I wore this for a fall wedding, and it felt chic and unique. I'd say if you're in between sizes to size up! I went for the larger of my two rental sizes, and it was still a bit snug in some areas.

This was so flattering and comfortable for a fall wedding. Got so many compliments all night! 

I wore this for my engagement party. The vibe was dressed up but not formal. I loved the dress and it was a hit! I went with the smaller size, which is my usual size, but I thought I might need to size up since I am busty. It was not necessary! I felt more secure in the smaller size with the bow tied tight. It is such a beautiful and comfortable dress.

So many compliments, a bit loose on my shoulders, but absolutely loved it

The fabric was really pretty and I liked the concept, but the top was too big and the hips were too tight for my body type. Initially thought I’d wear this to a rehearsal dinner, but went with another option. 

I loved so much about this dress, but the flaws made it difficult to enjoy wearing it for the evening. As other reviewers said, it’s VERY low cut. I have a small chest and though that I’d be able to keep the dress comfortably close to my skin with dress tape. This did not work. There is no stretch at all. The waist was a little tight and the top was not clingy enough. After the one hour ceremony the top had loosened so much that the shoulders were falling down which led to more exposure. I ended up stopping at target for a bralette to go underneath for the ceremony. Ultimately I wish I had worn a  bralette underneath from the beginning. It was stunning as long as I didn’t move to much and at 5’3” the length with the size 2 was perfect. 

Easy to dress up or down and hell comfy. The plunge is just enough to be fun but not too much that you need fashion tape. The back is mostly open so not sure how it would work for those who don’t like going braless

I loved this dress. My size wasn’t available so I had to size up. That worked out but the shoulders were a little large. I tied the back as tight as I could but I did worry about my chest being over exposed. I loved the look and it was perfect for a holiday party. I got tons of compliments and only wish I could have found better breast tape to accommodate the look. Would recommend! 

So flattering & such a beautiful material. Got a lot of compliments. Fits true to size. 

Everyone loved the dress, it was so comfortable. A very cute fit but I got a size two and I just didn’t fill it out enough in the bust. I ended up putting a zip up leather jacket over it and it was still very cute. I would have gone down a size for a perfect fit. Loved this dress!

This is such a cozy dress for a winter formal event. The ties on the sleeves are a great derail. I didn’t end up wearing it this time but I’ll rent again 

This dress is just perfect! It’s romantic and sweet, and the velvet is lovely for a winter wedding. It is just fitted enough to be super flattering and also comfortable. I got so many compliments and was sad to send this one back!

SO pretty and different for a fall/winter wedding! Cut is VERY low but stays tight, so felt very secure. True to size

I got so many compliments wearing this dress. The puff sleeves and velvet are super dramatic and fun. Perfect for winter wedding/black tie party

I loved this dress so much I almost bought it. It is so so flattering, you should def rent it. Runs true to size but if I rent again I would get the 6- the fabric is very flowy through the hips and the busy is adjustable because of the tie in the back. My bust was a bit too small for the 8 and the fabric didn't stay tied tight. Overall, the perfect dress for a formal fall event. 

The waist was too tight in the 4 but the size 6 the sleeves were slipping off my shoulders and the back was saggy :( . I’m a 34B and used boob tape to hold my boobs in place (u can’t wear a bra with straps) and they looked lovely. Wish the sizing was better but the length was good and material is very cozy— it worked for the winter wedding. 

LOVED this dress. It was perfect for a fall wedding. If you’re as small chested as I am you will need all of the sticky boobs - adjusting throughout the night kind of got annoying but I was still super happy with the dress.

I love this dress! I’m normally a 4 and for. 6 in the dress. I’m glad I did! It fit perfectly and was super comfortable! 

Loved this dress. The velvet was everything for a fall wedding. The back is super cure, the sleeves are super cute.. loved the low cut on the chest.. didn’t need a bra the tie in the back will secure them in. Probably could have been useful to have some tape lol overall 10/10

Got so many compliments on this dress! Not only was it comfortable, but it was very flattering and perfect for a fall wedding. 

Great fit for curvy girls. Got tons of compliments all night long. Tight enough on top that everything stayed in place.

So obsessed with this. Wore for a pre wedding dinner. I’m small chested and found the top to be a little loose, just had to tie the back a little tighter but overall really loved this and would rent again!

The dress was stunning when I took it out of the bag. I am in between a size 6 and an 8 and went with the 6 however it was a bit tight around my stomach but very loose on the shoulder area. Be mindful that is very very low cut. I ended up wearing a bralette underneath. The biggest con of it all was that the armpits smell of body odor. 

This was perfect for a fall wedding I attended. The velvet was cool enough for a sunny ceremony, and warm enough for a chilly evening of dancing.  

This dress is lovely and easily alterable with the ties. However your girls are going to show! No way around it :) but it was still very tasteful and lovely! Got lots of compliments!

LOVED the floral velvet material - perfect for a transition season. The ties on the arms and back were great to make the dress fit just right!

I wore this to a pretty fancy wedding and I fit right in with all the gowns but added some personality to all the stuffiness. I didn’t feel like fussing with a bra or fashion tape - it was mostly fine but it did creep down my shoulders from time to time. Everyone’s right about the compliments, they kept on coming!

I am on the far left. This dress is so elegant. I wore it for a fancy engagement dinner. The bride wore white and asked the rest of us to wear black. I felt amazing in this dress and was definitely best dressed! 

Perfect for a winter wedding. Can have some personal adjustments with the bow in back. Used beauty tape to stick down the V and it worked perfectly. Such a fun dress to wear!

I ended up wearing this on a date because it was a little too dark and too formal for the daytime spring wedding I picked it for, but it is so, so flattering that I had to find somewhere to wear it. It made my waist look so tiny! There are adjustable ties on the sleeve cuffs and across the back, which I love for clothes I'm renting. As a 32DD/E though, I couldn't have worn the 2 if my breasts were ANY bigger. They were secure thanks to the back tie, but majorly exposed. 

Loved this dress, didn't wear it for intended event but ended up wearing to a fundraiser 

Loved the sleeves- so many compliments.
I wore to a winter wedding and wore leggings and tall boots underneath. Lots of movement available for the dance floor too!
Loved this one

The low cut (cold) and revealing neckline is a little counter intuitive to the warm and cozy fabric. It's a winter dress, but you'll freeze unless you cover up your chest. More low cut than workable for me, as well. Wore it to an Easter thing. The tie in the back is not for snugging it's up -- just as a style accent. 

This dress was a real treat to wear. Perfect for the wedding I attended! I typically go with a size 4, but with the deep plunge neckline + my small bust, I was really glad I requested a size 2 as my backup. It fit beautifully and wow, I got so many compliments. 

Sized up and was glad I did, great dress for a winter or holiday party. Velvet is a great touch and pattern is very subtle. Didn't expect the front to be AS deep but felt great with the right support. 

This dress is amazing. It really flattered my body and although I did think it was a little low cut in the front I still loved it. I received so many compliments and it was perfect for a spring wedding where it wasn't too cold or too hot out yet. 

Fit well on my taller frame, got lots of compliments.
