Lovers + Friends

I loved this dress!! The neckline, asymmetrical slit, and pattern are extremely flattering and unique. Everyone at Steeplechase loves its It's the perfect dress to wear with your hair up! I'd definitely grab fashion tape to tape the slit and side of the dress to avoid a mishap especially if you wear the dress outside for a wedding or outdoor event.

This dress is SO CUTE in person. I really wanted to love it- the material is a nice crepe, but could be dressed up or down. Unfortunately, the proportions were just all too long for my body (shoulder to waist especially, but also a little linger than I would have liked). Had the waist been nice and tight, I might not have minded the extra material around the ribcage, but the waist was not as fitted as I would have liked, So the dress just looked sloppy on me. Highly recommend for normal-taller girls!

I rented this dress for a nautical theme wedding. The dress was beautiful but, the front skit kelt on opening exposing everything. Make sure to use Hollywood tape to make it work

I loved the style of the dress. The fit is a little strange. The bottom is very fitted and tight but the top is very loose. If you're small-chested, it may cause some issues. I decided to wear the XS, as it made the top more fitted. Unfortunately, I then had to deal with the bottom being too tight and the slit place higher than I would like.

Loved this dress but it does not stay closed in the front and the clasp hurt my back

I loved this dress, but it ran incredibly small for me. The slit was also a bit more aggressive than I had thought. I wasn't able to wear it, but I might order again one size larger to try it.

I've been working through a few dresses, trying them out and trying to pick one for the rehearsal dinner before my upcoming wedding. The rehearsal is at a yacht club so the style is definitely appropriate, it's got a real boat vibe. The fabric is beautiful and I really liked the style, especially the halter neck. The one issue is the top part of the dress is very loose. I'm a 32D so thought I was risking it to get a medium, but it was still way too big. The fastening at the back literally hung away from my body. I'm planning to re-order in a small and see if it fits better. I'd get a size smaller unless you have very wide hips, it's pretty tight on the lower half.

I loved loved the dress but the very very high slit made it almost unwearable. If you are not planning on dancing and mingling all over the place maybe I recommend it. Not sure on what kind of event you can wear this since you may have to be standing to not show almost everything.

The size was too small resulting in me not being able to wear it. A friend of mine was able to fit into it.

This is a beautiful dress in the picture and when standing. If you are between two sizes, get the larger size. The large problem with this dress is the slit. There is really no stitching between the two sides of the dress, and sitting causes the slit to be right in the middle of your lap and you will be very close to flashing someone. I couldn't wear this dress to the wedding I was going to for this reason. It may be better in people with smaller than averse torsos.

The dress was pretty, but I really would not recommend it for anyone but straight and narrow bodies. if you have hips, the slit in the middle starts to look borderline inappropriate!

I love the look of this dress. I wore it for some horse races and a julep party afterwards and it totally hit the nail on the head. I'd recommend pasties or a sticky bra with this. I'm a D right now and it was a little snug but not unbearable, but a medium is definitely better suited for a C cup or smaller. The big thing to note though: you absolutely have to safety pin that slit or otherwise you'll find yourself in some very compromising positions. Had I not safety pinned mine, it would have ruined my day/night having to be conscious of an accidental wardrobe malfunction the whole time I had it on.

Loved it there are no cons. I love the slit.. wear full coverage panties though lol! Strapless or no bra! I have no bra and you can't tell. Love love!! Such a neat dress and my boobs are 32ddd+ and I usually wear a 4. This was fantastic . Material is great.

I wish this would of fitted but the slit was showing way to much skin. Not suitable for everyday wear.

I was excited to wear this dress and it's very pretty. I wore it for an outdoor wedding rehearsal dinner so the light fabric was perfect in Florida. The only downfall was the slit. It's MUCH higher than it seems in photos so I feel like I had to constantly watch it. If I rented again, I would be ready with a safety pin. Still recommend, just be prepared for the slit.

I wore this dress for the bridal shower (brunch). True to size. I had to iron though because open part kept showing inside of the fabric so it could look cheap. But it was very pretty and the price was good.

slit too high

This dress is beautiful but unfortunately as others mentioned wayy tooo small and slit too high.

Loved this dress and received many compliments! The slit is a bit much, as in one wrong move and you're having a Britney moment. I used a safety pin to doctor it up a bit and it was good to go. Fabric is awesome, does wrinkle a bit easy, but still stunning! It runs tight in the hips, so I would order your normal size and then a size up. Overall great dress and would rent again!

Wore to a rehearsal dinner for a nautical themed wedding. The slit was very high as others commented but I was able to keep it under control, except for when seated. Used my dinner napkin to cover lap and was very cautious. Overall I loved the dress. It was sexy and comfortable. Would rent again.

I wanted to love this dress, but it wasn't quite right. The lining separated from the top layer and looked messy. Also when you sit down it splits completely apart in the middle and exposes your underwear. If you're strategic it's fine, but I ended up being self conscious and worried about it all night. Such a pretty design but the slit is too centered.

This dress stood out from every thing at wedding. Very comfortable except the slit was too high and had to be pinned

Nice fabric but very risqué slit . Simply pin it and you will be decent. Overall, I loved!

Like other reviews mentioned, the waist did run a bit small and the slit was very high. I sized up to a M and added a safety pin to the slit and was very happy!

