This dress was very cute. I am a 38/DDD and I was able to forego a bra which usually doesn’t work for me, but this dress was extremely well made and the boning in the corset was really supportive. The fabric in the skirt could have been a little bit “less” but overall really enjoyed wearing this out with my husband on vacation and the fit was as described!

Loved this dress - wore it with tennis shoes around town and then dressed it up with heels for
Dinner. Nice that it has pockets!  Plenty of room in the chest.

Full burst and slimmer wait is a perfect fit

This dress is so beautiful! It's a light yet substantial enough cotton, so it'll keep you cool in the summer while still holding its shape. I wore it to an outdoor fashion show and got a ton of compliments throughout the night. The fit was perfect, and the bust stayed in place without me having to tug on it at all. I had to adjust the sleeves every so often, but that was just a personal preference and a result of moving around. I would ABSOLUTELY rent this one again. I wasn't a fan of the self belt, but I was able to tie it and tuck it under another belt to complete my outfit.

Got an XL because I am between L and XL typically, XL was fine but could have also done a L. Very flattering and a great length on a tall frame; hit right at my knee. Would rent again. Wore on vacation in Puerto Rico. 

The dress was beautiful. I wore it on Easter Sunday to church and brunch. It was so bright and cheerful. Perfect for a spring day.

The dress fit perfectly and I got so many compliments. I opted to wear the shoulders up rather than down, but the shoulders kept wanting to go down. Either way, I felt very comfortable and confident for a night at the museum.

Wore this at 27 weeks pregnant on vacation because I needed something tropical and flowy and breathable.  Pockets are always fun.  Great fabric. No bra needed for larger bust. 

The off the shoulder style with the bright flowers and poofy skirt was great for a nice dinner in Tulum. I didn't love the tie - it wasn't lying flat easily and the bow in front looked kinda sad. The pockets were a plus! 

I wore this for everything, date night, to Mexico on vacation for dinner with my girlfriends and to work. It was comfortable and so stylish. I got so many compliments on this dress 

I wanted something fun and coloful but not too dressy for my 40th birthday daytime plans (Sunday market in Oaxaca) and this dress was perfect. I wore it with toms but you could easily dress it up with heels or sandals for a variety of events (brunch, garden party, summer wedding, etc). You could also wear the sleeves on or off the shoulder. I loved it so much that I've kept it for another month to get at least one more brunch or date night in before the weather turns cold. 

This dress fit great where it needed to and cozy comfy everywhere else. Wore for a fun night out compliments galore!

Loved this dress. I wore it to a June out door wedding welcome dinner. I’m 8 weeks postpartum so I went with the XL. I felt it was very flattering. Not a style I typically go for but so glad I did! Bold fun dress and got a lot of compliments. 

This dress is a perfect spring or summer look. The fabric has a nice structure to it and the pattern and colors are so vibrant. The fit is nice—I can be between a small and medium, and the small fit well and the cut is very flattering/forgiving. 

I wore this with sleeves up for work, but would’ve been just as cute off the shoulder. Fit really well, only complaint is that the tie is sewn on

So flattering and so many compliments. I was worried, but the empire waste helped so much! I felt like a queen.

This pattern was *way* outside of my comfort zone, and I’m frankly shocked at how much I liked the dress. I probably could’ve sized down as the back is stretchy, and then it would’ve been perfectly fitted without a bra. But I added a padded push up bra and all was wonderful! The way that the “off the shoulder” portion is cut, and includes boning, is so flattering and hides armpit fat. 

Had so many ways to wear this dress.  Loved it and was one my son even commented that he liked.  A blazer for work and then easily transitioned for happy hour.

This dress I wore for Easter and a trip to Mexico it fits just right hides the belly and shows of the legs and arms 

True to size, plenty of room in the waist and hips. The sleeves slid down a bit of if I tried to wear them pulled up.

Wore this for a cocktail reception and then on vacation. It’s bright and fun - I received lots of compliments. I only wore the sleeves up (the top hem has rubber grips so it held up well) but it would look cute down too. The smocked back makes it comfortable, but slightly less formal. The belt is attached on one side so it can’t be removed. The belt needed to be ironed to lay flat all the way around, since it came bunched up/with fold creases. It has pockets!
