I wore this to a work Christmas party and got lots of compliments. I loved the texture and thickness of the material. I'm usually a size 0/2 but had to go with a 4 because it runs small. 

Size up two is correct - overall lovely color and appropriate length; little to no stretch. Late summer wedding guest attire!  

Has stretch. Nice length, the sleeves do slip off they are a tad loose. Overall nice fit. Not to heavy of a material. 

Wore this to a winter rehearsal dinner and it was perfect. The sleeves were definitely tight and not the most comfortable, but it was worth it for the unique style and stunning color. The fit is definitely more structured and doesn't have much stretch, but other than the sleeves it fit like a glove. The material is thick but not too heavy and feels expensive - also no bra needed! 

A bit on fitted side. Couldn’t wear a bra but good fabric, and darts at chest/ruching in the waist pull it together nicely 

I absolutely love the fit and color of this dress! 

Wore it too a fall wedding. Loved the color and sleeves 

It fit nice and snug on the waist but my hips are small so it was a little too full for me. It still looked great because of the ruching on the skirt. I definitely recommend this dress! 

Loved this dress and how I felt in it. It’s definitely a bit short if you’re tall, but was manageable. I paired it with sneakers to feel more comfortable with how short it was and the amount of walking I’d be doing. Will rent again!

This dress is a stunner!! Comfy material that’s thick enough to cover the stomach while remaining comfy to sit through dinner and dance in all night. I didn’t wear a bra and was totally comfortable. All around fit like a glove and felt like a movie star!!

This fit perfectly and looked incredible on camera! Gorgeous construction and rich yellow color. 

Could BARELY get it zipped but once I was in there it was so cute and I got a ton of compliments 

If you are size M like me, you will need order size L to feel comfortable 

This dress was amazing, wore it to a bridal brunch and got some many compliments. It was definitely a bit snug but fit well overall! 

This vibrant yellow gold will make you the center of attention! I chose to wear the 4 (over the 6) for an extra fitted look since I’ve been putting in the work at the gym! Loved this dress!

This dress is so beautiful although it does run slightly small. I am super petite and it was still very snug on me- I might have sized up. Anyway, lots of compliments!!

I had a last minute party come up and threw this in my cart on a whim. So glad I did! This dress was really different than it looked online. The material feels like taffeta and the waist has a lot of ruching, which makes for a flattering, tummy controlled fit! You do probably need dark skin and hair to make this color work but overall I was wowed by the fit of this dress!

I rented this dress for my holiday party with the intention of making my ex jealous and it CRUSHED that goal. I rented my regular size, which made it tight, but not uncomfortable. If you want it to feel less tight then it’s worth sizing up. Overall I got compliments from everyone and this dress was a HUGE confidence boost

This dress is just what all the reviews say: a STUNNER. It is also what all the reviews say: runs small. I am typically a 0, and thankfully no 0's were available when I reserved so I got a 2 and a 4 (thinking the 2 would be great since it's sizing up from my usual size). I mean, I COULD have worn the 2 but that baby was TIGHT. So: size up more than you think! I believe this may be in AUS sizing which explains the need to go up. I am petite, so the 2 would have been a more appealing length but I'm also 34 and have a kid so no need to risk any unnecessary exposures. I would not recommend this for anyone with a larger bust: it was fitting on me but I'm fairly small up top and wore it without a bra (no way it would have fit with a bra).

All that aside, this dress is beautiful and I received compliments on it all night. There is no stretch, but it is lined nicely so worked great for a mountain wedding in Utah. If this dress ever goes on sale, I will definitely buy it. Rent this!

Beautiful dress and perfect fit. Only complaint would be that it’s not the most flattering color if you’re fair-skinned like me.

I usually wear a size 4 but ended up wearing the size 6 dress. It was a little tight in the rib cage area but other than that fit great! The long sleeves came in handy for cooler weather. 

This is more of a slim fit dress, imo. I have very thin arms and if they were any bigger the sleeves may have felt too tight for my liking, something to consider. The style and fabric make it great for an evening party. It’s a stand out piece for sure. 

Loved this dress so much, perfect for an outdoor end of summer wedding. Size up 1-2 sizes though, it runs small!

Wore to a bachelorette party and felt amazing. Sized up one size (I'm 5"4 and 115) and the 4 fit perfectly. Had so much fun wearing this one. 

The color was PERFECT! The fit was mostly spot on and the fabric was a thicker, forgiving material that stretched where needed and made me less self-conscious all night.  It was a great party dress for my 40th!

If you are curvier (have hips and a butt) it may creep up if you are walking around a lot. It IS a mini in every sense!

If you have a shorter torso (or a top half smaller than your bottom half), the sleeves may slide down. I had to put in temporary darts to alleviate that issue.



Loved this dress - paired with some chunky black platform boots to make it a little more casual for a dinner. Got lots of compliments. Fabric is thick and not super stretchy, so was a little hot in 98 degree weather but still generally comfortable 

Nice color, true to side, fun, very confortable and also I feeling confident on this beautiful dress! 

I needed a statement dress for my 40th bday in the Hamptons & have had my eye on this piece for months but it's always unavailable. A size 4 came in on a 4 day rental and I snagged it!  The top half of this dress is very tight - better for anyone less than a C cup IMO. As well, the material isn't the best in the heat bc it'll show even the slightest pit dampness. If I rent again I'd go for a size 6. Overall I loved it and received so many compliments. 

Literally have never felt skinnier - this dress hugs everything perfectly. The color is gorgeous. The material is amazing. Can't say enough amazing things.... just rent it as fast as possible! 
I'm usually an 8/10 and I wore a 10 and it was perfect.

I loved this dress so much! Definitely runs on the smaller side for the arms. I usually wear a 0-2 and wore 2. It was tight enough I didn't need a bra. Sizing up to a 4 probably would have been a more comfortable fit. 

The fit of this dress is incredibly flattering and the sleeves are a showstopper. It truly is the perfect dress. Everyone was asking me where I bought it. I can usually wear a 2 or a 4, but I absolutely would not have been able to zip up a 2. The 4 was just right. It fit like a glove and hugged in all the right places (even has the tiniest bit of ruching in front to disguise any problem areas). If you're between sizes, size up. This dress is just amazing!

Fits like a glove. Gorgeous golden color. This dress was perfect for my small boob, mostly straight, little pooch, athletic frame. Will absolutely rent again.

I absolutely loved this dress and would buy it. The fabric was smooth and structured along with the gorgeous sleeves. I didn't need to size up as it fit me like a glove. I would recommend this dress a thousand times. It was perfect for the reception I attended. 

A little tight so I suggest to size up if you want to breathe a little lol
