Classic but different

I loved this so much I bought it! The neck is a little small. But the rest fit my curves like it was made for me! It’s pretty thick but still comfortable.

Super fun dress!

I would've bought it if it was cheaper. I'll certainly rent it again. I paired it with a corset belt to give it a little styling. It worked well for my Wicked outfit. I got lots of compliments in this dress. For the ladies with bigger chests like me, it's a little tight in the chest. I struggled buttoning the top buttons.

Fun dress giving witch/western vibes in a good way

This dress just works somehow. The skirt is full and definitely gave me prairie/country western vibes with a hint of wicked witch from the all black, but the overall fit was great and very flattering on me. All the vibes it was giving me just made it more fun to wear. The collared shirt top portion made it perfect for the office. I'd rent again.

Basic but fabulous

This dress is simple but amazing - the skirt is just a bit fuller than a typical boring shirt dress, and the zig zag dropped waist makes it more fashion. Tons of compliments. It’s voluminous but actually runs relatively small, I found a the sleeves a bit short and the entire shoulder/sleeve was quite fitted.

Hocus pocus vibes

Honestly quite flattering and structured in person. Pic doesn’t do it justice. Perfect for a Monday in the office (gotta do all black to mourn another week).

Cute take a on black dress

I wish it had been a little shorter but it was unique. Loved the shape but had a hard time styling. If it had been a bit warmer (wedges) or colder (tall boots) then it would have been no problem.

Classy and Stylish

Wore this to an industry holiday party, and got lots of compliments. Loved the pockets and drop waist. I wore a black tank top underneath as it was a smidge small on top and had some gapping at the buttons, but you couldn’t tell with the tank.

Betty Draper could never

This is the most flattering dress of all time. It perfectly nips in your waist and then flares out beautifully. Crisp cotton material holds its shape so you get a lot of volume in the skirt. Perfect for tall girls

A little tight in the arms/chest, but I have broad shoulders in general. Great fit everywhere else.

Surprise hit!

Want expecting to like this as much as I did! Flattering and comfortable and got lots of compliments! Styled with a black Isabel Marant belt and black boots. I usually dont love getting cotton dresses from RTR (sometimes fading and wrinkles) but this one was ok. Great dress - a sartorial workhorse

Absolutely loved this dress. I had to rent in a size larger than my TTS, and I WISH I would've waited for my size. This dress is very flattering and professional, while still being cute!

I loved how different this is and I loved the flare of extra material. Clean cotton material with top like a shirt. Very unique and fun to wear. Didn’t buy because I have too many black dresses 🤣

Pretty

I probably could have gone down a size in this dress. There is a lot of material in the skirt. The collar has good shape and is easy to wear popped up. Overall it is a good piece.
