Sexy chic
Don't rent this dress if you are modest! The long sleeves and length were the perfect balance to the deep V and high leg slit. A perfect celebratory fall intimate wedding guest dress. I wear a 32G for reference.

Carroll Velvet Dress
YUMI KIM
Size Worn: LR
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 156lbs
Bust: 32G
Outdoor Southern Wedding
CONS: The straps were really long. I have a very long torso and a large chest so despite reading those reviews I thought it wouldn't be a problem for me. I felt myself pulling it up a lot. I tried to pin it to my strapless bra on the inside but that's didn't really help. Could have worn the 8 if the dress had stretch or my chest were smaller. PROS: Perfect for an outdoor Southern wedding. TONS of compliments from the young and old. It was otherwise comfortable. Very breathable.

Stretchy and comfortable
Got this as a backup. First dress was tight with no give. Was hesitant because I couldn't wear a bra with this, but the stretchy fabric somehow supported my 32G's (I won't say they were perky, but it was comfortable). Felt comfortable all night.

Felt like a princess!
This dress exceeded my expectations. I was nervous about how fitted it would be but it was wonderful! Fabric is thick. Dress looks like a million bucks. SO comfortable and stretchy. I am wearing Spanx underneath. I opted to wear a bra hooked in the back to create a "racerback" look. The straps did poke out a little in the front, but it was worth it for me. I wear a 32G, 153 pounds, 5'5", normally a 6/28 in pants, a M/8 in shirts/blouses, long torso and short legs for my body. I am wearing 3 inch heels and the length of the 8 Regular was perfect. I figured the top of this dress would be tight enough to go braless like some of the ladies had mentioned, but this was not the case for me! I need support and the strapless I had made me look "tubular" for lack of a better term. I did wonder if the 6 would have been a better backup size, but I changed last minute to a 10 for backup which was a mistake. Either way, the 8 worked out really well!! This dress is really a fuchsia/hot purple in my mind rather than pink. It was spectacular to wear!! I received compliments all night and people could not believe I had rented this beauty!!! So worth the splurge for a fun wedding celebration!

Flirty and fun!
This dress was comfortable for an all day wedding-- from ceremony to the after party! I was even stopped on the street by strangers asking where I got this dress and I happily said Rent the Runway! Danced all night!! I did wear small shorts under as it is quite flippy and I didn't want a wardrobe mishap. For size comparison I am 5'5" size 6 pant or 28-29. M or size 8 tops. 32G US bra size. I am wore a regular bra without difficulty!! Great color and so comfy.

Classy, flirty, and fun!
This dress was the perfect fit! As someone who has a larger chest in proportion to the rest of my frame finding a dress that fits everywhere is a challenge. I am a size 28/29 in jeans and a 6 or 8 in dress pants. As far as tops go, if it doesn't have any stretch or buttons up the front I HAVE to get a large because I am a 34FF. This dress fit perfectly around my waist and zipped up with no problem over my chest while not making it uncomfortably tight-- a miracle! It fell about 3 inches above my knees and was an easy fun look to either dress up or dress down. I wore it to an outdoor summer wedding and it was perfect! GET THIS DRESS!
