I rented this dress for a wedding, and was very excited to get to wear it. unfortunately, the dress did not fit me anything like it does on the model in the picture. The fabric on this dress is beautiful, however there is a lot of it, and it is very baggy in sections (specifically above the belted waist). I have hips and this dress made them look 400 times larger than they are. *Beware* curvy women that this dress does not flatter those with hips/a tush.
