I didn't even have to travel with my dress - I just sent it to the hotel! Awesome experience.

I wore this dress to a wedding - it was cute and easy to wear. I ordered a 0 and 2 and wore the 2.

Great dress, hung great on my body! The lines are so flattering!

The fabric was loose but not at all clingy. Guys loved it! Great with a cardigan and easily dressed up or down. A great go-to piece.

Great fabric and flawless fit!

I wore this to a daytime party and then to a concert with a leather jacket - it can definitely be dressed up or down. I loved the fabric - very lightweight and comfortable. Sometimes size 2 can be tight in the hips for me but this was perfect. I highly recommend!

Adorable dress and looks very cute on. I'm 5'9" and without opaque tights I would be uncomfortable with how short it was - hit me mid-thigh. Found the royal blue to stand out more than in the photos, which was a plus and added to the dress even more. Pattern and cut hides a tummy.

I loved this dress. The only problem was that the attached belt/sash was rather droopy and made the look a little unflattering at times.

This was my back up dress and I honestly wasn't expecting it to be as cute as it was. However, it was so cute that I ended up wearing it instead of my first choice dress! I am pretty petite (5'3, 32B, 105 lbs) and the size 0 was a little big around my waist but nothing noticeable. I actually liked that it was a little loose, it made it much more comfortable. As someone on the shorter side, the length was perfect, it was a few inches above the knee. Great rental. Perfect for a semi-formal event (wore it to my friends daytime wedding).

The dress is lovely. Although there are navy stripes, it photographs and looks black and white unless you stand up close. I wore it to an outdoor event and got huge compliments. The fit is amazing and the dress is extremely comfortable!

This is a great dress and the picture does not do it justice. The fabric is lightweight, making it especially comfortable. I ordered a size 0 and 2 but ended up wearing the 0 and it still had a little wiggle room. I would recommend getting a smaller size as your back up, especially if you are smaller on top. Overall it was really cute though.

Great day-to-night

This dress is super cute and very, very comfortable-- it weighs maybe 1 lb. I was nervous about the straplessness of it-- I am a 32d, so I get nervous about dresses/strapless bras falling down. Since it was so light, it didn't slip at all. It had just enough elastic on top to keep it in place, but not so much that I could feel it binding or anything. I would definitely recommend it for warm weather/hot weather because it is so weightless. The pattern had way more blue than the picture lets on here. It's half blue half black. The blue is a very bright navy, almost ultramarine. Another benefit is that it transitions seamlessly from day to night. I wore it on my birthday during the day with sandals and then added heels and jewelry for nighttime. People were actually stopping me on the street (I'm serious-- 3 different times) to ask me where I got it. The other cool thing about it is that it photographs really well. My birthday pictures look great!

Dress fits true to size however, on my tiny frame it looked a little bulky. The waist was a comfy fit but if the pattern hadn't been there it would have done nothing for my tiny waist. I wold recommend it for curvier gals. Still loved it though.

Classy dress, fits well

I wore this for opening day at the horse races in Del Mar it was classy and the fit is great. There is a little blue in the lines that looked great with my blue hat.

Wacky geometric design actually turned out to be very flattering. Dress still looks chic up close

Tight short dress so good for petite figures. Also tight fit in chest. All that said, it's still true to size. Wouldnt recommend for curvy figures. Its also good for dress up or down. May even be appropriate for some day events but mostly evening parties.

I liked this dress, but was not able to get my usual size 2, so I got the 4 and it was too big. Runs TTS.

I loved this dress as I am partial to bold black and white. This is definitely a standout in a room. This is silky fabric but still structured on top.

Something cute and different

This dress fit well - was a little shorter than expected, but still looked classy. Very lightweight so probably best for summer unless paired with a blazer for a more casual look. A tiny bit large in the bust (34A) but was OK with slightly padded strapless bra. The lines on the dress are black and navy - I paired with black pumps. Photographs well and received lots of compliments!

Great dress!

I wore this dress for a derby (day) party and loved it!!!! It runs true to size and looks great in person. I got tons of compliments! The dress material itself is a little thin, but overall I loved it! I would wear this again in a second.

I wore this for a photo shoot. The zero was a bit 'roomy' in the bust area, but the overall fit was nice.

Adorable, very easy fit. I wore this to a brunch at a wedding. Would also be great for dancing because it has a just a smidge of stretch.

Great dress, way too large!

I absolutely loved this dress. The navy is much more vivid in person and adds a cool contrast with the black and white. Unfortunately, the dress ran way too big and I couldn't wear it.

Great pattern

Rented for a friend's rehearsal dinner. The pattern was great - received lots of compliments! As other reviewers mentioned, the dress ran big in the waist, but not so much that I couldn't wear it. Length was perfect for my height (5'1").

Too baggy...

This dress was super cute, but was a bit too big in the chest and waist. Maybe suitable for a different event other than Vegas.

I was, sadly, not as impressed with this dress as the other reviews were. In fact, I did not wear it. The fabric has a lot of stretch and made me look "baggy" -- I don't know how else to put it. The picture makes the dress look formed at the top/bust, but it's more like swimsuit material/fitting and just follows your shape. I was hoping that it would be with more structure. It made me look much larger than I am, as a result.
