I changed into this dress for the dancing portion of my wedding. I didn't  anything too fancy or over-embellished; I wanted to be able to bust a move. This dress fit the bill perfectly. It is a well made and designed garment. You can choose how high to unzip each side of the dress, which is a fun bonus.

I got so many compliments on the dress! Similar to other reviews, the two fit me perfectly but was way too small on the bust. It was stretching and looked really awkward. I wore the four and that fit just fine. I was not obsessed with this dress by any means, but weirdly got so many compliments from family and friends at the event and also after I posted a picture from the event. This is great for a bridal shower or bridal luncheon and photographs pretty well too! Some of the sparkly things were missing or had fallen off probably from lots of wear, but you couldn't really notice at all. I would definitely recommend this dress to brides who don't want to buy a dress they'll never wear again! 

I rented this dress for my bridal shower and it was PERFECT!! I wore a 4 which is my typical dress size and it fit great! It was comfortable and easy to be moving around in all afternoon. Everyone at my shower told me how much they loved my dress. My only "con" would be if you are a size 4, but have a larger chest (bigger than a B cup) it might be too tight in the chest. Overall I was SO happy with this dress and would definitely recommend it!!!!!

Up close I don't love the sparkles on the dress, but from a distance I think they looked fine. The dress fits amazing, I felt gorgeous all night and received a ton of compliments. 

The dress is very flattering and not baggy like other shift dresses. The bust is fitted and I would recommend sizing up if you have a full bust. I usually wear a 4-6 in dresses. The length was longer that I expected, hitting a couple inches above the knee. 

I rented this for a white party I attended for work in Cancun. It was great! Very comfortable and flattering (I had to move around a lot to take pictures of the event) and was easy to pair with nude heels and silver accessories. There are zippers on both sides on the bottom, so you can create as much or little of a slit as you want on one or both sides. Loved it!

This was one of three backup dresses I received after the original dress I ordered was no longer available.  I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this dress on.  It was a little bit tight in the bust but luckily I'm not too big up there so it worked out fine.  Also, on me it didn't really look like a shift as I have hips and a bit of a booty but I think that's what I liked about it.  Other people have said that it looks like a potato sack but I didn't get that at all, just depends on your body.  There are two zippered slits on the front of the dress that you can use to make it a little more revealing if you'd like.

Did NOT care for this dress, both the 0 and 2 were tight across the chest, and baggy the rest of the way. The 0 clung to my stomach and hips, so I wore the 2. Hit at an unflattering length too. The two zippers on the front were nice - wasn't aware of that detail - as the evening was warm out. Would not rent again or recommend. 

I wore this dress for my bridesmaid luncheon. It was tight around my chest, but VERY loose everywhere else. I don't think I could have worn the 0 though, because it was so tight around my bust. Some sequins were missing. I guess whoever had the dress before me tried to sew some back on, but she sewed through both sides of the dress, and the back was stitched to the front right in the center of the dress. It was an easy fix, but I was very confused for a second. It was also much longer than I expected, but I have very short legs. 

It was a little tight through the chest and the sequins kept falling off! Other than that, it's a very flattering silhouette 

It was a beautiful dress and very appropriate for my bridal shower brunch. Just a little snug in the hips and bust, but I still wore the 4 and felt comfortable!

The dress fit pretty well but it was snug around the bust & the fabric was heavy. Not great for a warm day in the desert.
