Stylist Review
Felt like a princess! Beautiful color and fabric, and very easy to move in. This gown does run quite small, especially in the bust area, so we definitely recommend sizing up. There is built in support, so a bra is not necessary. At 5'8" with a small heel, the gown was the perfect length just hitting the floor, so taller women need not worry!

Stylist Review
Beautiful patterning! I completely fell in love with the color, pattern, and material of this dress. The dress does run true to size, however we would recommend sizing up for a backup as it can be fitted in the bust. As there is comfortable room throughout the midsection and hips, this dress could even make for a good bump-friendly option. At 5'8" the length was perfect, although not quite floor length. Perfect summer dress to be worn up or down!

Stunning Kaufmanfranco piece! Running quite small, we would recommend sizing up for a backup. The fabric does not have much stretch, and the gown itself is generally fitted throughout, however it is extremely comfortable and form flattering. We would recommend wearing a NuBra or going without a bra as the material and the cut does not allow for a standard bra. At 5'8" with a small heel, the length was perfect. Pair with statement earrings and strappy heels, and prepare to turn heads.

Stylist Review
Felt like a princess! Beautiful fabric and beautiful color. Though the slip is fitted, this dress works for many different body types and can be a great bump-friendly option. The dress is comfortable throughout and runs fairly true to size. At 5'8" and a short heel, the regular was a perfect length. However for the taller ladies, if you do plan on wearing a substantial heel, go with the long! Dress it up with some simple accessories, and this gown would make for a perfect summer event.

Stylist Review
Beautiful color! Subtle, but sexy formal dress, with the cut outs on the side being a tasteful touch. Fitting true to size, we would recommend sizing up if you're a bit curvier. The adjustable straps definitely offset the lack of stretch in the bust area. The back is a beautiful design, however this does mean that a bra will not work, so we would recommend a NuBra. Pair with nude heels and a statement necklace for a perfect look.

Stylist Review
Beautiful lace and color! Running true to size, we recommend ordering a size up for backup. It is quite fitted at the bust, but very comfortable at the hips making it perfect for a pear-shaped woman. At 5'8" the length was not yet at my ankles, however this dress may be a bit long for a shorter woman. To remedy this, we would recommend wearing a higher heel. This dress is prefect for a daytime wedding!

Very cute pattern, perfect for a morning outing! Fit for this dress is fairly true to size, however we would recommend going up a size if you're a bit curvier as it does get snug at the hips. At 5'8" this dress hit me at about mid-thigh. Additional side note, you are able to wear a standard bra!

Beautiful and vibrant! The material is amazingly comfortable for such a fitted dress and makes you feel like a million bucks. I would recommend wearing your true size, as sizing up may be a little loose in the bust area as it was for me. Pair with a strappy heel and some simple accessories for the perfect look!

Alternative edge to a LBD! As it is quite fitted at the bust and natural waist, we do recommend sizing up for that extra comfort. We would recommend wearing a strapless bra with this dress as the sheer back is low. At 5'8" the skirt hit right above the knee, so if you are looking for something a bit more modest, this dress is perfect. Added note, the tulle is very fun!

Beautiful color! Would definitely recommend sizing up as it was very fitted at the bust (34B for reference) . The fuller skirt allows comfortable room for a curvier woman, and could even be a great bump-friendly option. There is built in support, so a bra is not necessary. At 5'8" the highest point hit right below my knee. Great option for a day to night event!

Unique, alternative print! Running true to size, I did wear my normal size 4. However I would recommend sizing down if you have a smaller bust, as it was quite loose on me up top. The fuller skirt makes this a very comfortable choice for a curvier woman. We would recommend wearing a strapless bra, as the straps of the dress are a sheer material. At 5'8" this dress was almost knee length for me. Pair with a cute pair of heels and simple accessories!
