comfortable, yet stylish choice for a daytime event
When the dress I initially ordered didn't work out, this was a last minute exchange. I loved the way this looked way more than my original option! The color is vibrant and the fit is flattering, which is a big deal for me since I just had a baby a few months prior. Even though I'm still busty, it was a bit looser on top, so smaller ladies should consider sizing down.

Night on the town in festive holiday colors!
This dress is very cute -- the colors are vivid, it has (hidden) pockets in the front, and the cut is extremely flattering. It was much smaller on top, so busty girls (C-cup and up) should consider sizing up. It also has a deep plunging neckline, but it's nothing that can't be fixed by wearing a camisole underneath. Overall, a great rental!

Flattering, but runs small
This dress has a very flattering cut, although it runs small on top, so bustier women should size up. Love that it had pockets! The only downside was I wasn't too fond of the material -- it felt like I skinned a couch and made a dress out of it like Scarlett O'Hara. In the end, I feel like the rental price was more expensive than the dress was really worth.

Cute, but tight in the bust
This is a very cute dress -- flattering cut and a vibrant, beautiful color! As mentioned in the previous reviews, it runs small in the bust, so order a size up if you're a C-cup or above! It was shorter than I thought it would be as well.

Cute and versatile dress
Cute dress with nice fabric -- the color was vibrant and I loved the pockets! I rented this for my friends' rehearsal dinner during their wedding weekend. Loved that it was fitted on top and flared out at the bottom. My only complaint is that I thought it was too short while sitting down. I'm not a tall person, but it was uncomfortable trying to pull the skirt down every time I sat.

Perfect for an outdoor wedding!
Rented this for an outdoor wedding last weekend. The color is incredibly vibrant and it was so comfortable. Loved the pockets -- it helped me keep my camera handy all throughout the reception! Keep in mind that there is crinoline on the skirt lining, so that makes the bottom much fuller than a normal A-line dress. Since I have some booty to begin with, I wasn't expecting to add more! Also had to use fashion tape to make the top portion of the dress lay correctly, so have some handy just in case!

Ringing in 2012 in style!
I rented this dress for dinner and a party on New Year's Eve. The material is much more beautiful in person than in the picture -- you can really see the detail. This was my first experience with and off-the-shoulder dress and it fit nicely, although the top was very fitted so bustier girls might want to size up (I'm a C-cup and was just able to zipper it up). Overall I was very happy with this rental!

Awkward cut
While the color of this dress is stunning, the cut leaves a lot to be desired. The lower half was very constricting, while the top portion was way too big. I have more of an hourglass figure, so it was just unflattering on all parts. The sewn in slip created a created a weird bulge in the middle section too. Although this is a beautiful dress, I don't recommend it for hourglass or pear-shaped figures.

Looking flashy for a group dinner on the Strip!
Rented this for a weekend in Las Vegas -- it's certainly a very flashy dress! The overall fit was great -- however, the sequins and dress material became itchy over the course of a few hours.

These earrings were beyond fabulous in person! I rented them for a wedding. They were a little heavy, so I couldn't wear them all night, but they really glammed up the dress I wore.

This dress fit like a glove! It was fitted on the top but flared out at the skirt, which was perfect since I have a small waist but am bottom heavy. It was incredibly comfortable and I was able to dance all night.

Its My Birthday Dress

Sexy party dress
I rented this dress for a night out in Las Vegas. The large was a little too baggy on top (the straps were very long and didn't lay right), so I wore the medium. Very form fitting and sexy dress. I wouldn't recommend this dress for anyone with a c-cup for larger. I'm a 36C hourglass figure and was practically spilling out of the top! It was great for the party occasion, but I wouldn't rent this for something more formal.
