Great Gala Gown
Not sure if this would work for larger busts, it was a tad snug in the bustier, but otherwise it fit well and received lots of compliments!

Classy. Gorgeous color. Comfortable. Has pockets.
Felt very elegant in this dress and was a perfect look for a formal gala I was attending. I am 5'7 and the regular worked for me with shorter heels. The dress has some flecks of sparkle in it. Subtle and not overwhelming. Very happy with my selection.

I really like this dress, and received a lot of compliments
I wish I had more time and could have ordered a size down to see how that felt, but the store only had a 6 (my event was the next night) and the bottom was really big on me, but the top fit well. The color is beautiful, and the fabric has a quality texture.

Beautiful fabric + POCKETS!
The fabric of this dress is stunning, even prettier in person than it is in pictures -- a metallic shimmering red with beautiful textures. It was shockingly comfortable to wear (no bra + spanx) and has pockets (WIN!). I got tons of compliments. My only recommendation/word of warning is for women who are only the less-busty side. In other user photos, I can see that women with bigger boobs fill out this dress way better than those who don't. Because of the deep V in the front and the low back, it's hard to do much in the way of padding. I'm a 34B on a good day and I sized down knowing that it might be an issue. It wasn't an issue, but I was one dramatic bend away from a nip slip and the chest area felt a little... roomy. So if, like me, you aren't gifted in the bosom department, either size down on your backup, or consider another dress.

The illusion front made the dress comfortable and completely appropriate for a formal winter wedding. I loved the thick fabric for December. I am 5’10” and wore about 2” heels, which were just barely enough to keep the dress off the ground.

Beautiful gown for holiday gala
This dress is a beautiful color with a bit of sheen to it. The fabric is very sturdy, to the point where I didn't need to wear any kind of bra or support with it. The fabric is also very wrinkle-resistant. I wore the dress for a work event, and it was a bit too low-cut, so I used removable fashion tape to attach a small piece of black fabric under the mesh to provide a bit more coverage. I am 5'2" and wore 4" heels and the regular was about 3.5" too long (had to use more fashion tape to do a temporary hem). Oh, and IT HAS POCKETS that were big enough to fit my phone.

This dress was perfect. Both the 4 and the 2 fit, but the smaller size hugged my body just perfectly. I didn't wear and bra and had no problems with coverage or worrying something might show. I'm a 32D. The length was great to wear with heels and I'm 5'4.75". The dress was also very comfortable and fairly light weight, which made it great for a south Texas event. I would definitely rent this dress again! I didn't want to send it back!

Beautiful and comfortable
Great black tie option that offers some color! I'm 5'10" and wore 3inch heels and the length was just an inch or so off the floor. Very comfortable and elegant dress. The color and design are beautiful in person. Pockets are always a winner! The sheer front is pretty and not too showy although beware of tan lines! I wore a v neck jumpsuit the day before and my burn/tan showed through. Highly recommended.

It fit absolutely perfect, true to size and I chose to go braless because it fit so well. I'm a 36D so I'd purchased a bra that would work with this, and even petals - but used neither. This dress is a unicorn and you should rent it!

Did not wear but would recommend!
This dress is one way to do a plunging neckline but still keep your look classy and stunning. I ultimately did not wear it because my other choice was more of what I wanted, but I would totally rent and wear this. I have an apple shape and the dress still zipped up around my rib cage, no problem. Was comfortable and gorgeous. Definitely rent if you're considering!

This dress made me feel incredible. I was so sad when I had to send it back. I got so many compliments on how beautiful this dress is. It was great that it was big enough in the chest to be comfortable while also tight enough that I wasn't worried about anything slipping out of where it was supposed to be. If you're taller than 5'7"-5'8" I would definitely recommend the long. I only needed like an inch or two heel and it was a perfect length

The dress was the right combination of elegant and sexy, and the deep burgundy color was beautiful.
No bra necessary, but I wore some stick-ons to provide a little more oomph in that area :) Fit beautifully.

Gorgeous dress and an absolutely stunning material!
This dress was stunning. Held you in place really well and was very flattering. The thicker material made it great for a snowy Michigan winter formal event! The only CON would be that it's pretty short. I'm 5'10-5'11. Most "longs" are perfect on me. But this one, without shoes on, ended right above the floor, so with shoes on it was about 1-2" above the ground. But the dress was so beautiful I could ignore that small detail

Gorgeous dress. Fit beautifully and I did not need to wear a bra (even though I have a large chest). I wear an 8/10 and the 10 was perfect. So comfortable! The fabric was beautiful and not scratchy at all; I have sensitive skin, but had no issues. Sorry for the weird angle in the first photo; my daughter was playing photographer! Would definitely rent it again!

