The material is so lux. I felt so secure (big boobs) and comfortable (not skin tight on tummy). There was a great flow to the material and slit by leg was just right. Wore to two different Christmas parties (in freezing weather) and the velvet like material was perfect. 

Rented for a formal gala, the slit across the chest goes so far it does preclude any bra with straps. You'll need help getting the neck part hooked. 

This dress was stunning and comfortable! I loved the unique neckline and it was very appropriate for a holiday party! You will definitely need a strapless bra and maybe some fashion tape to keep it in place. 

This dress is so pretty in person and comfortable. But to put it on was a struggle! Definitely do your hair and makeup after putting the dress on! 

Based on the reviews I was prepared to have a time getting in and out of the dress. It wasn’t as bad as I expected. I wore a 4 that fit well but I would have been interested to see how the 6 fit. Would rent again for a fall/winter dressy event! I got so many compliments on it.

This dress was lovely for a fall wedding! I got so many compliments and it fit the venue so well. Definitely size up as it had no stretch. As other reviewers mentioned, it was definitely challenging to get on and required some help, but it was well worth it. Once it was on, though, it was quite comfortable and not too tight around the neck. Highly recommend this one, I felt amazing all night and was sad to send it back!

So comfy, fits like a glove, received tons of compliments. 

I loved this dress so much. It fit like a glove and was such a thick and well made dress. The hole actually looks like it does in the photos and I got so many compliments! Wore it for our holiday cards and would purchase if it wasn’t so expensive! 

The dress clearly fits, but it is clear that the designer never had anyone try and put this dress on before settling on the final design. Not only does it need a zipper, there are 6 small hooks to close the neck - One should earn a prize if you can hook them all yourself. Don’t rent if you won’t have help getting it on.

Listen to the other review - you need a buddy to help get this dress on! Ran a bit tight and took a lot of patience but once it was on it was stunning.  Wore to a company party and received so many compliments. Very attractive but tasteful cut. 

I was worried about this dress with the reviews but it ended up working out! I wore this to a black tie optional wedding & received so many compliments on it. It was a more difficult dress to get on (and I do recommend doing your hair and makeup before) but it’s a really sturdy material so it can take some pulling/adjusting to get on. I did need help getting the neck secured. I ordered two sizes (normal and one larger) and ended up going with my normal size. 

First, the fit of this dress is PERFECT, I felt good and looked good and got many compliments. It may by my favorite dress I’ve ever rented for a wedding. BUT. This dress has absolutely no stretch, and it takes a lot of work to get on, especially if you have an athletic back or shoulders. Wait to do your hair and makeup until it’s on, but once you put it on you’ll never want to take it off. I took away one star only because of how difficult it is to get into.

This dress is gorgeous but it has no zipper so you need to size up at least one size to be able to get this over your head. I was able to get on the 4 but it took at least 5 tries to get it over my shoulders and boobs.
