It killed me to give this dress back...

So I'm freakishly tall and the dress fit me like a glove everywhere except the straps. The spaghetti straps did not give me enough length in the torso so the neckline cut into my collarbone and I felt hunched over, like I couldn't stand up straight. I dearly wanted to cut the straps and add another inch of material to them, and then the dress would have fit like a dream. As it was, I couldn't wear it. I knew it would be horribly uncomfortable all night. If you are shorter than 5'11" this dress might work for you. It's definitely made for a tall girl though. Other wise the hemline would be too long. I looked into buying the dress so that I could alter it, but hello, it's over $500. So I sent it back and now I just dream about it. It was one of the most flattering dresses I've ever tried on. Thick, stretchy material that really hides any flaws. It has to be worn with a sticky bra, though. Also the top really hides that unflattering part of your armpits - at least it did on me bc I'm a 34 B. Good luck with this dress, it's amazing!

too big, I need the small

The small wasn't available so I got the medium and it was too big. The dress is very pretty, though. A bit casual for my event anyway.

too short, made for someone with a shorter torso than me

I couldn't wear this. I'm 5'11" and the waist was in the wrong place, the darts in back were too high. It was a shame bc it's a beautiful dress.

beautiful dress, cut short and rides up when you walk

My daughter who is 5'9", 125 lbs, wore this dress. We rented the size 4 and I don't know which European size that is. On her, the length was OK. However, I had rented it for myself and was disappointed that it's cut too short for someone who is 5'11". I like my dresses at the knee and this was above the knee, and rode up to mini skirt length when I walked. My daughter could've gotten away with the size 2; it wasn't very snug but still looked great.

cute, flirty, youthful

Was very cute and age appropriate for my 13 year old. She is 5'11", 125 lbs, and it was short on her, but not too short. She wore the 2.

A little short, didn't wear it, but great lines and very flattering.

The dress is so pretty and feminine. I'm 5'11" and it was a tad short to wear with heels. I loved the ruffled side. It was also a bit tight on me, not uncomfortable, but my bra lines really showed. I would have had to have some special undergarments if I had worn this.

Loved it, but it looks like a bridesmaid's dress

It was long enough! I got the 4L and I am 5'11" and about 135 pounds. Such a comfortable dress. I felt glamorous in it but ultimately, my sister ruined it for me by telling me it looked like a bridesmaid's dress. It was the perfect length with heels. I wish I hadn't even asked her opinion or I would have worn it and felt beautiful.

pretty, but too short even in the long sizes. Didn't wear.

The dress was beautiful but at least 4" inches too short. I'm a tad under 5' 11 and I couldn't even pull this off in flats. It looked ridiculous. The bodice fit nicely though. There was very little difference if any, between the 4L and the 6L as far as tightness of fit. The 6L was a bit longer, but still too short. I was heartbroken, but am going to call and see if they have an unhemmed version of this gorgeous dress.
