Perfect day to night work dress
This dress was gorgeous, I wish I could have kept it! The shape is flattering and forgiving. The L was slightly large, but even still the waist was cinched enough that it still looked great. Lots of compliments on both the color and the shape!

Classic, beautiful color.
This dress was really gorgeous. I wore this as a bridesmaid to my friend's wedding who allowed us to pick any red dress of our choice. I took a gamble by only ordering one size, and may have preferred to size up, but to be fair I'm often between an 8/10 and this fit well albeit a little tight around the chest. The length and style is very classic and great for a wedding when you have to interact with family and friends alike, and still comfortable enough to dance! Would buy if I could.

Elegant
This dress is gorgeous. Conservative enough to wear to work but elegant enough for an evening event. I wore to a wedding rehearsal dinner (original plan was to wear to work and then straight to the dinner). Only thing I didn't like was the length, it felt a bit short (especially with the ruffle) but looked great with high heels. Very stretchy and comfortable. Would love to own!

Fun, stand-out but not too dressy.
I ended up swapping this dress in for a style that didn't fit. I'm usually an 8/10 and would have sized-up had the 10 been available. It was very tight around the chest and though it did close, I felt smashed. However, it still looked great and was comfortable enough to wear throughout the afternoon and evening. I went to a baseball game and dinner and felt both elegant and sporty enough to fit in :)

Festive, great red alternative
I wanted something that would be festive and fun for my cocktail-attire holiday party, and this was exactly that! The dress does run a bit small and the stomach area is quite clingy, so I sized up. Even still, it shows off your curves and the back is gorgeous. Definitely a statement piece and perfect for the holidays or a formal affair. Also a great alternative to wearing red around the holidays. Overall, glad I rented but didn't think it was flattering enough to rent again or consider buying.

Breezy, comfortable
I wore this to a friend's after-wedding brunch. Very comfortable and easy to throw on. The length was a bit awkward to not wear with heels and overall the dress ran a bit big. I read several reviews that the waist was extra fitted but didn't think this was the case. Overall, I liked this a lot for the occasion but probably wouldn't rent again. Wish I had gotten a small.

Classic and flattering
I wore this to my friend's rehearsal dinner and received so many compliments. The shape is very flattering - simple and classic. It is not fitted at the waist, and the V neck is fairly deep. The medium was a little short on me, but the large was too big (and low cut). Overall the dress was easy and comfortable, I wish I could own it!

Showstopper!
Tight fit - especially since there's a cutout around your waist. Am normally an 8 and could have probably sized up to a 12 to give more room around the cutout. Despite that though, the dress is very flattering and received lots of complements! Comfortable and easy to move in.

Flattering and fun
Beautiful dress. The color and cut are flattering and the cut-outs are unexpected and fun while still refined. The skirt has tulle and was larger than expected/appeared in pictures. Decided to size up so the cut-out sections weren't too tight. Was very sad to return!

so many compliments
This dress does run large - The L was baggy in the waist and especially arms. The M was more form fitting - And both slightly pooched out around the bottom seam lines. Otherwise the dress looks great on. The black makes it more forgiving - and though other comments warned against not being able to wear tights, I got away with black tights (the lower cut out just looked like it was cut in half) and wearing a normal (tan) bra with my hair down. I wore this to my own holiday party and have never received more compliments on an outfit. When friends invited me to a new years eve party to meet a potential set up they even chimed in "but you have to wear THAT dress". Sad to return.

I wore this dress for my 23rd birthday and it was absolutely perfect. The fit was great. My biggest worry was that it would be too short and it was not. I did have to use a safety pin because the neck line was too low, but with the safety pin the dress looked great!
