Classic, beautiful look
This dress was fabulous. Such a flattering dress, particularly for those who carry extra weight in the stomach-area. The peplum covers everything up! Also, the stretchy fabric gives you some wiggle room in terms of sizing, but is still thick enough that it doesn't show every bump. The only downside is that it's only pull over your head, so it's a little difficult to make sure you don't get any makeup/deodorant on it or mess up your hair!

Great party dress!
Such a fun dress! A great option if you want a little more coverage. The arms have the right among of pouf to add an extra layer of fun. The dress has a nice give to it, so you don't have to worry about it being too small and the layered fabric hides any issues! Really loved this dress and will rent again.

Great everyday dress that it a little extra
Fabric is a bit thin; definitely make sure to wear dark undergarments. A slip would be helpful to wear to help prevent cling and have it sit better on the body. I normally don't love a flutter sleeve, but these are flattering.

Beautiful dress,, runs small
This dress was too tight for me to wear. As mentioned by others, you do need to pull it over your head to put on due to the collar, so you don't definitely don't want it too tight. Size up if you order!

Beautiful fabric, strange fit
I wanted to love this dress, but I wouldn't recommend it for women under 5'4". The torso was quite long, so it hit in all the wrong spots. I'm a D cup and came nowhere close to filling out the top. It's also on the longer side, so again be weary if you're on the shorter side.

Great easy, flattering dress
This is a great versatile dress that I think would work for a variety of body types. The dress has a lot of give, so don't worry so much about it not fitting. I went with the larger size because I thought it hung a little better, but I think you can really size up or size down with this one. The only annoying thing was that my heel kept getting caught in the lining. I'm about 5'4" and wore 3.5 inch heels. The dress skimmed the ground perfectly, but I had to keep pulling it free from my shoe.

Backup dress for wedding
I got this dress in case my first dress didn't work out. Luckily it did! I found this dress ran narrow through the waist (even with spanx on). It also came up really high in the front, almost uncomfortably so. I wouldn't suggest this for big busted women as I had trouble getting it zippered as a result.

Great dress for a formal wedding
Thought the fit was good. Maybe a little on the larger side. Had some issues with the top. The right sleeve kept falling a bit off my shoulder (and I have wide shoulders). Maybe not the best option for big busted girls as it's not easy to wear a bra with. Definitely would recommend getting one of the sticky bras to help. I'm only 5'4" and found the dress to be a little on the shorter side as with 2-3 inch heels, the dress didn't come to the floor. However, with all that, it's a great dress and I got a ton of compliments.

Loved this dress
I thought this dress was great and I got a ton of compliments. It's a fun way to add some glitz to an event. I would say the dress runs a tad large. I'm broad shouldered and busty and the dress was even a smidge loose on top. I would suggest ordering a size down if you think there is a chance it may be too big. Even though it's sequins, there is definitely some give in the dress, so you could definitely squeeze in and with the ruching, I don't think anyone could even tell.
