The sleeves...

It's super cute, but the sleeves are a little extra for my small frame. I'd recommend for someone tall and less busty so the sleeves compliment instead of making you look top heavy. I kind of felt like trendy batwoman in it, not a bad thing but didn't work for me & was returned.

Gorgeous, needs a little fixing

Wore this at about 18 weeks pregnant for a wedding. It was gorgeous, but the straps are SO long! I had to safety pin them, luckily I had someone help me and you can hide it between the extra fabric and the dress itself. Couldn't wear a bra without seeing the center of it though. If the straps weren't an issue I'd rent it again. It was a tad on the long side but worked for me since I had a bump.

Couldn't wear

I can't quite tell you what made this not work, but I think if you're less curvy on top and have a longer torso this could work for you. It's very pretty, fabric is nice and thick, skirt is beautiful. No matter how I tied the back, it was buckling on me above and below my chest, so I couldn't wear it. Ps - skirt is pretty short with all of its fullness, even on my petite height.

Beautiful, lots of compliments!

Beautiful dress, I was afraid it might be too long but it was perfect with heels. Fabric is super THICK, but perfect for our winter holiday party. If your busty, be prepared to suck it in. The 0 wouldn't zip, the 2 just did but was definitely flattening me out. Size up as a backup if you're larger than a B.

Pretty Casual

Fits good - loose, a little low in the front and a little short in the back. Overall great, I got it to wear on my birthday, it's definitely casual unless you spice it up in heels and jewels. Good for the summer.

Obsessed!

This dress fits perfectly, and is totally gorg! Slimming and flattering. True to size, stretchy, could go even one size up as a back up. You can't really wear a bra with this one as the straps show and when you make them a racer, you can see it through the key hole. But its supportive enough without. So many compliments from friends, fam and the bf! Would buy if I could.

Didn't work for me

I'm only 5'1", but this dress was down to my knee's, and the slit wasn't noticeable, so I suppose it runs big. The back straps made the front fit strange, I think the best candidate for this dress is tall and narrow.

Not flattering at bust

So beautiful in pictures here, but it wasn't working for me. It was too big and not showing any shape on my chest, and quite short too. Unflattering, sadly it went back.

great for smaller bust

this dress is really cute, beware that the top is VERY tight, so not good if you have a chest. I ordered a size up and the bottom half was too wide when the top fit. the cut along the top and the straps does give it more of a casual party feel, so if you're trying to get pretty dressy, you'll definitely need a statement necklace to dress it up.

fun, party dress

this dress was cute-very tight, pretty short, exposed zipper- it looked like I should be going out clubbing though, not appropriate for the event I was going to. Also, the bunching of fabric was in very weird spots that actually GAVE me a stomach and took away any good curves. so it went back.

great dress

this dress is beautiful. I am petite, and I was able to pull it off--usually a size 0 does fine on me but it was slightly big.. just a little roomy, but definitely not super fitted. I'd still say it runs true to size. it looked elegant and since it wasn't my big day it was totally fine. some say it was short but I didn't have that problem (I'd say if you're above 5'5" it might be toward the shorter side) also, it photographs really well!

awesome party dress

I rented this for my work holiday party, it looked great! (also, looks better in person, honestly.) it was SUPER tight and I usually wear a 0 or 2 max but wore the 4. I also paired it with some comando tights for a natural slimming effect. The seams around the arms were a little weird on my dress particularly that made it come out a bit but it was really only noticeable to me. a really fun dress- just make sure to size up!

LOVE

This dress was perfect for my bf's holiday party! It looked great- very classy and conservative without being boring. I do have a larger chest and it was pretty tight up top though. Besides that it was amazing, I definitely recommend it and will probably rent it again!
