This is the one to get if you want best dressed guest. It has this glittery shine to it but not in a cheap or costume way. So pretty I felt like a fairy

I mostly loved this dress -very comfortable and great for a summer wedding in NYC.  I did feel like my boobs looked a bit squished but my husband disagreed.  If I rented again I might consider a L instead of a M, but of course no bra means they do need to be held in place so...

The fabric is beautiful and moves beautifully, but the cut isn’t as flattering on me. As someone petite, I look for dresses that create a taller, more slender silhouette through their fit and proportions—this one had the opposite effect.

I loved the color, the shimmer, and the fit of this dress. Only thing I didn’t like was the black strap that helps to hang it kept coming out and it was very obvious. It also was a little confusing to put on at first, but I just looked at the photos of the model and was able to figure it out easily. 

I love how unique and vibrant the dress was. But the fun Strap was a little awkward and the lining underneath was too long and visible. 

This dress fit me well, holds well too, I didn’t need to wear a bra. It’s comfortable too. One thing that bothered me was the black hanger loops under the dress that kept coming out. 

I loved this dress so much! It was so unique and perfect for w beachy summer wedding. I am a 36DD and the top area was a little but tight but it worked well because I didn't have to wear a bra. Highly recommend! 

Wore to a formal garden wedding. It was perfect! Larger chest girlies would benefit from some fashion tape to hold the dress up, I had to pull it up a bunch all night. So fun to twirl!  

Wore it to a destination wedding in the south of France! The evening got super chilly (58F), so I paired it with a cashmere blend shawl, but overall it was very good.

I LOVE this dress, but I didn’t wear it to the event I rented it for. The skirt is beautiful and it makes me feel like a princess, and the thicker material meant that I didn’t have to wear a bra/pasties or shape wear. I chose a different dress over this one because I didn’t feel comfortable with the asymmetrical straps. I feel great in one shoulder dresses but I felt that I was adjusting the straps too much, and when I adjusted the straps the opening in the back of the dress would shift from the center. I would try renting again for another event. The dress has a shimmer to it but it’s not overbearing.

Loved the look & the fit. Only complaint is the right side fell down a lot despite tightening the straps. Had a couple close calls 

Very comfortable and pretty! I'm 5'0", so this fit like a maxi dress on me which was perfect. If you have a bigger chest,  the neckline will shift so I would use tape to keep everything in place. 

Beautiful dress with great movement. Couldn’t wear a strapless bra because of the cut out in the back but didn’t feel like I needed too. 

The yellow is beautiful and the hint of sparkle is fun! The neck line is really unique - got lots of compliments. It’s a bit difficult to put on (over the head for sure) and actually accented my curves way more than I thought it would. Definitely hugs but wore some spanks and felt great - the movement of the dress with the flare at the bottom makes it quite elegant. Might not wear for a long day but it was perfect as a guest! 

Wore it to a wedding, got tons of compliments. The fabric does start to stretch a little in the chest area after wearing it, so I did have to pull up my dress a couple of times, but nothing that hindered my look/ night. Definitely absolutely use fashion tape!! (I used tape and I still had to adjust a bit) 

Loved the fit of this, so flattering and great summer color! Worked great for me 7 months post partum. Was easily able to pump due to the stretch of fabric. 

I thought the shape was flattering and it was pretty comfy! The inner black straps (the ones you hang the dress with) kept poking out, but overall not a huge deal. I wore with mixed metal since the patterning is silver. 

Great for a summer wedding, did feel like I was adjusting the strap around the neck often 

Love the color and the unusual strap design. A little tricky to get on but very comfortable. 

Got dressed up with the girls for an early summer orchestra performance 

I wore this dress to a wedding in Big Sur. It was kind of giving Belle from beauty and the beast, but adding the sash made it feel more vintage and less princess. This dress has a serious twirl factor on a dance floor, which was also a major win. Didn’t need to wear a bra, but i did have to pull at the top throughout the evening because it kept sliding down. 

While it was tought to get on and off the fit is beautiful! Great for dancing and comfortable to sit in. Was able to weat without a bra! 

I loved this dress — such a stunning fit, a bit hard to get on but absolutely gorgeous!

I loved this dress and how it flowed so beautifully! The straps were a unique touch to the dress but they were such a pain to figure out how to get them to look correct. It took some fussing with the dress to figure it out (making the straps longer and shorter with someone’s help).

The chest area was slightly tight so I ended up sizing up for comfortability.

The fit of the dress so so amazing and made me feel gorgeous. I didn’t realize the dress would be sparkly but it ended up looking great. The cross over strap was a little tricky and I had to get assistance to get it over my head!! 

I loved the dress I just found the straps to be a bit loose other than that I received a lot of compliments on the dress 

I’m usually a size 8. The medium was really snug, so wore the large for some room. It’s a comfortable and flirty dress! With the large I needed to wear a strapless bra, which didn’t show at all. The strap that goes across the chest kept twisting. The sparkles weren’t overwhelming at all, and paired nicely with silver shoes and accessories. I got lots of compliments!

Dress is very comfortable, no need to wear a bra. It lays very nicely and is nice material. Good for dancing all night!

Perfect fit, curvy, lightweight and comfortable. I used stick-on bra cups since the back was low and cutout. So many compliments!

I wore this to a Summer garden wedding and it was great. Light and comfortable, perfect for dancing, and on trend in Butter yellow. The neckline took me a second to figure out but added a cool point of difference. Would rent again 

Comfortable and unique! Great color with a bit of bling. Loved it

It fit so well and had such a fun twirl. The fabric had a little bit of stretch and with where the skirt hit my waist I wasn't self conscious about my stomach the whole night. There is silver in the dress, so went that direction for accessories 

Just not the most flattering in the midsection. Although it fit perfectly (both the XS and S fit good but XS was better - pictured here) I felt like I would have needed really strong shape ware around my stomach to comfortably wear it   Also on both dresses I got, the lining falls lower than the outer shell of the dress that really bothered me. I can see it in most of the review pics. Straps are a little strange and I struggled to get it on but once it was on it fit great. 

Loved this dress! Rented the purse with it and bought a simple shawl from amazon to complete the look!
