I am completely obsessed with this dress!! Wore to an award ceremony in Hawaii and it was super comfortable and flattering. You do have to adjust the top a bit throughout the night, and there’s some risk of side boob from the underarm area. Wouldn’t want to dance in, but loved for my use case and ended up buying 

Wore to an awards show and felt comfortable and elegant 

I wore this dress for a late summer wedding, but was a little unsure of the color. BUT WOW! Definitely not a color you see at a lot of weddings these days and it was perfect. The dress fit great and was a perfect length with my heels! 

8 months pregnant and wore to a formal wedding. Got lots of complements on the color 

Perfect fit. I cannot get over how comfortable the stress was.

Very gorgeous dress, especially if you have a medium to dark skin color. Runs a little big and is long. Hugs yor curves. 

I was worried about this one because of the other reviews but I have to say it worked so well for me. I may to buy it! 

Loved this dress for a formal wedding. Other reviews mentioned they didn’t think the material was formal enough, but I thought it was fine! It was definitely a little heavy but I was at a chilly California wedding so it was nice! Got the long (I’m 5’11) and it was perfect length with average heels!

don’t wear it if it’s going to be humid, I got pretty sweaty but i’m also pregnant. I loved how it looked on my belly tho and recommend it for pregnant mamas, it has plenty of stretch 

As others have mentioned, the dress is made of a knit material. I sized down and didn't have any issue with fit. I wore it to a wedding that lasted from 4pm to 2am and the dress fitted me beautiful the entire time. No issue with sagging, probably due to sizing down. It is a bodycon fit so keep that in mind. It was not very long and I wore flats with it.

Size down! I got a small and the knit fabric is so heavy and loosens as you wear it, it’s also soooo stretchy. I did love wearing this dress however and got so many compliments on it!

I got a medium and it fit great! But it definitely stretches through the night. I loved this dress and felt amazing! Got so many compliments. Color is beautiful and it was so comfortable. It is a bit heavy so it will stretch. I’d size down!! Even if pregnant ;)

I’m usually between a small and a medium. I’m 5’9” 135lbs athletic build. I wore the small here bc the fabric is a sweater fabric so has a lot of stretch. It also is heavy. I ended up getting a safety pin from the bathroom attendant to pin to my strapless bra which worked fine. I probably would have used more tape or worn a different bra but I was working with what I had since I was out of town. 

It was such a gorgeous dress I had such high hopes but I think the problem is it runs too large and is so heavy. The dress would not stay up despite safety pins and 20 pieces of garment tape. I also wore a bra because maybe my small chest was part of the problem? I couldn't dance and could barely walked it just dragged and fell down with every step.Also I'm tall 5' 7" and the regular was super long with heels. Don't recommend!

You’ll  keep pulling up the top all if youre dancing ; doesn’t hold with fashion tape  but otherwise you ll be fine. Super light weight . Could be a beach cover up. You need to wear a slip or shorts under neath AND you can’t wear a regular bra

Dress was stunning and very comfortable, but decided to go with another dress after some reviews shared that this dress stretched through the night and was falling

Worked for an event but throughout fabric started stretching so keep that in mind 

The fabric is kind of heavy and definitely expands through the night. It’s a cute look! Super long. I’m 6’ and it was hitting the floor with heels. Hugs the curves but gentle on the belly ;) 

The color is such a standout shade in person. I ordered the long version, but I could have definitely sized down. At 15 weeks pregnant, it still had plenty of room to stretch. The top fit a little awkwardly for me, and while it’s a great last-minute option, I didn’t find it quite right for a black-tie event; the fabric felt a bit too bodycon for that level of formality. That said, it’s a fun, bold color and would be perfect for a dressy cocktail occasion.

I wanted to love this dress, but the fabric is unfortunately extremely unflattering if you have even the smallest curves in the stomach area.
It shows everything.  I felt it wouldn’t photograph well and show shadows.

Beautiful color. Ended up wearing something else, but got the impression it was heavy material and would’ve been hard to dance in. Usually size S but got a XS which was better. Also needed spanx bc the material wasn’t hitting well 

No way to wear a bra or any under clothes.   It was sexy.   My husband loved it-   But I wasn’t going to a formal event with no under clothes on.   You have to be thin to rent this dress.  I ultimately did not wear it.   But it looked so good on.  

Really liked how this fit me, would defo rent again for another event. It requires seamless underwear and is very stretchy. Sadly didn't get any pics

I'm an hourglass/pear shape, and I have to be careful with fitting things around my hips, but this was perfect. Smoothed down any bumps and really accentuated my curves.

I loved this dress. It was very flattering and received so many compliments. Size down.

Love this material, the color, the fit!  Great dress!

Super cute and I felt cute in it! But make sure that you either have on seamless underwear or are able to go without underwear. 

Wore this at 7 months pregnant for a black tie wedding and LOVED it!! The cut, color, fabric - everything was so great. Got so many compliments!! 

I was tugging to keep the dress in place by the end of the night. But it was a great color

Loved the dress and received so many compliments. It will fall down while you dance though because the material is on the heavier side 

Body hugging, so, spanx may be a friend for the night 😃

Did not wear because it would be a pain to yank up all night 

Lovely, easy to travel with slinky and comfy fabric, bold color, just not suited to my color-palette (and maybe height too). For someone a little taller that looks great in bold purple, this is the dress!
