Great for an ice rink wedding in the summer

I’m 11 months postpartum so unfortunately I had to pump in the middle of the reception. This dress is not pumping friendly, however, it was great in every other way. I did have to use an additional safety pin to keep the “girls” in place because the hook and eye wasn’t cutting it. I got endless compliments on it. Very happy with this dress.

Summer wedding with baby bump

I wore this dress while eight months pregnant for a June wedding. I wore a size large and there was still lots of room to stretch. I got lots of compliments as it definitely shows off the bump! Very nice and classy for a summer wedding while pregnant.

Baby shower perfection!

I wore this dress for my June baby shower. I am eight months pregnant. I gained a decent amount of weight (I’m normally a small/medium) and ordered a large and X-Large. I wore the large and it fit perfectly because it was stretchy. It was so light and flowy (didn’t need to wear a bra either). It was a great choice for the party. The shoulder straps are adjustable and so is the front tie. The dress is long and has a liner, so it was comfortable for sitting and standing. Very happy with this dress!

Very nice color and fit

I rented this dress because my husband was the best man and the color complimented his suit. The wedding was outside in the summer heat, so the dress did make me feel hot because it's two layers. It does have slight stretch which helped the form fitting style. I wore a medium and probably could have gone up to the large if I wanted more leg room but I had no issue sitting or dancing. It's not a "flowy" at all but I really liked it and the colors where very vibrant.

Great for my wedding rehearsal

I rented this dress for my wedding rehearsal. It was off white, more like a cream, so be warned if you were hoping for white. The sleeves were super cute and made the dress interesting.

Perfect dress for my autumn bridal shower!

I rented this dress for my mid-October bridal shower. I ordered a 4 and 6, and wore the 6 because the dress does run small. However, it was a totally beautiful dress. It was not great for sitting but for pictures and walking around, the dress was perfect. One of my favorite rentals!

This dress was modest enough for the church but fun for the reception!

This dress was a great in between for a church wedding and outdoor reception. The dress is very roomy and I did not have any issues with the sizing, color, zippers, etc. I did not give it five stars because I did look very boxy. I tried to use a belt or something to give me shape but that made it look even more odd. Oh well! The dress had pockets so overall great dress!

Endless compliments! Such a great dress for an end of summer wedding.

I received endless compliments on this dress. It was so perfect for an early September wedding while I was still tan. However, I felt squished in the small but the medium was too big in the chest. This is the reason why I gave it four stars, because I wish there was a "smedium." I wore the size small without a bra and had to suck everything, but once dancing started, I forgot all about it. I highly recommend this dress. It was a lot of fun!

Fantastic dress for an NYC birthday party

The theme of the party was Glitz & Glam - this dress was shiny, sparkly and fun! I loved that it had an internal bow and external bow to keep the dress closed up. I wore tights and Spanx since it was winter but also because of the slit, which opened up I sat down. The dress hit right at mid-thigh so it was a perfect length for fun, especially since I typically go with longer dresses. I initially I tried on the medium but it was super baggy. I wore with the size small because it was more form fitting but it was tight in my arms and across my back if I crossed my arms. Overall, a great party dress for a New York birthday party.

I got tons of compliments on this dress. Perfect for summer wedding.

I typically wear a size 4-6 so I ordered both. I ended up wearing the size 4 since the 6 was too big in the chest. The 4 fit wonderful....when I was standing up. When I sat down and after dinner, the ribs were extremely tight and I was very uncomfortable... thank goodness we only sat during the ceremony and dinner! The chest also cut very low, so I was hiking it up the whole time. But with all that, I got tons of compliments and it was great for a summer wedding.

Light and fun for a spring wedding!

The dress was very sturdy and fit well. It was modest in front coverage and in length for a church wedding. My least favorite part was that it bunched up in the middle section but this is a minor con.

Great for a winter wedding!

Pros: Super comfortable and hugs the curves in all the right spots Cons: Loose top and my bra was very exposed (I taped the fabric to my bra and didn't have any issues after that). The slit was VERY high on my leg, so high that my stocking seams were showing...I had to pin the slit at the top to make my leg less exposed by the slit.
