Stylist Review!

I love this feminine dress by Paper Crown! Running true to size with some stretch. I recommend wearing your true size for you primary and sizing down for your back up. This style is roomy and loose at the hips. It works for all cup sizes. You are not able to wear a standard bra, so you should wear a strapless bra. At 5ft, the length hit me knee length. I love the color of this dress! Pair with a strappy heel and earrings.

Cute and breezy for a day at the races

Rented this for a day of horse racing. Other reviews are spot on in that the dress is seriously a bag. Thankfully, I prefer that fit, so this was perfect! I sized down to a M and it was great. Definitely better for taller ladies, I'm 5'7" and it came down below my knees which, paired with the baggy fit, would be overwhelming on someone who is super petite or prefers to show off their shape a bit more. Overall, solid rental! Would I rent again?... eh, probably not.

Cool drop waist dress - perfect for work

This is a modern take on a 20s drop waist dress. It is not supposed to be fitted (like a kicky tennis style dress). It should look loose and boxy. That is the point. Google - 20s drop waist high tea dress - and you'll get the idea. For styling I would recommend a blazer and pointy flats. I think either an all black or all white blazer/shoe combo looks great with this. If you do a white blazer, you might be able to pull off some white sneakers with it if you are tall. I'm vampire white and I think this dress is fine for fair skin tones, especially when paired with a bright lip. Without a blazer or fitted jacket, this is a tricky silhouette to pull off. I would avoid this if you have a full bust (even though there's room) UNLESS you are wearing a blazer with it. For those at or under 5'7" I think this would really overwhelm a petite frame. I would skip. Others have said to size down. I think the dress is true to fit--it's just supposed to look loose. If you are usually between S and M, then get S. If you are ordering an alternate size, then in that example get S and XS. I also would say the dress is longer than pictured. It will probably fully cover knees for most people. For that reason, it's a great dress for a work meeting/event or another modest occasion: a dressier brunch/lunch, meeting someone's relatives, etc.

Bad color for fair skin

This color was not flattering on my fair skin. Also very boxy on petite frame. Fabric was nice though.

Too big and wrong color.

I didn't end up wearing this. I'm in my second trimester and ordered a size XS, I was still swimming in it. I also wouldn't recommend this color for fair skin tones.

Nope.

It was a weird fit. Super long, boxy, but then tight in the bust. I couldn't wear it to my event.

Unflattering

Read prior reviews that this dress was a loose fit , but decided to give it a try. The XS was super boxy in a very unflattering way, even for a loose drop waist style. I didn't end up wearing it

Wish I Listened To Other Reviewers

I wish I had listened to all the reviews of what an awkward fit this dress is. Is was tight up top and louse on the bottom. I would definitely not recommend this any women with curves as the pleats on the bottom made my hips look huge. I didn't end up wearing because I couldn't figure out how to make it work with either size.

Not good on petite girls

I got the XS and it was too big and bulky on me. It was too long and the waist was really bulky and made me look really wide... I think the way the seam is done causes the waist to not really lay flat. I imagine this would be really great on tall thin girls, but I don't think it's right if you have a small frame. The color was also not great on my fair skin.
