Unexpected and unique
This dress was so different. Casual and flirty. There are bustles in unique spots that create an unusual flow of the dress. It accentuates the breast area, hides the belly a bit but I imagine if your worst feature is your hips you will want to avoid it. I will rent this one again.

Unique, fun piece that I would not normally pick out but so glad I did. Wore it to a girlfriend's birthday brunch and got tons of compliments!

Stylist Review
I love the print on this style! It is very unique and runs true to size. I do recommend going up one size for the back up. It works well for all cup sizes. This style is fitted throughout the midsection and loose at the hips.

Beautiful, feminine, and exquisitely designed
This dress is one of my favorites and made me feel like a pretty, couture Cinderella with its silk patchwork fabric and perfect asymmetrical ruching. I received so many compliments! The fit was very comfortable and easy to move about all day, although the dress is deceivingly short in a few areas- a couple random breezes blew my skirt up like Marilyn Monroe. I wore it in the daytime with sandals for a dressy-casual look and in the evening with heels. I would definitely rent again.

unique style
I am 5'3 36DD, 147 and it fit me perfectly, was not able to work with a padded bra though, so use light lining bra if you have similar measurement. silk dress is gorgeous and unique

Such an interesting piece
Loved this one! I wound up wearing it to work and then a happy hour afterwards. I paired it with a jean jacket and some white platform sneakers. One thing: the fabric is slippery and lightweight, so you'll need to be on high alert if it's a windy day.

Rented this for a bachelorette trip, loved the fun print.
Extremely awkward fit. A lot of gaping fabric around the mid section, the fabric doesn't lay well around the cleavage, and the bottom flares out pretty far but with the awkward fit elsewhere it just looked bad overall.

Great print!
Cute, loved the fabric, and overall good fit! The v neck wasn't as modest as I was hoping for work but you could put a cami underneath.

Wore it while on holiday in London & Croatia
I love this dress so much that I don't want to give it back. I've worn it to the office with a jacket, to fancy dinners and around the city with a leather jacket. It gives me curves in all the right places...I think it's particularly great for someone with small boobs because it does wonders for them.

So cool and interesting but way to big. I feel I will need to go down 2 sizes.
Very flowy and airy, which was surprising for a silk like dress.

The patterns are lovely.
Well made dress with nice fabric. I wore this on some very hot days and stayed very cool. The length of the hem line was short, but not too short. I could have worn a cami and worn to work, otherwise it was a bit too much cleavage for a work environment. I dressed down with some cute superga shoes, but could have easily dressed up with heels.

Amazing quality, but size up!
I love this dress. The fabric is dreamy, the print unique without being too flashy for everyday, and the design is made to flatter a woman's body. That said, I've previously worn Carven dresses in a size 34 - the only reason I took a 38 this time is because that's what I tried on at the RTR Georgetown location. I assumed it would be too big, but it honestly fit like a glove. If I had ordered my usual size, I doubt I'd be able to zip it in the rip/chest area. That said, I'm excited to wear this again! 10/10 recommend.

Fabulous Fit and would work for large breast too
I wore it because I love the flowyness of it and have large hips. At 5'1'' this dress was the perfect length, however the 42 was out of stock so I ordered the 44 and other than having to pin the breast area shut so I wouldn't show my breasts to everyone this dress was amazing, (I'm at 150-160 lbs and carry my weight on my hips).

Cool prints
I loved this dress, and it fit really well but I didn't end up wearing it on vacation. The one thing that put me off a little were the gathers that added wrinkles and made it look like it wasn't fitting as well as it was, but I loved the silky fabric and colour combo- I'll rent it again when the weather warms up.

Fun in theory!
Beautiful fabric and patterns but unfortunately an unflattering construction. Main seam is just below bust, with irregular, intentional bunching near hips. Gives the effect of a tummy when there isn't one!

Loved the feel, fun and fabric but this dress was too short for me to wear at my age, especially for work, even in the casual summer.

This runs super small. I sized up and it still would not zip up. Lovely dress and well made. Perfect for someone with a small to average chest.

A lot going on!
I didn't end up wearing this. There is this odd gather below the waist line and above the hips every 4 inches or so around the dress. It hits in an extremely unflattering spot. That along with a lot of different prints was just a lot going on. I really read reviews thoroughly before I order anything. It was just weird.

this dress was not at all flattering
there were these baggy parts all around the dress in the worst places. and the bust line was not placed well. The pattern was OK, looked cuter on line. I could not wear this dress and look good.
