Wore this dress to Venice for my family photos and the color popped! Loved everything about this dress, the design is very flattering, stretchy material made it very comfortable, and classy!!! Highly recommended for anyone! 

Fit perfectly, and looks great in pictures. The dress is low cut, good for a night out but otherwise, you may need to pin it. 

This was perfect. The color, the tone, the material. So classic and elegant. Loved this.  

Very flattering, true to size, and the color is vibrant. (Gets warm in direct sunlight) 

Wore this dress to a MBA formal. I had read the reviews and was expecting it to be short and low cut, so I decided to go with boob tape, double sided tape, and shorts under just in case I dropped it too low. It was short, but it was manageable and it helped me show off my legs. The top was low cut and gapped when I sat, the double sided tape helped a lot but I would just say be mindful. Overall it was very comfortable, I felt great and got lots of compliments! 

I usually wear a dress size 14, but the 14 was pretty short to wear as the hem ended right below my butt. The fit was great, just too short. The backup size 16 ended up fitting a lot better, lengthwise. Got lots of compliments. You can wear it bra-less or with a push-up as the plunging neckline is not too revealing. It's a great cold weather dress. 

I rented this for a work holiday party at a casino. This dress is the perfect combination of fun and sexy with an amazingly bold and unique color. It fits like a glove while remaining soft and comfy, and the material is thick enough for winter and drapes perfectly to hide any belly you're self conscious about. The length is a bit short and could be an issue for a taller person (I wore a pair of bike shorts underneath and had no issue). Also the top is cut pretty low, but nothing a few safety pins couldn't easily take care of. Seriously, this dress was hard to return because I loved it so much! 

This dress hugged my curves perfectly, while giving me room to eat and dance! I will say it way short on me. I could have used another inch in length. I'd recommend to size up if you want a more modest fit. Beautiful color, soft velvet. I loved every moment in this dress! 

I loved this dress so much! It was so flattering and fun. The color was gorgeous and I got so many compliments on it. I wore it for a photoshoot and loved how the dress came up in photos! 

I work on camera and this popped really well! Only weird thing about it is that the bunching/wrap was in a weird spot for me because I have a short torso for my body. Enjoy!! 

Amazing color and textured dress but if you have a butt then the skirt gets very short 

I wore this dress for a my work awards dinner and got so many compliments. 

Great for hour glass figures, perhaps needs some fashion tape if you are going to be dancing or moving around 

I initially tried it on and thought it would never work, but my bff helped me with fashion tape which made a huge difference. Shapewear is a must too. Tons of compliments at dinner. 

I love this dress. It reflects the light beautifully for a blu oltremare effect. Interesting cut and very forgiving with the lining of the dress. Very low cut so I wore with a black top underneath for my flat breast and formal affair. 

The blue color is beautiful. The velvet material made this dress fit perfect. The liner could be a little tricky but ones I pulled it in place it stayed in place! Loved the length.

I could've worn the 0, but went with the 2 since it was for my partner's work holiday party. It was a gorgeous & comfortable dress that showed just the right amount of skin. The 0 rode up a bit, but the 2 stayed in place all night. I definitely recommend for a holiday party! 

Love this dress. So easy to wear yet stunning. 

I am 5ft 3 in 142 lbs. I thought it fit well. I felt comfortable, and sexy. I didn't have any issues with the front closure.  Also I have arms that don't fit in anything with sleeves and this fit perfectly.

I loved this dress! It was so flattering and comfortable. I got tons of complements and felt great all night, even after eating a huge meal. Would definitely rent again.

Beautiful cocktail dress and color! Warm and gorgeous 

Loved this dress so much! Comfortable being out of the stretchy velvet material and the color was to die for. I received so many compliments too! It was fairly low cut so I did wear sticky boobs and sticky tape so I didn't have to worry about anything. 

I love this dress so much, I might have to buy it. It's so comfortable and figure flattering. Definitely recommend!

Perfect size 6 fit. The color is a beautiful shade of blue. Very well-made dress. I would totally rent it again. For reference, I'm usually a size Small / 6 in dresses. 

Such a gorgeous dress! Fit and excellent for cooler weather. Loved the color, would rent again! 

This dress was exactly what I was looking for and fit like a glove. I am short, so the length was not an issue. The only con is what everyone else has said - I absolutely had to add a pin at the chest area. It does not attach anywhere up top and only where it wraps at the hip. I received many compliments. 

Compliments all night long! The color of this dress is vibrant and beautiful. The dealing of the fabric is very flattering. It's pretty low cut so boob tape is a must but would wear over and over again if I had enough places to wear it. 10/10

It fit good, plenty of movement in my arms. 

