Badgley Mischka

Really pretty dress but it runs pretty big. I usually wear an 8 and imagine I could've worn a 6 or even a 4. Definitely size down.

I love this ombre'd sequin party dress! This fits true to size but larger than I expected, so I recommend sizing down in your back up if you want a more fitted look. The low v could work with a low v standard bra, but I recommend wearing this with an adhesive bra unhooked to really take advantage of the plunge detail.The hip area is great for any body type and the length hit my 5'7 frame about mid thigh to knee. Pair with statement accessories and you're good to go for your next cocktail event!

This dress fit great. It's unique with the ombre color scheme and I received lots of compliments. Now for the bad part - the sequins on the sides of the dress rub against the underside of your arms. The sequins are so sharp, that after 4 hours of wear, the underside of my arms looked like a cat had clawed them. They literally bled and scabbed. It made me miserably uncomfortable and I couldn't wait to get the dress off. Too bad the designers didn't think about this and put some sort of satin darts on the sides or something. It basically made the dress unwearable in my opinion.

First, it has pockets which is the best thing ever. I was nervous about fit and ordered the 10 and 12. The 10 fit perfectly. It hit right at the knee and I thought I had a work-appropriate amount of cleavage (if that's a thing). The A-line fit my body shape well as my waist is a lot smaller than my hips. The zipper was a bit difficult it get up, but got easier from the initial try-on to wearing it for the event.

I got this dress as a last minute back up when the original dress I reserved wasn't available due to being returned damaged. This isn't my typical style. I have narrow hips (straight and narrow/athletic body type) and it was very unflattering. Made me look a lot wider than I am. My husband vetoed it before I even walked all the way in the room. Sent it back. I think this would be much better on a pear shape. Also, can definitely wear a regular bra - model makes it look low cut but it's not at all. Also, I normally wear an 8 and it was too big, so I'd size down for a backup.

I tried this dress on in a 10 since I didn't think it would stretch and with my ~36D bust, the neckline was not as low cut as on the model. The fabric does have some give, which was nice, so I could have easily gone down a size. I decided to return it as after wearing the dress for less than 10 minutes, the undersides of my arms had many little irritated scratches from the sequins. The color and ombre affect are really pretty though. I wish it had worked out!

I originally ordered this in an 8 because the badgley mischka dress I rented a month ago fit perfectly in an 8. It was huge. I reordered in a 4 and it fit like a glove! I was a little bit nervous about the neckline because of the way it looks on the model. I was pleasantly surprised upon trying it that the plunge is not nearly as deep as it appears on the model. I got tons of compliments on the dress from men and women alike! This dress is excellent for pear shaped women.

The fit was very flattering for my hour glass figure. The The V neck isn't quite as deep as it looks on the model. The pockets were great! Very comfortable- only downfall is the sequins irritated my underarms from rubbing the dress, but I expected that. Nothing too harsh.

This was my back up dress, but I could have easily worn it. Size down one size, runs a bit large. The neckline is very low cut- 34DD didn't look too great in it! Beautiful sequined ombré

The fit was slightly large and the waist was a little higher than my natural waist so I thought it made me look a little wide, but that is a normal problem for me. I loved the way that is is actually quite subtle for a sequined dress. The v-neck is low, but I have a small chest so that was not a problem. I taped it just to be safe since I wore it to work event but if I was wearing it to a different affair, I probably wouldn't have bothered.

Size down for your backup size! I ordered the 4 and backup in a 6, and ended up needing to ship the 2. The 2 fit great. A very fun dress, flattering and comfortable.

This was a great dress to feel beautiful in but also be able to move around in. I was managing the party so needed to be able to get around quickly. This shorter formal dress was perfect for the event! I did find the 6 a little loose on me. I normally wear a 6. Seemed to run just a touch bigger than a normal 6. Loved the dress!

This dress was so fun to wear and the fit was very comfortable. However, as other people have mentioned, the sequins under the arm were scratchy. The front was a bit low cut, and I am afraid that I was a bit overexposed (I am a bit top heavy).

The color was really vibrant and the ombre is trendy. I thought that the sparkle was going to lend itself too much towards a 'christmas dress' but it was just enough holiday, with a balance of trend - perfect of an afternoon wedding! WARNING: since there is cap sleeve, your arms will rub against the sequins and it wasn't pleasant. That is really the only downside to this dress.

I love sparkles and the ombré look, so I was in heaven. My breasts are large, so it makes for good cleavage. I did have some trouble with the zipper because it kept getting stuck. Overall, I loved the dress and felt so beautiful in it!

