Loved wearing this dress to a gala this past weekend. Was so fun on the dance floor. True to size. Was tight on the top even though it wasn’t strapless (have rented other dress the population dresses that are similar, so was prepared for it) so I would recommend sizing up if you are larger chested.

Really pretty. I could not zip myself into it, but it was comfortable enough once I was in. The sequins are a little scratchy, and I kind of felt like I was going to junior prom.

Wore this for my brothers wedding in humid hot weather - super comfortable to dance all night in, did not overheat (dress is lined to thigh length and then overlay is sheer but you really can’t see through), and received so many compliments. I didn’t think it was itchy like others said. Would recommend. 

True to size, except in chest area. If large busted, size up. I wore the medium. 

This fits sooooo well I love it but… the arms and legs really hurt!! Warning… if you can bear it, then it’s stunning but I don’t know if I can be at a 4 hour gala sitting in it. 

Fit really well with a strapless bra underneath. The medium fit like a glove and didn’t require a bra, however I am currently breast feeding twins and knew I’d need some room in the chest area as the night went on. The sequins in the underarm area got a bit irritating over time as we were dancing for a few hours and the gown is a bit heavy over all. Very flattering fit. 

Forgiving, elegant, flowing and sparkly! What else could you ask for in a dress? I'd rent this one again though the cheat was a bit tight. 

This dress was perfect for the occasion. It made me feel beautiful. I love that I could wear a bra with it.  It was modest enough for an event with coworkers. I wore 2 inch heels and the length of the dress was perfect. 

So spanx was THE ONLY way I made this dress work.  I could not zip this over my bust and the bone in the dress poked me in the side most of the night. Spanx was the only way I could zip it.  It looks good in photos but be prepared to tough it out. I am 36DDD and it shows in the photos. I prefer to not have breast on display at a wedding. It was too late for me to order an alternative.  Size up if you can for comfort.  Hips and legs were fine because it's A-Line style.

The dress was absolutely beautiful.  The small fit on top but was a little too tight around the bottom.  The medium was a little too loose on top.  Even though the straps were loose I just let them fall to the side and wore a strapless bra.  

This gown is stunning but it is cut extremely small at the top. I have a full bust, which is why I opted for the medium rather than the small. But even the medium was WAY too tight up top. I had to suck it up and wear it because my event was the day after I received it and I was traveling to the venue in another city the following morning. I got tons of compliments (especially on the color which is a beautiful blue, bordering on purple) and loved the way it flowed at the bottom. Another point worth noting: I was wearing a shawl which was constantly getting caught on the sequins; I ended up having to throw the shawl away the next day because it was ruined. So with those two caveats, I would say proceed with caution. 

The boning in the bodice was flattering. It was a little snug in the chest but it functioned as a bit of a push up and I didn’t need to wear a bra. The long length was good for my height (5’10”).

Unfortunately size XL did not fit, I have large breasts and it would not zip. The material also made me itch just by wearing it for 5 min. I am sure this can be flattering for those who have smaller breasts. I do gotta say it's a great option for a formal affair. 

I wore this to a black tie wedding in early November.  I added the jacket since it was a little chilly.  Lots of compliments.  Great to dance in.  Very comfortable since it has a little stretch in the material.  Love the color!!  Only complaint is the low cut.  I felt a little self-conscious showing too much cleavage.

This was a great dress. The straps were comfortable and fit was good for a formal gown. I ordered the small long and I am 5’10 and the dress was still about 2 inches short on me. I wore it anyway, but would have hoped the long was longer.

I am size 8 and it was a perfect fit.  My only issue is that the slip is very short and rode up quite a bit. It also was INSANELY itchy where my bare legs touched the dress. It was quite bothersome. 

Loved it!  Needed help to zip it up.  Perfect length so I could wear flats and I’m 5'3.  Lots of compliments and comfortable to wear.

A tad long but pumps took care of that.  Definitely a winner.

This gown was not only easy to wear, but it adds so much just in the way it is constructed and the textile choice. I felt like a queen all night.

Fit snug around my ribs- I have that trouble often so can’t blame the dress. 

Sequins was beautiful! But as expected- rough on the underarms. This dress is very well made- can tell its quality!

Great length- didn’t have to wear high heals. 



I originally ordered a 10 and it almost fit perfectly but wouldn't zip completely. The 12 was a perfect fit but def a tight fit so if you want more room I would size up. I got regular length and it went just to my ankles (5'7") which was perfect for this but I may have gotten the longer version for other events.

This dress was great! The dress is gorgeous and fun as the bottom is somewhat see through. have a large bust and felt secure enough that I did not wear a bra! 

I wore this for a black tie Bat Mitzvah and got so many compliments.  Fit is true to size.  Very flattering.  I would definitely rent it again for another formal affair.  

The fit of the skirt and dress was perfect. Bust was tight (34DDD). 5’2” 120#. If ordering and your are generous in busy relative to other proportions I recommend ordering your back up a size larger.

That being said I felt very supported in the dress.

Great for a formal event. Would advice to go a size up than usual.

This was so beautiful! I wore it to a black-tie optional wedding, and I got plenty of compliments. I especially loved dancing in it - I felt secure (even without a bra), and it twirled beautifully! The long was pretty good with heels, though I did end up stepping on the bottom a couple of times. I would just do slightly higher heels, and it would be perfect! I’m 5’5” and I wore 2” heels.

I loved this dress for a starry themed wedding. There is boning in the bodice that makes it feel luxurious and very much like it’s for a special occasion. The sequins are a little itchy under the arms and around the legs. You could wear leggings but the slip only goes above the knee so use something in a nude. I got SO many compliments. 😍

Loved this dress! I tucked in the sleeves because I think it looks more formal without them. Wore it to a fundraiser gala and felt fantastic! 

Lining comes to thigh just above knee. Be sure to check that it’s pulled down so you aren’t showcasing your underwear or shapewear.

Beautiful to wear while dancing. It sparkles so beautifully under the light! I love how the bottom half of the skirt portion is see through - looks stunning on the dance floor.

Beautiful dress for a formal event! Fit well and very flattering for top/middle. With small heals, hits the floor at just the right place. Comfortable and fun. 

Love it! Perfect for formal occasions. This dress was great for a mother-of-the-groom dress.  The regular was long for a 5'1" person, even with 2" heels on.
The zipper was a little difficult to zip, the dress was very durable, though.  The dress was layered; a slip was not needed.
A strapless bra could be worn.  The dress was perfect.

Wore this to a black tie wedding and felt like a million bucks! Long length worked great, I could even still wear heels. Color is really pretty!

This designer fits me well. A little small up top but structured enough to not wear a bra. Classy and gorgeous- the navy and sparkle will make you stand out in a sea of black dresses. Loved it and felt great all night.
