I love the ruffles and the pattern. The fabric has a nice weight creating nice flow. Can be dressed up or down.

I loved everything about this dress. It was so fun and flirty, perfect for my Spring magazine release party! 

The pros: substantial gorgeous fabric,  lovely drape and swing, super cute and fun! So many people asked me about it and complimented me on how great it was!
The Cons: it arrived with the ruffle completely folded in half and sticking straight out from the dress . It looked as if it was pressed incorrectly by the dry cleaner. Easy fix, I took an iron on medium with a little water for steam and pressed it back open. Next, it IS very challenging to get on by yourself! I wanted to wear it strapless so the first time I put it on I just tucked the straps in, then I proceeded to squirm around for several minutes trying to get it zipped. It never felt right and started to bother me after about 1.5 hours So the 2nd time I decided to use the straps. It was slightly easier to zip with straps holding it up. Turns out the first time I didn't have it high enough!
Once it was on and zipped, It really was fabulous and the minute or two of struggle was completely forgotten! Oh! And I was able to slip the straps off my arms and tuck them into the dress so it was still able to be strapless!!!

I'm very small up top and I loathe when tops cause skin and fat to protrude past clothing (not a muffin top, but an underarm muffin top?) on me. This is a VERY heavy dress so the straps were the only way the dress stayed up on me, but the fit was super tight under my arms...I really LOVE the style and think I'll try to size up and see if that creates more harmony. It was too uncomfortable on me to wear and I wasn't wearing a bra either. 

I loved everything about this dress, except the fact that I couldn't get it zipped all the way!   I took a gamble and ordered a smaller size (since my size wasn't available), but it didn't fit my bust.  I will definitely order again, just in my true size!

This dress would be especially pretty on someone tall.  I'm 5'2, and while I liked the way it looked on me, a taller frame would accentuate the beautiful hem lines!

Wore it to New Orleans got lots of compliments, I little small up top had to go with out a bra. Very comfy

This is a gorgeous and unusual dress! I sized up because of other reviews that said it ran small through the bust, and I'm a 34D--it's true that it's hard to zip, but once it's on, you need the extra snugness to keep the dress up without resorting to the un-chic straps. Next time I rent it--and there will be a next time--I'll go with my true size and hope I don't have to do quite so much tugging.

Such a beautiful dress. Fits true to size with no stretch in the bodice. I'm between a 6 and an 8 usually and the 44 fit great. Be warned: this is not a dress you can unpack and throw on. The 'frills' require starching and pressing to keep in place and may still be drooping a bit by the end of the evening. The fabric is surprisingly thick and heavy. There was also some minor fraying on the edges of the fabric that needed trimming before wear. Otherwise, very comfortable and pretty!

I loved the bright bold colors and very pretty, the only reason I didn't wear it was bcos i got the wrong size. But I will rent it again with the right size. 

I wasn't able to wear this it was to small for me. 
It's just beautiful. 

LOVE this dress, but it is VERY small in the bust area.  I found that I had to use the optional "straps" (which may actually be hanger ties, but they worked well enough as straps) to achieve a pleasing sihlouette in the bust area.  The dress was tea-length on my 5'9" long torso/ short legged frame.  Aside from that, the dress is a stunner.  I wore it for a few wedding-related appointments scheduled on the same day, and I received complements wherever I went.  

This was a pretty print, but ultimately I didnt end up wearing it. It was a bit bag like, quite unfitted. And it was quite a lot more formal than I anticipated because of the heavy weight of the material. I didn't want to pack it and take up that much space & weight in my suitcase. 

I checked this as a replacement dress (in case my selection wasn't available). When I realized it was coming, I should've canceled because I typically do not like bandeau, and this was no exception. Dress would be perfect for maternity. Or a luau. Ran large in my opinion. It came with small spaghetti straps but I didn't like them because they seemed to cut into my shoulders because the dress fabric was heavy.

THis dress was pretty but hard to get on. The top ran very small, and I am not large chested (32B/C). I think if I had sized up it would have been too large everywhere else. Also the dress itself was very heavy, I could not have worn it without the straps, which didn't seem significant enough to carry the weight of the dress. I wanted to love it but ended up not wearing it. 

The dress has a beautiful color palette and flow, but was very heavy.  I don't think it would have stayed up, especially for me who is a bit busty.  Wished it was a better match for what I was looking for.
