Not a date night outfit but felt feminine and artsy for networking and a business happy hour . Other woman will appreciate it. Not really form fitting or sexy so wouldn't wear on a date.

Great dress! Had to wear a tank top under for the open back. Dress was too short (even for me at 5'3") for showing homes....especially for bending down to open lockboxes. 

I rented this for a fancy cocktail party, and while I loved the colors, pattern, feel and floaty movement of the material, it felt a bit precariously short on my 5'11 frame. Had the weather called for tights, I might have given it a go. For the rest of the fit, I suppose I could have sized down, but I thought this style was more suited to being loose on one's frame. Anyhow, it's a lovely dress, and I highly recommend it to ladies a few inches shorter, a few years younger, or a few degrees braver than myself!

I rented a 6 because it was the only size left, but a 4 would have fit better. The draw string around the waist puckers when it's tied too tightly, so the dress ended up fitting pretty loosely but it was super comfortable and unfussy.
The back is open so I ended up pinning it closed where my bra strap was.

Such a comfortable dress! Wore it for the rehearsal dinner of a wedding in May and it was perfect 

Really fun pattern and silky material, but it was super clingy and static-y, so i was constantly pulling at it. I love the high neck but the open back makes it hard to wear a bra. Fun for a photo shoot though!

This dress is AMAZING! Super comfy and comes with pockets!! I love the adjustable string in the middle so you can get the fit your looking for. The length was perfect on me. The open back was an added plus if your not comfortable with that a nice bandu will work. If you are busty do size up for a comfortable fit.

I've rented this silhouette previously in DVF dresses and it did not disappoint. Fits runs large on this but cinch waist fixed that. The color definitely stood out on a gray day. I wore a backless bra because of the back opening and it worked perfectly. Not ideal for winter but the colors didn't go well with black tights.

This dress looks best with a jacket of some sort over the top to help give it some shape. (Plus, the back has a long slit in it, so your back totally shows making it hard to wear a bra...) Once I paired it with a denim jacket (also RTR), I was in love. A little static problem in the winter, but over all it looked really stunning and is a head-turner. Comfortable, too!

I like the pattern and colors of this dress, but didn't find it flattering. Because of the open back I had to wear a black tank top underneath. The fabric was very thin and clingy (hard to wear with tights!) It was hard to pull the waist tight enough, so I overall just felt like it was not a flattering shape. That said, I still wore it to a dinner and it was a fun pattern to wear around.

Pros: incredibly comfy, I sort of pulled off not wearing a bra, comfortable material, amazing color/pattern, lots of compliments. 
Cons: ran a little big, was also longer than I expected. Slash went all the way down the back so I couldn't wear a bra and material was right on the line of being thick enough to do so.
Overall: really fun dress, would rent again and wear to multiple types of events- easily dressed up or down. DVF knows what she's doing.

Darling dress that's easy to throw on and go! Wore a bandeau underneath since there is a large back opening.  Great coloring, loved this!  

Super cute dress. I'm between a 6 and 8 and the 8 probably would have been better. The back is wide open so with a larger chest I felt like it opened more than usual.
