This dress was beautiful! I'm not really one to wear lots of color, and strapless is difficult when you have large tatas up top (like myself--34DD), so this was definitely different than something that I would normally pick. In fact, I typically try to do my best at hiding or minimizing the look of my chest area in hopes of looking smaller. However, I had read so many reviews about how this dress was made for larger-busted women, so I decided to give it a shot and try something different. I originally ordered this dress in a size 8, which is what i normally wear, and the top fit like no other strapless dress ever had. It was PERFECT. Unfortunately, the middle portion of the dress was...not so perfect. The ruching detail was beautiful, but kept bunching up underneath the bust of the dress. I decided that the best thing to do would be to go up a size, but was afraid that the top would then be to big. Sooooooo I had a size 10R and a new backup dress overnighted to me. When I tried on the size 10, the mid-section and bust were a tad too big and the ruching still kept riding up, which perplexed me, but i figured I would just have to deal with it and make it work. I did have to keep pulling up the dress while also pulling down the ruching throughout the night, which was a bit irritating. Additionally, the length of the dress was okay, but was too short with heels--even my shortest ones--so I was forced to wear flats. Overall, I think the dress really was lovely, it just wasn't perfect for my body and would probably work on someone thinner with a large chest. This was also my first time renting and I think I have a better idea of what would would be better for me on my next rental.
