Theme was maximalist Italian Summer. It was festive, it sparkled, it showed off the booty, it showed off the girls. I’ve never received more compliments. The boning in the dress is vertical plastic, I was ok sitting and eating, dancing was a little hard. It held up throughout the night. Middle zipper meant I needed help getting it on and off. 

Love love loved this dress. Wore it to a formal wedding and was told on multiple occasions that I was the best dressed. Fits true to size. Would rent this over and over again. 

This dress was a show stopper for sure! I loved the color and the sequins on the dress and received a lot of compliments. The bust is slightly strange so I was worried about that when ordering but it ended up fitting me so everything worked out. I’d say the sizing runs a tad large but the size I got fit perfectly. Loved the dress overall!

Wore this to a wedding in FL. Received so many compliments. True to size. Bust was a bit large bu I don’t know that it could accommodate larger than a C cup comfortably. 

This dress is absolutely stunning! I wore it for my sister’s wedding and received so many compliments throughout the day. My sister LOVED how it complemented all the other yellow dresses in the wedding party — it looked beautiful in photos and in person. The quality is outstanding; the fabric and details feel luxurious. The only small issue for me was that the top ran a little large since I have a smaller chest, so I found myself pulling it up quite a bit during the event. Other than that, it was perfect and made me feel so elegant!

I did try on the Medium - Medium was much better for my chest. However, it was a bit too snug to wear for 8+ hours of wedding events. I'm happy I decided to wear the larger one. 

Had a wedding on Easter and this dress was perfect! The colors and sequins were so fun. Did have to pull the dress up a little throughout the night but didn’t bother me too much 

Beautiful dress! I got so many compliments on it. It fit perfectly and was comfortable. 

This dress was gorgeous!! The fit, the color, the cut.... the whole night I felt comfortable and beautiful. I kept getting compliments the whole night. I danced the night away and never felt uncomfortable at all. I totally recommend this dress!

This was my backup style for a family wedding but it was unanimously the favorite amongst everyone I polled, and I ended up wearing it. As others have noted, the bust is tricky - the cut of the sweetheart neckline means you really can’t wear a strapless bra without it showing.  If you are well-endowed, you’ll be busting out, but if you have a smaller chest, you won’t fill out the cups. I miraculously fell right in the sweet spot and this dress worked. I did use silicone cups just for a bit of coverage because I’m not accustomed to going braless.

Loveddd this dress and apparently so did others because of all the compliments I kept getting! Pros - felt so pretty and sexy, and the beading is beautiful. Cons - The dress is a lighter yellow, so I wish I was more tan. For my chest, the medium was too big and the small cinched a little too much, but I ended up in the small. 

I am usually a size 6/medium but went with a small based on reviews. It fit a bit tight across the waist but I think a medium would’ve been too big. Overall I really liked this dress though and it was a fun and different option for a rehearsal dinner. 

I was obsessed with this dress as soon as I put it on. The corset top was so flattering and the sequins are gorgeous. The only downside was that the sequins will chafe your arms after a while.

The dress was perfect. I got a lot of compliments. It felt very fancy and I felt like $1 million in it. However, the boobs were really awkward and no matter what I did I could not get them to look good.

It was a little hard to get on and off because of how tight the waist/bodice section needed to be (since it was strapless). But once it was on, it fit perfectly. I got so many complements and felt comfortable and confident in this dress.

Couldn’t recommend more! Wish I could wear to another wedding! Small fit but wore medium. Great strapless dress, didn’t fall, no gaps, I have smaller chest and felt so comfortable. 

Loved this dress and got so many compliments. The corset top means you have to slide it on over your head and shimmy it down your body, so be prepared to do some wiggling to get into this one. Was actually more comfortable to wear all night than it looks. 

Honestly wow, this dress was gorgeous. Size 6, small chested, small fit perfect - literally. Wore with flats because comfy was the name of the game. Dress looked fancy but not too upright. RENT IT. 

This dress was absolutely perfect! It fit like a glove and despite the beading, the dress wasn't too heavy or uncomfortable to wear. Obsessed!

I wore this to an August wedding and oh my god, I got SO many compliments! This dress looked so great with a tan and I’m pretty curvy but this dress was pretty flattering! Definitely suggest renting this amazing dress!

Fit comfortably snug in the bodice. The cups are large and awkward for smaller busts- needed to fill in with stickies in strapless bra. Beautiful color and embroidery with subtle sparkle. Lots of compliments! 

This dress was beautiful and pretty comfortable to wear. The cups are a bit big and not structured so if you’re smaller chested, you’ll need to fill them in. 

I was a little weary to wear yellow, but this did not disappoint. It was the perfect balance of color and sequin without being over the top, or too bold. It gave “class” and “confidence”. For strapless it had minimal movement despite being on the dance floor all night! So grateful I took a chance, got some many compliments! 

I needed between a small and medium in this dress. The small fit me in the bust, but was tight in the ribcage, esp with the boning. The medium was comfortable, but a bit big and I didn’t fill out the top at allll it was literally gaping. It’s a beautiful dress and I’m glad I wore it. The sequins did rub on my under arms and hurt after a few hours also.

Very pretty dress, everyone loved it. Like the other reviews said though, if you have a smaller bust size you’ll definitely need to pad it. 

I wore this dress to a summer wedding. It was lightweight for having sequins and had a nice silhouette. I am typically between sizes (8-10) and I went with the medium so it would be tight enough to stay up. I have a larger chest (34DDD) and it still needed yanking to stay up. I thought the dress was cute, not my favorite. But I got a TON of compliments!

fit was great, super comfortable, great shimmer with the sequins! 

I wore this dress for the Kentucky Derby and wowwww what a stunner! I cannot say enough good things about it. 

I wore this to a day wedding and got SO many compliments! I felt good in the dress and it held up in the bust area. I didn't have to do continual adjusting in the top area, and I didn't have the typical low grade fear of wearing a strapless dress. A very flattering yellow color, not too in your face and not too pale.

Ordered M and L and ended up wearing the L. It fit great and looked great. I was told by multiple people that my dress was their favorite at this wedding.

While I did not end up wearing this as the style felt too formal for the occasion, I 1000% will be renting this when I have a wedding come up next.  It is gorgeous, would look amazing on so many different body types.  Color is so springy/early summer, absolutely stunning

It gorgeous and I wish it would’ve fit my chest! Quality fabric, hugged me in all the right places. If you have a large chest, size up!! I didn’t get to wear it to the wedding I ordered it for but it would’ve been perfect 

the boning rods kept popping out,  i went a size large because of my bust, i kept having to pull it up, a medium wasn't available.  I received lots of compliments.

Perfect wedding guest dress. The top fits too big for a 36c so I’d size down. Boning is escaping the dress in the middle. Needs to be fixed. I didn’t wear it as it was too much for a shower but would love it for a wedding! 

This is a great dress for a spring/summer wedding or cocktail party. I wore it to an engagement party and it worked. The dress is covered in sequins, which is not noted. They are tasteful and work well with it! Still highly recommend. 

The dress is gorgeous and I got a lot of compliments. But my boobs felt like they were spilling over the top all night, I had to constantly adjust the dress. I'm usually a size 14 and ordered the XXL, luckily I did, the bodice was very tight. 

I got the medium and could barely zip it. It was so uncomfortable and they didn’t have a L available. If you have a smaller rib cage/waist then this dress will be fine but it did not work for me (more athletic build). 

lovely dress but was not ready for a long day of sequins

I'm normally a 0-2. The bodice fit, but the chest was way too big and I ended up not wearing it. Super bummed. It wasn't as flowy as I expected either.
