Another one I loved so much I had to add it to my collection. I used a little bit of fashion tape to try to stick the top to my body but in the Connecticut humidity, it didn’t quite hold but I was able to keep it all covered. It is Australian sizing if I remember correctly so I always check the size chart and size up.

I ended up getting this dress last minute for a wedding because the  dress I had ordered was not available. I am so glad I was able to get this dress because I initially overlooked it. The top was a little big and I needed fashion tape but otherwise it was great. 

I’m usually a 4-6 in bottoms and generally a S in tops (M if I want slightly oversized). Trying a size 10, this dress could not zipper up on the bottom and the top was laughably huge. Would only work if I had a size 0 bottom and a DDD top. Returned. 

I did not like this dress. It was too tight in the hips and too loose in the waist which created a weird dip in the center around my stomach. The slit was an awkward length, much shorter than in the photo (just barely to my knee and I am tall) and the fabric looks cheaper in person. It was confusing to get on and looked surprisingly conservative. Maybe it would be more flatting on someone with bigger boobs and smaller hips. 

I fastened a safety pin to the top to feel more secure (which I’m used to doing since I’m small chested anyway). Otherwise a very flattering fit. Lots of compliments. 

A little tight on the hips. Sz up if you have a bum or wider hips.

Loved this dress! The halter and cut was so cute, fit great, loved the print. Lots of complements on this one!

I’m going to go against most reviews here. I am a size 0 and ordered the 6 per the European sizing for a South Florida wedding. This dress was huge on me. The neck piece was way too long. The waist and hips were baggy. I wore pasties, pinned the center material, and also pinned the neck line. This dress would not have been wearable if it weren’t for fashion tape and safety pins. It was a lot of work but was very happy with the way it ended up looking. 

I love the slit and the way the front of the dress wraps around my neck and creates like a hammock for my lady lumps. It was a bit tight so I might size up next time. Hopefully that’ll just create more space in the hip and thigh area without making the chest area too loose. 

Loved this dress… it was a bit out of my comfort zone, but ended up being a great dinner option on vacation. I was going to use boob tape, but it didn’t work (user error) and I was fine wearing no bra. 

My only frustration is the top is a bit bigger so I did have to do some pinning but it worked out great!

I did not wear this dress it fit everywhere but I think it is meant for someone taller. The front section that covers my breast was hanging in the middle a bit. I could have made it work but I would have been worried about exposing myself. 

Sizing on this is odd - the top was way too big for me with the bottom half being too tight around the hips. Curvy girls beware! Would be pretty on the right body type. 

Really fun dress and got lots of compliments. If you’re super busty, it could be revealing so just important to keep that in mind depending on where you’re wearing it. I sized up based on reviews and glad I did. 

So cute. I’m usually a size 8-10 but I sized up. I think a 10-12 would have been just right but used boob tape to make it fit right in the top. A tiny bit short for me. I’m 5’9 though and 155 lbs. bought a cute green clutch. Thin material good for spring. 

Shocked that i loved this dress! Didn’t wind up wearing to april wedding, but would be very appropriate/comfortable for a summer event. Didn’t feel like my boobs were going to pop out or anything, which surprised me. The hip area is a little tight, doesn’t have any stretch. Give it a shot!

Reading the reviews I decided to size up but I honestly should have gone for my normal size. I got a US8 and a US10, ended up wearing the 8 but had to do some strategic pinning. The dress was just right in the hips, too big in the waist and too long in the straps. Pinning the waist and using a generous amount of double sided tape made it work for me. This dress is backless so I also used fashion tape to make an X shaped bra.

This dress was unique and fun but a little awkward in the chest area, if you’re larger busted you’ll want an adhesive bra or tape. 

After reading all the reviews I sized up two sizes and was still able to wear it out but it was a little big. I think the perfect fit is sizing up one size.

This dress was super fun and worked well on my small busted frame with some fashion tape. I wore kitten heels and the length was just right so be aware if you're no the taller side.