I wore this dress to my company's holiday party and it was a huge success! I ordered one size down and my usual size and ended up wearing my usual size. It fit perfectly. The length was very appropriate for a work event and even the neckline was not too revealing, which I was slightly worried about. The only con would be that my hair kept getting stuck in the sequins all night, which was kind of annoying, but really not that big of a deal at all.

I was worried it was going to be too low, but it fit with a normal bra and was supper comfortable.

This is a comfortable, loose fitting dress. The listing didn't have a backup size recommendation, so I emailed and asked and was told it fit true to size and that I should order up if I was afraid of it being too tight in the bust. I ended up wearing the 10 and it fit well, but I think I might have been able to wear an 8. I'm a 36C sometimes D and it was not tight in the bust. The picture on the site shows the V neck being very low and wide. I expected it to fit differently in the chest. I thought it would be tighter and cut across the inside of my breasts. This is just a loose V. Unless you are small chested, you need to wear a bra with this. I wore a plunging push up bra, because it was the only bra I own that didn't show. This increased the effect of the low V. I didn't use or need tape. I was a bit self-conscious of how much "Cleveland" I was showing, but my husband didn't mind. I enjoyed the dress and would wear it again. One thing: as the dress warmed up I noticed a strong smell coming from the arm pits and thought it was me. I was surprised because I wasn't really sweating. When I got home and took it off I smelled my arm pits and they did not smell. It was coming from the dress. Sorry I don't have better photos.

The dress was beautiful and I received multiple compliments on it. It fit me perfectly, showing some cleavage but was still appropriate for a work Holiday Party. The dress ended right at my knees, similar to the model. My only complaint was that my hair got caught in the sequins a few times, but that's the price to pay for a sparkly dress.

This dress is super sparkly - definitely an eye catcher! The dress does run big - I usually wear a 2/4 but ended up wearing a size 0, and there was still a little room. The dress is super comfortable and the pockets were totally functional in holding my ID and lip-gloss. The V-neck is definitely not as low as it is pictured on the model on the website. I had no problems with the sequins underneath my arms. Received so many compliments - I hope others get to enjoy this dress as well!

I wore this to my boyfriend's company holiday party and it was absolutely perfect. The 0 fit me, but as other reviewers have said, the arm holes are very tight. I wore the 2 and it fit me wonderfully. I didn't need to wear a sticky bra either, because the neckline is a lot higher in person than it is on the model. I'm also an A cup, so that probably helped too. I got compliments ALL night long, and IT HAS POCKETS. I REPEAT: IT HAS POCKETS. Basically best dress ever. I felt like a million bucks- you can tell the dress is well made because of its weight and construction. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is the fact that I woke up the next morning after wearing it and my arms were chafed from all the sequins! There's no real way around that, but I say it's totally worth it.

Gorgeous dress! Went to a wedding on Michigan Ave and it was perfect! Great fit. I felt amazing in it. And everyone complimented me on it. This was my first time renting and I can't wait to try another one. Perfect for gals with curves.

The fit was spot on- good stretch to fabric and the neckline was not as low as the photo so perfect for my large bust. I was able to wear a full coverage bra which was great. The only uncomfortable part was the scratching from the sequins under the arms but totally a gorgeous dress!

Size down. I'm typically a 12 and the 10 fit perfectly. Overall, I liked it but I wasn't totally in love. I don't think it did much to accentuate my figure but it was super comfortable and I received a ton of compliments. Did I mention it has pockets?!

This dress was amazing! I was nervous it was going to be too low cut because of the model pic since I have a larger chest and was going to an event with my boyfriends family but it ended up being the perfect amount of cleavage. Normally, I would of orders two sizes but they didn't have my backup size (12) but the 10 fits so well. I noticed in other reviews that people thought the armpits smelled.. I noticed the same thing before even putting it on. But I just went with it. The sparkles kind of hurt you arms but if you are only wearing it for a few ours it isn't that bad. Everyone loved the dress. I totally recommend it!

This dress fit perfect. It was comfortable, and the length was just right to not flash anyone while dancing. It was low cut, but I have a big chest so it showed off the girls really nicely. I paired it with a cute pair of flats, but it would have looked hot with heels too. I loved the dress - my husband REALLY loved this dress. I would totally rent this one again.

I wasn't sure how low the V-neck would be, and was pleased that it wasn't *too* low. It fit well, in a size smaller than I anticipated, and was comfortable to wear. I did wear a long-line bra under it, the one I have from my wedding, but that wasn't really necessary. Although I didn't use the pockets, I appreciate that it has them! Really loved this dress.

