I wore this dress three times. Almost bought it--was just too long and low-cut.
Beautiful maxi. Heavy yet breathable fabric, nice flow, super comfortable. Appropriate day or night. Note: I disagree a bit with the reviews that deem it figure-flattering, because I'm busty and it didn't gather enough below the bust at my natural waist--and there was no way to tighten it. Also, it was VERY low-cut. Must wear with tall heels if you're a normal height (I'm 5'4) or otherwise the hem will drag on the ground.

A great dress for a Miami dinner party. I wore it twice--felt good and got compliments both times.
Not too short and not too tight, but quasi-fitted and flattering. The sleeves make it unique and eye-catching, but other than that detail, it could be a daytime work dress. I wore it to a dinner party in a restaurant and to a dine-around festival in a hotel ballroom. It worked for both.

Perfect standout dress for a work event
Wore this to a convention, where most people dress in business clothes. I didn't want to blend into the scenery, but at the same time, I was afraid this dress would be too slutty for the crowd/event. Not so. I immediately gained confidence after I tried it on & noticed the quality of fabric and workmanship. It was so perfect, the first person I had a meeting with (a 40something executive from a shipping company) was ALSO wearing it. I kept this dress and wore it to another work event the next week--after-work mixer at a Miami nightclub--and people told me that I was dressed just right for that one too. So: Versatile, flattering, noticeable, looks expensive. This one's a winner. Highly recommend

This piece runs large--I was swimming in the 6, and ended up not wearing it.
I got this dress in my Unlimited package, but if it was a normal rental, I would have ordered a size 4 backup & ended up wearing it. As it happened, I received only the 6 and it was too big. Specifically, it looked like it was made for a much taller person. I returned it without wearing it.

A beautiful springtime frock--dressy without being over-formal
Wore this to a work event on a cruise ship in the daytime. It's a beautiful dress. The fabric is very delicate, so I was nervous every moment that I wore it. And it didn't fit my particular figure (large-busted and not very tall) perfectly. The lines were a tiny bit off. But it's so pretty, I still felt good in it. Would not wear this one at the office, but would suggest for important brunches, daytime outdoor parties, etc.

Great dress for any occasion
I wore this dress a couple times, including just to go walk around a neighborhood with a group of colleagues. People really noticed it, in a good way. It looks very sophisticated, a bit business-sexy, and flattering. I got compliments from European women, which I consider a true indicator of fashion success. :)

Felt a bit frumpy, but the fabric was beautiful
This wrap dress really would not fit to accentuate my shape no matter how I tried to cinch the waist. I felt like a large hippie, especially in comparison to many women wearing tight-fitted sheaths (which is what I usually wear). This was a daytime spring event, so I felt like the fabric and flowiness was more appropriate for the occasion than wearing a tight dark-colored dress. And I got a couple compliments about the fabric. It was obviously a well made dress. But overall, I just felt like there was too much of it.
