Loved the style and originality of this dress!
I wore this to a pretty fancy wedding and loved it. The red steps it up a notch and lace is always a classy and sexy choice. Only problem is that this dress, and another one like it that I rented, runs a bit big in the waist. This time I ordered one size down for my backup size but because of the poofy tulle it was too short. I think it had been worn a bunch because even though I tried to iron the tulle (low heat) so it would lay flat, it still stuck out too much. I didn't want to burn it with the iron so I did the same to the size 6 and wore that one. This is a common problem for me though, either things are too big in the waist or short-waist-ed. Length for my long legs was JUST long enough, any shorter would have been risky!

Tall girls, it was not too short!
This dress looked great despite it being a little too big in the waist on top of being a bit short waist-ed. I wish I would have gotten a size down as my backup size. Like other girls said, the arms were snug and if I had gotten a 4 maybe they would have been super snug, but with a poofy dress like this one I would have loved for it to be tighter in the waist. It is a problem tall girls have. I was very scared that it would be too short but it was not short whatsoever. It was really only a few inches above my knees and I was wearing 4" heels. I'm wondering if they have made it longer since it first came out or something. Anyway, I loved this dress and can't wait to rent a similar style in the future.

Did nothing for me!
I am a D cup and this did not change my bust at all. I even applied medical-grade skin adhesive to help it stick but after I pulled up my breasts and secured it high on my chest they just fell back down when I let go! I'm sure it would work better for someone with a smaller bust. I've never had luck with alternative bras but I figured I would give it a shot!

So-so, runs large.
I rented this as a backup to another style ordered. It was definitely too big so I can't make the best judgement on it but the smaller size was not available. I rented the IT size 44 which should be a US 6 but it was baggy on me. I would have like to see what the smaller size would have looked like because it seems like it would have been a flattering fit for my shape and height.

Tall girls, don't be scared!
I am 5'11" and used to having to wear dresses that are on the shorter side. I was a little nervous about taking a chance on this one since it is described as short/mini but I had to try! I felt comfortable with the length but you can make your judgement based on the pictures. I chose the 6 instead of the 8 because it is better to have this dress be form fitting so it doesn't move around too much. The dress was more of a nude/bone color with a silver design. I wore heels that were nude linen with gold thread and it was far enough away from the dress that it didn't look bad. Silver or plain nude would have been great but nothing else I had was appropriate for a beachy wedding in June. When I posed, the back of the dress did tend to come away from my skin but it easily could have been taped. I have a fairly large chest and finagled some stretchy medical tape to just barely give myself a lift. I never felt as if anything was falling out and I would love to wear this dress again!
