Loved this dress! Comfortable and felt very elegant without the work!

Should have sized down to a 6, had to pin the 8. Great for small bust. Felt great at a black tie optional December wedding!

Wore to a Cocktail wedding and I got so many compliments on it! Love this dress.

Very beautiful dress. Elegant and classy. I wore to a black tie event and got so many compliments. Very comfortable and has pockets 

RENT THIS! This dress was everything! Wore it for a black tie wedding and got so many compliments. I’ve seen many reviews mentioning the dress isn’t great for small bust sizes. I’m a 34B and had very few issues. I did several checks to make sure it wasn’t slipping, but overall, only had to pull it up a few times if I was really jumping on the dance floor. Overall, would recommend! It’s a standout and so different from the straight line black dresses at the event. And for the price, I’d happily rent it again. 

The fit at first felt a little snug at the bust (32DDD) but later when I started waltzing in the dress and it started shifting I realised it was not quite snug enough. Advise wearing double sided tape to ensure the dress doesn’t slide down! It’s an A-line flattering cut with a tea length - which means you can wear beautiful shoes that will be seen! The dress is a mix of navy and dark purple colors, which is pretty unique. It has a beautiful thick texture too. 

The dress was amazing I got so many compliments on it! It was a little bit longer on me than in the photos hitting me just above the ankles. I'm 5'5" And 135 pounds I wore a size 4 and could've fit into a 2.  The dress was so fun to wear. The deep purple and blue were perfect for a late fall wedding. 

Pros: stunning dress, comfortable
Cons: it runs a little large so I would size down

The fit was good! It stayed up without slipping down and the little straps for the hanger were a good backup. The fabric was kind of heavy so it was hot for a summer wedding, and after a couple of hours the boning does dig into your back a little but overall it was a great dress. Would wear again!

I loved this dress!!! It got perfectly still had those stereotypical issues that come with a strapless dress. I'm pretty short (5'3") so I knew it wouldn't be the proper "tea length" but I popped on some heels and all was good!!! It's very elegant but still young and easy to move around in! And it was a big hit at the wedding!!! 

Thank goodness for the backup size! My usual size 2 fit but was a bit loose in the bust. The backup size 0 was perfect in the bust albeit a bit snug in the ribs. The weight of the fabric meant gravity naturally wanted to pull it down. I went with the backup size and I'm so happy I did. I was able to enjoy food and drink comfortably without having to pull up the dress all night. Got tons of compliments and even had one guest tell me I was the prettiest at the event besides the bride of course :) 
My only complaint is that the dress is not a true tea length in my opinion. The measurements online state 41" from shoulder to hem which would have it hitting me mid-calf. It ended up only 2 inches above my ankle. Still loved the dress! 


This dress is very heavy and not ideal for someone with a smaller chest. I had to pull it up several times all night but it is beautiful!

This dress fit really well and the pockets were a great hiding place for my phone and sunglasses. My husband was surprised when I pulled stuff out since the pockets it hid it so well. The downside to this dress is the boning. I had 2 of them and both had very pokey boning. I wore a corset under to avoid feeling it in the ribs all night. Unfortunately, at the end of the night, the boning poked through on one part and was poking me on the way home. Still would recommend, just plan for the poking.

I wore this for a wedding and got tons of compliments!  Though it is "tea length", for my petite self, it was a gown on me (1-2 inch off the ground).  The fabric was so luxurious and high quality.  I would totally wear this again! 

Also...POCKETS! Real ones I could put stuff in. 

I really liked the sweetheart neckline & length of this dress! Super flattering! The top was a touch roomy (which is normal for me, 32B) but I added extra padding. I think it would have been fine without the padding. No issues for me with the dress staying up but the fabric is thick. I think what helped was that the fit was very snug on my rib cage. Secure, not uncomfortable. Loved the pockets and got lots of compliments! This isn't a pattern I'd normally choose but I was really happy with it! 

Everything about this dress was perfect. I got lots of compliments and love that it had pockets! The material was heavy, and while a little hot for an outdoor October wedding in Los Angeles I was happy to have it once the sun went down. I'm 5'2", and the tea length was just fine. The ONLY downside was that another guest had the same dress as me, but we had a good laugh about it. 

