Perfect dress for Black Tie Wedding (or Formal Attire)!
Absolutely loved this dress!! I am 5'5" with a 34C chest 138 lbs, and the length was right at my ankles maybe a bit above. Worked perfectly with 3" heels. I typically wear 6 or an 8 in formal dresses, and this fit fantastic. I have never received so many compliments on a dress. It also comes with pockets which was super easy to store my phone and lipstick in. The material was very nice, not itchy, and just was beautiful for a formal garhering. I honestly by the end of the night wish I owned this, so fun to dance in all night. I definitely want to rent this again snd highly recommend!!

Loved it!
I tried the dress on at the DC Rent the Runway store. The 6 fit perfectly. But then I accidentally ordered the 4, so I didn't wear the dress.

Simple but so Elegant!
I usually wear a size 6, but from the other reviews I rented a 6 and a 4. The 4 fit perfectly! So many compliments on it!

Comfy and stylish!
I loved the blue pop of color on the shoulder, and got many compliments on this dress, which I wore to a formal holiday work party. The length was perfect to pair with shoes of any height- I went with heels. The dress was loose and flowy from my rib cage down, so consider basing your size more on your chest and ribs rather than hips.

Really lovely
I wanted something interesting for a colorful wedding that still felt like the more neutral, minimalist style I usually wear and this was perfect. The fit of the armhole was a little tight and I definitely had to keep pulling the strapless side up--it's nice that it is high on that side to hide any underarm bulge, but it sat kind of funny on me. This dress also hit me at my true waist, which is not always the case for me so that was a win. Where this dress really shines though is how it flows--BEAUTIFUL flow as you walk. It hit me right above my ankles and with heels it was the perfect length. Great for dancing too!

Stylist Review!
I love this classy dress by Slate and Willow. This dress runs true to size so we suggest sizing up for your back up. The fabric is loose at the hips but fitted at the waist. It works best for A to C cups and should be worn with a strapless bra. Pair with heels and accessories to complete this look!

So many compliments and it has pockets!
I wore this dress to a wedding in Maine and it was formal without being too dressy. It was snug up top but it was perfect because I was able to wear a normal bra and just take one strap down.

Stylist Review
I really liked how this dress is so classy and effortless, but it also has a fun unique little twist with the cool neckline and the colorblock sleeve. The length is really pretty and feminine, and the dress is really easy to accessorize, which is awesome. It does run true to size and the fabric doesn't have any stretch, so I'd recommend sizing up for backup.

Great dress!
Dress fit well and was overall very comfortable. I did need to keep pulling the top up throughout the evening. I received many compliments!

This dress was perfect for a formal wedding!
The dress fit really well and was very true to size. I'm normally a size 4 in dresses but I'm a 32B though so if you're busty you may need to size up because it fit without a bra and was snug on the top. The tea length was such a flattering length (I'm 5'4" and didn't want to have to worry about the length of a dress) and the pop of color at the shoulder was fun in pictures.

This dress is amazing. I wore it to a gala for work that demanded a touch of blue and I felt really attractive and got a bunch of compliments. Under arm fat is not really a problem, which is nice. But be warned: this is really hard to get on by yourself. I genuinely felt like I deserved a medal for ingenuity.

The dress was very comfy and church appropriate as I had to do a reading.
Was a little snug through the rubs.

Cute dress, I'm just in between sizes
Dress was almost there! Top was a little big, and bc it's one shoulder it just wouldn't stay upright. The waist fit well but the skirt is a little heavier so the top needs to be more fitted, but a size down would've been too small for me. Think it's just not for shorter torsos/petites.

Elegant dress with pockets!
Fabric was beautiful and the skirt made it so much fun to dance in! I wore a strapless bra and found the chest to be a little big for my A-cups. I felt very elegant, and loved having pockets. I noticed some slight pilling under the arms, but highly doubt anyone else would have noticed it. Would recommend!

I have a full bust and couldn't get the zipper up all the way. Unfortunately I had to return the dress. It was a beautiful and fun dress otherwise!
