| I have this in the red (beautiful color!). I love Kiyonna tops; Kiyonna is my go-to store for when I don't want to rock a t-shirt. I ordered this in my normal 2x size. I'm not sure if it is the material (I have the Keira Kimono Sleeve Top which is a sturdier material than this jersey knit) or the cut, but the ruching imitates what I would look like if I had saggy, baggy belly rolls. There is way too much fabric in the belly area and it is also too long; however, it did fit in the chest,shoulders and arms. I don't know that if I had sized down, it would've made a difference in the belly area, as it is completely out of proportion there. The neckline is ridiculous; there's too much fabric, it's too twisted/wrinkly and it will never look like it does in the pictures on your site (on the shoulder or off). Sadly, I had removed the tags before I had really taken a good look at myself in it. TOTAL DUD; hopefully, this is the only time I say that about a kiyonna top! |

Not bad!, 12.10.2012

| I bought this top in red 1 week ago. I am a size 20-22, but a little strong in the midsection. I ordered it in the 2x. The fit is great, but was expecting a little more out of it. The material is a stretch cotton, so the shoulders don't seem to stay in place every time I move. Hard to get the off the shoulder look. It is wrinkled on the stomach, great for hiding the gut. However, the cut of the shirt does not flatter the back rolls. I'm satisfied with my purchase, but definitely not one of the best cut shirts for a chunky woman! |

Not Flattering, 12.1.2012

| Reviewer: Christine (Powhatan, VA) |
| I am sending this back because the top had a flimsy feel and wasn't very flattering. It was far too long; I prefer my shirts to hit mid-hip, and this top fit more like a tunic. I'm an hourglass shape and the ruching wasn't tight enough around my tummy, so it sort of sagged. Also, it took a lot of time to make the mock cowl neck lay correctly and I imagine if I wore it out, it would look very messy. Too bad. |

What a Fun Top!, 11.21.2012

| So versatile! I LOVED the ruching on the sides; didn't think I would, but it really works well. Much better than it being all smooth over my belly, which happens to be my trouble area. The top part I wear with both sides down and it looks great! I bought it in red so I can wear it with a pair of tights and ballet flats for the holidays. Looks really good together! Happy girl! |

Had high hopes!, 10.26.2012

| My shape is very similar to the model, so I expected the shirt to fit the same way on me:) The ruching is much too loose around the stomach area which actually makes it look like I have a spare tire. Definitely not the look I wanted. |
