Loved the fit and material. It's such a unique and beautiful dress - perfect for a black-tie wedding. You'll likely need to wear boob tape bc the back drapes in a way that would show a bra strap, but the material is thick enough that going no-bra wasn't an issue! 

I was nervous the sequins would be itchy but no and I got so many compliments on this dress!!

Super comfy- and perfect length with a little heel- didn’t trip at all and able to dance- a little invisible tape for the shoulders just to make sure they didn’t slip of my shoulders and this dress was wonderful. Got SO many compliments!!

It’s fitted but not crazy tight like some black tie dresses. The color and design are stunning. It showed off my slender shoulders and upper back while making my bigger look bigger than it is and flattering my larger hips. It was the least uncomfortable black dress I tried on. I was very bloated that day from my period but still felt comfy. If I had the money I would buy it. Had to use fashion tape because I’m 36B and needed size 6 for my larger hips 

This dress is beautiful on. You may need double sided tape to keep the straps up. The dress was not too long on me, but my shoes got caught on the inner lining  in the back a few times. The sequins were a bit scratchy on my arms, but not too bad. 

It looks amazing!! What I do caution, though, is how warm it gets if you wear this gown outdoors. I secured the top and cowl back with fabric tape and just used nipple covers in lieu of a bra. 

I loved everything about this dress. The color, the fit, the length. As I expected, I had to use a lot of fashion tape and safety pins to keep my bra from showing in the back. I got lots of compliments at a wedding. 

Loved this dress.  So easy to wear, but other reviewers were right. The sequins are so painful. Really scratched the back of my arm.  Otherwise I loved this. 

My husband loved this dress, but I don't think it was particularly flattering. The sequins under the arms were scratchy, I had to fashion tape the straps to my shoulders so they didn't fall off (if they fall, it would expose your entire chest), and the fabric was a bit stiff for my liking. 

Loved this dress. The sequins did irritate my under arms a bit, but I was part of the wedding party so was wearing it for 12+ hours! Loved the open back and got tons of compliments

Wore to a winter fundraising gala. Slightly itchy and irritating to arms but not unbearable. Beautiful draping of back. Front needed adjusting. Perfect length. Lots of compliments all night. 

I love the dress; it is very beautiful, and I received so many compliments that day. However, since the only available size was 6, I ordered it. It fit me well around my hips, but the straps were a bit loose around my shoulders. That’s when I started feeling itchy due to the fabric. 

Made for me. Great movement and a beautiful gown. Was not itchy to me and did not chafe. Compliment after compliment. 

Really loved the look of this dress. The cowl neck on the top was a bit big/too much fabric but overall loved it!

Got so many compliments. Very comfortable. Love the cowl neck. Gorgeous color. Great for a California black tie wedding. 

Like others mentioned it is a scratchy dress, but I thought it was worth it considering the gorgeous fit, color, and sparkle. The only other negative was that the straps slid off my shoulders occasionally and leaning over was a bit of a no-no. All things considered I was thrilled with this dress for one-night only for this formal wedding event and would suggest it to others!

So elegant, but still sexy with the low back. The length was perfect with 3” heels, but I had to lift up the hem a bit while walking so as not to snag the sequins with my embellished sandals. I felt really pretty, not as easy at 65+ !  

wore this to reception of Indian wedding! so flattering and comfortable (only thing is the sequins can be itchy on skin around the straps). 

I loved this dress so much. It fits like a glove and just hangs on you - such a pretty light purple with the patterned sequin overlay too. Very fun for a formal affair. Wore to a Miami wedding. 

Loved this dress! I wore it for a black tie optional spring wedding and had so many compliments! Like others say it’s a little scratchy around the shoulder straps but not uncomfortable. I’m newly postpartum so my sizing is off. I probably could have worn a 10 but opted for the extra comfort of the 12. It was a little loose around the bust and I needed to use fashion tape to keep the straps up but overall a favorite! I will definitely be renting again! 

Wore this dress to a black-tie wedding & felt very beautiful. My only complaints are the sequins by the arms are a little scratchy at times & I needed fashion tape to keep the straps from falling down. Once I was having fun at the wedding though, I never noticed the sequins or the straps.

Wore for a semi formal wedding and got a lot of compliments on the style & unique back dip fabric. But my under arms were red and scratched an hour in because of the rough itchy sequins. Im really tall and the length was almost right but a little short.

I ended up not wearing this. The dress looked gorgeous on, but the sequins rubbed against my arms and shoulders in such an annoying way. It made the dress unwearable for my event. It was also a little too big in the waist, but length was perfect for me with heels on. 

A beautiful dress, the size 12 was a little loose to be honest. Also, the sequins are quite scratchy on the straps and armpit areas. I wore small blister pads to alleviate some of the direct skin contact. I also used a safety pin to secure the top so the girls weren't on full display at the wedding. Probably should have sized down.
