Odd proportions
Dress is narrow in the bust and waist but gigantic below waist and in the sleeves. At 5'2" I'd need to shorten this dress at least 10 inches in order to wear with 3" heels. The ruffles on the torso add volume to the bust, if that's something you want. Lightweight fabric.

Size down
This jacket is meant to be loose fitting, but it would look much better 1-2 sizes down.

Easy lightweight dress
True to size, easy to wear with sandals or sneakers. The top few buttons on this particular dress were loose and often opened (hello wardrobe malfunction)

Perfectly classy and sexy
Loved this shirt - wore it with skinny black pants for a sexy outfit and then again with jeans for brunch. Got many compliments from hubby and friends. It draped beautifully on my 36FF. Highly recommend!

Runs large, not mustard yellow
This shirt fit loose on my 36FF bust. The petal sleeves are cute but have a widening effect. Basically, size down. Like other reviews stated, the color is not as pictured. The shirt IRL has a slight greenish hue.

Cute casual dress
This dress was perfect for summer vacation in Portugal. The breezy cotton and loose fit was just right in 100 degree sun! I normally have trouble with button downs due to a large chest (36FF) but was able to wear this dress with a minimizer bra to avoid gaps. My only complaint is that the dress arrived with light stains on the collar.

Beautiful but large
I loved the color and style of this dress, but alas, it didn't work on my 5'2" frame. The hip area (with extra fabric) fell just above my knees - the proportions and length were simply too long for me. I find that Theia sizing runs on the large side, and this was no exception. I rented a size 14 (I usually wear a 14 or 16 dress depending on designer because 36F), and this dress was pretty baggy all around. I agree with other reviewers that this dress probably won't travel well as it came with many wrinkles.

Perfect weekend outfit!
This was a perfect weekend outfit - casual but not sloppy, fluid enough to walk the dog with sneakers but still put together for casual brunch with sandals. My body shape (full chest/apple) is slimmed down with this shift dress! My husband loved this dress as well because when I said I had nothing to wear, he said to just wear "that weekend dress" and boom - done!

Cute day dress
Loved how lightweight and feminine this dress was, and super easy to wear with black sandals, pumps or drivers and a black cardigan. I had to check and adjust the buttons occasionally as my chest is disproportionately large and would pull at the button area. Would rent again!
