Gorgeous, unique dress
The dress was very comfortable and quite striking with the interesting neckline/exposed shoulder. I was able to squeeze into the small but probably could have gone up to a medium (135 lbs, 5'5"). The zipper was difficult to get over the seam at the waist, but with a helper was able to do it. Probably not a great dress if you're going to be dancing all night because the neckline restricts your arm movement a bit (if you like to waive your hands around), but otherwise was a stunner. Would rent again.

Comfortable, fun and great for dancing!
Beautiful material, built in bra so good fit, although I found myself pulling up every so often during he night. I rented both a 4 and 6, and the 4 definitely fit me better (135lb,36A).

Weird fit
Beautiful color and liked the general style, but found the bust to be disproportionally large to the waist/butt area. The top kind of fit on the small, but I felt a little like a sausage because of the sheath shape, and the medium fit well on the bottom but was huge on the top-I'd have to take in a good 2 to 3 inches of the straps to not be gaping open. I'm 3 months postpartum and breastfeeding (approx. 145 lbs, 5'4", 34B-C), so still getting back to my normal size but was hoping this would have fit better.

Dress was perfect for Elvis-inspired cocktail event!
The bright red color is very vivid, and fabric is nice and sturdy lace. The bodice was pretty roomy (maybe too roomy if you have a smaller chest), and top has a tie back, so is somewhat adjustable. Because of the open back, you'd have to either go bra-less or wear a stick on bra (what I did). I didn't love the length... it hit around mid-shin on me (5'4"), but it worked for a less formal event.

Didn't fit.
After reading reviews, I sized up but should have sized up even more! I tried the medium but couldn't quite get the side-zip to close and knew I would have been uncomfortable even if I had. The material is a nice heavy weight with a little stretch, but it is not too forgiving to squeeze into. I think the open back could be very flattering but make sure you get the right size so it fits your shoulders properly. I think the dress has potential in the right size, but alas, I missed my chance.

LOVED this dress!
This was a beautiful dress perfect for a holiday party. The vibrant red color is gorgeous and the material is a nice weight to keep you warm without being too heavy. I found the dress very comfortable to wear. The plunging v neck is very flattering, even for smaller busts- I used some fashion tape to make sure it wouldn't dip too low. I felt great all night and would love to wear this again. The length is not quite to the floor, so your shoes peak out, but I thought this made it easier to move in.

Perfect for a black-tie Gala at the Art Museum
I loved this dress and got compliments throughout the night. It is very elegant and was comfortable to wear-- the top has some built in boning so you can probably go without a bra. The length was great with my 2.5-3" heels. Only the 4 was available when I ordered, but I probably could have also worn a 2, which would have given a snugger fit. I am not very well endowed, so I did have to pull the dress up a few times during the night, but nothing terrible. Overall had a great experience with this dress.