The small was WAY to small on the bottom as slit stayed completely open showing everything. The medium I had to pin to stay closed and the top was way to big as I had to wear a belt to hold it up and pin back tighter. I am small on top and bigger on bottom if this helps you pick a size.

A nice twist on a striped dress! The contrasting striped fabrics, the neckline and slit make the dress fun and unique. I would recommend buying some fashion tape as the slit does go pretty high. Because the fabric has no stretch I would definitely size up, however , horizontal striped make it incredibly flattering. Perfect for a summer wedding!

Fun striped dress - I wore it for a lakeside wedding rehearsal dinner. Like other reviewers I used a small safety pin to pin the dress closed a bit up on the thigh area to avoid flashing anyone with the slit. It is definitely risque - the best way I could describe it is, people will want to look, because it looks like you can see "more" of you, but they won't actually be able to see anything...since you pinned the dress hopefully. Pin or no pin, you will get looks. I did not like how this dress wrinkled after sitting but thankfully it was a dark evening and I can only see it in the few pictures that I took. Very unique and flattering dress that I would recommend if you are pear shaped/athletic, can't really comment on other body types. One more issue...even with my athletic back I couldn't fill out the top of the dress and the 2 button closure on the back sagged even with a bra. I ended up taking off my strapless bra and using some fashion tape to tape the fabric to my sides, if I didn't do that, I might be flashing some side b00b. I didn't mind that the closure sagged in the back since I was able to work around it, but in that sense, it was not a 'perfect' fit. But this dress is meant to be worn loose given the lightweight fabric and the style. No stretch at all FYI. sorry for the leather jkt in all the pics, it was cold...

I was soooo excited to get the dress and when it arrived, it truly was great. I had no issue with the material- it fit well and was great for the price. My ONLY issue with the dress was that the split was way too high. It showed all of my goodies! I was not successful with pinning it, but I think I had someone to help me pin it, maybe the dress would have had a better chance.

Loved this dress! It was close to being to small and I could probably have worn the medium but it was super hot. I'm tall so when I sat down I definitely needed to be careful not to show my underwear with the high slit. I got lots of compliments on this sexy, fun, fashionable dress!

I rented this dress for Easter Sunday brunch. Although I loved the look, the slit was much too high, and had to keep adjusting it and finally pinned it. Even with it pinned, I had to make sure it didnt pop open. So it made it hard to be comfortable for fear of flashing! I originally rented the small but it was tight in the mid-section, so went with the medium, which fit loose overall. So although I liked the look, it took too much effort to make it work and just looked "ok" in the end. Would not rent again.

The dress fit nicely. The neck was a little tight for me, I don't like restriction around the neck. The slit is definitely high as others have mentioned. Sitting down is very revealing and dancing can be a bit risqué.

The medium was too tight in the hips, making the slit way too high. The large was so large in the bust I couldn't even consider wearing it. It was a gorgeous dress, but unfortunately, I couldn't wear the size I ordered or the backup size.

Wore for my engagement photos and the medium fit like a glove ! Careful with the slit - it can go a bit high.

This dress is beautiful! The slit is definitely high, but can be remedied by a safety pin and conscious sitting/dancing. I chose not to wear a bra with this, but I did need to wear nipple covers as the top fabric is a little thin. I'm 5'3/120 lbs/DD cup and the small fit fine. I actually sized down for my backup and the XS fit, but was tight and I didn't want to worry about having to suck in all night, so I went with the S. The fabric can wrinkle, so just be aware of making sure it's not creased when storing it before wearing.

A little tight around the waist, and is designed to be loose around the bust but otherwise was great. The slit is definitely very high and you can occasionally see underwear in too much wind. Had to ditch for a wedding since it was too sexy, but awesome for a number of parties!

I loved this dress but there are some things you should know when choosing a size. This dress runs small so you may want to size up. If you are 115 lbs or more, I would recommend a size Small or larger (depending on your body type). I am a pretty small person and the X-Small was too tight for me. That size is meant for a very petite body type. The waist band on this dress is very small/tight and does not have stretch to it so keep this in mind. The other reviews regarding the slit are spot on - it is VERY high. You will need fashion tape or safety pins to keep the top closed (and not show the goods). I used a couple safety pins. This dress is so cute and I received many compliments. Just know you need to be careful with the size you choose.

SO cute! I normally wear a M and I ordered the small-it was too tight on the top because I am a 34D. It is so cute though! The slit is super high and probably needs to be pinned or wear booty shorts under neath

I loved wearing this dress just to explore Boston on a nice summer day. The slit was def too exposing so I used a safety pin. Especially grateful since the wind def worked the dress. The area where the zipper stopped around my rib cage felt tight. The top slipped easily so I had to continually bring it up and then the tie felt like it was choking me. Double tape fixed all that. I did enjoy the dress regardless.

Such a cute dress and wore this to a house party I hosted. The back is low cut and couldn't wear a bra but the material wasn't sheer so that wasn't an issue for me. The back buttons of the dress are a little difficult to clasp and may require some assistance!

Unfortunately when I received the dress it was too small to even wear. While I could not get the dress on properly it did seem to be an odd fit. I think if you had larger boobies and a small waist this may work. Slit is a little high as well. Could be cute but go up a size.
