The deep purple/blue of the dress made me feel like royalty, and I received compliments on the style and color all night from my friends. It moves beautiful when you dance too! :-)

Vera Wang dresses are dreamy, and the fit and fabric quality of this dress in particular are testament to that. Loved the pockets, and the fact that you could adjust the drape in the back to be conservative or very provocative. I go to a Christian school and they had to approve the dress so the back and the slit in front made me wonder if it would pass inspection, but the dress is so classy and elegant it was never an issue.

Rented it but did not wear
Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
This dress looks amazing on the model, on me however I looked frumpy. The back ties together in the butt area making your asset look bigger and not in a good way. Also, my chest was popping out of this. Color was beautiful but I didn't like the shape of the dress one bit. I had rented it for a wedding but thought that aside from the cut, it was not appropriate to show that much skin.

Not meant for short women
Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I rented this dress as a backup for a wedding I was attending. The dress color is gorgeous! The top fit my 34D chest very well. However, I am short and the open back dress went down too far. I would not recommend this dress for anyone shorter than 5'3 as the back is just too open. The dress did show a little wear on it. Material is flowy and beautiful. If I was taller I would have definitively worn it.
