Meh - Didn't Change My Life
This dress was sent to me in only one size XS when my original choice didn't work. I would have felt way more comfortable with a S however - this dress fit I think the way these dresses are supposed to fit (very tight). As opposed to what others said I did not feel like it stretched out. It DID give me cleavage which was fun because as a 32B that doesn't happen very often. I loved that I could wear a regular bra with this dress. Overall though, this dress was so conservative looking - just not what I wanted for my sister's bachelorette party. I was comfortable in it all night, I will say that. It just lacked the WOW factor I was looking for.

Not for anyone with less than a C cup
I had this dress reserved for months for my sister's bachelorette. I ordered a S and XS. Well, I got a S and another S with "XS" written on the tag in ink. I first tried on the S which fit great except the chest was humongous. I'm a 32B so I didn't think much of it until I tried on the "XS" which fit exactly the same except this time the chest was only way too big as opposed to humongous. Further the back gaped so even if I could wear a padded bra it would not have solved the fit problem. I laid the dresses out one on top of the other and could see no discernible difference in size at all between the S and the "XS." The only thing I can figure is that the chest on the S had been stretched out way more than the top on the "XS". Additionally I also noticed on the back bottom part of the skirt on the "XS" there was some kind of permanent stain where it looked like maybe the fabric had been burned? It was only noticeable in certain light but when it is noticeable it is quite noticeable and not a stain I would want to walk around in. I was so disappointed with this dress. There is really no good way to wear a bra not even a nu bra. I would advise unless you have a larger chest and are totally comfortable going braless that you opt for another dress. This one has just been worn and stretched too many times.

Shoshanna comes through again!
I love Shoshanna dresses, and this one was no exception. I rented a 0 and a 2 and I wore the 0 because the 2 was very frayed and worn-in looking. I would say it was in bad enough shape it probably shouldn't be rented out anymore. The 0 was just fine, though. The dress is beautiful, comfortable, and short! So make a note if you're taller than 5' 6" - but I loved it!

They're earrings. Looked nice with my dress but nothing special.

Want to Buy It
I love this dress so much I'd buy it. It is so beautiful and fun. The fabric is so nice, the dress is comfortable. It is short (I'm 5' 8" and wanted to show a photo with the length for you) but I didn't mind. No Spanx necessary, either. I went with the 0 because the armpits were a little gap-y in the 2. I'm a 32Bish bust. The 2 had a longer length but I was comfortable with the 0. I love this dress.
