Spectacular party dress!
Wore this to a holiday wedding and felt amazing and so festive! Very flattering, comfortable and fun to wear. I got compliments all night, many from strangers! I'm 5'6" and wore 2" inch heels - glad I got the long based on other reviews. It was still a hair short in front but worked fine.

A nice surprise!
This was a randomly selected replacement order - I wouldn't usually have picked this style and didn't think it looked very flattering in the model photos, but I was pleasantly surprised! The only fitted part was the waist and was otherwise flowy and light. I have a longer torso so it worked ok, but if you have a shorter one, the waist might not hit in quite the right place and end up with baggy material up top. Back too low for a bra, so sticky bra worked well for me.

Stunning! So elegant and fun
I felt amazing in this dress! It was an emergency replacement when my first choice wasn't delivered and I ended up super happy with it. Super light and flowy, comfortable, fun for dancing, and so many compliments! The bust was a little big for me so I secured with fashion tape and was good to go. Also a little long in the back - I'm 5'6 and wore 4 inch wedges and still stepped on it a bit while dancing or on stairs. Would definitely rent again!

Lovely dress - runs small!
I usually wear a 2, and after reading the reviews I went with the 4 but it was still too small! Fit through the chest but hips were so tight I couldn't sit down so had to go with another option. Too bad because it was a gorgeous dress! Great color, flattering cut, elegant but fun.

Great dress, runs small!
I usually wear a 2, and after reading reviews about sizing up I ordered the 4. It was still too small - the 6 might have worked. Too bad because it was a lovely dress - great color, flattering cut.

Classy and sexy
Beautiful dress! The substantial (and just a tad stretchy) fabric makes it really form fitting and flattering. You can tell it's a very nice quality material and cut. It was a little loose across the stomach and bunched a bit, so I wore spanx to smooth things out. Looked great, but made it pretty warm with the heavy fabric and extra layer. Overall, the shape is fun and classic at the same time, and the color is really eye-catching!

Gorgeous, flattering, and fun!
Tons of compliments on this one. Fit beautifully, fabric flowed nicely while walking and dancing, and it was quite comfortable. As others mentioned, the regular is quite long - I'm 5'6" and wore 3.5" heels. I would have rented a XSP if it had been available, but a little fabric tape on the hem made it so I wouldn't trip. The hem was also a bit frayed and discolored from previous wears. I would definitely rent again!

Fun party dress
Wore this fun, flirty dress to an outdoor wedding. Flattering silhouette, comfortable, nice light fabric for a summery event. Ended up wearing a size down from my usual, so it may run a little large. My particular dress had a defective zipper - made it work with some help but the second dress was fine, so probably just a fluke.

Fun and flattering spring dress
Lovely spring dress with pretty pattern and flirty silhouette. And pockets!! Material is not stretchy and a bit on the heavier side so it would be hot in the summer months but was perfect for a spring wedding. It is fairly low cut in front.
