Beautiful dress and perfect for the occasion!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

My best friend wore this dress for her sorority initiation. It looked great on her and fit great. The color complemented her skin tone very well and was very slimming at the waist. She is small busted (34A) but has wider hips. The dress was a little tight on the bottom so it looked a little stretched but she still looked amazing! She would definitely recommend this dress for any formal occasion!

You definitely need double sided tape with this dress! It was cute but not worth the trouble of making it stay in place.

Very disappointed, the dress was too big, and kind of worn out, the lining has come loose from so many wears, it sagged away from the hem of the dress

So cute but not for a pear

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

The fabric on this dress was fantastic and I can tell it is a great work party kind of dress if you have the right body type. Unfortunately, I do not. I sized up to get a 6 and an 8 and even in the 8 the bottom was really tight (I could have gotten away with wearing it but it was really too tight on my thighs) the top was more plunging on me than pictured here, and a little too loose for me. Would be better for someone with a longer torso than I have.

Sleek Versitle Dress

Size worn: 10

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

I agree with the other reviews. The dress fits loosely in the top and definitely needs fashion tape. The skirt is fitted but comfortable as it has great stretch - you don't necessarily need Spanx with this one. I also rented a Tibi dress which i ended up wearing instead only because I have a short torso and the top didn't fit as well as I wanted.

Wore this dress for a day of business meetings in LA which transitioned into drinks that night. Will agree with other reviewers that the top was a bit roomy, I needed double sided tape to hold it closed, but it was well worth it, it was very sleek and even a little sexy while still being 100% appropriate. Comfortable fabric with a touch of stretch.

I loved the dress. It looks better on arrival than the picture. However, I wear a size 10 normally but this ran small. The 'spandex' like skirt ran tight. Wish it could have been a 12!

Bottom runs small and top runs large. Would work for a bustier woman with narrow hips, especially with long torso! Very cute though, great for career
