Big and small at the same time
I will start by saying I am in love with my items even though they aren’t “perfect” for my body type. However, they are the best and most comfortable clothes for what I’ve been looking for. Let’s start with the tops. Have 36 DDD’s, I figured no way these would fit me. Tops with built in bra shelves usually end up halfway across the ladies with areas sticking out the elastic bottom. (Sorry for the visual). However, I have a bit of a belly (5’5 170 with all that weight in the belly- again sorry for the visual). So I ordered the large. Plenty of room (almost too much!) in the chest area! This was a first! I would have liked that to have been a bit tighter for extra support. The belly area fit good (so I think it would be baggy on a thinner person), but the length was on the short side. Paired with the happy hour pants, I feel like I’m giving a backside show. So to summarize tops, a bit big in the chest, lacking length. The happy Hour pants and hot yoga pants both run large. I ordered larges due to the belly. They were very big… in waist and hips. Ordered mediums, not much smaller. But I kept them because I was waiting so long to wear the whole outfit, and I haven’t been a small in 20 years!! The maxi dress (large) also big in the chest (medium I believe would be too tight in the … you guessed it… belly). What do I absolutely love even though these aren’t 100% perfect fits??? The full length duster/robe/jacket!! It pulls it all together. This is a large, and the only item where the chest could be bigger. I’m not a huge writer of reviews. Rarely do I do this. But I APPRECIATE USA made clothes and smaller designers. The ideas are theories are all here… in a trendy and comfy line. I write this selfishly because maybe others find these issues and the company may expand with different sized shelves. I look forward to buying more of these clothes. Btw- I’ve washed (cold) and tumbled dried the dress and long robe about 3 times now. Seems to be good quality!!! My best, Susie in the big apple
