This dress is beautiful - absolute showstopper. I wore it in November (in the Northeast) to see Hamilton and layered a bodysuit and fleece tights underneath to keep warm - which also solved for the deep plunge v neck. The material is not forgiving/ has no stretch and is a little tight around the waist. I sized up as I hadn’t worn this designer previously and I am very glad that I did or I would not have been able to zip this one up.
The extra large fit just right, and I’m typically an 8/10. I was worried it would be too big but that was not a problem at all! 😉 I needed to close the deep V neckline with fashion tape. But it worked pretty well. I love that the sleeves cover my unattractive upper arms. I wore it to afternoon wine with other women and I don’t think I’ve ever received so many compliments on a dress. Because it’s 100% silk, it steamed easily and beautifully. The side zipper isn’t perfect, as the other reviewer said, but I didn’t find it to be a problem. It’s beautiful, rent it!
Def a low v but not in a bad way. Fits a little tight around the ribcage
This was a stunner and would like to see more unique designs like this on rotation. Wore for a charity event and received lots of compliments. I opted for flats but with proper heels it would've given more glam (and also the dress would not be dragging, but I am a shorty).
Loved everything about this, only downside is it is a super deep V but if you have small boobs and fabric tape you’re golden. Fabric was lightweight, paired well with a leather jacket. Gorgeous print and cut!
Photos can’t do justice to the gorgeously vibrant colors and print of this dress! So comfortable, beautifully tailored and fitted silk, and easy to dress up or down for work to date night. Found TTS, although wore a tank top for Representative Susan Del Bene meetings to be professional. Received endless compliments and looked equally elegant standing or sitting in my wheelchair-a treasured find! A must-rent! 💕
It was flattering, the fabric is beautiful, and the length was perfect.
This is a truly lovely dress, but I think it would look best on someone with a flatter chest ... like the model on the website. (Isn't that always the case?!) It's also very low cut at the neckline, so I bought a bra that had a lot of "top" coverage - kind of like a sports bra. I did end up getting complements on the dress - probably because of the color pattern.
The quality and fit of this dress is gorgeous but it was too big for me in the chest area/way too low cut. Tried to make it work though!
Don’t see how anyone could wear without a tank. Pretty design.
I enjoyed wearing it a few times. Fabulous look.

Just right
Gorgeous, thin, silk(?), lightweight. Very low V neck. Wore a plain black fitted cami underneath and strappy heels. Will rent again.
Overall Fit
Just right
Very comfortable , fits like a true 8, and feels like a dream
The dress is absolutely beautiful — the silk has a gorgeous sheen and the fit is elegant. Just note that the material is quite thin, and the neckline is definitely very low. Stunning for a special event, but be prepared to use fashion tape or a slip if you prefer more coverage.”
Fits true to size. Silky fabric feels nice in the skin. Dress has no stretch. Very low cut though.
I love this dress; however, if you are petite the dress is just too long.
Perfect for a summer vacation. Quite low cut in the front but I was able to wear without a problem with fashion tape. Considered buying. Might not work as well without an under-layer for curvier gals.
Wear with a plunge bra or no bra this is a gorgous dress!
Vintage silhouette with modern design. 10/10
Length
Too Long
Another dress i hoped to love but didnt fit as i hoped. It is def more low cut than i usually wear but i could have accepted that. Im top heavy so am careful not to wear things that are too revealing. The hips on this dress seemed to have too much fabric making it pucker on the sides instead of hugging my curves. It is a very nice dress and i contemplated keeping it to wear somewhere even tho it didnt fit perfectly, but i decided to send it back
Gorgeous pattern, flowy silk but much too low cut and too form-fitting for a non-spandex dress.
This was just ok. The bottom was a great fit but the top was too low cut as many of the other reviewers mentioned. I didn’t think I would mind because I don’t mind low cut stuff but this was gaping. Would not rent again.
I was able to wear a tank top under it and twist the extra fabric at the back neckline to give a a good fit
This is a beautiful dress, but the side zipper gives it a strange shape and sticks out in an unflattering way, especially if you have the slightest of hips. The V is also super deep and unless you are flat-chested, you will need a bandeau if you don’t want major cleavage/spillage! Great dress, but likely works best for tall and very thin -
Too low cut for me
This was an immediate no. It drew attention to my worst areas.