Wore this to a covid wedding in October. The fabric was very thick which kept me nice and warm. Fit was true to size and if anything it ran just slightly large. Unfortunately it is also a good few inches longer than I expected and hit at my ankles when I was hoping for more of a midi look. All in all, great dress and I'd rent it again.

I adored this dress. It fit well and accented me in all the right places. I'm ungodly short so the tea length hit me at my ankle. It was heavy, but great for a winter party. My only qualm was that because I'm bigger busted, I had to make sure I didn't fall out of the top all night. But I loved it. I got compliments all night and it was so swingy when I was dancing. 10/10 would rent again

The fit was perfect and I loved the colors! It was a little long on me, but I didn't need to keep pulling it up all night. It was unique, yet simple. Fabric is a little heavy and wouldn't be good for warmer months. Highly recommend!

The dress fits SO perfectly. It has pockets!! It hits about mid-calf on me, and I wore a 5 inch heel. It might be one of my favorite things I've ever worn in my life, and when and if it ever goes on sale, I will buy it. I got SO many compliments on it. I have a smaller chest, so if you have a larger bust, you'll likely be able to fill out the top a little more. This dress is amazing!!!

Great quality fabric; perfect for a fall or winter wedding. I wore it on the dance floor and it held up really well for a strapless dress. 

I loved this dress! I wore it to a NYE wedding, and it was a perfect fit to disguise my newly pregnant belly. I received tons of compliments and it was comfortable enough to wear well into the evening. 

Many of the reviews mentioned sizing down but this was pretty true to size for me. I wear a 6 in J. Crew dresses and a size 6 fit really well! I liked how thick the fabric was, loved the pockets, and enjoyed the detail on the dress. 

Wore this dress to a November wedding. I loved the colors and the detail in the fabric. I got a lot of compliments on the dress throughout the night as well. I was in between sizes so I went with the smaller to have a tighter fit in the torso since the bottom of the dress was so full. It was a bit tight and needed some adjustments throughout the night but being small chested I didn't want the top to be loose.

I absolutely loved this dress and was sad to send it back. It's a heavy dress and kept me warm for a fall wedding. Due to it being heavy I sized down to keep it in place throughout the day and dancing. By the end of the night the though the dress was falling a bit but nothing major. 

The color and pattern of this fabric is rich and lovely. I am petite and unfortunately I didn't have the busy size to make it work. It is heavy as many reviewers point out and even with a padded bra I couldn't keep it up! If it came in a size smaller I would've worn it. 

Beautiful unique fabric and soooo comfy! 

I loved the dress and got so many compliments. The only complaint that I have is I expected to be a size 4 or 6, as I'm usually one of those two sizes, and really could have gotten a 2. Other than that the dress was gorgeous!

Dress was perfect for a warmer fall/winter Florida formal wedding. Boning under the left arm slightly popped out  & is the only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars. Fabric did not feel or look cheap. Loved the dress other than boning issue

Fit was good, a bit tight in the chest area. 

A great dress that received many compliments. The pockets were spacious and useful. The dress stayed up without need for tugging, as a high quality strapless dress should. By the end of a night full of dancing, some of the boning was rubbing at my back.

This dress is super flattering. It's heavy so I had to use a decent amount of fashion tape to keep it up, especially since it wasn't right around my rib cage. If I hadn't done that it would've fallen down all night. Otherwise amazing dress and gotta love having pockets!! 

The dress runs large. Since the material is heavy it needed to pull it up a few times during the evening. I also wore it with the little straps that are used for the hanger as I liked how it looked better with straps. Very pretty dress. 

heavy brocade material that hangs very well. If you are pear shaped like me this dress is a dream in that is highlights all the good things. However, as a short person, be prepared for an ankle length dress. 

The dress itself is beautiful, but I wish it had straps. The material is so heavy that it pulls down, so I had to constantly pull it up from the bust. Felt uncomfortable with my chest very exposed from this problem. Would not rent again.

Similar to other reviews, I found the dress was a bit big in the bust, but it stayed up through dancing and a full day of wedding festivities (though I do feel like I was pulling it up every 10 minutes).  It's a slightly heavier material - just something to keep in mind if you're attending an outdoor summer wedding.  Really lovely fit overall, it has pockets which are cool, and the length was perfect for me (technically it's tea length but it fit me like a full length dress - didn't have to worry about any part of the dress dragging on the floor, etc.)
