Ariette

Incredibly pleased, so I had to snap a photo because the crisp white reads even brighter and cleaner in person. The asymmetric button line is elegant, not trendy. My hourglass frame fits like it was custom cut. Wide legs elongate. Wore six hours straight at a wedding reception and stayed comfortable. The fabric is lined enough that it is not sheer. I will be rewearing the pieces separately all season.

Bought this for a cousin's engagement dinner and was excited. The design is elegant, but on my apple shape the vest pulled across the stomach whenever I sat. The buttons strained and I could not comfortably keep it closed through the meal. Trousers were also tighter in the thigh than the listing photos suggested. I sent it back for the next size up; the return was painless. For curvier midsections, I would order two sizes up and compare. Holding out hope the exchange works.

The structured shoulder line pulled my whole look together. Broad back, narrow waist: the vest followed my build exactly.

The suit itself is lovely with crisp stitching and delicate vest buttons. True to size for my hourglass shape. Four stars because the box arrived after my event; steaming fixed the wrinkles.

The quality is genuinely lovely, with a matte finish, buttons sitting straight, and the asymmetric vest hem as a nice detail. For my apple shape it runs slightly snug across the midsection, so I would size up if you carry weight there. The trousers were perfect though. Delivery took a week longer than estimated, which is why I am not giving full marks. Once I exchanged for the next size, it looked fantastic for my cousin's engagement dinner.

I kept this on from my morning client call through a late dinner. Nothing shifted, nothing gaped. The cut just worked.

I wore this to a client presentation and got compliments all afternoon. The sleeveless vest nips in at the waist just right for my hourglass shape, and the wide-leg trousers drape beautifully without pooling at the shoes. The fabric feels substantial enough for a formal setting but breathes through a long meeting. Tailoring through the armholes is clean, no gaping. I sized to my usual and it fits true. Already planning to wear it to the spring gallery opening.

The hip room was generous, and the waist never dug into me. Three straight meetings and I never once checked a mirror.

Ordered my usual but the vest runs slightly loose through the torso. Trousers are exactly right, long and lean. A quick tailor fixes the top.

The trousers skimmed right over my hip bones without squeezing. Vest laid flat across the waistband. The whole set feels pricier than the tag.