This designer tends to run small in the chest. I am top heavy for my waist size and so a 6 won't fit me. But I love the sparkle of Badgley dresses. I wore the 8 which fit my chest but was not fitted in the middle. I fixed this by adding a belt. If o were more proportionate, it would run true to size. The dress was stunning and when worn with the cardigan was perfect for an outdoor winter wedding. Many in attendance were LDS so the length and cap sleeves were perfect for a nice balance of sexy and modest. All in all my only complaint was the sequins DO scratch under the arms. Once I shed the cardigan and hit he dance floor I noticed the scratching. The dress is subtle and beautiful and I would recommend.

The dress definitely runs large. I'm 5'5 and wear a size 4/6 pant and 34D chest, and the size 4 was a good fit. Honestly, I could have probably fit into a 2 as well because there was extra room in the back and waist. I wore the dress to a holiday work party and it fit the occasion nicely. Not tons of compliments but I felt great and was very comfortable all night.

Normally I am 110 lbs, straight and narrow, no boobs. But I am 6 mos pregnant and most of my body has stayed the same except my chest and belly...so it has been super hard to find things that fit!! This dress was perfect--plenty of room for the bump while being snug enough at the top, plus it gave me a chance to show off my new cleavage while it lasts!! Wore it to an office christmas party and got compliments all night!! Strangers were coming up to me to tell me I looked amazing!! Couldn't be happier with this dress from RTR. If you are expecting, I'd order the size you were pre pregnancy.

Fit great! I have a longer torso and the waist fell at just the right spot. It has some volume at the bottom, but not too much, which was perfect, because I'm fuller in the hips than on top. Very eye catching, and no jewelry needed!

This dress was AHMAZING. It fit perfectly! I probably could have worn the 10, but the 12 was so comfy I didn't bother. I wore it to my company's holiday party. The dress is just beautiful and I received so many compliments throughout the night. It does itch a bit under the arms but after wearing it for 6 hours or so there was still no rash from constant contact. Hits just above the knee and the cut isn't too deep down the front- it's always nice to be able to wear a regular bra. Thank you RTR!

This ran large. I'm normally an 8, but the 6 fit perfectly. I LOVED having pockets. As others have said, the v neck is not nearly as dramatic as on the model. I'm a 34 DDD and it was still covered up and classy looking. I will say my arms were all scratched up from the sequins- red scratches and soreness for the next 24 hours, but honestly, so worth it. :) I'd rent this dress again in a heartbeat. Tons of complements.

I absolutely loved this dress. If I could afford it, I would purchase it. I rented the 14 and 16 and honestly they both fit the same pretty much. One of my huge problems with this dress was how HUGE it was on the top where the zipper zips up. There was a ton of extra fabric and I was super bummed and all set to return it. Later that day I figured out a way I could move around the zipper a bit to make it fit more snug on my back. So in the end I made it work but if I did ever buy this dress I would have to do some serious alterations with it. The only other thing was like many other girls have said, the sequins on the dress are really scratchy under your arms and the next day I woke up with a few marks on my arms from dancing in it all night. Other than those two things the dress was absolutely fabulous and I received complements on it all night. And come on, who doesn't love a dress with pockets?!

I received so many compliments on this dress at my recent work holiday party! It is a great length (just above the knee), the color/details are beautiful, and it has POCKETS! I love a good dress with pockets. I normally wear a size 8, but I ordered a 6 as my backup, and the 6 fit better! It really accentuated my waist, so I'm glad I went a size down with the backup. The only "con" is that the beads do itch a little under your arm, but slather on some lotion beforehand, and it should be good to go! Really such a fun dress, and I highly recommend it!

Roomy, Was trying to hid I was13 weeks pregnant, worked great!

Such a perfect NYE dress! I was completely comfortable, even after eating a big fancy dinner :) Also, pockets!!"

I'm a 14 on the bottom and a 12 on the top - so sometimes it's hard to find a good dress. This was a FIND! Perfect! This dress is GREAT for curvy girls! It's classy, fun, sparkly and long enough to not be too short. Cute with dangly earrings - great with hair up or down!

Looser fit, comfortable in a 4 (normally wear a 6). Sometimes the sequins would get caught on themselves so be on the lookout. Loved the look, loved the pockets, tons of compliments! Heavy material, flattering if you've got a tummy! two differences from picture on model: 1. The ombre effect can barely be seen. The blue is more like a Navy. 2. The V isn't as deep as it looks: still plenty of cleavage, but if you're looking for something sexy and exaggerated this won't be it.
