This dress was so perfect and sparkly, I got so many compliments on it. I normally wear a size 10/12 and the 10 fit perfectly. Sorry I didn't get a picture of the sleeve! The fabric was pretty heavy allowing for a little extra room in the dress, it also felt nice and expensive- not like a lot of cheap sequin dresses that you often find. I was afraid it was going to be too big in the bust area but I'm a 34 B and it fit fine, a little loose but the dress stayed up without me having to pin it. I also have large hips but didn't have an issue fitting into the dress. 

I wore this to a charity dinner held outdoors, my husband kept gushing about how great I looked and that I turned heads at the event, so this dress has an effect on the men, ladies! I wore peep toe black sparkly heels which matched perfectly. I ended up wearing the 8, but am usually a 10 (even in another Jay Godfrey dress which I rented last month), I think the heft and drape of this dress may allow others to go one size down. The dress was a little shorter than I expected, I'm only 5'3 and the hem was a good 2-2.5" above my knees.

I loved this dress - it's comfortable and fun. The draped arm is beautiful.  It's seamed along the body (in case that's not obvious) and the bottom would be even with the hem if you held your arm out straight.  The fabric is great.  I didn't feel like the sequins were going to detach or snag.  I go back and forth between 8 and 10 - I rented those two sizes, and the 8 was better.

A note about my photo:  I wore this dress as a Halloween costume, actually.  (Please don't let that dissuade you!)  I wanted a sophisticated costume and I think it would be stunning styled differently (e.g. without a bat mask!)  That's why I'm posing with my arm on my hip under the poncho sleeve. The dress was just absolutely so much fun to wear!

however don't go bigger because as you can see I had a problem keeping it up to cover my bra on the side, and I think it would have looked less frumpy had it been more fitted. 

Roomy - comfortable.  Great to have such an eye-catching dress that feels good to wear, also!

I love this dress!  At 5'4", it fit me much longer - almost to the knee - than the picture on the model.  It is slightly large, but I love that it skims over problem areas (tummy, thighs) just right and is very slimming.  It is a heavy dress, but you'd expect that with all those sequins!  A regular strapless bra, or a convertible with one shoulder strap works great here.  

It has stretch, and a lot of play with the cut of it. I like the drapeyness, works with full bust. I'd tend to think of myself as an hourglass more than topheavy, but where things are most often tightest is my bust, next most often my butt, almost never the waist. 
Anyway, this fit well, and since I bought it, I'll have many chances to wear, and it will look good with leggings, too.

Fab with nude heels so your legs go on for day.

Wore this to a black-tie themed NYE party, and got rave compliments all night long.  I usually wear a 4, but this fit me perfectly in a 2.  The 4 was waaaay too big.  

The dress was very comfortable, very sexy, and easy to dance in all night long.

I'd rent this dress again in a heartbeat for any party that has a bit of glitz/glam/oomph.

This dress was so comfortable and I had a wonderful time wearing it! Love the sleeve.

AMAZING DRESS, DEFINITELY MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD, THOUGH BEING LARGE BUSTED AND TALL, I HAD TO GO WITH THE LARGER SIZE AS THE SMALLER SIZE WAS TOO SHORT..

Im between a 12-and 16 would the 12 be fine?

This dress made me feel like a million buck jackpot! Very forgiving on your body and super-super sexy. I thought I needed the 12 and got the 10 as a backup. The 10 worked great, so if you're between sizes, go to the lower end. Wore with a great pair of earrings, sparkly bracelet and sky-high booties. The fabric is luxurious. The sequins are tiny, which helps the drape of the fabric. No runs or snags anywhere. Get pictures of yourself! 

This dress is gorgeous in person and fits perfectly. It is not revealing and makes you feel like you own Vegas. Quality fabric and there were barely any snags in the sequins.

Loved wearing the dress.  Sadly no pictures taken -- 

Rented this for Vegas but the size was so big, my friend ended up wearing it instead.  The material has a good amount of stretch, I probably could have sized down 2 sizes.  If it fit, it would have been the perfect dress for Vegas.

This dress runs large.  I usually wear a 6 and the 4 was falling off at the bust.  With a bustier and some fashion tape however I was set to go.  I wore this for NYE and got tons of compliments at the Glitter Ball we attended.  It was comfortable and easy to dance in.  I totally recommend it! 


I wore this to a gala and LOVED IT!!! I got the 2 (a 4 just in case) and the two fit perfectly.  It's not a tight dress but it drapes so nicely.  Lots of compliments!

Excited to rent more dresses... This is like a dream come true, I get to play dress up w/o the commitment!!!

Was planning on wearing this to a Vegas-themed Christmas party but I found myself swimming in the dress. It looks great in person, just wish it would have fit.

This dress exceeded all of my expectations. If you're on the fence...do it!!
