Fit really well, needed some steaming but looked expensive

Was perfect for vacation in Istanbul.

Bought it, which is what you do when you find your soulmate in a dress! Now that I own it, fyi it does shrink a little in the wash which was great for me. Straps are fussy. Pay attention to the picture where there are two shoulder straps on each side or don’t - either will work! Love the feel of the fabric.

Not my best color, but I loved the cut and pattern of this. Perfect vacay dress. TTS. I hope farm/RTR release it in other color ways! It did feel like a bit of an engineering feat getting it on and laced up correctly (especially after a couple spritzes) but loved that I didn’t need a bra, and the straps stayed nice and secure one I had some help adjusting and tying the back.

Really cute print with nice color palette Can't wear a bra as it's totally backless.Easy adjusting with back straps.

Obsessed with Farm Rio and was delighted to receive this beautiful piece with tags. It was so comfy, and was perfect for a summer dinner at an outdoor restaurant. Took me a minute to figure out the straps and needed help to tie. Great length, very breathable, just a little loose in the waist. Wore silicone bra covers since it was strappy and backless.

Really interesting print, specifically got it for my daughters nautical themed party. The back was a little too revealing for my taste and the dress straps ran big, but nothing a cardigan couldn’t fix.

It’s hard to do up yourself

Not my favorite rental. It was a little large as well.

True size and flattering but this dress is very complicated. Take some doing to figure it out. One star off for that.

Fussy straps and overall just misses perfection. But a very beautiful romantic look for a tapas restaurant date night.

I needed my wife to help me with tying up the back of the dress because the beads on the strings made it difficult to pull them through the corset loops. However, once it was on, the dress was gorgeous and I got loads of compliments on it!

It was fun to wear and comfortable, once you can figure out the beaded straps in the back, but definitely worth it because it looks really pretty. Looks better in person and does not photograph well in pictures.

Wanted to love bc the print is so cute I just did not. I did not like the drop waist that is under the empire waist. I feel like if you have hips it accentuates it and made me feel bigger in that area. Farm Rio is always all over the board in my opinion for sizing. This i thought was large on the top especially.

Not the best color palette for me but I loved the quirky pattern (octopus, seahorse, etc) as well as the open back. It’s TTS but an odd length for me hitting just above the ankles (I like maxis to hit at the top of my foot). A drop waist can be tough but the fabric is forgiving. I deducted a couple of stars because it’s difficult to put on as the ties need to be adjusted to fit properly, but they’re covered in these tiny metallic studs that get caught in the loops & it’s really tough to adjust on your own. I think it took me 20 minutes on my own. If you rent this plan on getting help to adjust the ties.

the straps being beaded made it hard to get the ties all adjusted as tightly as I would have wanted but other wise loved it!

As I always say, depends on how you style it and you can use it for a variety of things. The only negative about this dress is that it's a lace up back and, whist a very expensive feeling touch, the beads sewn onto the laces weren't well thought out. Makes it impossible to put on without help. I now fully understand why ladies needed 'ladies maids' to get dressed

Very cute dress, a bit heavier on the material than I am used to but overall cute and festive.

I have a small waist and wider hips and this was so flattering especially with the adjustable straps

It arrived never having been worn, tags still on. The linen fabric drapes beautifully with the pleats, it skims your hips before the pleats which is nice and very flattering. The fabric ties have beading which add a nice touch. Again, I should have bought this dress. Great quality & design

Great cut

Perfect Vacation dress. Fits TTS even with a larger chest. Straps are super confusing, but great dress overall!

I really enjoyed this dress, even though I had trouble figuring out the ties in the back correctly. And later realized I could have done something else that might have worked better. The lower back part was large, and had a gaping hole in the back. I would probably have sized down for this issue. But I also wore it at the end of a vacation, so having a little extra room after some indulgence wasn't too bad. I really like the top part, it's comfortable and modest.

I was the first to wear this dress, got to pull the tags off. The straps were confusing to adjust, I had to look at the photo of the model to figure out where my head and arms go... But once I had it properly adjusted, it fit very well. No bra, no problem. The straps have little pegs on them (like octopus legs!) that hold it in place better than usual.

Received many compliments on unusual pattern. Is heavier material but works in 90 degree heat.

The straps look kind of cool but because of the beaded edge they don't flow easily. This is a pain for trying to get the straps in the right place. Ironically it also meant that the straps wouldn't shift as I stood or sat so the waist stayed tight while the straps at my shoulder were falling down all night, and yet I still couldn't get enough support for my bust (and no real way to wear a bra). Just too frustrating for me. Looked nice but not enough to make up for how annoying it was to wear.

Hard to get on!

This dress has really cool oceanic theme. I loved the pattern and shape of this dress and will try a larger size one day- just not for this wedding. The straps likely came strapped up wrong, and they have little beads to hold them in place, which also made it tough to feed through the loops. Thank goodness for the first 60 days flexibility and the chat feature!

I had to re look at the photos to figure out the straps. I also felt like I had a wierd amount of side boob in this dress. I wore a jean jacket over so it was wearable I really liked the print but the strap and boob situation was odd.

What a fun dress to wear to a summer party! The open back and fit at the waste is sophisticated for a summer party. So many compliments.

straps have a learning curve. definitely worth renting but not tempted to buy

I got a little confused with how to wear

I love Farm Rio, but I could not for the life of me figure these straps out. I'm not joking when I say it took about 15 minutes to put it on. Also because the straps are beaded (a generally nice detail), they are don't run smoothly through the loops, which just adds to an already confusing dress.

It took close to 30 minutes to get the laces configured properly and to lace up the dress with the help of my boyfriend. I do not think I would have been able to put on this dress by myself due to the complexity of the straps. The straps had these pointy gold accents that got caught on the straps and made it very difficult to adjust everything. The dress looked really pretty on and the design was cute. I was only able to wear the dress for a few hours. The straps had to be laced very tightly and this pulled my shoulders down and put strain on my back.

Busty ladies beware, the chest area can fit very strangely due to the confusing tie situation

I ended up only wearing this for a short time because the straps were so strange it felt hard and uncomfortable to wear.
