I was looking for a little black dress that would be stylish, sexy and still comfortable ...even with my growing baby bump. This was perfect! I'm four months pregnant and this draped beautifully over my bump.  The open back kept me feeling sexy.  

After reading other reviews, I anticipated that this dress would run large.  In my opinion, it runs true to size, if not a bit small.  I usually wear a size 8, and just found I am pregnant.  The size 3 fit perfectly.  The draping was also perfect for concealing my little "bump" and I could have a full dinner and not feel constricted by the dress!  It was sexy without being vulgar.  I wore it for a night out in Vegas, and felt great in it!  The only thing I didn't love was the bra I had to wear with it--one of those sticky cup kinds.  But I felt the way the bodice was built a bra may not have been necessary.  I really liked it!

Other than the quality of the dress (upon arrival there were threads hanging where seems have been worn through and under both arms the seems were about done), the dress was perfect. It was cute, fun, flattering, covers your front but pulls in a fun way to show your naked back. I'm a size 6 usually with a 34B chest and wore a 1. It was tight to get into but that is a MUST because you want it staying up. Beautiful design--lots of compliments!

I loved this dress: very flattering & very easy to wear.  Loved that it is forgiving for a big night out when you know you'll be eating & drinking the night away!  I found this dress to be sexy but also very tasteful.  Loved the open back.  FYI - this dress is somewhat hard to get on: do your hair/makeup/deodorant application *after* you put it on.  Also make sure you have fashion tape to secure the top so that your bits don't make an unwelcome appearance.  I thought that the dress ran somewhat large.  Didn't want to return it!

This is such a simple, elegant, sexy dress. I paired it with Givenchy gladitor sandals for a fierce summer look. SO EASY TO WEAR!!!

I rented this dress for a wedding and it looked really great and I got many compliments. It was also easy to dance in (which is very important for me) and was a very flattering shape.  I think it could be a very versatile dress, you could wear it to a wedding or a black tie event.

The top portion of the dress (the draping and the cross back) is beautiful and conceptually interesting. The dress hits just above the knees, which is pretty good given my petite size. The two problems I have are how long the straps are (make the bust part drop pretty low) and how big it made my hips look from the side and behind (the "gathered" and droopy part, where the zipper is in the picture). Given how long the top part is and how willowy the bottom part is, I would imagine a size 2 or 4 person getting away with a size 0 in this. 

FYI, I am 95/100 pounds and usually a petite size 00 or 0. 

I like the material and feel of the dress - very comfy! It hid my post prego-belly - very forgiving on flaws. I didn't need to wear a bra either since I am not well endowed anyways. I am short so the length came down to my knees, but I didn't mind it at all. I wore it with gold accessories and strappy shoes. I would recommend this dress!

The major issue I had with this dress is that it is best for someone with an A cup not a full C like myself.  I usually run a size 6/8 and ordered the 2/3.  The bodice on 3 was actually far too large but the bust was far too small.  I would not recommend this dress if you have a fuller chest; it appears to be designed for more of a straight and narrow body type.  It is interesting because I ordered another dress by the same designer and bust was fine for me in both the 2/3 sizing.
