Amazing Fabric and Fit
Size worn: 42L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Loved the length, color, and sophistication of this dress. The self-fabric sash was very pretty. I did have a little bit of difficulty "hiding" the top of my Spanx because they had to sit at the right place on my hips because the opening in the back is larger than it appears on the model, but other than that it is a very flattering and forgiving fabric. The back opening was probably an 8" triangle instead of 4" as it appears on the model, but I could still wear a normal bra. Definitely true to size. I wore a Bauble Bar necklace with it, and it was perfect. Definitely need some sort of statement necklace, because otherwise the front is fairly plain.

Wore to Rebuild Hoboken Gala at the W hotel.
Size worn: 42L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
Loved the dress. The material and the style was beautiful. I ordered a 42 & 44. I wish I would have ordered a size down (40) as it was a little big and the belt wasn't included with the order so maybe this would have made it better. However I wore and loved the dress and received plenty of compliments. Can't wait to rent another dress.

Loved this Gown!
Size worn: 36R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Other
This dress was beautiful in person! The fabric is really elegant and the back cutout detail made the dress really unique! I also loved the way the belt cinched my waist. I wore the 36R and it was slightly big on me; however,I would still size up in your backup size because this dress as no stretch! I wore this gown with the Yours to Keep Emerald Earrings to add a great pop of color!

Lovely and sophisticated.
Size worn: 40L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Dress was perfect for a formal affair. It is very sophisticated and the back is a little playful with the cutout. You absolutely can not wear a bra with this dress as the cut out is much larger than it looks like in the picture. I did wear spanks that came up to my waist and didnt have a problem hiding them.

Beautiful Dress
Size worn: 40R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented this as my back up dress for a formal ball. The dress details and fabric are beautiful. The cut out in the back is larger than shown on the model. I should have sized down for a better fit. Also, the dress did not arrive with the belt so I could not wear. This dress can not be worn with hign waist spanx because of the back cut out and you need to be careful of your bra as well. The cut out was open above my bra strap to the top of my undies (bikini not granny). I am a size 6, 134 pounds and 5'6" tall. Regular build with 34C/D top. This dress would be flattering with the correct undergarments and the belt. Happy shopping!!

I loved this dress and received many compliments on it throughout the night.
Size worn: 40R
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
I'm typically a size 6 in everything I wear but this was a little bit loose in natural waist so it didn't drape as much as I would have liked on top. I wish I would have done the backup size in a 4 vs. the 8 to see if is would have draped more by catching more at the waist. I also had a difficult time finding a good bra because the opening in the back was larger than I expected and non of my strapless bras worked. . I'm 5'6 and the 3 in heel I wore made it the perfect length.
