Cute but awkward to wear
I like the look and feel of this dress however there are multiple details that keep me from loving it. As others have mentioned the dress doesn't have enough overlap to wear it with being worried about the front opening. Also it's hard to keep the stripes on either side lined up

Amazing fit and stretch but still quality fabric
Show everything off without being over the top sexy!

Fun dress, more skirt than expected
Love the fit of the top of this dress. Was ok with the bottom half. The skirt was a bit more flouncy/stiff than I was expecting. Not bad just unexpected

Busty girls beware!
The chest area on this top was like a no stretch bandeau that gave the worst pancake/uni-boob effect. Probably fine for smaller chested. It was a shame because I loved everything else about it

looove this dress!!!
Sadly I can't find the picture for this one but it was an amazing sheath dress and I'm going to have to rent it now in every color!! Excellent fit for me given that I'm an hourglass long torso, that lifts heavy. Enough stretch to hug everything in the right way and the built in slip helps it skim over undergarments. Sexy but professional

No stretch!
The dress was nice quality but I wound up feeling more 'cute' than 'beach sexy' like I was hoping. Still a great dress just not for me. I wore it with no bra as there was any extra room In there for me

Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"

Quality fabric
Loved the body hugging style, definitely needs shapewear, but it's worth it. Usual struggle for me was the arms and bust were a bit tight but it wasn't a deal breaker. Kept its shape over multiple wears

Comfortable and stylish
Felt sexy and fun in this dress, as others have I wore it as a cowl neck which was actually perfect for Seattle's early spring weather. I'm excited to order more from this designer

Comfortable and easy
Really comfortable and easy to wear so long as you are creative and flexible enough to do the zipper. I uses a safety pin at the bust to keep it together and it looked great! I have a long torso and this one fit perfect

Loved this dress!! Wore the 12L
Was an amazing fit and color! Awesom fabric thick but stretchy. Got the tall because i have a long torso and the level of the hips needs to be lower for me. Was perfect with heels, but a little too long with out.

Everyone love this dress!
I loved it overall only cons are: I am long waisted so the 'waist band' hit me at the ribs which somewhat bothered me as I usually like things more fitted and waist defined, however i was a bridesmaid so I was happy to let the bride shine. Loved how well the V front stayed in place!
Fifth Avenue Showstopper Dress

Great fit
Just the right amount of stretch and I wound up not having to wear a bra which was great sat the neck line would have made it tricky. The color was great too! Loved the pockets. Wish I owned this piece!!
