dress was a bit snug and extremely difficult to get on/off given the placement of the zipper. 

This designer is always a tad on the snug side of any size, but I think this one was a little more so at the hip? Regardless, it's a nice weight and color and was fun to wear! Perfect for work.

I really love the color and the design of the dress.  it's looks great, firm fitting and very flattering. love it. would definitely rent this again. 

Great fit. I generally wear a size 2 and thanks to other reviews, chose a size 4, which was perfect. It's a little tight in the armpits, so be sure to wear antiperspirant. 

Form fitting.  It was tight through the upper body and chest, surprisingly.  Maybe it is just a little extra holiday weight?  I usually size up for this brand with straight skirts, and I probably would for this dress if I ordered again.  I may, it is very cute.

Beautifully flattering cut (princess seams), which means this dress drapes and moves with your body without any awkwardness.



Fit great but too low cut for a work presentation in my opinion. Loved color. 

The fabric is surprisingly heavy, which makes the long skirt hang beautifully.  Had a slight vintage feel overall, which I liked. Note that the collar was wrinkled and didn't want to stand up straight. 

I wore this dress to family photos (this snap was post). I found it to be very trim through the lower waist. I had to wear a couple of pairs of Spanx to keep my belly button from outlining. The size was fine. There was the perfect amount of room in the hips and bust. I wear a 12/14 36D.  It felt like a very original dress even though the fabric and color were subdued, maybe even office appropriate if cleavage isn't an issue for you.  

I received so many compliments on this dress.  It was perfect for my Champions Day at Churchill downs and was comfortable for all the running around and hosting I was doing with media

 If you are a two that likes things to fit, the 0 won't fit without being quite tight, but the 2 is perfect

I wore this to work with a tan braided belt. It looked great - it’s beautifully made and a gorgeous color - but if you are a larger 4, I’d size up. I’m a smaller 4 right now, and I would not have wanted it any tighter for work. Also - not a ton of stretch even though it’s a knit.

this dress fit so well and flowed throughout the evening for me

Gorgeous dress with a retro vibe. Fit perfectly and really accentuated my waist. Kind of low cut for work but I'm small on top, so works for me. Tons of compliments--I just decided to keep it!

Great work dress, heavy fabric. A little big on top, but still worked for a professional look. Would rent again. 

Beautiful color, lovely fabric, lining. Safe for work but doesn't look as Handmaid's Tale as you think from the photos - it's gorgeous! 

Not good for work but might be good for a more formal affair

elegant and flattering fit. I ended up buying this dress from Bloomingdales bc I liked it so much.  flattering and modest for the over 40 set.

A little low cut but very classic looking.  Can be dressed up or down. 

A great dress. Love to wear these for work. They do run small so I always go up a size. I was also an athlete so I have broader shoulders so be prepared to not have full range of motion. 

I wore this dress for an all-day work event and it had comfortable fabric, a little bit of stretch, and the sweetest details - the collar! the sleeve cuffs! I normally wear a 4 and sized up to 6R based on other reviews, and I’m glad that I did. I recommend wearing a wedge or heel with it, the length hit just below my knees.  

Great for. I would rent this size again. Fun dress. 

Nice dress for work, will try again in a larger size. 

Little low cut and was a little snug but it worked for what I needed.

Loved the color. 

Nice piece, wore it multiple time.  It does run on the small side.  No stretch and quite fitted and structured, so I wouldn't call it comfortable, but it looked nice and the quality and tailoring (as usual with Black Halo) is on point. 

Makes a great figure. Feminine and professional.

I read reviews and went with my typical size.   I have a large bust and it was tight across the chest and upper back.   But fit amazing on my wider hips.   Overall I loved it.  V neck was too low for a conservative office but nice for a date, wedding, or less cleavage conscious offices.   

I don’t know why I keep renting Black Halo in the same size and thinking it will fit—no matter what style I choose they never fit!  I couldn’t zip this by a LOT (at least 2 inches gap at my mid-back.  Gorgeous otherwise but just couldn’t even fake wearing this one.  

Runs a bit small, not that stretchy. Did not wear it (too small)

This dress is just a bit matronly. Try as I might I could not love it. It is very fitted through the torso, and runs about one size small. I am at four in the six fit me.

Runs a bit small, unable to wear the size I ordered

I am a 36C and couldn't get it zipped up over my rips. Beautiful dress if you're not too big up top. 

fabric thick with slight stretch, very smoothing.  has a lining which helps as well.
The shoulders were tight which added to not being able to zip, even with help.
