Loved the look
I wore this to a black tie optional city wedding. I could have worn either the two or four - fabric is a little forgiving. I went with the two for a sleeker look (though it was tight on my thighs for dancing). I didn’t have any issues with the straps falling. Also, there is a slight train in the back so it will drag on the floor.

Halloween wedding
This dress was perfect for a formal Halloween weekend wedding in NY. Needed fashion tape to make sure there were no gaps. As others mentioned, I couldn’t fully lift my arms. But I did appreciate the empire waist meant no shape wear was needed! FYI the dress isn’t very long. Fine with heels but it wouldn’t have looked right if I was wearing flats. All that side the vibe was perfect and I got so many compliments. Would definitely recommend.

Just okay
I got this as a last minute backup dress for a wedding. I could've worn a size 4 so I didn't end up wearing it. Outside of the sizing issue, I thought the dress was just okay. I didn't think the small ruffles were very flattering.

Beautiful sleeves
This was a backup dress for a wedding so I didn't end up wearing it. However I loved the fit and look of it. Would be perfect for a fall wedding. Would rent it again.

Very flattering
Size 4 fit great. I loved the delicate layers and pattern. I was able to breastfeed. The fabric isn't that breathable so it did get a little sticky in the summer heat. Would definitely recommend.

Fun earrings
These earrings were a great addition to my velvet jumpsuit. While I thought they were a little heavy when I first tried them on, I didn't notice them at all during the wedding. I received lots of compliments. The best part? They glow in the dark! Would highly recommend; I want to buy them. Only downside was the pair I got were a little worn in. Probably ready to be retired.

Fit perfectly
Loved this dress! I fit into both the small and medium, but decided to wear the medium as it wasn't as tight on my arms. I did wear a strapless bra to fill out the bust a bit. It was perfect for my 1920s themed birthday party. Would recommend!

Fierce
I love this necklace. I have worn it to weddings and to the office. It adds a fierce, modern touch. It lays flat on my neck.

Flashy!
It was big enough to fit my phone, but not too much else. Loved the look!

So many compliments!
I thought the fit was great - the fabric was heavier than I expected so definitely good for a black tie winter wedding. The arm holes were small so the netting annoyed me a bit, but nothing too terrible. It does wrinkle - I had to iron in between the ceremony and reception. However, so many compliments made it worth it. I could even wear it with flats!

Great statement dress!
The fit was flattering as the material is stretchy and hugged in the right places. The one disadvantage, like other reviews, was that I couldn't lift my arms up all the way -- hampering my dance moves! Would still recommend.