Ok I thought this was a pretty basic dress when I put it on without my hair or makeup done. Flash forward to my friend's wedding and wow! This dress was an absolute showstopper. It's comfortable so you can dance all night (but maybe not bend over since it is a little short). I can't tell you how many compliments I received. Don't overthink it, rent it. 

I absolutely loved this dress. It was not my first choice but the one I wanted was not available. This was my second choice and I was nervous about it being fitted but it was very flattering. I did need to pin the top to keep the girls in. I was complimented on the dress all evening and again once I posted pictures. It was extremely comfortable and I would rent again. 

This dress is amazing! Great fabric, details, fit and such a pretty bright color. Most of my weight is in my tummy and I'm always looking for ways to conceal that. This dress is magic! The only thing to know is it's very short so if you're between sizes or taller size up for length! 

The dress is so flattering - lots of room in the bust area and a bit short, but I absolutely love this dress. I am between sizes 2-4 (quarantine weight) but this dress fit me very well. I will definitely be renting again - I am actually considering buying it. The color is so vibrant, fabric is so soft, everything about this dress is perfect!!

Very stylish and an amazing color. I wore it to a Christmas dinner and got lots of compliments. It was a bit large and I probably should have worn the 8. The color was spectacular. 

Great for a birthday dinner in the winter. Knot covered up any bloating issues I had that day from drinking haha!

For true to size, maybe a little large as a I wore the back up smaller size. The dress was a little shorter than I would have liked it, but overall very comfy! I’m 5’8 for reference! 

This dress was perfect for a night out. Super comfortable and fun. The color is amazing. 

The velvet is cozy warm, the deep royal blue is stunning, but ultimately this deep V was a real pain. It’s short too, so between the 4 and the 6, I went with the 6.

The 16 was a bit big, so I would’ve needed a 14. Concerned that the length would be even shorter with a smaller size though. I knew the length before I rented, and I’m short enough that I could’ve gotten away with it with tights, but it was a bit shorter than I really prefer. Beautiful blue velvet dress though! 

Great color and flattering but the wrap part of the dress is not adjustable. Beware when sitting down. 

Dress was a good choice for a winter wedding. I usually wear a 6 but it was way too short, so I went with the 8. Had to use a safety pin up too like other reviewers. 

This was my 2nd choice dress. It was super flattering and fun for a fall wedding. Definitely need fabric tape for the bust and tights to keep the dress in place while dancing. 

Definitely short, definitely low cut. I used boob tape to keep it in place and that worked well. I’m a 38F. If it weren’t for the tights, I probably wouldn’t have worn it because of how short it is but it is very flattering and beautiful color- lots of compliments! 

I normally love black halo dresses, but this did not fit me at all. It was both too big and too small in places. The top is really low cut (as you can see in the photo) - I am petite but it basically opened to my stomach. And then the dress is weirdly short compared to the fit on the model. It’s too bad bc the fabric and color were gorgeous. 

Great dress but I had to keep pulling it closed all night. I wore a regular bra and it kept showing. Good dress if you’re looking to show lots of cleavage. If not, safety pin needed. 

Great dress. Color is unreal. Really comfy. I will say it is hot (temp wise) and I am smaller on top (36B) so I had to safety pin the top. Could have worn a 6x possibly. 

Loved the color & soft velvet material. Dress was for a Valentine's weekend & helped keep me warm. Dress did great at hiding my stomach & hugged all my curves. Agreed with reviews that it's extremely low cut & I was popping out at the top. I'd suggest fashion tape so you're not having to constantly readjust! I'd rent again as I loved it overall. 

Loved this dress and was very comfortable. Only complaint is that I had to pin the v because otherwise all of my chest would be out. 

Super cute, comfortable dress but it ran so short!! Ahhh I was bummed. I would've absolutely loved this dress for the wedding but it wasn't long enough. 

The size of the dress fit good so I'm afraid if I went up a size it would be long enough but wouldn't fit my body. 

Great dressing overall but it was shorter than expected and you definitely need something to keep the top together. 

The overall fit was great. I wish I had body tap though for the top. The right side of the top kept trying to open up. I felt amazing in this dress though and almost bought it to keep. 

Pros: This dress was very pretty, and the color was awesome! The long sleeves and super soft velvet material made it great for a fall wedding. I think it could be super sexy for a cocktail party or girls' night out.
Cons: The fit was a little off for my body style. It was short, very short, tights were a must. The bust area fit big and hung a bit too low. I ended up wearing it with a bralette underneath allowing me to feel a little more covered up for a family wedding. 

i really liked this dress, it's a nice blue and is super unique but i think you have to be larger chested in order to keep the top in place. when sitting and slouching forward, you can see into the dress from the side so i would have definitely been exposing myself to the wedding had i chosen this dress. it's super comfy and fits nicely otherwise, just didn't want to adjust it or worry about it all night
