I had wanted to wear this this dress "forever".  It was really pretty and fit nicely to start.
The dress stretches with time and it looked good, just not the same.
It was a little too long on me, maybe 5'7" and taller would like the fit a bit more.



We were headed to one of the finest restaurants in New Orleans, so I wanted a dress that complimented the atmosphere. It fit like a glove - I love the zipper all the way up the back. It's a dual zipper, so while the top one slid down a little throughout the night, the bottom zipper could be unzipped to match your stride. Will rent again.

Ordered to wear to a wedding, but ended up choosing another dress so I wore this one to work. It was a bit low cut for the office, had to fashion tape it to keep my bra out of view. It was a bit big on me, but I'm not as familiar with the European sizing, so maybe I just ordered the wrong size?

Beautiful dress and great quality.  Just way way way too much boob,  the color is also more pumpkin orange rather than the bright color I thought it would be.  It's a pass. 

This dress fit perfectly. The dress looks more orange than red in person, but it's a gorgeous orange. I went without a bra. The material is thick and supportive. The zipper in the back allows for a slit for easy walking. I wanted to keep it forever. 

Wore to a rehearsal dinner. The length was perfect. It was a tad big in the bust area. I do have a small chest. On our way I had to secure with fashion tape since it was a little stretched out from prior use. I was able to wear a regular bra however I did have to use fashion tape. The clasp that secure your bra strap arrived broken on one shoulder however fashion tape was an easy fix. All in all it was a great dress, a little fashion tape and your good to go. 

Great dress! Received lots of compliments at a friend's rehearsal dinner. The dress was very comfortable and form fitting. 

PROS  
- Vivid color: a decadent and bright orange bordering on red
- Style: flattering neckline worked well for my large bust, and even though I am short it fell to a perfect midi-length. It was also flattering around the waist and hips, not too loose, not too tight.
- Luxe material is really comfortable and stretchy while still looking polished and elegant

CONS
- Short women beware: if you're short like myself, the straps were a little long and I had to be on bra-watch all night. Fashion tape and safety pins were a must! It worked, but you'll need to be prepared.
- Stretch: As other reviews have mentioned, the material stretched out and wrinkled by the end of the night (you can see in the photo which was taken toward the end of the night that there were wrinkles forming around the waist and hips where it creased while I was sitting)

OVERALL
I don't normally wear a lot of color, but I really loved this dress - it's a totally unique, standout style that's flattering and fun.  I got compliments all night wearing this dress to a friend's cocktail-attire wedding. My overall recommendation would be to size down due to the inevitable stretching (plus, this seems to run a little large, to begin with).

I loved this dress! Wish I could buy it. I wore it several times (to an award ceremony, to a conference with a blazer, to a dinner party, and just out for a dinner one night) and it was a showstopper every time. I wore it in both chilly fall temps (with tights and a cardigan) and on a hot Miami night. Perfect every time! The dress does stretch/crease a tiny bit after sitting in it, but nothing terrible. I might get a size smaller next time. 

Fits like a glove- but the V will shift and make your boobs look crooked. So beware of that. 

Rented this as part of my unlimited subscription to wear to work. Loved the dress, it was just a bit too loose for me. I rented what I thought would be a size 6 in US but it felt like a size 10 on me. I had to put safety pins on the straps so I wouldn't be showing so much cleavage. All in all, I would rent again, but probably about two sizes smaller than the one I rented. 

Perfect color for an end of the summer wedding! Fit perfect. Was able to wear a normal bra. The straps have a little piece of thread and small button so that you can button in the bra strap but I actually didn't even need to use it. The zipper on the back goes all the way down, which worked out well. I was able to unzip the bottom a bit, to make it easier to walk /dance since it is a little tight otherwise. 

I wore this dress to a rehearsal dinner. I received so many compliments on the dress. It was incredibly comfortable to wear so much so I wish I had saved to wear to the wedding itself! I found it to be true to size, I didn't wear a bra but I could have easily (there are fasteners in shoulder to hold straps in place). Only small nuisance was the dress seemed to stretch out with wear a bit, which I think made it slightly less flattering by end of night but I don't think anyone noticed this but myself! Would definitely rent again!

For me, it is large on the top (30A) and requires adhesive bra due to low cut, otherwise fits beautifully with a pretty low cut back, and a fitted but not clingy bodice.  Gorgeous deep orange color.  I'd rent again.

From the color, to the fit, this dress is s solid 10! I would suggest opening the zipper on the bottom to give your legs a little room when you walk! Will rent again!
