LOVE THIS DRESS! It is so flattering and forgiving. The fabric has some stretch so I was able to wear this even with my fuller chest - I've found that most Erin Fetherston dresses are cut for women with a smaller cup size and I was pleasantly surprised at how flattering this was. It's goth but not emo. ;)

Super Flattering
This dress is so flattering if you have a little curve. The color is a bit more pink/raspberry than the photos suggest but the color still very pretty in person. Interesting, textural, yet still appropriate for the work function I had to attend. Modest without being boring. Fits very true to size.

Shapeless, not for women with curves.
This hung awkwardly off of my chest like a tent and felt like a sack. The color is gorgeous in person but I would have taken the waist in significantly to give it actual shape if I owned the dress. Otherwise I would suggest belting the waist if you have any sort of figure. Would work great for women with slim, straight bodies. Loose fitting and a bit long so I would generally suggest sizing down.

Very Luxe
This piece is super luxe and gorgeous in person. I'd say the coloring is fairly accurate to the product photos - a sort of tawny grey/cream combo. Highly recommend.

Runs large, looks matronly.
I typically wear an 8 in Marchesa but this style ran larger than their usual 8, I should have taken a 6. Regardless, I ended up not wearing this because it reads very matronly versus the romantic look I felt it had in photos. Not Marchesa's best dress.

RUNS HUGE! But very cute and comfy.
I have a slim but very top-heavy shape. I usually wear a S/M in regular clothes, and around an 8 in designer pieces. Based on the other reviews I got the XS and I was still absolutely swimming in this. I rented it for casual wear around the holidays and it was perfect for that, one of my girlfriends joked she love my "blanket". Strongly suggest sizing way down.

Much larger than expected, strange cut.
I felt like this fit absolutely nothing like it did on the model in the photos. I am relatively tall, 5'7" - and this came down practically to the floor in the back. I found it to be too long and shapeless. The belt didn't do much to define my waistline since the top just poofed out everywhere and folded over the belt. I tried belting it different ways but it just did not work. I would say this is truly for women with long, slim, straight bodies.

Edgy but not over-the-top
This fits tight on a my fairly thin wrist so take that into consideration first and foremost. Having said that, it's so beautiful in person. Love the gold and the spikes. It adds some edge without being too wild. I got this for a party but ended up wearing it to my office as well. Hate to part with it!

Bling without being garish.
Easy glamour. Love the texture of the leather accents and the layers of sparkle.

Extremely flattering & so comfortable!
This dress is incredibly flattering - covers your stomach while flaunting your waist and bust. It shows some cleavage while still being pretty modest up top and similarly is short enough to show some leg without being too short. I especially loved the deep V back. The tulle skirt is full and beautiful and the lace is a rich, deep purply blue. I'm 5'7" / 130 and the 4 fit me perfectly with some room to breathe. It was super comfortable to wear all day into the night. I cannot recommend this gorgeous dress highly enough!!

Cute but not for busty girls.
I usually fit very easily into a size 2 from pretty much any designer butI was absolutely dying trying to squeeze my boobs into this dress! The top is NOT cut for anyone with anything beyond a small B cup - I even sized up to a 4 and it was no better on top! I couldn't believe it, I thought the top was going to burst at the seams, totally ridiculous. I think the main problem besides the cut of the top is that the fabric is very unforgiving with absolutely no stretch to it whatsoever. I ended up not wearing the dress because I couldn't hardly breathe in the 4, but if I sized up any higher the bottom half of the dress would have been much too large on me. This dress would look cute on someone more flat chested, but if you have boobs forget it.