New Year's Eve Wedding
I got this dress for a NYE Wedding and was obsessed! The fabric is really rich, beautiful, and detailed, but the dress still flows very well, is comfortable, and it isn't too heavy. In terms of sizing, I'm normally a solid 4, but the 2 fit very well and felt slimming. Even though the bust is low cut, the fabric across the bust makes the dress appropriate for a wedding or more formal event. The fabric across the bust was just dark/dense enough that it provided some coverage, but still allowed me to feel as though I was showing the right amount of cleavage. No bra was needed as the dress provides a great amount of coverage. Can't say enough good things about the dress - it was perfect for my event and a great dress overall! Plus, the dress has pockets - you can't go wrong!

This dress was perfect! The pockets were a definite bonus. The material was heavy so very nice for a December party. The regular length was long but i was able to shorten it about 2 inches with hem tape so it brushed the floor with my 4 inch heels. Received many compliments all evening.

Flattering and show stopping all at once!
I rented this dress for a Christmas gala. It was a hit! So many compliments and so very comfortable. I usually wear a 12 due to my bust but the 12 in this dress was suffocating. The 14 provided more room but was a touch too long in the torso. Short people problems? I loved it so much I made this my Christmas card. I would definitely rent again.

This dress made the night!
First the pictures didn’t do this dress justice!!! It’s absolutely beautiful! It fit great! It hide my mom gut and those pockets 😍. I had so much confidents in this dress! It came 5ish days before my event so I had plenty of time to pick shoes out and Accessories! After 4 kids I didn’t think I would be one to not wear a bra so I bought the silicone push-up bra but I didn’t need it! Return was easy and I will definitely Rent again!

Classy & Beautiful for Symphony Ball
I absolutely LOVED this dress! As a pear shape, dress shopping is generally an absolute nightmare for me, but this gorgeous gown was perfect for my body type. I found it does run a bit large, as I'm usually a 10L but wore the 8L, as the 10 was too loose in the bust (also a classic pear shape problem). The fabric is heavy, perfect for a winter event, so you don't need a bra. Don't need Spanx, and it even has pockets! If you are looking for a gown where you'll stand out all night, this is it. I highly recommend renting this beauty!

This was my backup dress and I am so glad I ordered it. It fits perfectly, it is very low cut meaning you cannot wear a bra, but there is no need, the fabric is thick enough and the fit perfect that you don’t need to worry about anything. And if you are not convinced... It has pockets!! LOVED it and received a lot of compliments. Highly recommend

PERFECT dress for a formal event
I wore this dress for a Game of Thrones themed wedding and it was beyond perfect. It was comfortable and has pockets, which is always a plus. It is long, so I pretty much had to wear heels, I'm 5'5", and the mesh neckline does come up to the top of your collar bone. I loved the texture of the dress, the picture shows the pattern so you can kind of see how it feels. If you are thinking about this dress, be sure you are comfortable with a lit of boobsge at your event. I did use some fashion tape just to be sure there were no slips, but the top was pretty tight so I want all that worried. Definitely an amazing dress.

This dress is amazing and unforgettable. I got so many compliments and it fit like a glove. I suggest ordering a size smaller for your extra size. I'm usually a 4 (which would have fit fine with a tiny bit of extra room) but the 2 fit better! I also suggest getting the Long if you are 5'7 or taller. I'm so glad I got the Long and it was the perfect length with a heel. The top is gorgeous but may be a bit tricky if you have a large chest. I'm small chested and wore sticky bra and some tape but I could have done nothing and it would have fit fine! Rent this dress for a formal occasion...so comfy and with pockets too!

I'm 5'5 165 and 36C. I'm usually somewhere between an 8 and 10. This dress fit me perfectly in the bust and waist. I wore a 8R and it was tight enough that I didn't have to wear a bra and worry about them "dislodging". I wore a plunge bra anyways and it was really more of a pain than anything. The fabric is so thick that I didn't have to worry about getting too cold..... for various reasons. Length was almost too short. I wore 3" heels and it was perfect. Any taller and this would have been a no go. Pro: fitted in waist and bust, thick fabric, meshing is so classy. Con: the liner was ripped at the bottom. (I'm sure it's something they will fix) If you are too busty this dress may reveal more cleavage than your comfortable with, length was barely there with 3" heels. Regardless, I wore this dress to a gala and then out dancing. I had enough room that I felt like I could easily dance and not worry about ripping.

Loved this dress
I'm usually a 2 in dresses, but designer dresses tend to run smaller than department store dresses, so I chose a 4R as my main size and 2R as backup. I ended up wearing the 2R. The 4R was way too big in the chest/mesh area and gaped badly. I'm only 5'3, but I did not need to add hem tape with 3 inch heels. Several people complimented my dress, it was very comfortable, and has pockets! It was a very beautiful dress. To avoid a wardrobe malfunction in the mesh area, I ordered and wore a backless, strapless U plunge bra from amazon, and it worked perfectly with this dress. I thought I'd be the only one in this color at a fall black tie event--turns out there were almost as many women in burgundy dresses as black. It's a popular color.
