Perfect dress for many occasions.  It’s easy to dress up or down.   This dress has a lot of material but is still flattering.

Just needs a belt! Otherwise perfection. 

This was super pretty statement piece for one time rental. Very memorable. 

Gorgeous dress! Everyone loved this dress on me. I also rented in the cream and tan. I just didn't find it flattering and it's not the dress's fault. Volume just isn't my thing. Also didn't care for the way it was cut at the arms. 

I knew this was going to be kind of billowy and flowy and I had the perfect studded belt to tie everything together. This was how it might feel to wear a toga to work, but it was dressy and a good choice for an awards reception I had after work.

This dress was so stylish and well constructed. I added my own belt with it and that helped complete the look. It is a bit of a heavier dress so just be mindful of your weather.

Although this dress is super pleased with lots of material, loved the pockets and have worn it to work, church, vacay, brunch, etc - ended up purchasing 

This dress is definitely a statement piece. It looks great with the right accessories. To be honest I didn't get to wear it because I didn't have an event to wear it to and it's too nice for casual wear.

This was a hit but it definitely runs large in the waist

Absolutely.Loved wearing this dress, especially in front of a crowd. Professional yet adorable.

Also looked cute with a jean jacket when thesun went down. Rent it! You won’t be disappointed. 

I really enjoyed this dress.I do think it runs a bit large.When you sit down the top kind of puffs out.But overall a win.I added a belt.

This is a fun, versatile dress. Wore with boots and a blazer for work and then heels for a real estate photoshoot. Highly reccommend! 



I recently rented this gorgeous white sleeveless dress – the fit was perfect and it hugged my curves beautifully. The unique geode-like design added an eye-catching touch!

I paired it with a black jacket and boots for work – chic and professional. I can’t wait to wear it as a sundress in the summer with some statement jewelry and sandals.

Overall, a fantastic and versatile find – perfect for both work and weekend outings! Highly recommend!

I loved how much fabric made up the skirt of this dress. It made it feel so much more elegant than I imagined it would. Since I rented it in the winter time, I paired with western style tall boots and a leather jacket. Beware, if you’re conscientious of your mid section (like I am), this dress definitely will hide anything but I noticed in photos it kind of made me look pregnant if I stood a certain way - not necessarily a deal breaker for me but thought I would mention it. Would recommend and rent again.

This is super comfortable! So flowy and beautiful!

I love the style of this dress. It’s super flowy it can wrinkle, but not easily. I wore it to work and to a conference. Would wear again. Wore it with a black belt. 

One of my favorite rentals to date! So unique and very work professional- wore it for 2 separate work events (marketing and PR). Tons of compliments 

This dress fit perfectly. Love the fabric. Nice easy sway and I received a lot of compliments. Can be dressed up or down.

Yes, this dress was A LOT of fabric, but I wore it to the rodeo and it wasn’t hot at all. It wasn’t too long, either. It was a little loose in the waist, but a belt fixed that right up. Totally recommend!

I received many compliments but I felt like the massive amount of fabric was a little unflattering. 

I didn’t and up wearing because I felt it made me look heavy on top.  Nice fabric would be better on a taller frame. 

I adore this dress. I styled it with a long cardigan (not pictured) and wide belt. I felt beautiful and ready to take on the world!  So manifesting complements!

Def size down and will need to lift dress when climbing steps! 

Wore this to a spring outdoor bridal shower. Loved the way the dress felt and moved. If between sizes, size down as there is a lot of material so can feel overwhelming. 
Note: takes some effort to wear. Wrinkles are hard to steam out without affecting the pleats. Also since it is so flowy, would have to remember to grab the bottom so it didn’t get stuck in the car door!

Such a great dress it dresses up or down so easily. Just be careful as it’s see through  on the sides so don’t wear dark underwear. 

That’s the compliment I kept getting both times I wore this! Perfect fit in the bodice and waist (I’m 36AA, 25” waist), and perfect in the length (I’m 5’4”) hitting just above the ankles at the longest points. Lots of material in the skirt which made it feel super luxurious and swishy, and with the lining layers your undergarments cannot be seen (although I would still recommend wearing a nude tone). I’ll definitely rent this again!

This dress is unique and a bit edgy while still being elegant. The fabric was beautiful and holds it form since the cotton has structure due to the pleats. I didn't mind this though because it was a nice change from most other maxi/midi dresses I wear with a full, flowing skirt.

I did however mind that when I turned to the side my entire leg and dark thong were visible when I first tried it on. Maybe this is purposeful but the shear went all the way up to the seam under the belt I wore (dress did not come with belt in image). This transparency isn't evident from the front and back due to the thick pleated layers and the darker colors. The top was lined so transparency wasn't an issue. 

I don't understand why such a high end dress would not have a lining where it was obviously needed. The high/low shape of the skirt made finding a slip length difficult and unfortunately the slip length was very apparent (see arrow in photo) but imagine it without a slip. I wish someone would let me in on the secret of why this dress is see-through because I can't imagine that even a smaller figured person could make this look purposeful instead of just odd. However I only saw one other review mention wearing nude undergarments, which to me still wasn't enough camouflage, so maybe it is me? Or perhaps no one else saw themselves from the side? 

Overall I still enjoyed wearing this dress as a chic everyday look that  was still comfortable. It wasn't as flattering on me as some dresses, because it does have a lot of fabric in places where I don't need any extra, but the unique style won me over.

 Maybe next time I'll try the dress in the purple version.

I wore this at a work conference and I received so many compliments! From Starbucks barista to hotel staff to colleagues. It was such a great dress and I highly recommend it 

Wore this for family photos. Dress is heavy and structured despite being flowy. Wore it with a Celine belt and a leather Moto jacket. 

Very pretty but I didn’t end up wearing, as the event was an outdoor brunch. Way too many layers and hot.  

Would try again for a different event.  Definitely needed accessorizing.  

Could have sized down and I’m normally a 4 and a 2 was still too large.

We hosted a brunch for my dad's bday, wore this. I recommend getting a belt to wear with it. Was a bit large but it worked, would definitely size down next time. Lots of fabric but it was super unique and fun!

Fabulously well made and it shows.  The movement is incredible.  I belted it and wasn’t in love because the bulk was bulking. Better on taller and/or thinner. I loved wearing it bc of how well made, just couldn’t get it perfect in me.
