Great if you like shapeless sacks

I actually LOL'd when I put this on. Resembled a huge tent. I'm tall and this was still very long and just SO MUCH MATERIAL. Maybe if I'd gotten a XS it would have resembled a dress but otherwise, no way.

Was just ok.

Wasn't memorable. Walking around the legs would bunch up around the crotch.

Nice pattern and form fit

Just ok. I wore this with black jeans for a casual day at work. Though the sweater is pretty, nothing special about it. Nice that it is more form fitting though so it doesn't appear as sloppy as other sweaters can look.

Adorable length for tall girls!

Fit perfectly. A tiny bit too high waisted (but I am very short waisted with little torso, so perhaps it's just me?) Cute cropped jeans that you could wear again and again.

Very cute with a blouse and jeans for work. Nothing memorable, but made for a nice outfit.

Sleeves were a bit narrow near the elbows and since they were cropped it made bending my arms a bit tricky.

Gorgeous, but heavy

Beautiful dress, appeared high quality however it felt appropriate for a winter event (not summer/fall). I rented a 10, but it was large - I could have easily sized down to an 8. Very lovely though, the pockets a bonus. I would consider this for a winter ball for sure.

Gorgeous - a stand out

Fit perfectly - ended up wearing a bra but probably didn't have to. Extremely comfortable, no undergarments required. The long is long, however at 5'9" with 3" heels it was perfect for me. Gorgeous colors and I received many compliments. It's an expensive dress and it shows like one. Highly recommend.

Conservative and sexy all at once

It fit perfectly around the middle and legs, though even for my larger chest it was a bit big. The sides by the arm holes came down quite low, so any bra would have shown. Perhaps if the top was tighter I could have gone sans bra? Overall though, a bit of tape could have fixed that and would have been worth it because the dress was so lovely. I went with another, but this was a solid back-up.

Lovely. Wore it with a black t-shirt and chunky necklace. Lovely item.

No issues, except on the 10 (which I didn't wear) the zipper was sewn incorrectly causing it to lump and not fall correctly. The 8 fit the way I wanted it to, so it was fine, but the poor sewing could be an issue for others renting the bigger size.

Poofy skirt!

I opted to not wear this dress, but I did try it on. The bust is excellent - very supportive with double zippers. Even a busty girl like me could have gone sans-bra. No undergarments are needed for this dress, so that is a huge plus. What I didn't like about the dress was the skirt appeared much fuller in person than in the picture. It really poofed out - so if that is the "fun" look you want, it's a great dress. However, if you are looking for a sexy dress, this isn't going to provide that silhouette

Gorgeous dress that is extremely comfortable

The dress is extremely comfortable. There is a sheer fabric that goes up to the neck that holds the dress in place, but once it's on it is undetectable. The neckline is lovely, but per other folks, the bust is tight. The size 10 barely zipped over my chest, while the rest of the dress fit perfectly. The lace on mine was slightly pulled in some locations, but some quick snips of loose threads and all was fine. Overall, a lovely dress for a formal occasion that received many compliments from strangers around.

Hugs every curve and was still very comfortable

Fantastic color - a reddish pink in person. I didn't need spanx because of the thick fabric. It was comfortable to wear all night long, didn't hike up or bunch up anywhere. Not for the timid who don't want to stand out!

Very slim cut, but fun, thick fabric.

I have an hour glass figure and wore spanx, so the dress fit great (smooth, no lumps) but the cut is very slim - not for someone with curves. The top is not meant for a larger bust and the lower hem was so narrow that I could barely get out of cars/walk up stairs. Very cute dress, but perhaps best for a standing-only cocktail party. Don't expect to dance or move much in it! (note, I was slimmer then - est 155 lbs, size 6, 5'9")

Gorgeous fun dress, but fabric is rather thin

I wanted to LOVE this dress, but the fabric was rather thin. Any undergarments I tried wearing and they showed through. I ended up wearing a back-up.

Nice heavy fabric, flip at hem makes it interesting. Colors are vibrant and fun.

It seemed to run small as I typically wear an 8. The 10 fit nicely (perhaps I could have worn the 8, but I didn't find it as comfortable). Regular undergarments can be worn. It was chilly so I paired mine with a black leather jacket and it looked great. Fun color, definitely a departure from a boring black dress. I would recommend.

Beautiful dress, didn't fit

Lovely dress, would certainly receive many compliments but I didn't find the fabric all that forgiving. Also, I'm quite short waisted and this didn't seem to cinch me in the right place. Perhaps because I'm larger busted? Overall, lovely dress but it didn't fit my body style well.

Most comfortable dress ever

This dress is by far the most comfortable I have ever worn. It looked amazing on, especially with a pendant style necklace as shown in the photo. The fabric is extremely soft and stretchy, so it's quite forgiving. Wonderful dress that I wish I owned.

Very beautiful dress, but would be better for a night out or a new-years party vs. a wedding or similar event. Be prepared, this dress weighs a ton! Agreed that it does not define the waist well, but would look cute paired with a short leather jacket to define and add a rocker-esq look.

Adorable dress and looks very cute on. I'm 5'9" and without opaque tights I would be uncomfortable with how short it was - hit me mid-thigh. Found the royal blue to stand out more than in the photos, which was a plus and added to the dress even more. Pattern and cut hides a tummy.
