SUPER SHORT.
I don't consider myself that tall, I'm almost 5'5" - and this dress was borderline too short. If I raised my arms... my entire butt would be on display. I have a big chest, so I didn't really think it was "boxy" - it's a shift dress, it's not supposed to be form fitting. I had no problems with the arms being tight as others had reviewed. Also didn't think the material was overly stiff, it's just a thicker fabric. It was a cool dress, not something I'd own but fun for a night. Would recommend for shorter ladies.

Really comfortable, flattering dress. Easy to wear.
This dress runs LARGE. I had to get a smaller size overnighted. I originally ordered my regular size despite the reviews that it ran large, because I had ordered down on another dress based on reviews and it didn't fit in my chest. This dress I had plenty of room in the 8, I could've probably zipped myself into a 6 but it most likely would not have been flattering ;) It was not very long, I had planned on wearing flats anyway but couldn't have worn heels. It had a LITTLE train which was really cute. The fabric is thick and heavy, very flattering. I'd rent this one again.

It was different.
Rented this for my bridal shower. I didn't want to wear lace or anything super princessy, and didn't want to commit to buying a white dress I'd never wear again. The fit was a little weird, and I ended up bringing the wrong size to my makeup appointment and the 8 would've fit better. (The top was a little tight but the bottom looks better fitted.) Wasn't crazy about the fabric, it's like a cotton and the color was a little off-white. If you're not traditional, this is a fun dress.

Totally unique.
Want to own this despite the fact it's so unique. I wore it to my bridal shower and it definitely packed the right punch I was looking for. It seems huge at first, but when you're wearing it, it's perfect.

BLING BLING
Loved these earrings. They were an add on for $5, decided to give them a shot. I ended up wearing the earrings I originally picked for my dress, but I LOVED these. Would love to own them. Clip on but not that uncomfortable. Great for girls with short hair.

Added some color to a LBD.
Great necklace, wish I could've kept it. I ordered thinking I was going to wear a blue dress, still worked with black.

Great necklace to spice up an outfit.
Easy to wear, lightweight. It's definitely a yellow gold so be careful if trying to match to metallic heels. Would've liked to keep it!

Great clutch- versatile!
Was able to use this for both the rehearsal dinner and wedding. Held just enough. Didn't want to send it back- definitely really versatile and classy. Would love to own.

Beautiful!
I rented these to wear with the red Badgley Mischka chiffon gown for a black tie wedding, along with a necklace, but together they were too much and I ended up only wearing the necklace. They were too beautiful to not wear though, so I ended up wearing them to the rehearsal dinner. Perfect! Loved them. Not too big (and the weight was fine) but definitely a nice amount of bling.

Showstopper! Will definitely rent again.
Rented for a NYE wedding. The dress was very long- I was planning on wearing flats but ended up wearing 3 inch heels and it was still a little long. The chest was very big also, normally dresses run a little small for me but I ended up wearing a padded bra to ensure it stayed up. Overall very comfortable though, and I felt great. Many compliments on the overall look, the red is a beautiful choice when you don't want to blend in in a sea of black. Very happy with the experience, especially since I hate dress shopping!

Compliments all night! It was a standout look.
The necklace was a great compliment to the red chiffon Faye Badgley Mischka dress for a NYE wedding. Perfect amount of bling and much nicer than I would've $pent money buying!

My back up dress!
This dress was way too short, I would have to choose between my ankles or chest being showcased, and I'm not into either (and I think public nudity is illegal) so I wore my back up - which happened to also be by Badgley Mischka yet the 4R fit perfectly and if anything was too long. I also felt like a sausage in this dress, the ruching did not help.
