Love this dress classy and effortless. Love the back v cut. This is a good one. 

So many reviews said the straps were too long on this dress but I figured if I got the XS it would be fine. For shorter girls the straps are just a bit too long. I made it work but was a little worried about the straps slipping down all evening. It would have been prettier on me if the entire top of the dress were smaller, it is just cut too generously IMO.   It is a forgiving dress though - the waist is elastic and gathered - and while I *never* wear an XXS I did wonder if it would have fit me better than the XS. I took this dress to Rome on vacation and it traveled well, no wrinkles.  I wore it to go out to eat in the evening; it would have been too warm and sticky for daytime heat. 

Very comfy, loved the pockets just a tad too big. Felt very flowy and free!

Top half too big, rest of dress fit perfectly. 

Didn't mind the design or fabric overall, but didn't love it. Forgettable. 

I usually love Vince. 

I did like this dress but it run very very big.  I could have sized it 2 times down.  But I love the overall look and feel of the dress.  

This dress was too big, the top kept falling down. I wore this to work with a black tee under it. The waist felt loose and baggy. The dress had a sheen to the material. This dress has nice pockets.

Casual but special at the same time. So light and easy for hot weather/beach.

wore a ton of times - comfortable to wear when pregnant 

Wear with undershirt for small chested ladies

Great material and style. The straps are long and the arm holes are big. I recommend sizing down. 

Being a bit short, my only complaint is that the shoulder straps are a bit long and tend to slip down. I need to pin them to my bra so they don't fall. 
Very flattering.

Love how comfortable and versatile this dress is, the cut of it lends itself to wearing as a skirt under many different tops. That being said unless you are busty, size down, this is cut incredibly big up top. I am usually between a M and L depending on the cut of a garment, and a S in this dress fits perfectly. 

fits perfectly! I love it and so easy to just put on and enjoy the day in it

Simple enough to accessorize for different looks. Flattering. Loved the pockets

Can dress this piece up or down…for brunch or a casual day at work or about town (I live in FL so probably more versatile in warmer climates).

Great dress. Super comfortable and attractive. Had pockets to boot. Will rent again

Slightly large in the top/straps but comfortable and beautiful dress.


Gorgeous dress - Had to size down to a small and that was still a bit large.  Still loved the dress and the look

I wore it to a wedding rehearsal dinner and got so many compliments.  It was perfect.  Stretchy waist for eating, but so flattering.  I would buy this if I had more places to wear it to!

Not flattering if you have a bit around the waist like me so I returned it without wearing it

Material is really pretty and has a nice feel to it, but in my opinion the top is huge compared to the bottom. I'm usually between an XS and an S, XS usually being fitted and S being a relaxed fit, but these straps won't even stay up. I had to wear a tank top underneath because of how much they slide right off my shoulders.

Beautiful empire waist synching but a tad big. Would rent again in a xs and usually between 6/8.

I didn't end up wearing this dress (went with something less formal in the end for a friend's 50th birthday dinner), but it was generally flattering and looked nice. I noticed that other reviewers mentioned how big/loose it was on top and I would second that, even as a very bosomy person. Note that it is cut very low in back and requires a low-back or backless bra if you don't want the bra to show.
