I loved this dress and it broke my heart not to wear it
I rented this dress for my friends baby shower. It's a gorgeous dress. Just from trying it on when it arrived, the material is light and breathable. The pattern is amazing. It's very flattering. Unfortunately, I was quite sick and didn't want to put my friend and her baby at risk so I never got to do more than try it on.

Too low cut to wear out
I couldn't figure out how to not have the top flop down.

This was one of the most complemented dresses I have ever worn!
It's form fitting and so sparkly. It's really a stand out. One of my all time favorite rentals

I love the fit and style of this dress!
It's pretty and unique without being to much for a more casual party. The only issue is the side zipper is hard to zip. I find that to be true of nearly all side zippers though.

Floral and summery
I really like the material of this dress. The sleeves are pretty puffy but that's kinda of the style right now. The pattern is really feminine and cute.

Colorful and fun
I really love the color and fit of the dress overall but on the downside it wrinkles really easily. I'm glad I took a picture right at the beginning of the day. I steamed the dress before leaving the house because I figured it just got wrinkled shipping which would be pretty normal but it looked like I never touched it within about 1/2 an hour. Still very pretty.

Awkward cut
I didn't end up wearing this, the side look like they were cut unevenly and layered kind of weird.

Unique and cute
This is really cute and different but maybe because it runs a bit big the back dips pretty low.

Works as a super fancy hairband!
I took a chance seeing that this necklace tied and wore it as a hairband. I was really excited it worked out and looked cute!

Super gorgeous pattern!
Super gorgeous pattern! Very fitted but the fabric is thick enough the spanx don't show through. :) It's tight around the waist which makes it a bit difficult to zip. If you are between sizes go up for sure but you should be good to go when it's past the pipping.

Versatile Dress for Bridal Shower and Bachelorette Party
I loved this dress. It's been a cooler Summer this year and this fabric was perfect. I felt like the waist sat a little low on me personally so I added a belt but that was just my personal taste. The fabric is pretty stretchy except at the waist and even though the dress was a good fit, I had some trouble with the zipper (up and down) at the seam. I had a ton of compliments on the dress at my friends bridal shower. I wanted to look extra nice as the matron of honor!

Runs VERY small
I got this as one of several back ups sent to me when my original pick couldn't be sent because of previous damages and this one was practically laughably small. It didn't zip at all. I ended up wearing a size 10 in another dress and this one the 12 was significantly smaller than that.

Really cute but a bit small to fit my phone well
This purse is super cute but I kind of had to angle my phone in to get it to fit and then it was hard to get it back out. (I have a galaxy S4) but with a smaller phone, it would have been perfect.

This dress was perfect to transition from my bridal shower to a classy bachelorette party!
This dress was not my original pick but it really worked out well! It has enough sparkle for night but a cut that works for day as well, I'm really happy with how it worked out. I got a ton of compliments on it and it photographs well too. It runs a little bit big but not a lot. If you order your size and down one for a back up, you should be all set :)

With free shipping and a birthday dress, it's totally worth it.
Such a clever idea to be able to wear something special and different at events.

Great dress for a night at the symphony!
This is a great spring dress. I loved the pink and black together. It is thicker layered material so it was warm enough with a shrug and tights for mid-western April weather. As several other reviews have mentioned, it's tight through the rib cage which is why I went with the bigger size. Other than that, it was pretty perfect!
