Welcome party
I went to a wedding in NYC and wore this to the welcome party. The small didn’t zip on my postpartum body, so I wore the medium, but it was too big in the bust. Overall, I liked the dress; the fabric was nice and it had pockets! I was a little worried about flashing people! If you didn’t just have a baby, I’m sure it will fit fine!

Lovely detail
I loved that this dress had pockets and the sleeve detail is amazing. It didn’t wow me though. It definitely worked for the formal event I attended though and I felt beautiful. The dress is long, so I would recommend wearing heels. I wore flats.

Great dress for photos!
I wore this dress for professional photos we had taken in front of the capital in Austin. I liked it, but the underwriting in the dress was uncomfortable and I thought stood out in the pictures. Overall, I was happy with how they turned out.

Super Comfortable and Flattering!
Just so you know this dress is definitely an orange/red not a true red. Other than that, the dress was super comfy and flattering. I loved it! The bow detail in the back was icing on the already beautiful cake!

Great dress for Tech graduation!
I loved the way I felt in this dress. I thought at first that it would be too tight and wrinkle easily, but it loosened up after wearing it for a bit and was the perfect length for my graduation gown. You can see everything through it though, so I had to wear spanx for the first time. Definitely get one size up for the backup size!

I lost count of the compliments!
I loved this dress! So many strangers stopped me all night just to say how beautiful my dress was: people on the street, people in the lobby of the hotel, and people I had never met at the party. I wore it to my husband's law school formal event, and I felt like the belle of the ball!

Great for game day!
The reviews had me worried, as they said it may not work for someone without a full bust. However, I was pleasantly surprised. It was a little big in the chest area, but not as much as I was expecting, and I felt it didn't look too big at all. The dress photographed beautifully, and I felt great in it. The pockets and the detail in the back were definite pluses.

Great summer wedding dress!
The fit was a little big and I wore the 0, but mostly in the bust. I just wore a structured bra and it looked great! It was perfect for my sister-in-law's wedding day in Texas. Great to dance in, super comfy, and pockets! I would definitely recommend renting this dress. Though the photo from the wedding is in black and white, it was the perfect pop of color for summer.

Great NYE Dress!
Material was heavy and wonderfully made (did not have to worry about wrinkles or the dress sticking to my hose). I felt like this is a dress that Taylor Swift would love. I paired the dress with black hose, black suede heels, and red lips. The silver detailing was perfect for NYE (as lots of the party props were silver, gold, and black). I wish I could have kept this one! It was super comfy!

Perfect for an outdoor fall wedding in Texas!
I wore this dress for my sister's wedding in October. I was the matron of honor and I received so many compliments on my dress. It fit wonderfully. I was concerned initially about the deep v-neck neckline, but it wasn't a problem at all. I would definitely recommend this dress! Very flattering cut and great material.

This is a beautiful, fun, flattering dress. It can easily be worn at night or during the day. The color is bold and definitely stands out. I loved the back detail and the pockets were a definite plus. I received so many compliments! Loved this dress!

Great for dinner out.
I enjoyed the dress, but it was a little larger than I had anticipated and as a result kind of made me look bigger. It didn't have the "wow" factor I was expecting but it was still a comfortable, beautiful dress.

Perfect for vacation!
The dress was form fitting but very complimentary to my body type. I originally intended to wear stickies with the plunging cut out neckline, but I forgot them, so I wore a teal tank underneath instead and it worked out nicely. I loved this dress and so did everyone else. I received many compliments and my husband wanted me to buy it!

Very comfortable
It was very cold when I wore this to my husband's graduation ceremony from the Airforce, so the thick material of this dress was greatly appreciated. I wore it with black tights. I appreciated that it had blue and black (it matched my black tights and coat, but still supported the boys in blue). The blue however kind of blended in with the black in pictures as you can see. The cut of the dress was beautiful and I did receive lots of compliments.

I received so many compliments!
I rented three dresses for my husband's ceremonies for his airforce graduation (three different events over three days). I thought this would be my least favorite but it was actually the one I loved the most! I hated to send it back and even looked into buying it online! The fabric is thick so it is great for winter. The dress was super comfortable and I felt completely at home in it. I received SO many compliments and felt great!

Great color for husband's Airforce graduation
The opening at the top of the dress wasn't as flattering as I had hoped. The color was beautiful, but it ended up being freezing at the graduation and I had to wear a coat the entire time. The dress looked kind of funky with my coat, so I wore the coat closed.

I get free shipping, free dress insurance, and a free extra size. So when I rent a $30 dress, it really is just $30 with tax. Definitely pays for itself.

Perfect dress for formal event
Beautiful dress, photographed well, only cons were it was large in the bust for me, and the shoulders of the dress move around a bit. Not the most comfortable, but was very happy with the photos and compliments. The back detail was a huge hit.

Loved this dress! Received compliments everywhere we went in Gruene that day. Love the bow detail in the back and the lace detail. The only downside was it was a little big in the bust, but you definitely couldn't tell in the pictures. It photographed beautifully!

Great dress! Perfect for seeing Wicked the musical!
Loved this dress! Very comfortable and flattering. The only drawback is you can't raise your arms up too high or the already short dress hikes wayyy up. I wore black tights and soffe shorts underneath and was very comfortable. I received many compliments and felt great all night long. Perfect for a night on the town!

This dress was okay. Definitely not a favorite.
The dress clung to my legs making it slightly uncomfortable. I also wore this dress when it was cold outside, which proved to be a bad decision.
