Wore this for a date night! Veryyy thick fabric but the slits up the side made it sexy. Love the color and can be spiced up with a fun necklace/bag. I sized down and it was fine on but getting in and out was a struggle haha 

I wore this dress to work, but I would suggest wearing tights because the slit on each leg goes up high. It is heavy material, but has a silky liner so it was comfortable all day long. The top half of the dress is very tight and flattening. 

This dress is fine. Not great, not horrible. It is made of a very thick material that is a bit stiff and has absolutely no give. It's also shorter than I expected with a high side slit, so I wore tights to make it work appropriate. The arm holes were also a little big, so I threw on a cardigan. I wore this dress to work and I actually got quite a few compliments, but I am not confident that I'd rent it again.

I liked how fitted it was but definitely tight in the chest...and I don't have a big one. The fabric is like a jean material so pretty stiff. High side slit (FYI) that's probably pushing it for work but great for the weekend.

I would give this dress 3 1/2 stars if I could. The color is great, and the stitching and pockets on the front are really cute.  The fabric is really stiff - like unwashed Levis in the 1970s - and the neck rubbed when I sat down.  For the cut, I have a smaller chest and do better with more shape at the waist; I rated it too large for its boxy shape.  The slits on the sides are quite high, and since I live in a warm climate (and wanted to wear it immediately, lol), I wore a black slip as contrast; tights would be necessary for anyone over 5'5" who would be sitting down in the dress.  I received a couple of compliments, but I work for a university whose signature color is green, so it went over well at my work event.  

Rented for work but ended up wearing to a funeral. Lots of compliments on the color. Nice alternative to the typical black dress. Wore with black tights, and would have felt self-conscious without them due to the side slits. Stiff fabric is flattering but gaped a bit in the arm area. Would have liked to try one size down - typically wear a 10. Plenty of pockets, but not sure I have a need for boob pockets. The others came in handy for tissues and my phone.
