Flattering and professional
Loved this dress and it was great for work. It even has pockets. Folding the sleeves was a bit challenging.

Unique pattern and collar makes it stand out
Liked this one and it was a standout pattern. Perfect for zoom calls! It’s tight around the arms but I thought it was flattering.

Flattering dress, bit old fashioned
The buttons are round and pearl-looking, which makes it look a bit like something my grandma would wear. But it was flattering and comfortable.

Looked and felt cheap
I wanted to love this one but it looked cheap with the small collar and was pretty scratchy. I’d also say it’s not for taller girls since it wouldn’t stay tucked in because it was too short.

Not for wide hops
I didn’t wear this one because it fit weird on the hips. It was tight around the waist and then too loose on top. Not a fan.

Cute design and flattering,…but nothing special
This is a great everyday dress. The fruit pattern is unique and the dress was mostly flattering. I wore it to work a couple times. Very thin fabric was perfect for a hot summer day.

These pants sadly ended about three inches above my ankles. I’m almost 5’8 and pants normally aren’t that short of me, but these were not wearable.

Fit great I didn’t zip to the top since the turtle neck felt restricting and I thought it was nicer open at the neck. Very flattering lines. Will rent again.

Flattering and comfortable
Loved this dress. It has a cut/pattern that makes it very flattering around the tummy area. It’s a perfect summer dress because it’s light. It was a comfortable/soft material.

2 sizes too small
Ordered size 29 and I normally wear size 28/29, but these pants weren’t even close to buttoning. At least two sizes too small. I think they shrunk.

Nothing special
I sized up based on other reviews so it fit nicely around the waist but then everything else was too big. It looked better with the sleeves rolled up.

Nothing special and adds to the hips
The flare at the hips makes this dress look frumpy. It’s nothing special. I wore to work, but am not renting again.

Statement dress that is very flattering
Beautiful purple definitely makes a statement, but it's also a fit that flatters curves. The little ruffling around the stomach hide a bit of a belly as well. I loved this dress.

Extremely boxy and the shoulders were huge. It looked like I was wearing shoulder pads and my shoulders are wide enough as it is.

Stand out color and design
In a sea of black dresses and plain designs, this dress stood out and looked fantastic! Great cut and was very flattering. I could have worn the six or eight, but opted with size 8 because the smaller size puffed out a bit too much at the bottom. I was very comfortable in both. Great dancing dress. Looks good with gold shoes and accessories.

People thought I bought this dress and had it fitted for me. It was gorgeous and a perfect length for me to wear heels. Highly recommend for a black tie wedding.

Fun party dress!
My husband and his friends picked out this dress because they were wearing bow ties to a derby birthday party and they thought this dress was ridiculous...turns out it was awesome. My husband said he liked it better than some of the dresses I wore to weddings. I wore the 8 but could have fit into the 6, but it was super comfortable and loads of fun. It's very beige though...the pictures make it look white with black bow ties and it's not white at all.

Unique dress but material doesn't breathe!
Really liked the dress. Stretchy material was very comfortable except when I was outside....the material is very thick and hot. I have broad shoulders, so the dress puckered a bit because the seam didn't make it to the end of my shoulder but a bigger size would have been too big everywhere else. I'm usually a 6 or 8, so the medium was a good fit. The pattern is awesome. Very unique.

Gorgeous and stands out in a crowd
Loved this dress! Beautiful pattern and perfect for an outdoor party. I wore pink shoes, but white or blue would have worked also. Dress is flattering and comfortable. I didn't discover the pockets until the end of the night... they are a bit hidden.

Very flattering...great silver and blue colors
Fit was tight on top...I'm a 36B and it was a tight squeeze to zip the dress. You show some cleavage. But it was extremely flattering. Blue and silver flowers are brighter in person which makes the dress prettier than the pictures. Loved it.

Gorgeous design and flattering fit!
I wore this to a wedding rehearsal dinner and got loads of complements. It was extremely comfortable. My only issue is I should have worn a very plain bra, as the outline of the bra showed through the dress. It was very comfortable and flattering. A bit thicker than expected, so better for spring/fall than summer event.

Stand out amongst the black...
This dress was great for a summer wedding...maybe a bit too casual for something not outdoors. It's a very light material, but you also can't see any sweat when sitting in the sun waiting for the ceremony to start. Fits true to size.

Stand out dress
Beautiful dress....perfect for a cocktail attire wedding, if not a bit fancier. The top is black lace, but the flash from photos makes the white underneath come through more than it does in person. The pockets were amazing and could hold a lot since the bottom was so large. Bottom of the dress was a bit too "poofy"....looks awesome standing, but makes it a bit difficult to sit and you have to remember the re-arrange the tulle underneath after visiting the ladies room or there could be a fashion disaster. Overall....loved it and would rent again. I wore the 8 because the 6 was a bit tight in the chest area and I wanted to be comfortable.

This dress is more vibrant blue than it appears in the pictures. I saw many comments about the dress being tight around the arms, but I didn't have that problem. Fit perfectly and I received many compliments.

Perfect dress for a casual, outdoor summer wedding.
I received a lot of compliments on this dress. I wore it to an outdoor wedding...the sun was beating down on us for the ceremony but this dress is a good color and material to keep me a bit cooler. Loved the pockets! Nice and loose and perfect for dancing. It's great for a casual day wedding, as the it's a bit short for anything fancier. The only down-side is the dress was a bit wrinkled in front and I wasn't able to un-wrinkle it, although that was mostly hidden by the pleats. I decided against a necklace because of the keyhole on the top of the dress, and wore green earrings and a gold bracelet instead. Two thumbs up for this dress.
