Beware: "exposed front button down placket" and wrinkles easily
So first, there are holes down the front of the dress and I can't for the life of me understand why a double vertical peep-show is something anyone would want. In order to combat the "exposed front button down placket" I paired it with a turtleneck and leggings which ended up looking odd. It also wrinkles really easily. The pro is it's a good length and the design is cute. I'd recommend only if you have an appropriate slip and will be standing while wearing it.
Button Front Garden Dress

Size Worn: 18R
Usual Size: 18
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 240lbs
Bust: 38D
Unfortunately small
Rented to wear to work, but the sizing and shape is super odd. The waist and arms were too constrictive although I could get it on, it would have been a nightmare to wear all day. It would be amazing in a fabric with more give but it's not worth trying for a bigger size since the cut was so odd.

Shorter than expected
I liked the style much more in the photos than when I tried it on. The arms closures were a little on the snug side but I could have managed if the shirt was just a few inches longer. Returned without wearing.

Cute but low cut
I chose this for work but it was too low cut, I ended up wearing it on the weekend and it was really comfortable and cute. Unfortunately, it was low cut and kept exposing my bra. The length also felt a bit awkward- I'm 5'9" and it was longer than I expected from the photos.

Almost perfect
The material is a little warm for summer but perfect for my cold office. Loved the style and length! I went back and forth on whether to buy it but ended up returning. If it had pockets I would have kept it.

Odd fit
The fit was really strange, it's a pretty dress and material but I was unable to comfortably wear.
Imperial Garden Sheath

Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 18
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 240lbs

Cute but low cut
The material was flattering and comfortable and the dress overall was great. The cut made me self conscious of how much cleavage was visible during the day and I kept adjusting it. I'd rent it again, just not for work.

Fancy and cute
I rented for a black tie event and ended up thinking it wasn't fancy enough so wore to a work dinner. I loved it so much, I wore it instead of my backup to the black tie and dressed it up with jewelry and blended in well. I love the style, versatility, and if it were just a little more comfortable and practical to own would have purchased.

Cute and manageable enough to keep
This dress is cute and really comfortable. Not the most flattering dress ever with my body type but the comfort and the fact it is washable made it worth keeping. It's currently selling in retail stores for nearly double so I'm happy with the dress and with purchasing it.