Wore a size 10. A bit loose at the top and tight around the hips. Loved the look but won’t likely rent again. 

Gorgeous dress. Felt like the life of the party in this dress! I will rent again but will have to use boob tape! Lots of unfortunate nip slips!

I usually wear a size 2 or 4 and the 6 fit me like a glove. I got lots of compliments. Wore it to a fall wedding. 

I loved the lightweight fabric, low back, and cute cutout. The top was a smidge too loose on me since I am petite but it wasn’t unreasonable. I used fashion tape to tape the sides near my armpits and in front to hold the top in place. While both dresses fit (size 8 and 10), I had more breathing room in the size 10. So i ended up wearing that. I am normally a size 2/4 (26/27 waist) and I am 5’1”. Overall, a flirty comfortable dress that’s different than your usual wedding guest dress. 

I wore this at a wedding in las Vegas. It was so light and comfortable for the hot weather. The wrap top is one single piece that gets twisted overhead so I did have to tie it up to shorten a little bit to fit my torso. Would definitely wear again!

Loved this dress! It's a sporty floral with a great shape. Someone told me I was the wedding's best dressed (besides the bride of course!). 

It does run very small. I might have bought the dress if it weren't for issues with the fit. I normally wear a 4 and got the 6. It just barely zipped up. The top part then was a bit loose but a carefully placed safety pin behind the neck collar fixed that up. Once all that was done the fit was great.

a stunning dress! I wore a size 8 (typically size 2 in US sizes). A bit snug on my hips as other mentioned. Definitely need boob tape, but I am small chested so wasn't too worried about anything falling out there.

Looks weird until you zip it up and then it looks amazing! The recommendations for boob tape were helpful, and I’d recommend self tanner as well…
I’m usually a size 2/4 and this fit VERY tight around my butt and I could barely sit, so size up even more for a seated dinner!

Loved wearing this dress for my birthday party. I was worried about not wearing a bra with the dress since I have a larger chest, but some breast petals and fashion tape kept everything in place! As the other reviews say, definitely size up. I'm usually a 4-6 and I wore a 12. Fine for short girls! I wore flats.

Sexy but runs very small. I am 5'7 and 117-118 lbs and usually wear a 0 or 2. I had to wear a 6 for this. Not very forgiving. Boob tape is a MUST! But really sexy and fun 

Very fun, unique dress that makes a statement. Very light material making it perfect for hot weather. 

This dress is so fun and unique! I got a ton of compliments throughout the night. It runs SMALL though. I'm normally a 4/6 and I wore an 8. It's a little tight in the hips too, but the high slit makes it easy to dance/walk.

Runs small. I'm usually a size 4-6, ended up wearing the 10, but wish I would have gone up one more size for the hips and thighs. Otherwise, love this dress! Received compliments all evening. Bottom line: Size up 3 or so sizes for the best fit! 

I thrive from reviews so I hope this helps. I'm normally a size 2.. 5'3 129lb and flat chested, 32a.  I went with the UK 8 and it fit perfect with no bra . I would say it's equivalent to a size US 2. Like the other reviews says it runs on the smaller side in the waist so I went up one size with the UK 10 as backup. Very fun dress and def stands out in pics! 

I ordered this on a whim and I ended up loving it. Fits true to size but I agree with the other reviews - it is snug around the butt/hips, so may not work for super curvy body types. It was very comfortable- once I taped down the edges of the top, I felt free to dance my heart out. Highly recommend. 

Loved it! Got lots of compliments. 

I'm 5'4", 120lbs athletic build and have 32D bust. I had to use LOTS of boob tape and double sided tape to make it work but it was worth it. 

Also listen to the reviews and size up a few sizes bc it does run small.

Usually a size 2/4. Fit like a glove. Used fashion tape (highly recommend). I'm 5'3 & wore 2 inch heels and the length was perfect. Comfortable enough to dance and move around. My favorite rental by far.
